There are moments at the arcade where it's not fun and games - like a situation that happened with 1985's Tiger-Heli. My new article talks a bit about it: https://popcultureretrorama.com/2019/10/16/diary-of-an-arcade-employee-1985s-tiger-heli-and-strawberry-frappe-do-not-mix/ #arcadelife #tigerheli #taito #capcom #retrogaming #popculture #arcades #thatsnotgood #videogaming #popcultureretrorama #diaryofanarcadeemployee #podcast https://www.instagram.com/p/B3rWdguAfMg/?igshid=yayvye0mrrib

Tiger-Heli (1985 Arcade By Taito) is a vertical scrolling shooter where the player controls a helicopter taking on hordes of enemies which include tanks, battleships, and artillery. It is interesting to note that, besides some airplanes taking off, there are no flying enemies in the entire game. The player's main weapon is an unlimited supply of missiles that travel a max distance of half the screen's height. #tigerheli #verticalshooter #shooter #helicopter #taito #arcade #favoritevideogames #retro #retrogaming
