Nekketsu Kakutou Densetsu (Japan) [En by oRdErEDchaos v0.95] (Technos Fighting Legend) Game

Nekketsu Kakutou Densetsu—or Fighting Legend—is a hidden gem from the NES era that throws you into the chaotic, fist-swinging world of Technos Japan’s iconic brawlers. Imagine River City Ransom but dialed up with even more over-the-top martial arts action, where you pick from a roster of street-fighting legends (including Kunio and Riki!) to duke it out in brutal, combo-heavy battles. The game’s got that classic Nekketsu charm—quirky animations, hilarious enemy reactions, and a satisfying crunch to every punch—wrapped in a competitive versus mode that’s perfect for settling grudges with friends.

What makes this one special? It’s a love letter to Technos’ beat-’em-up legacy, blending the tight controls of Double Dragon with the absurd humor of River City. The fan-translated version (shoutout to oRdErEDchaos!) lets non-Japanese players finally experience the madness. If you’ve ever wanted to drop-kick a rival into a crowd or pull off a spinning piledriver on pixelated thugs, this is your nostalgia-packed ticket to mayhem.
