Also known as: Spartan X (JP) This game has regional differences. |
The game famously known for birthing the beat-'em-up genre and way less known for apparently being supposed to be based on the Jackie Chan-starring film Wheels on Meals (called Spartan X in Japan) despite the only explicit connection being the protagonists' names.
