Release Date RRP Code

Heavy Nova (ヘビーノバ) is a 1991 action game for the Sharp X68000 by Micronet. It was ported to the Sega Mega CD as one of the system's two launch titles (the other being Wolf Team's Sol-Feace); the Mega CD port was not released outside Japan. Micronet subsequently ported it to the Sega Mega Drive for an American release in 1992.

You play as a giant mech beating up other mechs of various sizes. A punches and B kicks. Up rockets up for as long as the button is held; you will eventually come back down.
