That was really a good podcast, Flack. At times, I remember playing the arcade version of Zaxxon at some arcades when I was a kid. Of course today, I can play Zaxxon under Mame.
I remember playing Zaxxon 3D for the Sega Master System when I was a kid. I believe there are some Android ports of Zaxxon. Yet, these ports of Zaxxon need a really good phone to play them since the Android port is kind of large.
Curiously, the other version of Zaxxon for the C64 (the one by Synapse, who presumably had the magnetic media rights) is far superior to Sega’s conversion of their own game. Try out Synapse’s! I think you’ll dig it!
