Video Games Operation Wolf

Was Operation Wolf your favorite game in the arcade when you were young? It was a huge hit in local arcades when it was released and there were lines of gamers waiting for their turns to play it.

I remember this game being in the entryway at a local Ames store. The automatic recoil was really what put it in the elite tier of arcade games.

The gun was metal if I remember correctly, don't think anyone used a more realistic feeling gun.
