Burning Fists was an in-house project for Sega of Japan that originally started under the name Force Striker. The picture to the right is that of the original beta copy of the game. Both the Force Striker alpha and the Burning Fists beta were auctioned on eBay by an individual who obtained them from a former Sega of Japan employee. These are the only known official copies of the game in existence, as it was never released.

I'd like to know how this is legal.

Maybe they bought the rights from SEGA?

What SEGA dev team made this, a bunch of interns?

Perhaps any existing copyright only covers distribution in Japan, or maybe the copyright lapsed?

What is with the guy dragon punching up the chick's ass? And why a green and blue guy? This hurts to look at.

WTF?

A horse, in a city, with a grey tail, ridden by a guy in flip flops and a kung fu uniforms, with a rope up his ass, connected to a kite with Captain Falcon on it. Right.

I only bring the issue up because their last game was a complete rip-off of Chu-Chu Rocket.

Seems like a shady company.

I'm still waiting for EA's "The Simpsons: Apu Apu Rocket"

Nigga stole my horse.

I'll buy it for sure

Sounds like a good reason to get the game to me.
