Historical Context
Phalanx made its debut on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) in 1992 and was later re-released for the GameBoy Advance in 2001. The game stood out back then for its unusual box art, featuring an older man with a banjo, something many gamers still remember vividly. Despite the quirky box art, the game itself was praised for its solid gameplay and challenging difficulty level. The GBA version brought the same intense action to a portable format, making it a must-have for fans of the shoot 'em up genre.

If you enjoy challenging gameplay and the feeling of satisfaction after defeating a tough end boss, then this game is truly for you. Collectors of GBA games will also appreciate this title for its historical significance and solid gameplay.

A new science fiction adventure!
Phalanx is the first GBA game I played. Great music, not always easy, cool weapons, and brutal enemies. Play this game if you're ready for a new science fiction adventure.
Originally, this space shooter was released in the early 90s on the Super Nintendo. The American version had a rather unusual box art at the time, look it up sometime.
