This game is not much more than a graphical hack of "Saboteur [Model CX26119]". Differences are mostly in the characters. Instead of Hotot the robot the player controls B.A. (Mr. T) from the A-Team.

TECHNICAL

GAME ID: CX26133

TRIVIA

It's unknown why Atari decided to change Saboteur into The A-Team, assumably because they wanted a game based on the then popular The A-Team TV show and didn't want to wait for a new game to be developed. At that point Saboteur was ready for release and Atari decided that they would attempt to integrate A-Team characters into a game that was already finished. Unfortunately, The A-Team was also never released.

TIPS AND TRICKS

Holding LEFT+RIGHT or UP+DOWN and pressing FIRE causes your shot to remain on the screen. If you do this 4 times, you’ll 'use up' all your shots and be unable to fire.
