    The key to enjoying Operation Wolf is using a zapper with a softer trigger, some of them are stiffer than others. And not just that but you can fire the gun before going “full click”, so it’s easy to fire off several shots per second without experiencing the typical zapper fatigue. Not the best zapper game; but it’s not that bad.

    When my parents bought me an nes back in the day, operation wolf was one of the games the got me first. My mom would go to a laundromat and they had the arcade there so she thought I’d like the nes port. The only reason I played the arcade version was because it was the only thing to occupy me other than watch clothes spinning.

      My favorite NES composer. Found out about him back in '93 first time I played Overlord myself. That title screen track is great. Easily the best part of the game.

    Operation wolf would have been so much better if they would have let you have automatic fire out of the light gun. It was a great arcade game. That and t2 were the best shooters. And also virtua cop but only if you dual wielded the pistols. Made that game way more fun.

    It may not be arcade perfect but I think Operation Wolf is ok. Definitely playable but it can be tricky to aim using the d-pad as you said. The problem is you tend to run out of ammo and then just have to wait for more to appear while you continue to take damage. I do have fond memories of playing this game with a friend so there is some nostalgia here.
    That crappy Overlord label...yeah that's very common with cartridges made in the US. Some of the later release LJN and Acclaim games have this problem as well. They used cheaper materials and even went as far as to make their own PCB's. It can be hard to find one in nice condition.
