To the Earth
Nintendo Entertainment System · 1990
About this game
In the year 2050 the Earth has been attacked by the villainous Raggosians and it is your job to save the planet! You will need to pilot your ship, The Tempest, to the planets Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, and Earth in order to retrieve certain minerals which can be used to fight the Raggosians.
The Raggosians will be trying to stop you from reaching these destinations, though, so you need to use the Nintendo zapper to fight back.

Numerous (and very fast!) enemy ships will fly by on the screen and attempt to destroy your ship.
You need to shoot the ships and incoming missiles before your ship takes too much damage.
From time to time a comet will fly by, and if you shoot this a temporary barrier will be formed that protects your ship from enemy fire.
Occasionally you can also earn a smart bomb which appears in the bottom of the screen and destroys all enemies if shot.
Each level ends with a large boss which will take multiple hits to destroy.
About Nintendo Entertainment System
The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.
Gamevaro tracks To the Earth for Nintendo Entertainment System with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding To the Earth to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NES release dates back to 1990.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
