For example, 'Balbarotch' became 'Conehead' or vice versa - after all, due to the game's history it is not entirely clear which name came first. Throughout the entire game, many characters were renamed. Also, the soundtrack is top notch, especially on the SNES!Īnother short note on the game: Since November 2013, there is a download version of the game that is based on the Arcade Version!

The Arcade Version offered a 3-player-mode (as was common for many other arcade machines).

If you only knew it from the SNES, you will probably not even thought that it was censored. The porting by the way was done very well. In this regard it is even more notable that you can still light your enemies on fire with torches, or that one of the bosses can be thrown into a scrap press. The changes concern blood, names, skeletons, revealing clothes, smoke/fume, and characters as well as graffiti in the background. Still, the censorship is very similar to the typical Nintendo of America alterations. This porting was done solely for the Japanese market and thus not by Nintendo of America. What we can tell, however, is that the characters were renamed.Īt this point we want to clarify something: the Arcade came out in 1992, the Super Famicom version in 1995.

Whether or not the background story was altered, we cannot tell since no one in our team can read Japanese letters. The system dependent alterations of the graphics will - as usual - not be considered, we think that it is pretty much clear to everyone that Arcade Versions look better thanks to bigger sprites. A comparison to the US Arcade Version shows that a few things were cnesored when the game was ported to the Japanese Super Famicom home console. Thank you for all of your support throughout the years - CoolROM will continue strong.The porting of the Beat 'em Up game 'Undercover Cops' unfortunately was never released for home consoles outside of Japan. We feel we have reached this goal and helped cure more cases of nostalgia than we could have ever imagined. From the very beginning, our goal was to allow users to re-live classic moments from video games that they have lost and cannot purchase anymore. We are very grateful to have served the emulation community for so many years and to have CoolROM still exist today. This page has been removed due to a request from Nintendo of America Inc.
