ULTRAMAN (SUPER NINTENDO SNES)

In the future, Earth must protect itself from alien invaders, a task handled by the special scientific research team. However, they are not alone in this endeavor. After crashing his ship on Earth while pursuing the evil alien Bemular, the super-being Ultraman is there to help whenever the attacking aliens prove too much for humanity alone to handle. Standing hundreds of feet tall with incredible strength and abilities, he can only stay on Earth for a few minutes and therefore must defeat his enemies before his power runs out completely.

Based on the popular 1967 TV show, Ultraman directly follows the story of its source material. Cast in the role of the titular Ultraman, the player must defeat many of the same monsters that appeared in the original series. Taking on the guise of a 1-on-1 fighting game, Ultraman can punch, kick, and grab his opponent, as well as use a variety of special moves that need to be charged. However, in order to truly defeat his opponent, Ultraman must deplete his continuously recharging life bar and, at that point, strike with his strongest special attack: the Specium Beam. As the game continues, different enemies may even find ways to avoid this most formidable attack, and Ultraman must adapt... Each stage has a time limit of only three minutes, and there has three lives and no continues.
