This is NOT a translation.

Originally released on December 23, 1992 for the Famicom Disk System by Technos Japan.

Although a mostly complete translation patch for the game by oRdErEDchaos has existed since October 18, 1998, the 4 player support in battle mode was never localized.
This controller localization enhancement hack of Nekketsu Fighting Legend was created ONLY to correct this problem.

Title Screen: Before and After
Original Title Screen

Restored Splash Screen

Note: The oRdErEDchaos Riki Kunio patch modifies the red and gold kanji at the top of the screen to give credit to oRdErEDchaos and completely eliminates the entire Technos credit line at the bottom. This patch does not touch the kanji; instead it restores the Technos credit line at the bottom.

Game History

Before declaring bankruptcy in 1996, Technos Japan's largest game series was Kunio-kun. Double Dragon was Technos's second largest series. Outside of Japan, Double Dragon is much more well known because more Double Dragon games were released outside of Japan.

This table shows where Nekketsu Kakutou Densetsu fits into all the Kunio-kun games Technos Japan released on the Famicom. It also shows games in the series made exclusively for other game systems during the time. Kunio-kun games continued to be made for other systems up through 1996.
