Played this for the first time yesterday. Honestly, I was getting a little bored with the first half. However the 2nd half was really a surprise, where it almost seems like a totally different game. Overall a good game and a fun shooter.
Yah, first half by Capcom, 2nd half by Naxat.
In the credits, you will see both Mobi-Chan (from Capcom's sidearms) and Kid Dracula (Naxat's mascot), wave bye to the player.
Thanks, as I didn't know exactly who the characters at the end were.
I have never been able to get into any of the 194x games. Are they WW2 themed throughout? Does it get crazier if you get further, like the introduction of aliens or something else? I definitely like science fiction themed and parody style shooters a little more usually. Same reason I never got into the Raiden series.
I personally like the WW2 themes of the 194x shooters. I found a great deal of joy sending Yamato to the bottom in 1943. The Strikers series was kickass; a German aircraft carrier and a Japanese flying boat turn into cool looking mechs with insane attacks.
Mechs count as sci-fi! I admit I never played past level 2 of 1943 Kai from lack of interest, I was just checking it out while I was looking at Supergrafx games. Any additions to that version of the game?
1941 is just a straight port, and I don't think it would be worth $500, when you can just get it on PS2.
Oh you're right, that was 1941. I would never spend $500 on a single game, except maybe a pinball table and that's even if I could get it for that cheap!
1941 for the Supergrafx is a pretty pricey game ($150-$200) but I don't think it's no where near $500. Unless the $500 also includes the cost of a Supergrafx system that's complete in the box.
I do agree it's probably not a game that's worth buying for the price it commands.
