Play Tetsuwan Atom (Japan) on snes Online

Game Overview

Tetsuwan Atom on SNES is one of those Japan-only gems that makes you wish you'd paid more attention in Japanese class. It's Astro Boy's second video game outing, and it plays like a classic side-scrolling brawler—except you're a rocket-powered robot kid punching through waves of mechanical baddies. The sprites are chunky and colorful, with that early '90s anime charm, and the controls are simple but satisfying once you get the hang of timing his flying punches.

First few minutes? You’re immediately thrown into a city under attack, smashing robots with Astro’s arm cannon or just going full fisticuffs. The music’s got that SNES synth-rock vibe, and some stages even throw in little platforming bits between fights. Not gonna lie, the language barrier’s there if you don’t know Japanese, but the action’s straightforward enough that you can muscle through. It’s a solid, if slightly obscure, piece of Astro Boy history.
