Title: Aeroblasters - Which ship do you pick?
Post by: fragmare on November 16, 2014, 06:03:52 AM

In the arcade version of Aeroblasters (Air Buster), the ships were actually named.  They weren't named in the game, but the names were labeled on the cabinet as 'Red Wolf' and 'Golden Fox', if i recall.

So the question is... which ship do you normally pick?  :)

I never considered it an option.

I choose the good one.

I always played alone, so I guess Red.

I pick red most, but sometimes yellow...

I usually go with the default selection which is red.

Same here.   Is there a big difference (advantage) to using one over the other?

To my knowledge, there is no difference whatsoever.  That being said, I always picked yellow, just to be different.  Plus, I dig the forward swept wings.

Red for me too. I've thought about switching up more often though. Sometimes when the action gets busy I lose track of the ship. Maybe yellow stands out a little better...

I pick the fire stingray.... the golden fox was too sloppy for me.
