| history | Aero Fighters 2 (c) 1994 Video System. The first sequel to the superb vertically scrolling shoot-em-up "Aero Fighters", players once again take control of a Jet fighter aircraft and take to the skies to destroy enemy jets, boats, helicopters, gun emplacements and huge end-of-level bosses. The graphics are every bit as accomplished as those of the prequel and the game delivers a good level of challenge. The end-of-level bosses change from game-to-game; a nice touch that adds variety to an already solid game. Players can choose to play as any one of eight different fighter pilots, each of which pilots a different jet : * American F-117A Nighthawk piloted by Robo-Keaton. * American A-10 Thunderbolt II piloted by Mao Mao. * Japanese Fighter-Support X piloted by Hien. * Japanese F-15 Eagle piloted by Captain Silver. * International F-14 Tomcat piloted by Cindy and Ellen. * International YF-23 Black Widow II piloted by Spanky. * French Rafale piloted by Steve. * British Sea Harrier FRS2 piloted by Bobby. - TECHNICAL - SNK Neo-Geo MVS hardware Game ID : 0075 Main CPU : 68000 (@ 12 Mhz) Sound CPU : Z80 (@ 4 Mhz) Sound Chips : YM2610 (@ 8 Mhz) Screen orientation : Horizontal Video resolution : 320 x 224 pixels Screen refresh : 59.19 Hz Palette colors : 4096 Players : 2 Control : 8-way joystick Buttons : 2 => [A] Main shot, [B] Special weapon - TRIVIA - Released in July 1994.
