Fist of the North Star (NES video game)
The U.S. version was shown at the 1988 Summer Consumer Electronic Show under the title "Ken the Great Bear Fist", which is the localized title used by Toei's international sales department. The title was changed to "Fist of the North Star" for its release in order to tie in with Viz's English adaptation of the manga. The cover artwork for the U.S. version depicts Kenshiro sparring with Toki, who doesn't appear in the game and never actually appeared in the "Hokuto no Ken 2" anime series outside flashbacks (as the character was already deceased by that point of the storyline). The NES version has some slight differences from its Famicom counterpart, which cuts the appearances of side characters at the end of certain stages (such as Bat and Rin at the end of the first stage), as well as the kanji that appear at the top of the screen when Kenshiro defeats a boss after striking its weak point at the start of the battle.
Fist of the North Star (1995 film)
Back in the current time, a lone man wanders from settlement to settlement seeking out the Crossmen. He soon finds them after a group attack the homestead that gave him shelter for the night, and we see that this is actually Kenshiro, still alive. Having killed the attackers at the homestead, he continues on towards the city where he meets orphan Bat and his sister. The settlement is frequently raided by the Crossmen, so Kenshiro soon finds himself defending Bat and the other villagers from Shin's henchmen. When Shin himself hears about Kenshiro's fighting style, he continues sending henchmen to capture or kill the mysterious man, only later discovering that it is in fact Kenshiro. As the people begin revolting against the Crossmen, Kenshiro finally meets with Lord Shin in his throne room, resulting in a final showdown between the two.
