This is a game of kings. Try to pick something iconic or recognizable on the cover, a grey splotch from CoD Ghost probably won’t be much fun for anyone to guess. If the guess is right I’d recommend a macro shot so people can marvel at the full art work together. You know the drill, help your boys and girls out if they’re struggling. What I’ll do, or anyone can do, is if it’s been a day or two without guesses, post in here asking if someone wants to take a crack at it. If not, feel free to post another image. We aren’t keeping score or anything. If the poster wants it guessed on, they’ll probably be posting hints. Also if someone guessed it and hasn’t posted the next one, again, tag them and see if they want to post an image, if non responsive jump in if you like.

I played the living crap out of TM1 and 2, but went the GameCube route and never played much of black. I need to rectify that one day.

The pink sub should've given it away for all you shoot 'em up fans. That's the progenitor to In The Hunt. It's the one and only Sqoon.

I know I’ve seen that before but can’t immediately place it or visualize more of the picture.

I've actually literally never heard of this. Thought maybe it was Stinger or Fantasy Zone but negative on both having a fish on the cover

It's super-fun and comes highly recommended. Pat Contri did a "Pat the NES Punk" review on it a few years back. Feel free to check it out by clicking on the image below:

Tiger Heli.

That was my first instinct but I didn't look it up the first round.

Someone else can go.

I got a good hint if anyone needs it. wink

The guy they're shooting at uses a grappler-hook arm instead of jumping.

Some sort of commando type

"For two years, your people have struggled against the relentless onslaught of invading forces. With your army reduced to a handful and your artillery depleted, further resistance seems impossible.

But in a hidden underground laboratory, a team of scientists has at least perfected a new kind of fighting machinery: a bionic arm that extends and contracts, providing unheard-of strength and maneuverability. Combined with an arsenal of rapid-fire, armor-piercing, and heat-seeking weaponry, this will put the power of an entire army in the hands of one man... one carefully chosen soldier, who has what it takes to become a new breed of unstoppable commando... a Bionic Commando. And you are that soldier!

Your mission will take you through the heavily-patrolled wilderness surrounding the enemy headquarters, and into the very heart of the fortress itself. Even to the most courageous soldier, it would seem an impossible challenge. But there has never been a soldier like the Bionic Commando!"

There's no need to fear; SUPER hint is here!

This Nintendo Entertainment System port of a modest arcade shoot 'em up later received an equally-modest sequel on their cash-cow powerhouse multi-video system. Did I mention that this developer-slash-publisher is waaay better known for their 2-D arcade FIGHTERS? They're definitely KING in my book. wink
