Mecha-8


Screen shot from ColecoVision (Real Hardware)

A great game I have discovered, Mecha-8.  As far as I can tell, the game has only been released for 3 systems; the MSX, ColecoVision, and Sega Master System.  None of these I would call mainstream game systems today.  

Mecha-8 by Nanochess for the Colecovision uses enhanced sound from Opcode's super game module (SGM). This is incorporated in the version that is released for ColecoVision Flashback by AtGames (both 60 game and 61 game version).

My AtGames ColecoVision Flashback 61

This is a scrolling shooter with outstanding game play, music, graphics, variety in environment, and fun 'bosses' for such a game.  I can't image what this game would have done for ColecoVision if it had come out in 1983.
