VGJUNK

Probotector, NES.

A couple of neat-looking bosses from Isolated Warrior (NES).

Metal Slug, Neo Geo.

Ad for the home computer versions of Gryzor, which is what Contra was called here in Europe for a while.

Isolated Warrior, NES.

One from last week’s Isolated Warrior article.

Atomic Runner, Genesis / Megadrive.

At the big VGJunk site today: Max Maverick (our hero) saves the day by walking forwards and shooting things. Sometime he rides a motorcycle, too. Mostly he just falls down holes a lot. It’s Isolated Warrior from the NES, and you can read all about it here!

Sunset Riders, arcade.

And just like with Demon’s Crest, any time I see anything to do with Sunset Riders I’ll end up humming this for hours (and croaking “bury me with my money!” as passers-by).
