Talk:1942 (video game)

statement that micronics was "known for making shoddy nes ports" seems nnpov

I removed "The Nintendo Entertainment System port of 1942 was released at Nintendo's behest on the Game Boy Advance as part of the NES Classics series (Famicom Mini in Japan).". There is no Game Boy Advance port of this game.

Can someone comment on if all the ports also have same music? The main theme from the 633 Squadron movie? I added this info because for 10 years I thought the theme was original to the game, not really surprising considering how so many original c64 songs would pass for a famous movie score easily - proven by how they are being arranged for play by real orchestras today.

For reference here links to the music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMZ_kvO5S3w c64 music http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8ARxDGtoPU movie version

Matter of taste but I'd say the c64 version is better. Proper huge orchestra version would be even better but I've not found one yet, only some mediocre medium size orchestra versions.

On the Commodore 64, a later 1942 re-release by Encore featured a different theme/ingame music theme from the 633 Squadron one. Possible copyright claim? The second theme can be found on YouTube, but as I'm not knowledgeable about the linking policies, I'll leave it to someone more knowledgeable if the issue is deemed important enough to mention. 91.158.62.50 (talk) 23:17, 2 December 2019 (UTC)Reply
