Shock Troopers – ACA NEOGEO (Switch NSP)

Shock Troopers may not add much to the top-down run-and-gun genre but it’s enjoyable while it lasts. The visuals weren’t particularly awe-inspiring back in 1997, but everything moves at a slick pace and neat elements of humour prevent things from becoming too serious. In single player you might get a week or so of play out of this, but with two people involved it becomes a lot more appealing – and thanks to those detachable Joy-Cons, co-op sessions are easy to arrange. Shock Troopers 2nd Squad may be considered the superior release, but the original is still worth checking out if you like your old-school arcade blasters.
