Zero Wing (ゼロウィング) is an infamous shoot 'em up video game developed by Toaplan. Initially released in arcades in 1989 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 in 1991. 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.
Gameplay
and 
shoot. 
fires a suction beam that will trap enemies, allowing the ship to destroy them by hurling it at other enemies. With the ZIGs, sub-ships that are gotten early in the game can both fire shots and the suction beam at the same time.
Translation
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 in coherent english, so when the 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".
