'''Strider Hiryû''' (ストライダー飛竜) for the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharp_X68000 Sharp X68000] is a port of the [[Strider (CPS-1)|original coin-op]] game onto the aforementioned system, a Japan-exclusive home computer which was incredibly popular at the time. The port is a near perfect adaptation of the original arcade game, even moreso than the [[Strider (Mega Drive)|Mega Drive port]]. This is due to the fact that the Sharp X68000's hardware is virtually identical to Capcom's CPS-1 arcade board, which the first Strider used.
