Please for the love of all things, bring this game back!!! It was soooooo far ahead of its time and it was amazing! Haven't played no could find it since I had my N64....
I remember playing this when I was a kid and having a TON of fun, even the multiplayer was great. I still remember fighting Lupus' boss on Eschebone after MANY tries and when I had nothing but the reserve pistol, practically no health, just jumping and shooting, I finally beat the mantis'. I was jumping with joy. Then there was Cerulean as Juno, running around the caves using the machine gun, definitely a highlight. Never finished JFG as a kid, I would love to try again now that I'm older.
I played this game over and over again as a child, constantly renting it but never being able to beat it. With the only modern way to play being trapped on a console I currently don't own, I would be overjoyed to see it returned in a more accessible format so I can finally take another crack at it.
pleas bring it back this game was my childhood i remember playing with friends and taking turns on different levels just to beat the game and go back and get all the stuff it is so nostalgic
CarnivalThe goal of the game is to shoot at targets, while carefully avoiding running out of bullets. Three rows of targets scroll across the screen in alternating directions; these include rabbits, ducks, owls, and bonus items. If a duck target crosses the bottom row without being shot, it will come to life and begin flying down toward the player. Any ducks that reach the bottom of the screen in this manner will eat some of the player's bullets. Objects also periodically appear among the targets that will give the player extra bullets or points when hit. A spinning wheel with eight pipes sits above the rows of moving targets; these pipes and all targets must be shot in order to complete the round.
At the end of each round, the player receives bonus points for all bullets remaining in his supply. He then plays a bonus round, where a large white bear with a target walks across the screen. Each time the bear is shot, it rears up for a second, then begins walking more quickly in the other direction. The object is to shoot the bear as many times as possible until it escapes off the screen. Following the bonus round, the next wave begins. Later bonus rounds add more bears to the screen.
In higher levels, there are more duck targets and fewer extra bullet targets, putting a premium on accurate shooting. The game ends when the player runs out of bullets.Action

Star RaidersStar Raiders is a first-person space combat simulator for the Atari 8-bit family of computers. It was written by Doug Neubauer, an Atari employee, and released as a cartridge by Atari in 1979. The game is considered the platform's killer app. It was later ported to the Atari 2600, Atari 5200, and Atari ST.
The game simulates 3D space combat between the player's ship and an invading fleet of alien "Zylon" vessels. Star Raiders was distinctive for its graphics, which, in addition to various map and long range scan views, provided forward and aft first-person views, with movement conveyed by a streaming 3D starfield as the player engaged enemy spacecraft.
While there had already been target-shooting games using the first person perspective (including 1978's Cosmic Conflict), Star Raiders had considerably higher quality visuals and more complex gameplay. It inspired imitators throughout the 1980s as well as later-generation space combat simulation games including Elite, Wing Commander, and Star Wars: X-Wing.
In 2007, Star Raiders was included in a list of the 10 most important video games of all time, as compiled by Stanford University's History of Science and Technology Collections.Action Science fiction
Moon CrestaMoon Cresta is an arcade game released in 1980 by Nichibutsu. A moving starfield gives the impression of vertical scrolling, but the game is a fixed shooter in the vein of Namco's Galaxian.
