History.dat entry:
Moon Patrol (c) 1982 Williams Electronics, Incorporated..
Export version by Williams Electronics for North America. Game developed in Japan by Irem. For more information about the game itself, please see the original Irem entry.
- TECHNICAL -
The Williams Moon Patrol cabinet is a similar design to the one used on "Joust", but with a slightly thicker control panel. This title features painted sideart (a scene showing a moon buggy being attacked, which is done in several shades of blue), and uses a horizontal monitor. The marquee shows another moon scene (this one done up in Marvel comics style graphics) of a yellow moon buggy attacking a hovercraft, with a purple space castle in the background (All of those things are different colors than the ones actually in the game, they probably neglected to show the graphic artist the actual game). The control panel uses a single 2-Way joystick which is mounted centrally, fire and jump buttons are on either side (meaning you can play this title with either hand).
- TRIVIA -
Moon Patrol was released in June 1982 in North America by Williams, under license from Irem.
- PORTS -
NOTE: Only ports released in North America are listed here. For ports released outside of North America, please see the original Irem entry.
