Title: Videopac 70 "Terrahawks: The Second Assault" released on car

From the press release:

QuoteHi Videopac collectors,

Videopac 70 "Terrahawks: The Second Assault" has been released on cart in a limited run of 100 copies. This is a former Videopac prototype from the early 1980s and maybe this game was planned as a sequel to Videopac 51 "Terrahawks" back then.

As always, the game comes with cartridge, original style label, Videopac plus inlay and manual. This is a must for every Videopac collector!

If you haven't already bought the game at Retroevent in Holland or ordered it on the Videopac forum, you can order it now via mail order through my website.

You can find all infos here: www.classic-consoles-center.at/videopac (//http)

By the way: A few copies of my two previous releases Videopac 8+ "Baseball" (with additional background graphics) and Videopac 66+ "Route 66" are still available too. Get them as long as stock lasts, no more will be made!

Best regards,
Dieter from Classic Consoles Center

They did a very nice job with this.  Here's the picture of what you get if you order the game:

I don't own a Videopac but it's nice to see its homebrew community also dedicates a lot of effort when new games get released.  It's unfortunate the game will not work for NTSC consoles, though. 

Here is a video of the game that I found on YouTube to give an idea of the gameplay:

It is indeed a nice box.  I had to dig through to find the picture.  Not sure I like how they organized things.
