Cobra Command, known as Thunder Storm in Japan, is a 1983 FMV arcade game by Data East. Wolf Team ported it to the Sega Mega-CD in 1992, keeping the Cobra Command name in the US and Europe but renaming it Thunder Storm FX (サンダーストームＦＸ) in Japan.

History

It was first released on Sega LaserDisc hardware presumably as an upgrade for Astron Belt (MAME has Astron Belt as this game's parent). The following year, Data East released the game on both their own LaserDisc hardware and Gottlieb's M.A.C.H. 3 hardware as well.

In Europe Cobra Command was later bundled with Sol-Feace, a horizontal shoot-'em-up, as Sol-Feace / Cobra Command. As European Mega-CD games were distributed in jewel case quad boxes, one "half" of the box was devoted to Cobra Command, and the other to Sol-Feace. In America it was bundled with Road Avenger.

Sequels and re-releases

G-mode, a mobile games developer who purchased Data East's intellectual property after their bankruptcy, has since ported it to iOS.
