Spy Hunter ports the Bally Midway arcade shoot race on Sunsoft NES with its secret agent in armed bolide eliminating enemy vehicles. The representation offers top down view with weaponry and vehicle change in an original cult vehicular arcade shoot formula. Honest for NES arcade fans, curiosity of the 8 bit Sunsoft catalog.

Collector interest

Sunsoft's NES port of Bally Midway's arcade road shooter, released in late 1987 in the United States. An early Sunsoft title, compatible with NES driving peripherals, it shows the studio's technical craft before its later classics. The NTSC cartridge stays very common and the conversion ages poorly against the cabinet, limiting its aura. Collector interest is confined to clean sealed copies and the pull of early Sunsoft third-party releases, for a narrow audience.
