Give up? If you guessed Mega Turrican, then you’re absolutely right (The Turrican reference wasn’t a dead giveaway, we hope).

There’s no scheduled release date for the game just yet, as it’s only been rated by the ESRB, so you’ll have to be patient and wait for the official announcement. In the meantime, you can probably pick up some other sci-fi themed games that are currently out on Nintendo Wii Virtual Console.
