Hokuto No Ken: Review

Hokuto no Ken literally translates as 'Fist of the North Star" meaning that although Hokuto no Ken 2 - Seikimatsu Kyuuseishu Densetsu came out in the United States as Fist of the North Star, Hokuto no Ken is actually the first game in the series of Fist of the North Star games. However in Japan it is marketed as just "Hokuto no Ken' were they do also sell "Hokuto no Ken 2" as "Fist of the North Star" the Japan version of which is much harder to beat than the American "Fist Of the North Star", that is not this game.
