With the games success, H.E.R.O. was ported to other systems including the Atari 5200, Colecovision, Apple II, the Atari 8-bit family, Commodore 64, MSX and ZX Spectrum.\u00a0 Sega had even had the software re-written so it could feature on the SG-1000 gaming console in Japan in 1985, while the gameplay was identical, Sega changed the backpack from a helicopter to a jetpack but the rest of the game stayed the same.<\/p>\n
More recently on the next gen consoles version of H.E.R.O. has been included in compilations such as Activision Anthology.\u00a0 In June 2010, the Atari 2600 version of H.E.R.O. was re-released for Microsoft’s Game Room service for the Xbox 360 and Games for Windows Live.<\/p>\n
