On-rails shooter from a helicopter cockpit. Rail action, machine guns and missiles, varied levels. Fun for Star-Fox-style rail-shooter fans, but the targeting is off and the run is short. A minor catalogue entry.

Knife Edge - Nose Gunner (N64) price, value & rarity
A cockpit rail shooter from Kemco, released in 1998 and steered entirely with the analog stick for want of an aiming peripheral on N64. Its lukewarm critical reception limited the Western run, which makes it today a notably scarcer title than its modest reputation would suggest. Its desirability lies mainly in North American N64 set completion, the segment where low-distribution obscurities are precisely the ones missing from full collections.
