Epic gameplay video for Hokuto no Ken: Hokuto Shinken DenshÅsha no Michi, the Fist of the North Star digital comic game for Nintendo DS (the good stuff starts around the 01:50 mark). This released in Japan back in 2008 and no one cared, but my love of stupid game ideas made sure that this title was always on my mind.
How exactly does one “play” a digital comic based on Fist of the North Star? Well, as manga panels pop up, marks appear over different enemies and objects, enabling you to hit vital points or complete other actions. Also, you get to hear Kenshiro make a lot of Bruce Lee noises.
My favorite part is around 02:45, when Kenshiro is wailing on some giant dude with like a hundred slaps, then you have to draw out a gesture to catch the girl he was holding hostage. Afterwards, as the brute laughs that you hardly left a mark, you get to turn your back to him and whisper, “You’re already dead” right before he explodes.

I remember visiting a “computer convention” in 1995, thinking I could maybe find a good deal on my first computer, but that was not the case. One great thing about the event, though, is you couldn’t throw a rock around the show floor without hitting a pile of 1.44 MB disks filled with Doom mods — Doom with Barney, Doom with the Simpsons, all sorts of ridiculous shit.
Apparently someone released a Fist of the North Star mod for Doom several years ago, and now some bored programmer has ported the game to the Nintendo DS. Here’s a music video/trailer of the original PC version that probably makes the hack seem awesomer than it actually is (notice the lack of gameplay clips):
