Shootout[a] is a 1985 arcade target shooting game developed and published by Data East.

Besides criminals and civilians, some objects in the backgrounds of the seven stages can be shot to earn extra points, such as amusement park rides and signs.

[8] In Japan, Game Machine listed Shootout on their August 15, 1985 issue as being the tenth most-successful table arcade unit of the month.

[3] Clare Edgeley of Computer and Video Games magazine gave it a positive review.

She noted the enemies "crop up in the most unexpected places" and said it was "as much fun as" Sega's Bank Panic (1984) and Nintendo's Hogan's Alley (1984).
