Germen dictator Adolf Hilter makes a cameo appearence in a NES game!!??
It's more than a great game! It's a history leason!
Adolf Hilter is easily one of history's most hated men, but I had no clue who guy was intill I played a game called Bionic Commando for the Nintendo Entertainment System! Spoiler Alert!! I was around 14 at the time and I was showing a friend how to beat Capcom's Bionic Commando, I was on level 12 (the final level) and I successfully passed all the dangers to meet with the head general who was just suddenly zapped and killed off by a man in suspended animation, naturally the man now wakes up to confront me. My friend then said: "It's Adolf Hilter!" and I said: "who?" I later then learned who this Hilter guy was in High school and sure enough the man in Bionic Commando (named Mr. D in the game) looked just like the German dictator.
The leader of the sinister Nazis empire that feuled World War II and killed over 10million people in mass genocides was in a kid's video game......... hard to believe but true. In Japan, the game even had Hilter on the cover art and the enemies were called the Nazis. Althought Nintendo of America didn't approve Capcom to use the Nazis references the US version of Bionic Commando only the names and minor graphic detail were removed. Plus "you gonna see the ending to this game!, you get to kill Hilter himself! Yes!" The game Bionic Commando itself is amazing. The hero, Rad Spencer, has a cool bionic claw to reach high places or to swing to different areas, the whole World War II look of the game was just a added bonus. Bionic Commando is quickly more popular and is getting even harder to find in the NES discount bins, so don't miss it.
