With such a short campaign and little incentive for replayability, I can’t really recommend Aero Fighters 2 and that’s coming from someone that enjoys scrolling shoot ‘em ups. If you’ve got $8 to spend, I would recommend spending it on another Neo Geo game or maybe saving up for another Switch title.

- 9.0With the eight options of fighter plane, lots of different enemies, frantic action and multiple endings, there's a lot to like about this game. Adding to the fun is the different locations visited and some entertaining boss battles. The game can provide a tough challenge and two-player is enjoyable, but it's the Hi-Score and Caravan modes that make it easy to keep coming back to. Providing top-quality shooter action, Aero Fighters 2 is a highly recommended download.
- 6.0Aero Fighters 2 is still a fun installment on the Switch, however. The soundtrack, while nothing special, does a decent job of giving you some drive and atmosphere to blowing the hell out of everything in front of you. The graphics are pretty standard for what you’d expect from the time, properly retro enjoyable without being too ugly or impressive for the early 90s. Fans of vertical shooters in general will have a good time, and newcomers can always find appreciation in the earlier works of SNK.
