I'm wondering if there is a 'Flight Simulater' for Nintendo besides
a TOPGUN type game? I have never played TOPGUN so I'm not sure if
it's what I want i.e. something real! (or close to it) We've looked
into getting the "FLIGHT" game off the conference but don't have
the right stuff (pun intended) or disk space. I'd like something
challenging as far as piloting an aircraft or am I better off working
with a PC?
Lookin to spend another $50
Thanks,
BJ

There is no flight simulator for Nintendo that I have seen or heard of.
Sega has one, but I have never tried it.
I suppose they could make a halfway decent flight simulator, but you
really need more controls. Computer versions have controls for
raising/lowering gear, starting engines, ailerons, rudder, flaps, zoom
and viewpoint, setting radio frequency, and so on.

| 245.2 | Word of Mouth reccomendation for Sega.... | SPIKED::SWEENEY | Thu Mar 30 1989 13:43 | 12 | |
My brother has a Sega and just bought their flight simulator tape (Fighting Falcon is that the name?) I haven't seen it yet, but he reccommends it highly. He says it beats the heck out of Top Gun (what wouldn't!). In the beginning there are only a few bad guys to fight and they're easy to missle lock on and shoot down. But as you go along there are many more bad guys and they pull all kinds of nasty ariel stunt. ie the Top Gun movie manuever of brakes, pull up quick, and then quickly nose down to lock onto your pursuer. My is currently at a level where it's you against 10-12 bad guys. Almost makes me wish I had a Sega too! tom | |||||

It is not a tape; it is a card.
