I'm going In-Depth to preview every single shooter included. M2 went back to the original Toaplan Arcade PCBs to create perfect modern ports of the original games for their Toaplan Arcade Garage series. Also included will be the home console ports of Tiger-Heli and Twin Cobra on the Mega Drive / Genesis, PC Engine, and NES / Famicom. In-Depth details and differences between every version with this ultimate comparison. Is the Toaplan Tiger Heli Shoot Em Up Collection worth the price? Is this collection of shmups for you?
Tiger-Heli is historic with many firsts for the genre. Kyukyoku Tiger aka Twin Cobra followed suit with STG firsts of it's own. Find out what these games pioneered, and what made them one of Toaplan's best selling STGs, including interviews with Toaplan developers for unique insight into how they came to be. And what made Twin Cobra one of their first truly great shoot em ups. We are lucky to have M2 making such great releases for both the retro gaming and shmup community.
