Super Cobra
Original System: Atari 400/800
Port of the 1981 arcade game by Konami, Super Cobra is the
sequel to Scramble in which you must fly a helicopter through a
dangerous mountain stronghold and grab the bag of 'booty' at the
end. Along the way you'll make
friends with a variety of people shoot and bomb the
stuffing out of everything you see. Simple but fun.
The Atari 400/800 and 5200 versions of Super Cobra are identical
except for one small difference. In the Atari 400/800 port
you move faster than the scrolling ground when moving backwards
whereas in the 5200 port you move at the same speed. While
it may sound like the 400/800 port gives you an advantage, it's
actually more a hindrance and can really screw you up at the
higher levels. This bug was fixed in the 5200 port.
