What does this mean?
Mickey can't use his standard shot simultaneously with a special weapon?

thx for the hints.
I don't know why ANYONE thought it would be a great idea to hear a beeping noise the whole time while you are low on shield power - this is awful.

no he was supposed to be able to fire 2 of the inventory weapons at once so for instance 2 t-lasers or 2 super shells but hes bugged so you really dont get any advantage from playing him unlike the other pilots

try buying the $300,000 jet as soon as you can its the most powerful jet for the money then when you get to the cave stage with that stupid flamethrower boss (hardest stage in the game IMO) farm money trucks for the $1,000,000 jet

Oh ok. Thanks!
Well, IMO the SNES port is more difficult than the arcade original.
The SNES game can be a bit cumbersome. I've been playing the game off and on casually since I was a 4th grader and it didn't click with me until last october. Bitting the bullet with the stock ship is the way to go. Then milk enough to buy the priciest ship and weapons and voila.

Yeah this is definitely the quickest way to do it however it does take a good amount of skill (or know how of the bosses workings) to beat a lot of these bosses with the first jet. for instance on the ground carrier if you position yourself right between the missile launchers on the base of the ship right above that first plane launcher and just high enough to shoot the weak point when it pops up you can just stay right at that spot and not get hit by anything. You can either blow up that plane launcher right away or the way i prefer to do it is to just bomb the planes with normal bombs when they come out.

If you keep practicing you'll eventually hear it less.
Haha pro tip
Mickey's advantage is that he gets TWICE the amount from a weapons rack ammo pickup. For example if Greg has 50 bombs and he picks up a weapons rack he will have 60, but Mickey will go from 50 to 70 instead.

I love to play the sequel Carrier Airwing. Does UN Squadron contain the same gameplay and is it worth buying if you have the sequel (original CPS1 Hardware) ?

Thats the ONLY way to fly, my friend!
Also, I'm never consistant on picking up the bonuses, suppose I should work on that, an extra shield bonus is always nice.

I haven't played this one in a while, but was able to pick it up quickly. Fun game.

You need to move diagonal back-down from the very beginning in order to get the first tree, there's very little margin for error. After that, you just have to make sure to hit all the rest of the trees in the forest.
