I remember, a while back, I was about 10 maybe, I played this NES game. It was one of the most amazing NES games ever. I hardly have a picture memory of it. I just recolect the music was the best music I had ever heard, it was a side scrolling action style game. Can't remember if you had a gun or not. I just remember seeing it on one of those old game shows in the morning before school and then renting it the next day and being amazed. Sorry if this is vague, there could be tons of answers to this. I just know that if I were to actually see a screen shot of the game, I'd recognize it. Just think of a side scroller, with an awesome soundtrack. I'm just trying to figure this out, so that I may ebay it and buy it.

side scroller covers about 70% of the NES library...

side scroller with awesome music...

MegaMan 2 is the best of both of those, but I'm sure you dont mean a game as well known as that.

I think you might be thinking of SCAT - Special Cybernetic Attack Team. That was a shooter and had GREAT music.

yeah, VGmuseum will only allow you to link to the HTML page for each game, so the only way that'll work is to change all of those links...

Say what?

...

To the topic starter:
If you really want someone to help you with finding this game, you really need to give a little more information about it.

Could you at leat remember what the characters re like, weapons, level designs, bosses, anything?

It's difficult to narrow the field down from about 500 possible choices.
