Phalanx

"As Rick, Delta Pak's ace pilot, take command of an A-144 Phalanx fighter to investigate a research team in peril.

An old-school side-scrolling space shooter, Phalanx flings you into air, water, space and other environments. Destroy enemies to uncover new weapons systems such as homing missiles and spinning defensive pods.

Power-ups are a must for defeating the bosses that jealously guard the end of each level. Minimize the risk of being ambushed from behind by staying near screen's center."

Wiimake of a Sharp X68000 which has a port on SNES and GBA.
