It was on my old 12 in one cartridge but it got stolen :(
In 2player it was a VS game and it one player it was a really cool race platformer.

Also what was that game with the ghost called? It had a bulldog in it and a washing line? Also NES you had to eat things so you could fly.

please help, thanks

Are you talking about Chubby Cherub's original Japanese version? (The ghost was turned into a cherub in the US.)

I'm not sure I'll have too look up some screenshots somewhere these 12 in 1 carts always have different names for the game or it was JPN.

Yes is Musashi no Ken - Tadaima Shugyou Chuu in second mode - versus fencing game for 2 players.

You bumped a nearly 7-year old thread for that?

Especially one that had already been answered. Yeah, um, welcome to DP, Redee?

I recently made an English-translated repro of this game.

If you are interested in trading for it, let me know.

Very nice to have this thread bumped.
I had not previously known of this game.
Kendo games aren't very common.
I've been looking at one for the SG-1000. And coincidentally last night I was reading up on Datam Polystar and got reminded of Kendo Rage on the SNES.

Since we're here, there's a possibly similar game with a strong emphasis on action called Sword Master, available on both NES and Famicom, where you always face the enemy. It's the sequel to the obscure Castlevania-ish game Castle of Dragon.
