About Master Karateka


2005-03-21 (updated 2013-11-06)
A Japanese-only port of Karateka to the Game Boy. The graphics are larger and are generally better than the NES version (albeit in black and white). A VS. mode has been added, and you are now given the ability to customize your character's stats (power, life, and speed) at the beginning of the game. The new cut scenes look nice, too. Unfortunately, the hit detection actually seems worse than in previous versions.
