7 | !!This game contains examples of: |
8 | |
9 | * CanonDiscontinuity: All material trying to depict Top as Super Joe has been ignored as of 2009 which is further cemented in a 30th anniversary encyclopedia labeling it a change done in the English market. |
10 | * DependingOnTheArtist: Top is depicted with either brown hair or blue hair depending on the artwork. |
11 | * DubNameChange: Top was called Super Joe in American material for the game in an attempt to connect this unrelated game to ''VideoGame/CommandoCapcom''. |
12 | * ExplodingBarrels: The first known example in video games. Blue barrels, when run over, turn red. Red ones explode. |
13 | * TheHero: The main guy is Top and he is determined to save his family and friends from being killed within 24 hours. |
14 | * MarketBasedTitle: The game is titled Rush and Crash in Japan. |
15 | * NintendoHard: You drive a not very sturdy car through a confusing course with hordes of enemies constantly assailing you and instant death traps scattered everywhere. Every bit as fun as it sounds. |
16 | * NoNameGiven: Aside from Top, no character in the game is ever named. |
17 | * OneHitPointWonder: If Top does not have a car to drive, he will die if he gets shot or run over. |
18 | * SpikesOfVillainy: The Zappers have spikes mounted onto a handful of their vehicles they use for their terrorist activities. |
