To me it looks like the lady is freaked out by the sheriff shooting at the criminal and the criminal seems more confused by the lady than by the bullet going through his hat.

I've never been in an old west bank robbery so I don't claim to be an expert.  

 

I still love the box and by Grapthar's hammer I will buy one.

I still can't believe people used to walk around with bags that obviously have a money symbol on them.

They are just asking for trouble!

But you have to remember that back in those days most people were illiterate, so they didn't know what was on those bags :)

I'm curious - how exactly does input for this game work?  Does the player use the disc to aim a gunsight?

No, the gunsights are fixed like in the original.

Keypad 1,2,3 shots at doors to the left, center and right respectively.

Disc is used to scroll the screen laterally.

And I must say it controls and works quite well using this scheme! I like this port of the game quite a bit and glad I picked mine up at PRGE.

Glad to hear the feedback.
Back then I toyed with other control schemes, but landed on this one.

Given that you don’t usually move and shoot at the same time, I thought it could work despite the controller’s limitations of simultaneous disc/keypad use.

Sounds great.

I used to play it in the cabinet version when I was just a little bit younger...

I'm too fond of the game and if I can't land a CIB one I will probably get the rom and give it a run very soon.

From the screenshot and the video on youtube it seems very well ported to the inty.

Just wanted to let you know some info I came across on the restock of the CIB version.

I contacted Rev three weeks ago and he told me that the restock could happen in spring or summer.

I am checking the store periodically but so far the game is still out of stock.

If someone has some other info they want to share, please let me and the forum know.

Thank you!
