Operation Night Strikers Assault Edition

The Operation Night Strikers Assault Edition for Nintendo Switch is four Taito arcade legends on one cartridge with the physical extras to match. M2 handled the emulation, which means Operation Wolf, Operation Thunderbolt, Night Striker, and Space Gun play exactly like their arcade originals demanded.

These are the cabinets that lined arcade walls in the late '80s and early '90s. Light gun shooters, pseudo-3D racers, and sci-fi blasters that ate your pocket money and gave you stories to tell at school the next day. The CS DLC pack adds console ports from NES, Master System, SNES, and Mega CD, turning this into a comprehensive archive.

The Assault Edition special box holds a Fanbook diving into the history behind these titles, a Taito Sound Bullets Soundtrack CD, an A3 poster, and a reversible titlesheet. The Fanbook and soundtrack CD elevate this from "compilation" to "archive."

For Switch collectors who remember these cabinets, the Assault Edition is the physical tribute these games deserve. Four arcade greats, one cartridge, and a box of extras that respects the source material.
