Airwolf on Nintendo (NES) UK-USA

Official Box Art

Probably one of the worst games ever made (for airwolf) and it's only saving grace was the pick up and refuel screens that gave a break to the rest of the really bad mission game play.

Main Menu


License Screen

Compared to the Japan version by Kyugo, This U.S.A / UK release for Nintendo was an awful looking/sounding game. Developed by Beam Software under a license obtained by Acclaim this thing truly was rubbish. Beam Software founded in 1978 was based in Australia and later became Krome Studios.

This has to be one of the worst things created for Airwolf fans, let alone gamers.

You had to follow the layout on the lower part of your screen and attempt to destroy the Aeroplane Icon at the top of the map, which in fact represented the enemy air traffic tower, then you would have to pick up the man in the middle of the map. For those who where to busy fighting the enemy on the top half of the screen to realize what you where meant to be doing, they also provided a fuel / ammo pick up at the bottom of the map to top back up and get on track.

Most people played it with the Sound Off..



You would be shown a map before the mission starts outlining where you re-fuel, where you attack the tower and the X where you pick up the person. I gather someone read the bullet points and figured... We attack a tower (restar control) We rescue a P.O.W (st. john) While we take out a few unending planes along the way.. and there we have it.. an airwolf game..

Such a disaster when you consider "SkyWolf / Airwolf" released by Kyugo.

A) You Can Get An   "NES Emulator"
Emulated Games Are Generally Called A "ROM" File

Airwolf The Movie (1984) USA DVD 2011





Back of Box:
Airwolf The Movie is a futuristic high action adventure about an awesome billion dollar helicopter equipped with a twin-turbine drum rotor system capable of propelling it to 300 knots, plus 14 firepower options. When the helicopter is purloined by Libyan mercenaries, Michael Archangel (Alex Cord), project director of the CIA, enlists the help of Vietnam veteran Stringfellow Hawke (Jan-Michael Vincent) and his father's best friend Dominic Santini (Ernest Borgnine) in an attempt to recover the Airwolf.
A deadly mission takes them to the Middle East, where they come face to face with the enemy in a dirty battle to repossess the deadliest aerial weapon ever made.

Special Features:
Fully Restored Uncut Original Feature
Chapter Points / Stills Gallery
New interview with Ernest Borgnine







Fans petitioned Universal Studios for a long time to get the Series released in full on DVD, oddly the movie came out much later. Most fans who managed to already get the movie either had the VHS Public Release or the VHS Video Rental release for the lucky few who could find it back when video rental stores sold it on along with Airwolf II and Airwolf III (which were both just double episode tapes in no specific order)
And also the Columbia House Collection which was a form of "collect one a month" from a Video & later DVD publishing house, although im unsure if they officially released the movie version, as ive yet to see a Columbia House dvd or vhs cover for "the movie" that didn't look doctored in a image editor.

This USA Region 1 release also features an Interview with Ernest Borgnine
Sadly the UK Region 2 release does NOT include this additional extra

Airwolf Complete Season 4 (1987) Region 1 DVD 2011



Airwolf Season 4

This is the USA, Region 1 release in NTSC.  The box design matches the season 1,2 and 3 release unlike the original  Region 2 Release for Season 4.

No extras again with this release and 2 episode teasers are missing, the one from  "Salvage" and the one for "On the Double"  I am unsure why that is the case because i have them on VHS, they are out their.








DVD Main Menu The Same For All 5 Discs

Apparently Season 4 was only made so that the entire "Series" spanned 80 Episodes, This way the show could get syndicated on Cable and Satellite TV.  Seams a poor excuse to create 24 episodes with None of the original cast OR the actual flying helicopter. (besides J.M.V shown a few times in the first episode and the original moch up of the helicopter with the on-board computers) The rest of the show all relied on a new cast and stock footage for the aerial fights.

Special Features:
Chapter Points / Episode Summary



Universal released Airwolf Season 1 in the USA first, in May 2005, on two region 1 double sided dvd's, both boxed separately in 2 cases, which were held in a cardboard sleeve, it never got released in the UK on region 2 until 2006.  Sadly the disks being double sided means they had no artwork unlike the Region 2 set which had 4 single sided dvd's. Also the usa region 1 set has a static dvd menu, the region 2 menu has a 3d model animation.  To make up for this though, the region 1 usa release dvd's come with Episode Summary screens (as shown further down this post) which detail the episode and also list its Original Air Date.
