Why? Why? WHY?!!?

Graphics: 4 Sound: 3 Replay Value: 1 Notes: 1- or 2-player game; what a crappy game! Screen Shots

The most mindless game ever made for Intellivision has to be Sharp Shot. Even Kool‑Aid Man at least has some goal more than pressing the fire button. What a waste of a game. Visually, it's pleasing–the shaped, brown football is nice. Most of the sprites are swiped from other, good Intellivision games. That doesn't save this game. It's lame. Still, I'll post my lame scores for this lame game, in the 10 minutes I spent playing it just to generate some scores. Best Scores: Football Passing: 70; Space Gunner: 60; Submarine: 31; Maze Shoot: 29

A total of four Sharp Shot box variants have been documented.

	Mattel Electronics	5638-0920	1982	U.S.A.
Image not available.	Mattel Electronics	5638-0920-G1	1982	Hong Kong	Spotted, shockingly, in Hong Kong boxed copies
	Mattel Electronics	5638-0720	1982	U.S.A.	Reported and image contributed by BSRSteve; has part number similar to French-Canadian variations, but printed in U.S.A.; what strange manner of Sharp Shot manual is this?
	Mattel Electronics	5638-0720	1982	Hong Kong	French-Canadian; (it's still shrink-wrapped to the outside of a box, so possibly it's French only?)
Image not available.	Mattel Electronics	5638-0121	1982	Hong Kong	German version; NEED CONFIRMATION
Image not available.	Mattel Electronics	5638-0131	1982	Hong Kong	Italian version; title localized to "Tiro Di Precisione"; spotted in eBay auction
	Mattel Electronics	PC-5638-0920	1982	U.S.A.	PlayCable version; I can't believe they actually put this one on PlayCable!
	Intellivision Inc.	5638-0920-G1	None	U.S.A.	Accordion-style folding

The first difference between the two revisions (not pictured) is that the 'Object of the Games' page was moved from the back of the manual to the front in rev. G1.

Secondly, the screen shot for the Football Passing game was revised. Looks like the QB in the first printing had some trouble reading which players were receivers and which were cover folks.

The third change I've noticed is that some graphics were missing on the Submarine shoot game.

A total of three Sharp Shot overlay variants have been documented.
