Ninjas in the UK in back in 1992?

Wasn't the word "ninja" outlawed/banned in the United Kingdom back in those days, at lest in stories and games for kids (The TMNT became TMHT).

I concur that the TMNT became "hero turtles" in the UK around this time, but I don't know if that was due to legal or marketing reasons. matturn 11:34, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Another mean of Zool....

Zool was named the ghost's headquarters in the film "Ghostbusters".

Mental Block

I don't know much about these games beyond playing the first, badly, but 'Mental Block' doesn't need such a prosaic explanation. It was already a phrase, synonymous with "Artist's" and "Writer's" block, and is not a 'play' on anything. 194.221.212.20 (talk) 12:08, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

I agree. "Mental Block" is a standard phrase and is self-explanatory.--Kaleb.G (talk) 22:04, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Yup. I'm gonna take it out. I'm guessing you guys already did, but someone put it back? Whatever, it's ridiculous as it is. 86.139.144.226 (talk) 13:36, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Game Gear merge

I vote to merge the Game Gear version into this article. The info there is mostly duplicate of info in this article. We could keep a link to the box art if needed. No other port of Zool has an article. The Game Gear version doesn't need one. On another topic, I do suggest creating a new article for Zool 2. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kaleb.G (talk • contribs) 22:07, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

Not an ant

I've read from various computer magazines that Zool is not supposed to be an ant. However I don't own the game myself and can't verify whether the game calls him an ant. What is the real situation on this? — JIP | Talk 14:32, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

You're correct, I've removed the word ant. --Jmstylr 15:43, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

Arcade game?

I've removed the reference to Zool being an arcade machine because as far as I know it wasn't. If anyone can find a source for this, please add it back in. Cheers, Miremare 20:52, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

According to http://uk.gamespot.com/arcade/action/zool/index.html there is an coin-op arcade machine. There is a photo of it on the left side. This link was on this page; I'll add the system back in. --Kaleb.G (talk) 22:01, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
