Strider Hiryû (ストライダー飛竜) for the Sharp X68000 is a port of the 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 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.
Since there's no american counterpart for the X68000 computer, the game remains a Japanese-exclusive release.
