Zero Wing is an infamous shoot 'em up video game developed by Toaplan. Initially released in arcades by Taito where it enjoyed a reasonable amount of success, it was ported to the TurboGrafx-CD in Japan, and to the Sega Mega Drive in both Japan and Europe. Though not officially released in America, the European release of the Mega Drive port is not region locked, and so will run on a North American Genesis console.
Though all three versions are essentially the same (apart from various graphical/audio changes between the hardware) the Mega Drive version is notable for giving the game an introductory cutscene. When released in Europe, this cutscene was not translated correctly, so when the creation and distribution of emulators became popular in 1999, the game re-emerged to become an internet phenomenon, specifically for the Engrish line "All your base are belong to us".
