'''Solvalou''' is a first-person [[shooter]] arcade game that was released by [[Namco]] in [[1991]] only in Japan. It runs on Namco System 21 hardware, and is the third title in the company's {{c|Xevious}} series. "Solvalou" is also the name of the ship that the player controls in all three games - as well as the fourth and fifth ones, [[Xevious 3D/G]] and [[Xevious Arrangement]]. Not only was it the only title in the series to use a Yamaha YM-2151 FM sound chip for its songs and a C140 custom sound chip for its sound effects, but it was also the only title in the series to use an analogue joystick with two buttons and a sit-down cabinet (rather than an upright). | '''Solvalou''' is a first-person [[shooter]] arcade game that was released by [[Namco]] in [[1991]] only in Japan.
