What a happy coincidence. I suddenly had remembered this game and wanted to see all the versions of it. And here it is, your video from just two weeks ago. Thanks.
@@GamingHistorySource If there were only three ports you've missed so far, they would to have to be the US version for the C64 titled Sky Shark, which is somewhat based on the NES version, the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 versions found on the Toaplan Shooting Garage collection titled Flying Fire Shark, and the Evercade version found on the Toaplan Arcade 1 cartridge.
Hey Gaming History Source! I just want to say happy 10 years of your original Pac-Man Lets Compare video! To celebrate, can you do Dragon Buster and Xevious next?
Uh... or Probably a 3rd remake of let's compare dig dug. He didn't have the Sharp X1 version, the PC-88SR version, the PC-6001mkII version, the J2me version (Dig Dug Deluxe Classic and Deluxe), or the Fujitsu FM-77AV version. I actually have the FM-77AV Version of Dig Dug.
Y'know, I was watching that Sharp 68000 version and thinking, "This looks fantastic... if only it was zoomed out a little more..." and then the FM Towns version comes on and it's exactly that (only with some distracting sprite flickering). Both versions look almost as good as the arcade version, though.
DOS looks decent but what about the main sprite, accelerates too fast? CPC is a ZX port like the Amiga from the ST. I like the ZX version a lot but TI seems to be the winner here.
ZX- adequate for the machine capabilities, but thats very poor overall. CPC - so slow and jerky. MS-DOS: not bad, the palette is weird. C64- playable, graphics could have been better for 87. TI99 - nice surprize.
Sorry I missed the premiere folks. Had a lot going on here. Hope you enjoyed ! :)
What amazing music FM Towns has! Sounds awesome! So funky and clear improved!!
It's maddening to hear a great NES track covered by that sfx

I'm glad it met your needs. :)

Thank you ! :)
I'm looking forward to this!
Great video, i loved Flying Shark on my ATARI ST ☺
Had the demo of this on my C64. Great game (well that one level anyway)
Yeah me too and I’ll say the C64 looked like a pretty good version compared to some of the others.
Sickest NES soundtrack, Tim Follin was a musical genius, and thank goodness music continues when paused lol
@HHR Haha right? Enough with the turbo already
A great but utterly balls-hard schmup. Also super nice to have this channel back!
Sound is suffering on most. I would enjoy most of them back in the day.
More great stuff per usual.
I guess I could have lived with a few of these ports but some.... no way... it would be more fun to do yard work as a kid.
ah man, early tim follin on the NES soundtrack. what a master!

My favorite of all is the FM Towns one. Arcade perfect graphics, but superior BGM. The TI99 one looks and sounds amazingly good.
🎵Flying Shark, do do do do do do, Flying Shark, do do do do do do, Flying Shark, do do do do do do, Flying Shark.🎵
All the versions look good this time for a change.
Nes and 64 versions are great, respect for that Texas version as well.
For some reason I was sure this game was also on the Genesis, but I must have mixed it up with Fire Shark.
good vid just supported u
Thankyou ! :)
@@GamingHistorySource no prob be sure to support me back
00:51 I think this is the fire button...
**Drops bomb**

1. Arcade
2. Genesis / Mega Drive
3. Mega Drive ( Tatsujin )
4. Android ( Truxton Classic )
5. PC Engine ( Tatsujin )
6. Windows / Steam
7. Evercade ( Toaplan Arcade 1 )

Arcade 10/10
Zx Spectrum 2/10
Amstrad 2/10
C64 5/10
MS-DOS 4/10
Atari ST 6/10
Amiga 7/10
Sharp x68000 10/10
Fm Towns 9/10
But harsh on the old Speccy there! 😄
I used to play the C64 version until my thumb couldn't press the trigger anymore on that stupid old Atari 2600 joystick
Twin Cobra?

@@GamingHistorySource oh.... okay.
I meant that games are somewhat similar.

Flashback
Wow the NES version just grates on you. 😖
