If you haven't already, check out the great Star Wars Gaming Retrospective at GameTrailers...

Part 1 covers the early Atari 2600 and Arcade games, while Part 2 covers every game from 1987 to date that focuses on the classic original movie trilogy. More episodes covering the many other SW games are coming soon apparently!

One game that was highlighted in the second installment was Namco's Famicom-exclusive take on the original Star Wars movie, which is somewhat wacky to say the least. I never knew this game existed until I saw the video, but as soon as I saw a game where Darth Vader turns up as an end-of-level boss on the first level but then changes into a scorpion, I just had to have it!

So I won a copy of the game on Ebay but I now need a Famicom-to-NES converter so that I can actually play it...
