Play Final Mission (Japan) Online
Pick your pilot, dodge a storm of lasers, and blast through waves of robots—this one’s got that frantic arcade energy where survival means learning patterns fast. That synth soundtrack just cranks up the chaos.
Final Mission (or S.C.A.T. if you're not playing the Japanese version) is one of those NES shooters that feels like it snuck in from the arcades—fast, punishing, and weirdly stylish for its time. You pick between two pilots (I always go for the spread shot guy because, let’s be real, covering more of the screen is survival 101), and then it just throws you into this non-stop barrage of robots, lasers, and explosions. The soundtrack’s all crunchy synths, like someone fused an action movie with an ‘80s workout tape.
It’s got that classic Contra energy—tight controls, screen-filling chaos—but with its own flavor. The first level tricks you into thinking you’ve got this, and then suddenly you’re dodging bullets from three directions while some mechanical monstrosity fills half the screen. Retro fans looking for something tough but fair will dig it, though maybe keep a turbo controller handy for your thumbs’ sake.
Still holds up if you’re into that era of “no mercy” game design.
