Play Shin Nekketsu Kouha - Kunio-tachi no Banka (Japan) Online

Shin Nekketsu Kouha: Kunio-tachi no Banka came out on the Super Nintendo in 1994, developed by Technos Japan. It was part of that wave of mid-90s beat 'em ups that really pushed what the SNES could do with sprite work and animation. The game continues the story from the Nekketsu Kouha series, but shifts the perspective to follow Kunio and his friends through a more structured, quest-driven adventure.

You control Kunio, Riki, or one of several other characters, moving through urban environments and fighting groups of enemies with punches, kicks, and grapples. The main goal is to advance through the city, clearing areas of rival gangs and uncovering a larger plot. Signature mechanics include picking up and using environmental objects like bats and bikes as weapons, as well as executing special moves that drain a meter. The pacing is brisk, with frequent combat and some light exploration between story beats. It feels like a natural evolution of the series, blending street brawling with light RPG elements that give weight to your progress.
