To my knowledge (unless they suddenly appear via the silicon fairy), there are no cart versions of Jr Pacman or Satan's Hollow. I don't think there's an official conversion of Pengo or Space Invaders full stop, let alone on any format.

I compiled the list from various sources around the 'net so it could very well be erroneous. I'll make note of the ones that you listed.

 

Is anyone authoring a definitive price guide for C64 games?

[Mayhem]

Go see the online guide @ Digital Press, that's my work too

Yes as a matter of fact I did this morning and filtered on the "Arcade Ports". There are three that I overlooked but do you know if they are in cart format?:

 

Lazarian

Mr. TNT

Rootin' Tootin'

The only entries in the Commodore databases for Digital Press are cartridges (baring the two CDs on the C64). I own all three of those, so yes, they definitely exist as carts. None are that hard to find loose, but boxed you'll be pushing it for the two HES titles, quite uncommon to find those complete.

Why is this called "Zaxxon Zaxxon"?

Looks like an inverted label, nothing more.

[Mayhem]

Yeah, label is on the wrong way around. The top part should be on the spine.

Yes the label is upside down! And it seems that ALL of them are that way, or atleast the majority. Weird...

Are you the same mayhem (mayhemuk) that did the write up on the brief history of the c-128

 

Unfortunately i can't remember the link, but it mentioned a commodore spin of company, periprheral by designs which eventually rebranded as 'esoniqs' (the well known 80's sound chip co)

Hey rmaerz, I have Frogger, Pole Position and Robotron 2084 for the C64. PM me if you're interested.

[carmel_andrews]

Lazarian was defo a release....I remember playing it in hamleys and in some games shop in stevenage (brings back the memories)

[Mayhem]

Yeah most of the Zaxxon labels are wrong, the three carts I've had in my time all have been like that.

 

@Carmel - I did the C64 piece for Retrogamer, but nothing on Ensoniq. Could have been Shaun Bebbington or someone similar...
