One Quarter One Play - R-Type
4This week I borrowed Mr. Peabody’s WABAC machine, and traveled to the year 1987.
Music wise; Billboard’s top pop hits were “Walk Like an Egyptian” by The Bangles, “Alone” by Heart, “Shake You Down” by Gregory Abbott, and “I Wanna Dance with Somebody” by Whitney Houston.
It was a good year for movies. In 1987 I caught Lethal Weapon, Predator, Throw Momma From the Train, The Running Man, A Nightmare on Elm Street 3, and Robocop.
This is also the year that IREM released their first 16-bit arcade game, R-Type. So, click the headline to learn more about this game, and see how far I get on one quarter with no prior practice rounds.
This week I play one of my favorite arcade games of all time, R-Type. R-Type was developed, and published to arcades in Japan by IREM. Nintendo of America did the publishing for the U.S. arcade release. http://evilavatar.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2545820#post2545820
