Incase anyone is wondering about translation differences between this and the japanese version, everything is pretty much really similar. However, when you shoot the bazooka into the cockpitt, in japanese, Super Joe says "Go back to hell!" and then when the timer is running out and you have your final encounter with Groeder (big creepy mech guy) he says "I'll take yo down the path to hell!" or something along those lines.
Idk what's with the fucking american censorship. Master-D, wtf ? Why don't you just call him by his name HITLER and let it be that way. Not to mention the NAZI Logo removing. They think the're gonna change anything with the fucking censorship. Btw, this is one of the best games in the planet. Thank god there's a hack with the Jap version details.
Kinda funny, the date at the end where Super Joe wrote his memoir is actually the exact date of my birthday. By the way, this game is awesome! Shame about the sequel.
man i just saw that and did the same thing...thought back to when we beat it as kids and thinking 2010 was just an unbelieveable time. i mean it was eleven years after we were supposed to party in 1999 lol...and 1999 seemed forever away too...
funny i never got why he looked like Hitler until a month ago. in the Japanese version it WAS Hitler, and the baddies the Nazis. but they changed that for the west version. but kept his face?! the only other famous person with a mustache like that is charlie Chaplin.!! :P
still one of my fav game endings, the moment he runs back into the building and than that explosion.
This game kicks some serious ass!!! The NES had some of the best games of all time. This, Mega Man II... hell even Ducktales was a hell of a side-scroller.
The only other game to realistically simulate hitler-head gore chunks is the xbox remake. it was a technology that wasn't as used as it should have been, like GeoMod from Red Faction.
This scene remains as vivid in my mind now as from early childhood. First time I made it here, I thought ... did I just see what I think I sawr? Exploding Hitler heads in Nintendo games- not quite common in those days. Its embellished goriness producing ooh and ahhs among adolescents.
It's kind of a 'heady' moment when realizing the enemy of mankind in that game... The 'Badds'. The translation wasn't very subtle.
PS. 'Gondamin' is awesome! Awesome tunes in Bionic Commando.
Yup, beat rearmed on the day I got it (Yes from the time it came out, to night >:D) And it is around 10 seconds. The explosion is seen 3 times- Normal speed, Slow motion, then hand drawn goodness.
It really isn't a coincidence. The japanese version ("Hitler no fukkatsu") is all about nazis. This one's either an unintentional "oops" by Capcom, or just so that no one from Nintendo's censors were able to beat the game this far.
The whole ending seems like an homage to Mobile Suit Gundam. In MSG, Char flies past a ship, shoots a bazooka into its cockpit, killing the dictator inside. Then Amuro flies out of an exploding fortress into the arms of his comrades. :P
Me and my friends always used to joke that we would hear the whole story when they made the sequel, but it wasn't coming out until August 2nd, 2010. Turns out it's a little sooner than that.
This game has a decent story, especially considering the small amount of dialogue and the fact that it's an 8-bit action game.
Superb ending to a great game. Back in the old days, playing 8-bit, my favorite games were the ones that had dialogue, cinematics, and character development.
i wonder whatever happened to this 'gondamin' fellow. this video reminded me of the excellent music in this game (don't laugh, i'm a child of the era).
I know capcom's producing it. And if you want to be that literal, a Swedish company named GRIN is doing the actual development. And I doubt it's the same team of developers making it now that made the 1989 game. If you're going to be a condescending prick, at least get your facts straight.
Well Capcom made commando which bionic commando is a spinoff of, and seeing how Kenji Inafune still is at capcom I really doubt the original commando writers are gone.
Everything for the BC-sequels (BC and BC:Rearmed) is created by GRIN in Sweden. They, of course need to get Capcoms approval since they're the employers for this project. These are not speculations, they're facts.
They did. There's this one part where a boss character goes 'What!? An intruder in the factory!' Then Rad goes 'What!? A dwarf straddling a huge metal...thing!'
Thanks lalalei. Back when I said that I didn't even know about Rearmed. I've been looking forward to it for the longest time now. It does go for the more humourous tone. I was referring to the Next Gen one which at the time seemed pretty gritty, but now that the team has shown more, it actually looks interesting as well.
What does the date mean 2010.8.2. Why is the japanesse version different from the american version.
In Japan its called top secret hitler's revival. they took out the swastikas symbols. used baddts instead of nazis. Master D Name Is really Adolf Hilter. The Japaness Version Is harder more enemies and other obsticles.
uhhh well I think it's obvious that Joe is telling you what happened to him in the year 2010 despite already playing the whole game and knowing what happened to him
Just heard about this ending and checked youtube for it. I'm glad you posted it. Surprising for the old NES. I played this at a friends house growing up, but never saw the end. I always loved the game a lot.
Just to clarify the full name of the Japanese version is "Top Secret: Hitler's Revival"
The Badds were really Nazis and Master D is Hitler. All Swastikas were replaced with eagle symbols. Nevertheless, It's still an amazing game, regardless of the censorship.
I wonder how DID the head explode scene get past the censors?
