    Default Grab Enemies with Your Mustache?

    Guys, maybe it's my playing hundreds of games settling in, but I seem to recall a game, a brawler of some sort, where you didn't fight primarily with your fists, but with your mustache, and you used it to fight enemies by grabbing them and pummeling them into the ground, flipping the enemy from in front of you to back to front again, perhaps jumping into the air while snipping a few times before slamming them into the ground as a finisher. Is my addled mind mixing up the likes of Sonic Unleashed and Klonoa to create something new, or was there a game where your mustache was the means to victory? Perhaps I'm recalling the right fighting moves, but you didn't use a long, black, "living" mustache to fight. It seems like you could swing your enemy overhead, slamming him into the ground as many times as you liked before finishing him off though. Wild 9 perhaps?

    While I couldn't tell you exactly which game it is, you're absolutely looking for one of the games based on the Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo anime/manga series. It's about a guy who fights not with his mustache, but with his living nose hair. It's pretty crazy stuff and got a couple of games on the GBA and GCN.

    ^Above poster is right.

    It's a really wacky series.

    Yeah, Bo-Bo-Bo was the first thing that came to mind when I read the title. It's gotta be one of those games.

    When the older couple come out of his nose to dry laundry on his nose hairs... classic.

    I remember watching the anime dub on Toonami.
    I actually enjoyed it quite a bit; it was obviously rewritten in a lot of places, but it worked very well. (And I admitably found the funniest parts being where the characters would comment on Japanese text on-screen in an English dub.)

    This reminded me of Rocky Rodent where you use your Hair as a weapon?
