Saw this on Time Extension and wanted to make sure everyone saw it. More Games beyond Tiger-Heli will be showing up on the 2600+ from Atari. I am having so much fun with my 2600+ I’m going to probably have to pick up these games also. – Ryan Burger – OSG Publisher
Three more Toaplan games are set to receive brand-new ports for the Atari 2600+, 7800, and 7800+, according to Plaion’s senior business development manager, Ben Jones.
Back in July of this year, Plaion published a new version of Toaplan’s 1985 vertical shoot-’em-up, Tiger-Heli, across all three of the retro platforms, marking the first time the game had been commercially available for each of these systems.
Earlier this month, however, on the Atari Age Forums, Jones told forum members that this wasn’t all Plaion had in store for Atari fans, with Plaion also successfully having signed a “multi-game” deal with Tatsujin (the current rights holders of Toaplan’s back catalog), allowing them to produce even more ports in the future, which were later revealed to be based on Slap Fight (1986), Flying Shark (1987), and Twin Cobra (1987) (thanks Atari Scene News/Gaowing for the spot).
