Notes: A very early release for the Famicom that came out a few years later for the NES for unknown reasons. Considering this, the graphics can’t be considered too bad, though it should have been released sooner. Primitive, though it’s fun to watch your enemies’ spines snap and blow up.
Notes: Let it be said that after “Top Gun,” there should have been NO releases that attempted to present a simulation of flying an aircraft, fighter, or what have you.

Notes: An excellent game based on the cartoon. Plenty of variety and great gameplay. Controls are sometimes awkward, but not entirely.
Notes: Sequel to “The Flintstones: The Rescue of Dino and Hoppy.” A great game and worth the trouble to locate it. Includes new features like the ability to play as Barney.
Notes: Action/adventure game that can be looked at as a precursor to true fighting games, though it didn’t necessarily have a great impact on gaming. Very unique gameplay, especially during the competitions.
Notes: Sequel to “Flying Dragon: The Secret Scroll.” Features updated graphics and tons of new skills and items. Gameplay is more simple and thus much easier, but the game is still a challenge. Verges on a true fighting game with the inclusion of a special tournament mode.
