Super Air Zonk: Rockabilly-Paradise, released in Japan as CD Denjin: Rockabilly Tengoku (Japanese: PC原人シリーズ CD電人 ～ロカビリー天国～), is a horizontally scrolling shooter developed by Dual and published by Hudson Soft. It was released for the TurboGrafx-CD/TurboDuo in 1993, and was released on the Wii's Virtual Console on November 19, 2007 in North America, and on January 29, 2008 in Japan.[1]
Super Air Zonk is the sequel to the 1992 game Air Zonk, both of which are part of the Bonk series of games. As a sequel, Super Air Zonk contains all-new levels, assistants, and enemies, as well as a Red Book CD audio soundtrack consisting of rockabilly music. While the original Air Zonk relied heavily on parallax scrolling, Super Air Zonk has mostly single-plane backgrounds.[2]

Electronic Gaming Monthly gave the game a 5 out of 10, commenting that the game has very little action or intensity and is too easy by far.[3] GamePro also found the game to be too easy, but praised the controls, the animation, and the soundtrack, and noted that with only a slow trickle of games coming out for the Duo, owners of the console had little choice but to buy the game.[4]
