This game started as an arcade maze title released by Taito in 1989. It’s best known as a SNES game, though it originally appeared in arcades. Many SNES players might remember it as Cameltry, as the arcade version was later brought to the SNES and X68000 in 1992. However, it wasn’t released under that name in North America or Europe; instead, it was called On the Ball. Cameltry wasn’t a huge hit in arcades, and its SNES performance wasn’t much better – it simply wasn’t very popular. Despite this, it’s been re-released as part of Hamster’s Arcade Archives 2 series on those same platforms. Dedicated fans might already own it, as it was previously included in the Arcade Archives lineup.
During a surprise appearance at a special screening of Infinity War at SXSW London, Robert Downey Jr. explained that the new Marvel project, Doomsday, will be a fresh start.

Downey Jr., who famously played Tony Stark throughout the Infinity Saga and will now portray the villain Victor Von Doom, believes they have a good chance of succeeding, especially with directors Joe and Anthony Russo involved. This sentiment mirrored comments made by Joe Russo at the same event, where he emphasized that Doomsday is essentially a reboot, aiming to feel completely new and independent from previous films (via CBR).

The trailers for Supergirl have shown a lot of the story’s space-based chase, but they’ve left out one key element from the comics – until now. Warner Bros. recently released new posters for premium formats like Dolby Cinema, and fans who know the comics will notice something important in the artwork. The posters show Supergirl flying through space with several suns in the background, and one of them is distinctly green. This color is a direct reference to a dangerous sun containing Kryptonite, which orbits the planet Barenton – a powerful weapon created to harm Superman, as seen in the comics by Tom King and Bilquis Evely.
