Jaime,

 

Your version:

is a pirate from Bermuda from Suntek:

which is a pirate of the original River Raid from Activision:

Wow, that game was pirated TWICE?

 

What, once wasn't good enough?

 

It makes me wonder just how many pirated carts of Atari 2600 games were made back in the day compared to official carts -- and how much money Atari and the other companies lost due to piracy. Someone should do a study on that someday. It would be impossible to know for sure, but some information would be fascinating.
