Millipede ports the Atari vertical shoot on HAL Laboratory NES with its target archer facing the giant millipede and invading insects. The representation offers fixed pattern vertical scrolling with multi directional shooting in a founding arcade formula descendant of Centipede. Honest for NES shoot fans, curiosity of the 8 bit HAL catalog.

Collector interest

An NES adaptation of the Atari arcade classic and a sequel to Centipede, Millipede arrived in 1988 under the Atari label, a relatively rare presence on a machine rival to Nintendo. Its desirability owes less to the game than to membership in the small batch of Atari titles released on NES, tracked by arcade-port collectors. The inflated sealed value contrasts with a very common cart that holds no scarcity of its own.
