Fist of the North Star, released in Japan as Hokuto no Ken Part 2 is a 1987 side-scrolling beat 'em up developed by Shouei System for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It based on the manga and anime series of the same name. The game is actually second Hokuto no Ken Famicom (NES) game released in Japan and the only one released in North America. The game is based on the second anime series, Hokuto no Ken 2, and covers primarily the Imperial Capital arc of the series, where Kenshiro faces off against the Gento K?ken fighters. Because the series was still airing when the game was initially made, the game only goes up to the beginning of the Land of Asura arc. The final boss is the Nameless Asura, who was only a minor villain in the series. [source:wikipedia]
