About The Game

This classic vertically-scrolling shoot 'em up is perhaps Capcom's finest moment in the pre-Street Fighter era.

Spawning a million clones and re-appearing throughout the history of gaming, 1942's biplane action needs no introduction. And now, for the first time on the Wii, the original and best version.
