In the innocent 1990s, a Japanese developer called Video System released four shoot 'em ups in the Sonic Wings series. The first three Sonic Wings games were retitled as Aero Fighters in North America for some reason. After the release of Sonic Wings Special in 1996, no new sequels have been produced... Until now! Sonic Wings Reunion is a brand new entry for everything but poor Xbox, and it's due out on October 7.
