    A Squadron Of 1942 Joint Strike Screens

    Can I be the only gamer out there pumped for a return to Capcom's 194X series of vertical shooters? Surely not! I long to return to the heady days of my youth wasted at Chuck E. Cheese, force feeding a 1943 cabinet tokens—then ultimately crushed the heartbreaking by the NES 1942 port. Capcom's seen fit to deploy a quintet of new screens for its Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network sequel, 1942 Joint Strike, a title that fills my heart with POWs. It's still so pleasing that Japan isn't sore enough about all those aerial casualties as to keep Capcom from pumping out WWII-era shmups.
