The Scoop
Wow. That dude looks intense. This ad boasts "Sound effect so real you can feel the punches" and "Graphics so real their looks could kill." I'll let you judge for yourself. To me it looks like a Double Dragon rip-off. It was however, popular enough for a group of individuals to create a Windows-based remake entitled Target; 2006. Also interesting is the box cover art.

It's a total ripoff of the cover to Joe Lewis's book "World's Greatest Fighter Teaches You How To Master Bruce Lee's Fighting System". I wonder if Lewis ever received any money for that?
