NAM-1975 (c) 1990 SNK.
One or two players take control of 2 machine-gun carrying Vietnam vets who must shoot their way through a number of sideways scrolling, Vietnam-themed levels. the players shoot INTO the screen and aiming is achieved via the use an on-screen target, which each player directs to lock on to the various enemy troops and vehicles. Players can run and somersault to avoid the incoming enemy fire.
A number of more powerful weapons - such as grenades and flame throwers - are often dropped by the enemy and can be picked up and used. Bonus points are also revealed in this fashion.
Nam-1975 is a blatant plagurisation of TAD Corp's 'Cabal', released in 1988. Cabal is easily the more accomplished of the two games.

>>> TRIVIA
----------
Released in April 1990.
This is the first game developed for the SNK Neo-Geo MVS hardware (MVS stand for 'Multi Video System', Neo-Geo means 'New World').
One of NAM-1975's influences was the 1987 Stanley Kubrick film, Full Metal Jacket. There are even some scenes which mirror the film such as the screaming soldier in the intro with the 'Born To Kill' helmet, and a vietnamese lady with an AK-47 (which is seen near the end of the movie).
