A cooperative Run-and-Gun game released on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis by Treasure in 1993. Sometime in the future, somewhere not too far from where you live, Gunstars Red and Blue are twins from a family of protectors of the planet Gunstar 9 (G-9), attempting to stop a dictator named Colonel Red from collecting the four famous Mystical Gems in order to reactivate a planet-sucking alien robot known as Golden Silver in a misguided plot to reshape the world.At least, that's how the original North American release describes it.That being, you (partner optional, but highly recommended) take control of either one of Red and Blue and traverse several levels of increasing chaos and explosions. What really adds to the run-and-gun nature of it, though, is how the two playable characters differ in action, as well as the clever weapons system. Technically, Red is Free Shot - meaning you can run and gun at the same time with the primary drawback being that it's a bit harder to aim in a specific direction (since... you move when you fire); counter to this, Blue is Fixed Shot, so he can't move and fire but is capable of firing in all 8 directions. This doesn't seem like much of a difference at first, but when you add that certain weapon combos work better for certain types - it allows for a wide variance in playstyles.Overall the game is best known for its impressive graphic effects, frantic action, great music, and epic boss fights.A single-player "sequel", Gunstar Super Heroes, was released in 2005 for the GBA, and sets up a new team of heroes (who have the same names as their predecessors) to fight against the Empire Army once again to stop Golden Silver from reviving a second time. It also appears to follow the Japanese Mega Drive storyline more closely, with the names mostly reverted.The original game was first made available post-Genesis on the PS2 Sega Ages series (with less slowdown) which...alas...is a fine example of No Export for You. However, it is now available for download on Virtual Console, Xbox Live, PSN, iOS and Steam, as well as the 3D Classics line of remasterings on Nintendo 3DS. | |

Easter Egg | |
| Gunstar Heroes (Video Game) / int_29a39f6 | comment |
Easter Egg: Timeron in Stage 6 is an Optional Boss you can dispose of in about 2 seconds and move along, but there's a reason the game puts a timer on the screen and taunts, "How long can you last?" Letting him live sends you on a seemingly endless journey through Bullet Hell. But, if by some miracle of endurance you manage to hold out for 100 minutes... this happens. Very telling that the programmer's signature laughs at you. | |

Difficult, but Awesome: A certain number of the weapon combos are like this, particularly, any of the combinations that are more effective at close range. Some combos are better (but not exclusively so) in the hands of specific characters, like the controlled fireball, a weapon that is arguably better suited for Fixed Shot. | |

Evolving Attack: At the start of the original, you chose your gun type, from Force (Rapid Fire, medium damage), Fire (close range, high damage), Lightning (thin rounds that pierce enemies - and can pierce through certain walls), and Chaser (homing attack, low damage). You can later pick up powerups in the form of the other guns, and create a hybrid weapon from two weapon types, or an upgraded version from two of the same. | |

A.I. Breaker: You can pin Green in the corner easily with the Laser Blade. He would counter by throwing very fast ninja stars...which your blade deflects effortlessly. Then you'd mow him down with the blade, he would recover and try to throw stars again. All you have to do is keep the blade on him. Green gets another big one during the first time you face him; if he should turn into the Blaster Force, there's a safe zone directly under the core of the gun that you can slide to and just sit there while it fires fruitlessly; | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: Some enemies throw bombs that explode on impact. If you time it well, you can catch the bomb and throw it back. | |

Bait-and-Switch Boss | |
| Gunstar Heroes (Video Game) / int_da03a529 | comment |
Bait-and-Switch Boss: This actually happens twice in the game. Once at the halfway point of the game (against the so-called "Final Great Soldier" whose only attack is "Love Love Dancing"), and once at the end. | |

Dub Name Change | |
| Gunstar Heroes (Video Game) / int_e2c4b927 | comment |
Dub Name Change: There are quite a few changes between the initial English release and the subsequent Japanese version that came out the following day. The planet Gunstar 9 was originally Earth, and some side characters had different names, such as Professor White Gunstar being Doctor Brown (no relation to Back to the Future), and Colonel Red being General Gray. The characters who were named in-game remained the same, however, and the Earth is still mentioned during the intro - the exception being Golden Silver, who has the title of "Destructor" rather than the "God of Ruin" like in the Japanese version. Gunstar Super Heroes uses the Japanese terminology for the most part, but for whatever reason Smash Daisaku changed to "Colonel Smash" in the instruction booklet, the gems are now called Treasure Gems, and both of Golden Silver's nicknames are used. Pink's cohorts Kain (skinny guy) and Kotaro (the round one) are also unnamed outside the Japanese manual until Super Heroes. | |

Roll-and-Move | |
| Gunstar Heroes (Video Game) / int_ee21e406 | comment |
Roll-and-Move: The Dice Palace immediately before the boss fight with Black. There's a game board hovering in the air, and a giant die on the floor that you roll by shooting. Depending on which space you land on, you get transported into a short level, a miniboss fight, a bonus room full of powerups... or the second-to-last space that sends you back to the beginning of the board. Reaching the last space lets you proceed to the boss fight against Black himself... who also abides by Roll-and-Move rules. He's in a giant mecha, and before every attack he rolls a die, then walks the number of steps he just rolled. | |

Brick Joke: One of the mini-bosses in Black's dice maze is Timeron. Upon defeating it, it flies into the sky. Later, during the space shooter stage, Timeron returns, having shot up into the cosmos. Of course, the joke falls flat if you didn't land on Timeron's space in the dice maze. | |
