Last Battle - Hokuto No Ken Fist of The North Sega Genesis Megadrive Cover Arts Regional Differences
19First released in Japan (and Korea) in 1989 under the name Hokuto no Ken: Shin Seikimatsu Kyuuseishu Densetsu (北斗の拳 新世紀末救世主伝説 "Fist of the North Star: Legend of the New Century Savior"), Last Battle was the name for the rest of the world (released a couple month later on the Genesis, and in 1990 in Europe after blood was removed due to censorship) for this side scrolling beat-'em-up that was a launch title for the Sega Megadrive and Genesis. Hokuto no Ken was initially a Japanese manga series.
It was also released for the Sega Mega drive / Genesis arcade system Sega Mega Play that can hold 4 games.
Curiously in Korea it was released under Hokuta No Ken like in Japan and then under Last Battle. I would assume that the first release would be similar to the Japanese release with blood and no censorship and then a re-edition as Last Battle with the altered graphics. However, i can't be certain and the 4 screenshot images in the back of the cover arts are exactly the same and we can't tell the exact version of the game...
