Star Wars: The Arcade Game



What's the ad for?
Star Wars: The Arcade Game for the Atari 2600 and 5200
Year
1984

The Scoop
 So this appears to be a game, at least in the arcade version, with a history of tournament play as well as Guinness World Record involvement. I mean, a dude named Brandon Erickson played this game for 54 hours straight...on a single credit. They are even selling DVD's of the performance. The game must be good right? Right?

Star Wars: Jedi Arena


This ad is from the back cover of Super-Villain Classics #1 (1983), which featured the origin of Galactus, a villain that would strike fear even in Darth Vader's eyes.


Okay, maybe not...but Galactus is still pretty cool...to me.


Jedi Arena looks like glorified Pong. Anyone care to differ? ThinkGeek has some pretty cool replica Lightsabers available but they're not cheap. However earlier this month a new, cheaper version released by Hasbro was reviewed on the Comics Alliance website. For now I guess I'll be stuck with playing Jedi Arena.

The Star Wars Collection

I'm tired from the comic con so here is a softball. Be the most fashionable kid in school when you wear items from the Star War collection.
