MiSTer FPGA - Jackal [1cc] / NES (Famicom)
0A great NES port of the Konami arcade classic, Jackal. I played this with a friend quite a bit when I was younger but never beat the game. This is my first time clearing it and I managed to get a 1cc also. The Saturn controller was perfect for the 8 way movement in this game. Give it a try if you're a fan of run and gun shooters like MERCs, Commando, or Shock Troopers. It's a lot of fun, especially with two players. For a modern take on the genre, there's also Renegade Ops on Steam, PS3, or X360. That one has split screen two player co-op and 4 player online co-op.
I included timestamps in case you want to hear the different stage themes in this hype Konami soundtrack.
