Jetman

Wow. I just found out that Solar Jetman, a neat game for the Nintendo Entertainment System, is the third in its series. The first game was Jetpac, the second was Lunar Jetman, and both of them were released for an 8-bit PC back in 1983. Judging by screenshots, the first two games look like platformers as opposed to the space-flight gameplay of Solar Jetman. All three games are by Rare, although Jetpac and Lunar Jetman were released back when Rare was known as Ultimate Play The Game. I never would have guessed.
