NAME: Fist of the North Star
AUTHOR/VENDOR: Toei/Shoei System
RELEASED: 1989
TYPE: Fighting
LANGUAGE: English and Japanese

PREMISE: It is in the days of the nuclear winter, when the lands are ruled and policed by superhuman heroes with fantastic fighting skills, one hero must battle his way through countless foes to rid the land of evil. Based on the legendary anime series of the same name, which was noted for its extreme violence.

IMPRESSIONS: Punch and kick your way through the side-scrolling scenes on your way to one-on-one arena bouts with the various level bosses. Decent graphics, but weak gameplay. I can't believe they left in the exploding heads! (Rage Games)

VARIATIONS: 
Hokouto no Ken 2 (original Japanese title)
Last Battle - Legend of the Final Hero (censored American version, most of the more violent content excised - including the aforementioned exploding heads)
