Kung Fu made exciting through the magic of better games

It must have taken a lot of work to make the NES Kung Fu game look cool, but Mission Accomplished. Mission so accomplished. Thomas from Kung Fu takes on pretty much every other NES character (and Zangief) with the help of his massive arsenal of special moves stolen from other games. We hate to spoil it, but Thomas doesn't make it all the way through the video. It is Kung Fu after all, and a violent death is inevitable.

The second half of the video follows Mega Man as he faces the same kind of pan-gaming gauntlet, but with much more loss of (his own) life. Get equipped with E. Honda-Launching Pipe and check out the video after the break!

An odd question: but was there an NES game with Frieza in it?

Like the video being in Japanese didn't give it away. There were DBZ games on the Famicom.
