The NES booklet's story names no one: the player, who wasn't looking for trouble, is surrounded by gangs of thugs and has only fists and kicks to fight them with.p. 2 (image 4), The Storyp. 2 (image 4), The StoryManual
On the NES the player picks one of three difficulty levels, each of four stages: street punks on a subway platform, outlaw bikers at the wharf, Kung Fu women in an alley, and a maze of hoods. A life is lost when the power meter or the time clock runs out. Select chooses a one- or two-player game.p. 3 (image 5), How to Playp. 3 (image 5)p. 3 (image 5)p. 5 (image 7), How to OperateManual
On the NES, A and B punch or kick behind depending on which way the Renegade faces, and both together jump-kick. Pressing the pad twice one way runs, with running punches and kicks. He can sit on a downed enemy and punch him, throw an enemy he holds by the collar over his shoulder, and knee a crouching one.p. 4 (image 6), How to Operatep. 4 (image 6)p. 5 (image 7)p. 6 (image 8)p. 6 (image 8)p. 6 (image 8)p. 6 (image 8)Manual
The NES booklet lists four pickups: a hamburger, found by kicking walls, restores the Renegade's power to 100%; a heart brings a second Renegade; a "P" lets him knock enemies down with one punch; and an "S", in the motorcycle scene only, gives turbo power to crash enemy motorcycles. It also prints button codes on the second controller that start a game at stage 2 or 3.p. 8 (image 10), Special Powersp. 8 (image 10)p. 9 (image 11)p. 9 (image 11)p. 7 (image 9)p. 8 (image 10)p. 9 (image 11)p. 9 (image 11)p. 7 (image 9)Manual
