Ballblazer adapts the Lucasfilm Games futuristic sport to NES with vehicles facing off in arenas to score points. The version keeps the sci-fi sport spirit of the original concept but the 8 bit conversion stays limited. Pleasant for 8 bit futuristic sport fans, original in the vehicle arena concept.
