Certainly not now. There's tons of people who jump on that kinda thing _now_ . But back in the 90's if you were a kid you probably looked like that at some point. Maybe had different patterns on your T-shirt , or different color of shorts, but it's pretty normal clothing for a kid back then. And fundamentally, there's nothing wrong with putting kids on the cover who resemble the kids you want to buy the game...... Though, I will admit.... perhaps there is something about the sunglasses that makes the kids seem a bit unappealing? Maybe something about the facial expressions? A little bit of smugness comes through there, I admit. They give off a bit of a "punchable face" vibe, sure.... they actually kinda remind me of _Rascal_ on the PS1, though by the time they tried to get away with it, kids just didn't look like this. But I think Buster Bros hit at the right time. And compared to _Kid Chameleon_ ? Now, that's crossing the line - NO KID had a leather jacket, or sported slicked back hair. Who are you trying to fool, Sega? THAT's outrageous; totally immersion breaking :P

My favorite part about Rival Turf was the fact that you could rename most of the enemies in the game. However, you had to complete the entire game first before it allowed this. But I think there was a code to either do it right away, or just get to the end fast so you could start a new game much quicker. I did this over and over. I was so easily amused back then.

My brothers and I had great fun with Rival Turf. I can't even remember how we got it. It certainly isn't something we would have looked for or been excited about. Every once in a while, we still do a playthrough when we get together. Holding down the L button the whole time makes your character run around like a maniac! It's a riot!

Also, Rival Turf is so unintentionally funny, the bosses have some bizarre animations as funny dump names for each, one of them is a rapper who can get killed by his own goons, a car passes by dropping more enemies and if you make the boss stand in the middle of the road he can get run over by that car.

The Goalie on the cover of the soccer game is german goal keeper Oliver Kahn. And fun fact about Super Fire Wrestling, all those wrestlers were featured without the permission of the wrestlers. And according to then they didnt care, they just thought it was cool that they could play themselves on a video game.

Box art is the only reason I ended up getting games like Cybernator, Super Metroid, and Super Aleste back in the day. When you think about how much the picture on the cover influenced sales it's kinda wild how many titles chose to half-ass it.

X Kaliber cover: A city skyline, at night, with a large cool sword front and center. X Kaliber Gameplay: Walking around a futuristic city, at night, killing stuff with a cool sword. Yeah bud, wow, how could that ever make sense to anybody, wow. And Phalanx, I looked at that cover where it said it was a space shooter, in English, and wondered: "Now what the heck kinda game could this be? I bet it's a platformer!" but it was ACTUALLY a space shooter! Who woulda guessed, nobody can read after all

These guys are straight out of central casting for Salute Your Shorts." And here they are promoting a beat 'em up game.

I just did a video on some Super Famicom wrestling games over on my channel, and while Super Fire Pro Wrestling isn't a bad game, I would say it's one of those cases where there are so many sequels (there are at least NINE Fire Pro games on the Super Famicom) and most of them improve in some way or another. I'd recommend Super Fire Pro X Premium (the last release, but also the most sought-after) or Queen's Special over the original Super Fire Pro. Also, love that Phalanx box art.

7:40 Ah, yes, the Rushing Beat series of beat them ups in Japan. They are a trilogy, you have Rushing Beat, then Rushing Beat Ran - Fukusei Toshi, and finally the third and final game Rushing Beat Shura. The interesting thing is that all three games were published in the USA, but all of them under a different title and none of them with any hint that they were sequels to each other. Rushing Beat was localized as Rival Turf!, Rushing Beat Ran was localized as Brawl Brothers, and finally Rushing Beat Shura was localized as The Peace Keepers. If you played any of those titles in the west you would know that the only things they have in common is that they are beat em ups.
