Hong Kong 97

The game is set around the transfer of sovereignty over Hong Kong in 1997. It is said that, at the time, people from the Chinese Mainland (referred to as "fuckin' ugly reds", making this one of the very few games on the Super Famicom that contains cursing) started immigrating to Hong Kong and greatly increased the crime rate. As a countermeasure, Chin (Jackie Chan in his Wheels on Meals appearance), an unspecified relative of Bruce Lee, was hired by the Hong Kong government (represented by Chris Patten) to wipe out all 1.2 billion people in China. But meanwhile, in China, research was underway to bring the dead "Tong Shau Ping" (Deng Xiaoping) back to life as the "ultimate weapon".

The player controls Chin, who tries to shoot and evade the Chinese populace and police officers moving about and spitting randomly on the screen. When shot, the enemies explode in a mushroom cloud (notably poorly cropped, to the point the explosion is nearly rectangular), leaving behind a flashing corpse and items for instant death or temporary invincibility. After a while, cars appear from the sides, and after three cars have been destroyed by the player, the final boss appears. The final boss is actually Deng Xiaoping's head from the title screen, and once he is defeated, the game repeats itself. All these happen with a stagnant photo as the background; it is random and might be pictures of Maoist propaganda, Guilin, the logo for Asia Television, the logo for Chinese Coca-Cola or even Mao Zedong in monochrome.
