Name this NES game

Post by ninjainspandex »

Trying to remember an NES game from my childhood where you play as a soldier who stays at the bottom of the screen and shoots in sort of an isometric view where enemies come from the left or right and the screen stays static. I remember blowing up walls and finding like machine gun upgrades that you need to shoot to upgrade. Driving me nuts trying to figure out what it was.

nope it was like a vietnam era game at first I thought it might of been a rambo game but none seemed to have a behind the player perspective. keep in mind the screen stays static your player only moves from side to side.

Just to clarify, the view is somewhat like this right?

Exed Exes is correct!!!!! Haha I was trying to find it by playing through my full romset looking for games that sound vietnam warlike, I passed right over Cabal. Thank you! I remember renting that game and really enjoying it but was too young to remember the name.

Never heard of this. It looks like an even cruder version of NES Punisher.

It's a port of an arcade game by TAD Corporation. Rare developed it for the NES. It's great.

BAHAHA!!! I love the way your soldier dances off the screen when you beat a board, games not that bad. At least this is a cheap one to add to my collection for nostalgia. PS can someone make me a gif of that soldier dancing off into the distance?? that would be an awesome avatar.
