It’s time to take to the skies in probably my most faviorite shooter from Psikyo. This is Gunbird on this week’s Battle of the Ports.

The Saturn is not a system you think about when it comes to digital Pinball, but there are in fact quite a few pinball games on the System. Here we go with every Sega Saturn Pinball game ranked!

A classic that started life on the Speccy of all things.
But is it any good?

That running animation is so impressive for the time. Easy to see why people would pick up Trantor even if the gameplay ain’t so great.

Nick Bruty and Dave Perry… graphics pioneers in those days and into the 90’s.

Yeah, it is pretty cool for the age of the game. Justa shame no thought was put in to the actual enemy placement. I mean, Metroid came out a year earlier and this is kind of like that in a vague way so there’s no excuse.

Anyway, new video up today as I go to what is now Japan’s best game store chain.
