Item Description
Few NES moments produced as many sweaty palms as lining up an F-14 Tomcat with the deck of an aircraft carrier, easing off the throttle and hoping for the best. Konami's Top Gun, based on the 1986 film and also issued as a VS. System arcade game, was a full-blown hit on the NES, selling around two million copies.
The view is from the cockpit, with altitude, airspeed, radar and fuel readouts framing the action as MiGs sweep in. Your machine gun never runs dry, but missiles do the real work, and you pick from three types, each with its own strengths. Four missions escalate from dogfights against enemy fighters to strikes on heavily defended targets, building to a raid on a space shuttle.
Then come the parts everyone remembers. Longer sorties call for mid-air refueling, carefully lining the Tomcat up behind a tanker while the fuel gauge drops. Every flight ends with a carrier landing that has to be lined up just right, and a sloppy approach costs you a plane. With so little margin for error, Top Gun earned its reputation as one of the toughest flight games on the console.
That challenge is a big part of its charm today. It is a slice of late-'80s movie-license excitement, and the refueling and landing sequences still feel unlike anything else in the NES library. Konami followed it with Top Gun: The Second Mission, but this is the original sortie, the cartridge that put an F-14 in millions of living rooms.
