Arcade Hits: Joust & Defender - Game Boy Color

Two arcade classics make their way to the Game Boy Color with JOUST & DEFENDER, both direct translations of the arcade games. In JOUST, you must pilot a knight that sits atop an ostrich-like bird. The goal is to smack the other knights on the screen and turn them into eggs, and then collect those eggs before they hatch into another knight. DEFENDER calls for you to protect humanity from aliens, piloting a ship across the mountainous landscape and destroying the alien ships. If the aliens capture a human and take it to the top of the screen, a hard-to-kill mutant is born. The easy-to-learn, hard-to- master gameplay that made both games huge hits remains intact. If you enjoyed playing either one of these games, you should get a copy of JOUST & DEFENDER.
