About This Game
Originally released in arcades in 1985, Gun.Smoke was ported to the NES in 1988 with enhanced graphics and additional gameplay elements. The NES version introduced a health system absent in the arcade original.
The game is notable for its innovative control scheme - players can shoot in eight directions while moving independently, a rare feature for NES games of the era.
With its catchy Western soundtrack and challenging gameplay, Gun.Smoke became a cult classic and is considered one of Capcom's most unique NES titles.
