Chinese Hero is an arcade action game developed by Nihon Game (now Culture Brain) and published by Taiyo System in October 1984. Chinese Hero is the first game in the Super Chinese series by Culture Brain. It was ported to the Nintendo Entertainment System as Kung Fu Heroes in Japan by the company Nihon Game in 1986 and was released in North America in 1989. Kung-Fu Heroes features an overhead view and up to two players may play simultaneously. It is a direct port of the earlier arcade game Chinese Hero developed by Nihon Game at the time the company was involved in the coin-up industry. Kung-Fu Heroes is an NES port of Chinese Hero, and unlike other titles in the series, it does not incorporate any role-playing video game elements in the gameplay.
