The gameplay is not quite as unforgiving as Gradius or R Type, it gives you more opportunities to succeed than most shooters. You can choose how you go about each mission with special weapons, but balances out by having you purchase them. Any leftover specials at the end of a mission is actually paid back to you, yet if you die, you lose the money you paid as well as the weapons. There's two difficulty modes, 3 different pilots, 8 planes to upgrade to, and at least 10 or 11 different weapons. It really creates a lot of replay value. This is one of those games that watching game play videos will help a lot in deciding if it's your kind of game. For shmup fans, I'm confident you'll love this one of you have not played it before!

I never knew one of my favorite arcade games was on SNES. Back in the day the quarters dropped like crazy for this two player game that lit up the skies, albeit on a well lit screen. With many different weapons to buy, you pilot a plane as one of three mercenary pilots and roast the baddies from a desert outpost called Area-88. Several scenarios await, from on high in the clouds, through canyons, around a palace, and of course, the obligatory enemy military base. The Super Nintendo version of this game is very good, with features not found in the original arcade version, mainly the piloting of different kinds of planes, each with their own attributes and weapon systems capabilities. What is missing from this, a rather glaring omission, is two player mode, along with one of the pilots lacking his two-way vulcan cannon, which made him a great choice for beginners. Other than that the adaptation is terrific, and the game is thoroughly enjoyable if you like shooters. The game is pretty hard, but you develop some intuition and before you know it, you've made it. The music is excellent, a product of its time, and the controls are fairly smooth. One of the best five shooters for SNES, easily. Check it out!Vollständige Rezension lesen

The SNES had a whole library of 2D sidescrolling shooters: Gradius 3, Darius Twin, Raiden Trad, Super R-Type, the list goes on! But one of the best is U.N. Squadron. I know it looks like a ridiculous premise. You're an anime character and you select your plane and weaponry load-out, then you go to one of many different approaching enemy fleets and pwn them! The controls are very good, but this game has a fairly difficult learning curve. As a result you may have to go back to your load-out several times, but to your credit this will also help you out by letting you buy better and more powerful arms for your plane. In short, this game is damn hard. Again though, if you can get the hand of the learning curve, the rewards for progressing in this game make the game even more and more fun as you go along. U.N. Squadron is one of the best 2D shooters of all time, and yes I would dare say it's better than Ikaruga. In any case.. it's definitely easier!Vollständige Rezension lesen
Pros: Multiple Weapon, Aircraft, and Character Variants; Challenging but not Difficult Cons: Single Player Only; No Ability to Save Games Capcom created a masterpiece in this port of the 1988 game "Area 88". There is plenty of game play action, plenty of levels, and enough fun to keep the player involved for hours. Controls are responsive and feel exactly as they should. The greatest oversight of this game is that the developer overlooked the ability to save progress during game play. While it is not implausible to finish the game in one evening, it can be a nuisance if one would rather play for shorter periods of time. Overall, this game gets a 5/5. The play is paced well, and it is highly addictive. For any fan of the genre, and for most gamers in general, this is a must have game.
Fun game overall and challenging. There are lots of play options so it keeps a good amount of variety. Sometimes it gets the dreaded SNES slowdown when there's a lot going on on the screen but it's not enough to discourage me from playing it. Overall a fun game at a good price.
