Dragon Buster Dragon Buster (????????, Dragon Buster?) is an arcade game that was released by Namco in 1984. It runs on Namco Pac-Land hardware, modified to support vertical scrolling. The game was ported to the Famicom in Japan, which was later released for the Virtual Console in the same region on November 18, 2008. Dragon Buster has been ported for the PSP and is available as part of Namco Museum Battle Collection. It was followed by a Japan-only Famicom sequel, Dragon Buster II: Yami no Fuuin, and was later followed by the PlayStation game Dragon Valor. It was one of the first arcade games to feature a life meter (called "Vitality" in-game). [source:wikipedia]
