    From the Manual:
    
    Ken must battle his way thru 8 scenes to rescue his people
    from the tyranny of the Emperor Heaven.  Using his bear (sic)
    fist, shooting power and Gento Karate, Ken must confront and 
    defeat 8 vicious enemies who will attack him with Smokeballs,
    Fireballs, Clenching claws, White light bombs and the deadly
    Sliding kick.
    
    Vs mode - Before beginning the game you can practice fighting your
    enemies in the first four stages.
    
    Power up items - 
    	Star - 1-4 times
    	Filled star - 5-7 times
    
    Shooing power - When you have knocked down 20 you get shooting power
    
    Additional Ken - With every 100,000 points
    
    Power up items:
     Flag of "Hokuto" regains lost energy
     Silver necklace regains shooting power
     Gold necklace to use Gento Karate, which makes you transparent
    
    Continuation - Press both A and start at same time from stage 1
    to 4
    
    Not in the book:
      Gaylor in stage 2 looks like King Hippo.
      Several of the other guys look like Elvis Presly!
      Getting thru to stage 6 took my 9 year old son 1 day.
      Other stages very hard without continue.
      For some unknown reason you often die with time still left?
    
    Looks like a good game, but definitely not a classic.  We rented,
    but will not buy.
