[edit] Front Line
"Ikari Warriors was the first to use rotary joysticks: those which could be rotated in addition to being pushed in eight directions". Is this certain ? I remember playing in a Front Line machine that had a rotary joystick. But it was after 1986 so the machine could be adapted. I also think that Ikari Warriors and Commando were inspired by the older Front Line (1982)
[edit] MAME
Are there any ideas on how one might control this in MAME? If you have a sort of PS2 dual-shock-like controller with two analog joysticks, would it be possible to control movement on one stick and facing direction on the other?
[edit] Alternate Names
I distinctly remember that Clark and Ralf had different names in the NES version of Ikari Warriors. They were referred to as "Paul" and "Vince." Does anyone know what prompted the name change, and has SNK ever attempted to explain it? M.Neko
[edit] Cleanup
The articles for the sequels need work. They both came out in arcades first.
