Here, move left to right through feudal Japan settings (bamboo forests, over bridges, clearings, villages, etc.) while dealing with various enemies that will kill you with one blow! And no continues either! You have overhead strikes or low, rising strikes with your sword to dispatch your enemies with (fortunately they only take one blow as well). You can also duck or jump by pressing down or up on the joystick, respectively.Sauro

Schmeiser Robo
1993
Schmeiser Robo plays much like other 2D versus fighting games of its era, with characters battling in best-two-out-of-three matches against the CPU or another player. It uses an 8-way joystick and three buttons (punch, kick, and guard), introducing one of the earliest dedicated guard buttons in the genre. Unlike typical fighting games, the guard button allows movement even when pressed repeatedly, though it does not block attacks. It also supports advanced defensive and offensive options including short hops, air-guarding, parrying (early form of guard-canceling), counter-attacking, and rush-attacksScrew Loose

Performan
1985
Performan was Toaplan's first shooter, and it's certainly not what one would expect from them, especially when looking at some of their later games. It's actually a strange, overhead shooter much like Robotron. The star is the titular Performan, a native in a jungle that wears a huge mask, who's being stalked by a squadron of drill-wielding robots. He must stop them using balls of energy, his ability to dig underground, and bombs that are set up in every level. He can also go into Power Mode by shooting ghosts that randomly appear, which turns him green and invincible for a short time. Needless to say, Performan is a very weird, very hard game. There are 99 levels and the game loops endlessly, as typical of most early arcade games. The main problem with Performan is that he's far too weak to survive for long. He can't move quickly, his shots are slow, and he can only have one shot on screen at a time, which can easily be dodged. The bombs are an easy way to get rid of two or maybe three at a time, but this usuallyPhantom II

Pitcher can throw Fast Ball, Curve, Slider or Change Up. Better scores points for Home Run, Triple, Double or Single. A Strike scores a point for the other team.
