Product Features

  • The Shark series - Created by legendary Japanese studio Toaplan, is a landmark shoot 'em up series. Flying Shark (1987), which was well received for its simple rules and exquisitely tuned difficulty level, had a tremendous impact on vertical scrolling shoot 'em up games. The sequel Fire Shark (1989), with its screen-filling weaponry, set arcades ablaze with its destructive carnage!
  • For veteran shooters and new pilots - In addition to the authentic "Arcade Mode" which is a faithful recreation of the original's rock-hard gameplay, both titles include a "Super Easy Mode" that allows even genre newcomers to enjoy the games
  • Support functions and intel - The game is packed with a variety of features that help the player. The M2 gadgets displayed on the left and right of the playing field alert the player of enemies appearing from blind spots, the location of hidden features, what the next item will be, and other things that help you improve your chances of surviving the barrage of enemies
  • Be an arcade hero - Includes the popular Arcade Challenge mode from the M2ShotTriggers! Each stage is divided into small areas to enhance your training, and a rewind function to make things even more efficient! With practice comes perfection; a one-credit clear can be yours!
