Ironclad is a 1996 horizontally scrolling shooter developed and published by Saurus for the Neo Geo CD video game console. It was originally developed for the Neo Geo MVS arcade system, and repeatedly advertised as such, but SNK did not release it for unknown reasons despite its completion.
The unreleased MVS version was re-released by D4 Enterprise for Wii via the Virtual Console in Japan on November 24, 2009, and in 2010 in PAL regions on March 12, and in North America on April 5. A port for Microsoft Windows, OS X, Linux and asm.js developed by DotEmu was released by SNK Playmore as part of the Humble NEOGEO 25th Anniversary Bundle on December 15, 2015. The game was later released on GOG.com on October 5, 2017.
