Hi, all

Does this game use 3 buttons?
Can't find instructions on the Web.

The only Alpha Missions I can find is this :-


Not sure if this is it ?? if it is then its 4 Button.

That's alpha mission 2.
I got alpha mission also known as ASO and arian mission.
I got this as faulty and got it repaired, I can't understand how to select the weapons?
On the pinout it's wired for 2 buttons but I've read the nes version where it uses 3 buttons, select button to change weapon.
Is this a rare game?

One of these sold on eBay recently, had an eye on it myself , think it went for about £90

There is no game with the name Alpha Mission as far as I can tell. There is a ' ASO ' :-



And yes it is indeed a 3 button game !

thanks Dave for confirming it uses 3 buttons,the weird thing is I found 2 pin outs for this game and it’s wired for 2 buttons only?
button 1 = fire
button 2 = bomb

i think that ASO is the same game.
