Top Gun NES is a combat flight game developed and published by Konami, released in North America in November 1987. You fly an F-14 from a first-person cockpit view, fighting MiGs and landing on a carrier after every mission. This listing is the loose cartridge only, with no box or manual.
The game puts you in the seat of an F-14 fighter pilot. There are four levels, each with enemy MiGs to shoot down. Level two adds a bigger target: an enemy aircraft carrier you must destroy.
Fuel is part of the challenge. Refueling happens in mid-air, and you can call in a tanker once per level. In the last three levels, refueling is required to finish the mission.
Each level ends with a landing. You must land the F-14 on a U.S. aircraft carrier to move on. You also choose between three different types of missile. The game sold about two million copies in the United States.
Collectors track two shell types for this game: a 5-screw version and a 3-screw version. The game inside is the same. We list the Top Gun 5-screw cartridge separately, so check the photos on this page to see the exact Top Gun cartridge you will receive.
Fly again in the sequel, Top Gun: The Second Mission, or take a helicopter into battle in Tiger Heli. Browse all NES games and read about Top Gun on Wikipedia.

A dull, near impossible flight simulating game
This is a dull, near impossible flight simulating game. Its not all that based on the movie, there is no real story, you are just a F-14 fighter in hostile territory. You have guns and select the rockets and missiles to use before each mission (level).
It is a nice flight simulator, but its just dull with long periods of sky, no clouds, no sea, no land, no obsticles. Then there is the challenge. Enemies firing rockets at you from sea and air. One rocket and you’re dead, I suppose its like that in real life. Enemy jets get behind you and you need to shake them before they destroy you with their rockets or missiles.
Then halfway through a mission, you will need more jet fuel, so the flying fuel tanker flies in and you need to get the fuel just right or die trying. At the end of each mission, you need to land on an aircraft carrier with perfection. Too fast, you crash, too slow, you crash, too high, you crash, too low, you crash.
Its a prescise game, so if you love prescision, this is your game! However, for casual gamers, this is a frustratingly difficult and unfun game.
