Urban Champion for Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)

Step into a street brawl with Urban Champion for the Nintendo Entertainment System, one of Nintendo's earliest fighting games. In this one-on-one brawler, your goal isn't to deplete a health bar, but to outmaneuver your opponent and punch them off the sidewalk into an open manhole or the path of a passing police car. Choose between weak and strong punches, block high or low, and strategically shift your stance to land blows. Beware of distractions from passing cars or falling flower pots from windows above. While simple in its mechanics, Urban Champion offers a challenging test of timing and positioning, both against the computer and a friend in its two-player mode.
