Trivia
- 10 Computer Hits was supported by a television campaign in the UK, a unique move that set the title apart and doubtless helped to shift a number of extra units.
- The disk version of this compilation featured only 6 games and, as the title of 10 Computer Hits fell woefully short, this version was released as 6 Computer Hits and has its own lineage.
- Beau Jolly also released the title on the C64 & ZX Spectrum but with different line-ups. The ZX Spectrum version contained the following games: Brian Jacks Superstar Challenge; Chuckie Egg; Jasper; Project Future; Overlords; Wriggler; Harrier Attack; Braxx Bluff; Skool Daze & The Sorcerer of Claymorgue Castle
- The C64 version meanwhile featured the following titles: Brian Jacks Superstar Challenge; Ancipital; Seaside Special; Jinn Genie; Special Operations; Harrier Attack; Hustler; Chuckie Egg; Space Pilot & The Sorcerer of Claymorgue Castle
