Hi there!

I think Choplifter is the prototype of a game that is not portable to the VCS.

All action is concentrated on a single scannline. The buildings, the people to rescue, your shots, the tanks shots, even your own chopper can occupy the same horizontal space and all of that at once.

Any port would either have to flicker worse than Wizard of War, or the gameplay would have to be seriously crippled.

Greetings,
Manuel
