Gun.Smoke [Saloon Art]
Nintendo Entertainment System · 1988
About this game
Gun.Smoke is a vertical scrolling shooter that casts the gamer as a lone gunman, out to save the gold rush town of Hicksville from a fearsome group of bandits known as the Wingates.
Each level has a particular target enemy, although his henchmen must also be taken out.

Although it largely takes place on foot, the gameplay resembles Commando , with its diagonal-down action.
The screen scrolls at a constant rate, and enemies come at you from the edges, to be shot or avoided.
Various power-ups can be grabbed along the way.
Finding a horse will allows the player to get hit twice before death rather than just once.
There are scenes in which the cowboy rafts up a river and use the tracks of a railway line.
On the NES the controls work differently with the A button to fire up and right, the B button to fire up and left, or A and B simultaneously to fire straight ahead.
One-button control systems mimic all this.
About Nintendo Entertainment System
The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.
Gamevaro tracks Gun.Smoke [Saloon Art] for Nintendo Entertainment System with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Rarity & condition

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
