Description
Action platformer featuring Jack battling enemies in a temple while collecting bombs. Published by Tecmo, released in the USA in 1987. Jack in side-scrolling view with bombs as main weapon in temple levels. NES port of Tecmo's Mighty Bomb Jack arcade.
The North American version of Tecmo's port of the Mighty Bomb Jack arcade game, this NTSC edition shows a much higher sealed value than its PAL counterpart, a sign of steady US demand for Tecmo's bouncing platformer. The cart stays common and cheap, but the complete boxed object from the early NES era interests first-wave collectors tracking Tecmo's US catalog.
