Vic20 GTW titles are on average harder to find compared to similar gaming scenes like Intellivision, Atari VCS, let alone C64, therefore I deem useful the "vapourware" section from this old but still handy list of cartridges.

Some of the games presented, that may or may not fall into such category, are:

• Donkey Kong Jr
• Joust
• Mario Bros
• Track & Field
• Fort Apocalypse
• Popeye
• Repton

Clive Townsend recently and very kindly dug out a load of photos of his unreleased Spectrum conversion of ‘Trojan’, which show all the huge promise that the conversion had.  So following on from the previous reports, check these lot out (Click each image for a larger version). 

Will we be soon seeing this Spectrum game saved?… Well watch this space it seems!
