Origins and Other Ports
Bōken Jima is a port of the arcade game Wonder Boy, developed by Westone (known at the time as "Escape") and published by Sega on March 3rd, 1986. While Sega held the rights to the Wonder Boy name, Westone had the rights to the game itself. Westone worked with Hudson to port the game under a different name, replacing the main character with Hudson spokesman Takahashi Meijin. Hudson retained the rights to the Bōken Jima name and continued to release sequels more similar to the original, while Westone continued to work with Sega on sequels to the original Wonder Boy.

Wonder Boy was brought to all of Sega's 8-bit machines, first on the SG-1000 and then later on the Mark III. 4 years after it's original arcade release, it was brought to Sega's Game Gear handheld. Wonder Boy was also brought to a number of home computers by Activision.
