Pilotwings retrospective: A bold attempt to one-up the PC flight sim | Super NES Works #003

Watch on Youtube

Youtube Video Description:

Nintendo's third creation for their 16-bit console took an atypical approach for the company at the time, presenting players with a highly technical flight sim that demanded consistent, precision mastery of its varied mechanics. There's not really all that much game here, as the developers strained to exceed the boundaries of their new console, but good luck seeing this brief flight school course through to the end!
