ZX Spectrum games that appeared on other platforms

[Juan F. Ramirez]

I still have a MSDOS version of Psion Chess.

You could play it both in 2D or in a cool 3D mode, and it was from mid 80s, IIRC.

I know that the more up-to-date you go, it seems it's harder to find games linked to the Speccy era, but you do usually tend to find a package of retrogaming-themed collections on just about EVERY platform (lots on the live services from X-Box 360 and X-Box One).

The two behemoths of retrogaming - Space Invaders and Pac Man - must have appeared on virtually every platform that's ever existed.

The good candidates to check if they were released in some form on modern platforms:

- Tetris
- Pacman
- Lemmings
- Sim City
- Street Fighter 2
- Final Fight

But I don't know how to search for it. I checked Mobygames as they could have such info. Unfotunately it turned out that
their search engine is very primitive, not allowing for any more advanced query.

They have an API. But it seems like normal people aren't allowed to use it.

Or you could try a different database. Here are some games that also appeared on the Xbox 360.

Here is another one.
Sega SG-1000: Bomb Jack

Is this about one game per platform only?
The SG-1000 also had the following games:
– Elevator Action
– HERO
– Hyper Sports
– The Legend of Kage
– Wonder Boy
– Zaxxon

Earth Shaker appeared on the Xbox 360 and I don't think you can get more Speccy than that really.

Yeah, do feel free to nominate more games. I was trying to get the best game for each platform but can't really say I did that!

I sometimes play Bomb Jack on the Sega SG-1000 system on the RetroPie I have plugged into my telly. I think you win with that!

Space Invaders on the PSP?
