Home Versions of SW:TAG

[Sanriostar]

Just fiddled with the 2600 version of Star Wars: The Arcade Game for a bit.
Can you use 'the Force' in any of the home versions?
Can you flip the vertical axis on any of the controls?

I think there was a Colecovision version of Star Wars The Arcade Game, and I also believe on certain editions of Rogue Squadron III for the GameCube has a port of the Arcade game as a bonus feature as well.

I'm not sure about the full game, but the promotional demo disc had the game as a bonus feature.
I don't think the controls could be inverted.

I guess I should have been more concise:

On the Parker Bros. home versions (2600,5200/Atari8B,CV, C64 et.al.), can you use the Force? I know about the emulated versions on Rebel Strike.

I wasn't aware there was any way to use "The Force" on the arcade game. What does it do?

When flying in the trench towards the vulnerable exhaust port, "USE THE FORCE" is spelled in green until you fire a shot. If you dodge the fireballs, do not fire any shots and use one shot to fire your torpedoes in to the exhaust port, you get a sizable "USE THE FORCE" bonus. This is encouraged by Obi Wan himself at the beginning of the trench sequence.

I don't remember about the promotional version either, as I recall I only ever tried Star Wars The Arcade Game on that. The full game has SW:TAG, Empire Strikes Back:TAG, and Return of the Jedi. SW & ESB are unlockable but Jedi needs a passcode.

By the way I have the Colecovision one and yes when you get in the trench and you start toward the vent it has USE THE FORCE on the top of the screen. If you only use torpedo and do not shoot any of the fire balls then you get a USE THE FORCE bonus.
