Elevator Action is a platform-shooter game released in arcades by Taito in 1983. The player assumes the role of Agent 17, a spy infiltrating a 30 story building filled with elevators and enemy agents who emerge from closed doors. The goal is to collect secret documents from specially marked rooms, then escape the building.

This port is same on both these systems, that's why I have included them together. There is a Fujitsu FM-7 port out there are well, but I couldn't find it, but it should be exactly they same as this as these 3 systems were Japan exclusive.
