Universal Arcade Facts @universalfacts.bsky.social · 19d

Unlicensed releases of Cosmic Avenger, Lady Bug, and Space Panic for the Splicevision, a clone of the ColecoVision sold in Brazil.

A scan of the cartridge artwork for "Bombardeio", a Brazilian bootleg release of the ColecoVision port of the 1981 Universal arcade game, Cosmic Avenger; the artwork does not appear to bare any resemblance to any official art made for the game.

A scan of the cartridge artwork for "Papa Tudo", a Brazilian bootleg release of the ColecoVision port of the 1981 Universal arcade game, Lady Bug; the artwork present is a crudely redrawn version of the art of the protagonist used for the flyer and backglass.

A scan of the cartridge artwork for "Panico Cosmico", a Brazilian bootleg release of the ColecoVision port of the 1980 Universal arcade game, Space Panic; the artwork is a loose approximation of the arcade game's kickplate artwork.

there's a longer version of the song featured in "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Coming Out Of Their Shells", probably the most important concert documentary after Scorsese's "The Last Waltz"

I love that there's an entry on Genius dot com for the song's lyrics, which helpfully informs you that no, you should not feed pizza to a turtle

Picture from Genius dot com featuring annotated lyrics for "Pizza Power". A section is highlighted: "But pizza power / A flying saucer food delight / Pizza power / Oh that's what makes us feel alright". The annotation reads: Contrary to what this song condones, not only is pizza something an actual turtle shouldn't be fed, but pizza is not a very healthy choice of food for people (unless you get it with a lot of vegetables and tomato sauce, then cut down on the cheese).
