Eightman (or '8-Man' as it's sometimes written) is an early Neo Geo MVS/AES release based on the 1963 Manga character of the same name. While this character was little known outside of Japan, it was this video game release which allow him to reach foreign markets.
Eightman is a one or two player side-scrolling platform shooter in the true spirit of the early Neo Geo MVS titles - that is, very large and bright sprites with clever sprite scaling effects to show off the new hardware! While the actual game might not be the strongest title on the system, there's certainly some fun to be had here sprinting through the levels, blowing things up!
