M2 is back with the Toaplan Ultimate Tiger Shoot Em Up Collection on Nintendo Switch and PS4, featuring Twin Cobra / Kyukyoku Tiger and Tiger Heli. I’m going In-Depth to preview every single shooter included. M2 went back to the original Toaplan Arcade PCBs to create perfect ports of the original games. Also included will be the home console ports of Tiger-Heli and Twin Cobra on the Mega Drive / Genesis, PC Engine, and NES / Famicom. Details and differences between every version with this ultimate comparison. Is the Toaplan Shoot Em Up Collection worth the price?
Tiger-Heli is historic with many firsts for the genre. Kyukyoku Tiger aka Twin Cobra followed suit with STG firsts of it’s own. Find out what these games pioneered, and what made them one of Toaplan’s best selling STGs. Interviews with Toaplan developers for unique insight into how they came to be. And what made Twin Cobra one of their first truly great shoot em ups. We are lucky to have M2 making such great releases for both the retro gaming and shmup community and the Tiger Heli Ultimate Shoot Em Up Collection is their first release!
