Review by CBoisseau
"A very easy perfect game based on the movie of the same name."
Karate Kid was first released in 1987. It was first game ever been being played. The object of the game is to defeat Chozen in 4 different stages. It was way too easy. I beat Chozen on the last board. The message at the end of the game reads ''You have successfully guided Daniel-San through all of the challenges and have become a martial arts master.''
Nice game, very, very easy. Not hard, EEEEAAAASSSSYYYY!!!!
I played this game when I first bought it from my Mom a long time ago when I was at my Grandmother's house. I played this game a lot.
In Stage 1, it was a KARATE TOURNAMENT. The object is to defeat the boss in the FIRST, QUARTER-FINAL, SEMI-FINAL and FINAL rounds. Other stages includes DANIEL-SAN IN OKINAWA (my brother knew that it was Oklahoma, not Okinawa), THE TYPHOON STRIKES and THE LAST FIGHT AGAINST CHOZEN.
It is a great tradition to add to your NES collection. Play this easy. It will deserves a #10 rating.
I hope it will deserves the best. I played this game when I was a youngster. It was based on the movie. Here are the stats:
GAMEPLAY: 10/10
MUSIC/SOUND: 10/10
REPLAY: Good value.
OVERALL: This is fun and easy game to play.
Kids will love it too! And don't forget three four bonus stages:
1. CHOPSTICK FLY CATCH
2. SWINGING HAMMER
3. ICE BLOCK BREAK
I remember when my brother and I were doing a reinactment of the NES game ''THE KARATE KID'', because I made the fun of it. So please buy this tremendous game.
Just one more thing:
If you like this game, please watch the movie. The movie would be much fun than the game. If you defeat Chozen, you will go back to start. I hope that I still enjoyed this game. I'm sure you did. so please get your fingers double crossed when you play this spectacular game. I played it so many times. I loved it to hear it from me. I'll check myself for more many NES games like this one. KUNG FU and other Kickboxing games. Besure to check it at a local flea market, yard sales and other fine stores like Dragon's Den in Poughkeepsie, Funcoland and other fine stores. This game is going to be excellent.
If you like KARATE KID when if it's easy, play other games like Tiger-Heli, Sky Shark and other fine games. This game would be an excellent game for all many occasions. Even kids love it too. If you do, keep it. This would be a game to have this collection.
