Anyone else used to play this game?
I loved it as a kid but could never even get past the second boss. Very difficult game.
Apparently it's Hokuto no Ken in the original version, but the translators changed the names of the characters and named the game Last Battle instead, which explains why the dialogue makes absolutely no sense.

Jump kick is OP. I do agree it is a pretty bastard hard game (and also mediocre) but it had a lot of potential.

Just like Black Belt on the master system.
I had no idea why the enemies exploded but boy, I loved it.

This is a game that would be better with some extra lives and continues. It's already hard as balls, and the fact that you have to complete it all in one flawless run is ludicrous.
>could never even get past the second boss.
Is that the fat guy with a floating ball thing? I think you have to power up first. I don't remember how, but I think if you kill enough people, Kenshiro rips his shirt and becomes stronger.

There was also that one woman boss that needed to be attacked using certain attacks in a specific order in order to actually get some damage to stick. It made no sense in Black Belt, but as it turns out the boss was originally Souther, a character that in the comicshad motherfucking dextrocardia situs inversus totalisinvalidating the main characters' pressure point-based attacks and making him nearly invincible untilthey figure out they just need to reverse the pressure point locations
The original game is still interesting to play: there's tons of different visuals and locations, and a whole boss that didn't make it into Black Belt since he's an actual giant and wouldn't work in the localization's "realistic" setting

Yeah, if you defeat enough mobs he rips his shirt and when you attack he throws a flurry of punches or kicks.
But that still won't help much if you don't know the attack patterns of the bosses and how to defeat them.
