NES | Heavy Barrel

Heavy Barrel for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) is an intense top-down run-and-gun shooter released by Data East in 1990. Players assume the role of a commando fighting through an enemy stronghold to stop a nuclear threat. The game’s standout feature is the titular "Heavy Barrel" weapon, a powerful laser cannon that players assemble by collecting six parts hidden throughout the levels. Heavy Barrel offers cooperative two-player gameplay, allowing friends to team up and blast their way through waves of enemies, turrets, and challenging bosses. With its fast-paced action and strategic weapon system, Heavy Barrel is a classic NES arcade-style experience.
