DEVELOPMENT HISTORY

Star Strike is the Atari version of the Intellivision Star Strike cartridge.


FUN FACT: Star Strike is the only M Network Atari release not based on a licensed title to have the same name as its Intellivision counterpart.

FUN FACT: The Atari 2600 was originally called simply the Atari Video Game System (VCS). The 2600 designation was added later. Star Strike was the first M Network Atari release to declare on the box "For Your Atari 2600 Game System" instead of "For Your Atari Video Game System."
