Another Neo Geo game, which was released only to the arcade right before the turn of the century.  Another unique title in the Neo Geo MVS library!

Atari [Falcon] ST Cracktro [035] Vectronix from Transarctica [Falcon]


This cracktro is by Tristar & Red Sector Inc., and Vectronix.  Very few Cracktros for the Falcon exist.  No scroller here; it is just text info on a variety of splash screen, with a nice tune!

Alien Storm - Atari ST [026] PlayThru



Sega's Alien Storm is a port of the arcade game done by Tiertex for US Gold.  The game looks nice. The pixel art is very well drawn.  I think that might be the end of the positives.

Astro Warrior - Sega Master System [017] PlayThru



Here we have what was, at least in the US, a pack in game with the early Sega Master Systems, along with Hang On, which did not include the light phaser.  Otherwise, Astro Warrior was released as a single game for purchase in the US.

Sengoku - SNK Neo Geo [001] PlayThru



Ah, here is the game that first introduced me to the Neo Geo MVS in the arcade.  Sengoku was, I believe, the 13th title released by SNK for the Neo Geo cartridge systems, the MVS and the home console.

Atari ST Cracktro [034] Replicants from Alien Syndrome


Here we have a simple Cracktro with scroller and an image using very simple colors.  I wish more color was used in the image, but the art does get the job done!
