Perhaps better named Basic One, Retro One is a horizontally scrolling shooter that makes Aegis Wing look innovative. While I do favor the speedier ship control, weapon charging system and wave structure of Retro One, I can’t see spending 400 points on it – especially considering you could get a shooter like Space Giraffe for the same price, or Aegis Wing for free.

This title was 400 points at the time of writing this review but has since been reduced to 80 Points.

To be fair Aegis Wing is overpriced
Aegis Wing is actually somewhat entertaining with multiple players. It’s just single player that is total bollocks.
Haha Ageis Wing. That game isnt actually available in europe unless you do some nifty false silver accounting :O
Oh well. At least Yaris isnt stinking up our live arcade at least.
I actually put the effort in to do that too.
I’m such an idiot at times.
