TRIVIA

Parker Brothers announced Atari 2600, Colecovision, and Commodore 64 versions of this arcade game, and prototype boxes were shown in a CES press kit and a 1984 Parker Brothers catalog. According to a Parker Brothers internal marketing release schedule, this game was scheduled for a September 1984 release. According to Phil Orbanes, former Senior VP of Research & Development at Parker Brothers, the VCS version received 'some coding' at the very least, and may have been completely finished. The programmer is unfortunately unknown, and as yet no prototypes of this game have surfaced.
