Top Gun (NES)

This is one of Konami's best NES titles, and it was a big seller back when it came out from what I know. I was a fan of this game long before I was a fan of the film, and I first played it back in 1998, although that wasn't the first time I had known of its existance. We also used to have the Konami handheld, which I played years before the actual NES game, but it's probably disappeared without a trace from the whereabouts of this entire house. Anyway, yeah, moving on. The game is alot of fun, and it's easier to play than most other flight sims, and that makes it easy to enjoy and get into. Also get a nice little NES-ified version of the Top Gun theme played at the title screen. I never even got into the movie until 2002. But this remains one of my favorite titles from Konami's NES/Famicom library. I also got the japanese version of this game. I also highly recommend "Top Gun:The Second Mission". A bit more challenging, and also really good despite the fact that there WAS NO second Top Gun movie! I also heard this was Konami's first licensed game.
