About Forgotten Worlds
FORGOTTEN WORLDS is a one- to two-player simultaneous side-scrolling
shooter made by CAPCOM CO., LTD. It was one of the first games to
incorporate 360-degree aiming and shooting. This SEGA GENESIS version
provides the same impact and intensity of the classic arcade game. The
time: the 29th century. Without warning, warships broke through the sky,
loaded with fiendish aliens. They rained down fire, bombs, missiles, and
napalm, making it barren and inhospitable. Humanity was enslaved, and
Earth became known as the Forgotten World. In a hidden place, a group of
brave humans raised two male children in secret. They brought up the
young men as warriors, training them for battle. The two warriors
emerged as armed machines of might, strength, and super power—the
Nameless Ones. Fight the hateful invaders as the powerful Nameless Ones!
Collect Zenny to upgrade your weapons and satellite, and free the planet
that was once called Earth.
This classic game is part of the Virtual Console service, which brings you great games created for consoles such as NES™, Super NES™ and Game Boy™ Advance. See more Virtual Console games for Wii.
