Beraboh Man (complete Japanese title: Chouzetsu Rinjin Beraboh Man), is a beat 'em up arcade game that was released by Namco in 1988 only in Japan. It runs on Namco System 1 hardware, and was later ported to the US TurboGrafx-16 under the name of Bravoman. This version of the game actually became more popular than the arcade one and was released on the Wii Virtual Console in 2007, described by Namco themselves as a "comical action game".

[edit] Story

An evil scientist named Dr. Bakuda and his army have arrived in Japan with only one thing in mind - to take over the world. An ordinary working-class Japanese man (who is a caricature of Namco's founder, Masaya Nakamura) has been transformed into the superhero "Beraboh Man" by an alien from Planet Alpha, and he is all that stands in their way. He will not stop until Dr. Bakuda and his evil army are defeated and the world is once again safe for humanity.
