Star Warrior for Sale/Trade [USA/91107]

[jasonbar]

Howdy-

I picked up a nice boxed Vectrex from a fellow on Craigslist today.  He had a really nice condition Star Warrior cocktail for sale.

I played it briefly & took a few bad pics w/ my phone.  It's clean & the P1 controls work (didn't test P2) & it has an external credit button & the picture's good (tube needs degaussing) & the sound works.

His asking price is $850 & he says that's firm.  He realizes that it's rare & is in no rush to sell it.  He's also interested in a trade for a 1970s Seeburg jukebox that plays 45s.

PM me if you want his contact information & I'll pass it along.  I'm not the seller, & I'm not interested in it.  Just passing along info in case somebody wants it.


Thanks,

Which is it, Space Warrior or Star Warrior?  I think I remember playing this. In any case, I can't find it in MAME.

Star Warrior.

When I played it, it didn't seem 100% foreign to me--I think it's a hack or a ripoff of some other game, but I'm darned if I know which game...

An astute KLOV poster noted that this game is a rip-off/clone of Space Firebird.  Indeed it is.



To the best of my recollection, the graphics are even the same.

Thanks,
