Zero Wing (ゼロウイング) is a 1989 arcade shoot 'em up video game developed by Toaplan. It was ported to the Sega Mega Drive in both Japan and Europe in 1991.
Gameplay
and 
shoot. 
fires a suction beam that will trap enemies, allowing the ship to grab enemies. Letting go of launches the enemy at high speeds, allow ing you to destroy other enemies with it. Enemies drop powerups when destroyed; the first powerup per life will always be subships that shoot with you but do not have the suction beam.
While there are no gameplay differences between the arcade version and its ports, the Mega Drive port added an in-game storyline with cutscenes. This is the game's present claim to fame: the European release is legendary on the Internet for a disastrous translation, especially in its introduction scene, where each line has been played with in some way shape or form (for instance, "All your base are belong to us." where it should be something along the lines of "We have conquered all your bases.").
