Contents 1 Changes 2 Remakes 3 Zaksund... 4 Zaxxon 3D

[edit] Changes

reformatted page, added bootleg info and two similar games.--4.250.90.32 19:50, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

also added info on Table Top and handheld Games and the Boardgame

[edit] Remakes

"The 2003 Retro Remakes competition produced a great clone for linux and windows." Is there a link to said remake?

Link should be more accessible now.--Kms 20:29, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Zaksund...

"A clone of the game was released on the TRS-80 Color Computer as Zaksund."

I don't think this blurb should be included in the article, unless we start to list every clones of the game for every platforms. Zaksund is not particularly notable.

There is an official Sega-blessed port of Zaxxon for the TRS-80 Color Computer programmed by Steve Bjork, and it's not Zaksund, which was rather crappy compared to the official CoCo port.

The official Zaxxon TRS-80 CoCo port is the one featured in a screenshot in this article, maybe the Zaksund reference could be removed and TRS-80 CoCo be added in the list of official versions.

[edit] Zaxxon 3D

I don't think Zaxxon 3D should link back to this page, it was a totally different game for the Master System..I don't know how to change it though...

It might be a good idea to mention if the arcade games were vertical or horizontal...this is a very important stat...! 69.107.104.206 (talk) 04:42, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
