Remember those delightful hours you'd spend in the Arcade, pumping countless quarters into classics like Joust and Defender? Well, get ready to relive those happy days on the small screen, since both games have made the transition to the Game Boy and Game Boy Color!
In Joust, you control a knight who must defeat his opponents with the help of his flying steed. Use the buttons to increase your altitude and knock your opponents from their mounts, then grab the magical eggs left behind to earn points. When you're done taking on the computer, snag a friend, grab a Link Cable, and go head-to-head for some real competition!
In Defender, you are Earth's last line of defense against insidious alien invaders. Blast incoming UFOs with your laser cannon and mega-bombs, and keep the innocent civilians from being turned into hideous mutants!
With new color graphics and tried-and-true game play, Arcade Hits: Joust/Defender attempts to recreate the magic of the early 1980s! ~ Colin Williamson, All Game Guide
