Pilotwings cartridge for Super Nintendo (SNES). A launch title for the console, it helped demonstrate the SNES's Mode 7 graphics capabilities, and it has a more serious tone compared to Pilotwings 64, with a rather dry presentation of the player going through flight school to earn their license to pilot various vehicles, such a light plane, a rocket belt, and a hang glider, with skydiving mixed in as well. Then the game gets hardcore when you have to fly a military helicopter to rescue your flight instructors from terrorists. No, seriously, that's what happens!
Another #RandomGameSaturday and this week it's the original Pilotwings for SNES! A launch title that showcased the SNES's Mode 7 capabilities, this game has a drier, more serious vibe compared to the chill attitude of its N64 sequel. #retro #retrogaming #gaming #snes #supernintendo #pilotwings
