Hong Kong 97 - Master System and Game Gear

What the hell can I say? It's freaking Hong Kong 97 on the Master System! About the game Hong Kong 97 ('97冯港) is an infamous unlicensed action game released for the Super Famicom in 1995 by HappySoft. It has become a cult legend — one of the most famous “so bad it's good” games ever made. The premise: the year is 1997 and Hong Kong is being overrun. The government sends Chin, a relative of Bruce Lee, to fight back — a one-man army against an endless wave of enemies, culminating in a reanimated, weaponized boss. Crude digitized photos, a single looping clip of music, a shock-value game-over screen, and a difficulty that never lets up: it is gloriously, unapologetically itself. This port preserves all of it, quirks and bugs included. About the port This was basically based on the Sega Genesis version, and we could almost keep everything - we had to sacrifice the music, but I kinda liked the mid we implemented.
