Code Name: Viper is a like a lot of classic NES games mashed into one. You've got a little bit of Contra, a hint of Rolling Thunder, and a dash of Shinobi. When you're grabbing all of those games and throwing them into a blender, something delicious has to come out, right? Especially, when you're talking about Capcom.
Come on, when has Capcom failed you? Don't answer that question.....but you know your chances are at least somewhat good with this game. You play as Kenny Smith (what a generic, American name) aka. VIPER who has been tasked with taking out a drug syndicate in South America. That's not all - a lot of your fellow soldiers have been kidnapped, and it's up to you to rescue them.
I don't know. When you're talking about a gigantic drug ring, you would probably want to send more than one guy...but hey, this is a video game, and he looks like he can handle himself based on the box art.
