Tomorrow witnesses the long-awaited and highly-anticipated comeback of Data East’s Windjammers, hurtling onto a Sony console close to you. A delightful launch trailer has been unveiled, crafted in the style of the early ’90s infomercials.
This isn’t the initial occasion when a retro-release has adopted this kind of marketing tactic, yet it’s still an entertaining snippet, evoking memories of late-night, low-budget advertisements for duck-shaped telephones, Tel-Star CD box sets and radio-equipped baseball caps.
Windjammers was issued by SNK in 1994, for both the arcade market and their own Neo-Geo console. It’s a straightforward-yet-addictive flying-disc game placed in a futuristic setting where frisbee has apparently dominated the sporting realm. The game has lately turned into a favorite on the internet, being played frequently on the Giant Bomb website and even hosted as an official EVO entry last month.
If you desire to partake in the excitement yourself, then you won’t have to wait for long. Windjammers will be arriving on the PS4 and PS Vita tomorrow, as a cross-buy title, priced at $15.
