Hokuto No Ken Punching Game
Why didn't I think of this?! It took the geniuses at konami 15 years to hand craft this thing. (As a note, I recently tried this game. It is quite fun. You face enemies one on one and when you are supposed to hit a little red light will go off and the punch pad will swing out, then you are judged on if you hit it while the light was still on. It sounds easy, but when you have to do Ken's 1000 punch attack muscles become Jello)

Comments: Personally I think the best songs in the series are 'Heart of Madness'(not HEARTH!) and 'Purple Eyes'. These are both done by the 'Kodomo (Child) Band'. The music is rock. Also the movie has some orchestrated stuff that's pretty good...
Video Games
There are a lot of them. 7 on NES and SNES. There's even a PSX one too. If you want to play them them try looking around here...The NES ones are the most violent I've ever seen for Nintendo...http://www.mameworld.net/
for PSX...
There is a good review at http://psx.ign.com/news/27061.html
There is also a new PS2 Hokuto no Ken game coming out in 2004. I put info and pictures on another page since this one is getting graphically intense; the idea is to reduce loading times. You can read about the game here.
