It was recently reported on Gaming Alexandra that “VIEWPOINT 2064” , also known as “SHOSHINKAI” (as shown off at Space World) has been found AND DUMPED for your gaming pleasure! Here YouTuber Mad Little Pixel tells us more…

Viewpoint was one of Sammy’s first games since they withdrew from video games temporarily in 1980. They previously had only entered the industry during the Space Invader boom with ST Space Invader and ST Galaxian in 1980, dealing in licensed production as a safe way to test the waters.  Viewpoint was sold on its three-quarter viewing angle, diagonal scrolling, and pre-rendered 3D assets, and Sammy called the game innovative and a visual masterpiece. While some earlier STGs used diagonal angles such as Sega/Gremlin’s 1982 arcade title Zaxxon, Viewpoint was nevertheless highly received for its difficult gameplay, smooth visuals, and unique soundtrack., This spurred Sammy to make efforts to grow in the game industry, absorbing developer Aicom in the process. –  Gaming Alexandra
