Summary

Super Thunder Blade landed on the Mega Drive as a high‑octane shooter, debuting alongside Space Harrier II and Altered Beast as part of the console’s Japanese launch lineup, and later joining the six titles that kicked off the U.S. release. It builds on the 1987 arcade classic Thunder Blade, giving players a cockpit view equipped with a 20mm Vulcan cannon and AATM missiles to hunt down a hidden enemy base and blow it sky‑high. The game resurfaced on the Wii Virtual Console in September 2007, and its nostalgic appeal earned spots in the Sega Genesis Collection for PS2/PSP and in Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Collection for Xbox 360 and PS3, keeping the retro‑flight experience alive for new generations.

Storyline

In Super Thunder Blade, a renegade army has set its sights on world domination. From a secret power base in the East, they unleash deadly troops to threaten the free world. As the lone pilot, you must pierce their defenses and stop the invasion. The fate of freedom rests on your skill and courage.
