Fantastic game.

I always struggled catching the weapons thing at the end of a level. My older brother was the best at this game.

Ha Ha, thank you so much for upping this! Trying to explain to my 6 year old the video games we had to put up with (ok.. cherish the hell out of) back in the 80's was getting tricky. Wish I still had mine :(

@grumm70 I've read 2-3 things that someone's done that and something bad happened. What was it?

This things are freak'n awesome. I always wanted, but (with the exception of TOMY Pacman & Bandai Hit & Missile) never had any battery-op hand-held games. It's not like I was underprivileged or anything. I did have Atari 2600/5200, Commodore Vic20/64, Intellivision & Magnavox Odyssey & S/NES. I guess my folks thought they were a waste of $, & bought me consoles/carts instead. BTW, I think it's cool how they have simulators of these hand-helds that you can play on your PC. I have 100's. :-)

Last week I found mine still works after all these years! I had to get batteries, I don't know what the hell happened to the little four-way plug on the power supply...
