Notes
"As for the Mini Arcade series of games (of which there is also a Plane & Tank Battle- Radio Shack never made any of their games, just put their name on other company's products), I've never found a good record of exactly when they were released. Best you could probably do for any of those would be just to say 'early 1980's'
All of the Mini Arcade games with that same shape have the 'Model 737' molded in the back of them. I think it was like an 'assortment' model number, it's not unique the title of the game, but to the case design."
