Notes: Exactly the same as the other two versions of this game. For information on HES and the differences of these versions, see “4 in 1 Fun Blaster Pak.”
Notes: I was disappointed when this wasn’t released for NTSC audiences. Nintendo Power had it listed for release in America and actually had codes for it in the hint section. It’s a basic space shooter, but with excellent graphics and sound. The gameplay is pretty basic, you only have three power-ups and two buddies that float around you when you get them, but other than that it’s a great game.
Notes: A very interesting, strategic colonization title. Complicated to the umpteenth power and deep in many respects. Many a child rented this game to be overwhelmed by intelligent insanity. Not for those with little patience. This game is very well done, but takes a lot of time to get into. Lots of innovative features.
Notes: Terrible, terrible shooting space game that deserves to be hated by all. Controls are very unresponsive and the graphics are reminiscent of other such titles like “Mission Cobra.” Don’t even bother.
Notes: Action game based on the arcade version. Stays pretty true most of the time to the original, simply with graphics that are a step down. Plays like any other “Double Dragon” or “Ikari Warriors” type game. A slight break from most, this time you’re getting out of a prison camp instead of infiltrating it.
