I remember this being next to impossible as a kid. The whole game was tough, but this was on another level.

My grandpa’s greatest gaming achievement was beating Top Gun: The Second Mission on the NES, in the ‘90s. Perhaps his training as a B-17 tail gunner gave him an advantage, lol (he never fought, war ended after he finished training but before he saw a combat sortie). He was better at the game than any of his grandkids, hahaha.

(I’m pretty sure it was the second mission, it was the one with the space shuttle launch or whatever at the end)

Back when video games separated the men from the boys.

It was tough, but it wasn't Battletoads tough.
