This is me, powering through the last dregs of 1987. Ah, I guess these games aren't that bad, especially after The Karate Kid. Still! Better stuff is coming soon. Thanks for bearing with me!
Two final middling releases for 1987, one of which is based on a licensed property. Yeah, you can definitely see the future of the NES shaping up here. Neither Top Gun or BreakThru is the worst game we've seen, but neither can quite make up its mind as to what it wants to be. Is Top Gun a flight sim or an aerial combat game? Is BreakThru a side-scrolling platformer or a shooter? Rather than feeling like brilliant hybrids, these both just seem a bit muddled...
