This is Top Gun 5 Screw, an early 5-screw shell copy of Konami's flight combat game for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Konami released Top Gun in North America in November 1987, and it went on to sell about two million copies. This listing is the loose cartridge only, with no box or manual.
You fly an F-14 against enemy MiGs that fire missiles of their own. You have three types of missile to choose from, plus unlimited machine gun ammo.
Each mission ends with a landing on a U.S. aircraft carrier. In the second level, your target is an enemy aircraft carrier.
Top Gun was the top-selling game in the U.S. for two weeks in January 1988. It combines shoot 'em up action with simple combat flight simulation.
Early NES cartridges were held together with five small slotted screws. Later shells used fewer screws, so collectors list early copies by shell type. This Top Gun Konami 1987 cartridge has the 5-screw shell. The game is the same as our standard Top Gun listing. Check the photos on this page to see the exact cartridge you will receive.
