The 1989 PC MS-DOS conversion of Taito‘s classic arcade game Qix was programmed by the Alien Technology Group and is excruciatingly difficult. At least: that’s what I found.
Defender of the Crown, Commodore 64
The Commodore 64 conversion of Defender of the Crown is a celebrated retro gaming classic. Apart from loading times, there’s little to fault about it.
Q*bert 3, Super Nintendo
Q*Bert 3 was developed by Realtime Associates and released in 1992, and it was a bit of a missed opportunity in some respects.

This is the 1979, black and white arcade game, Basketball, as developed and manufactured by Atari Inc. It had two trackballs on the cabinet – one for each player.
