    If you turn the difficulty level down to 1 or 2, set lives to 9 and maximize your score-based bonus lives you will have a really fun play through of NAM-1975. A standard 'level 4' difficulty game is quite frustrating, but if you take my advise you will really enjoy this game. The gameplay is fun and intuitive, there are some interesting boss encounters, cool cut-scenes, and the 6 level /If you turn the difficulty level down to 1 or 2, set lives to 9 and maximize your score-based bonus lives you will have a really fun play through of NAM-1975.

    NAM-1975 is a fun game while it lasts. The game itself is short, but the gameplay is fun and the presentation is pretty sophisticated for a game from 1990, which I like. Picking up NAM isn’t absolutely necessary, but it can be a fun diversion while also taking note of what SNK had in mind for the NEO-GEO hardware.

    Another top quality retro game for Switch, NAM-1975 provides top tier multiplayer blasting action, a large range of customisation that the future Virtual Console would do well to copy, and classic pixel art. A short life span encourages quick bursts of play, but compliments its host hardware perfectly.

    NAM-1975's status as a Neo Geo launch title means that while it's fun in short bursts, it's a long way from being the best the console has to offer. The action gets repetitive after long periods of time and in terms of visuals, it's quite a dull game in places. Still, if you're a fan of old-school coin-op blasters like Operation Wolf and Dynamite Duke then this is well worth a look, and the enhancements made by publisher Hamster Corporation are excellent, as always.
