Wild Guns (1994)

Super Nintendo: while firing, your directional input moves the crosshair rather than your character. Release that commitment and use jumps, rolls or a lasso to stay alive. The result is a compact negotiation between aiming and bodily safety, with foreground heroes and background targets sharing one screen. Its western science fiction is memorable, but that control tension earns the place here. This entry is the two-character original, not Wild Guns Reloaded.
