Area 88, better known outside Japan as UN Squadron, is arguably one of the best shoot ’em ups Capcom produced. Area 88 was a reasonably popular manga series in Japan, involving ace pilot Shin Kazama, who is signed up to a mercenary by his supposed best friend, who had eyes on Shin’s bride-to-be. Shin is on a 3 year contract, and must either serve out the term or buy out the $1.5 million contract by becoming a the top pilot.
