The Karate Kid

The Karate Kid is a 1987 licensed action game developed by Atlus and published by LJN for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) exclusively in North America despite being developed by a Japanese developer. It is based on The Karate Kid Part II (1986) and follows the player, as the karate student Danial LaRusso, progressing through four levels loosely based on events from the film. The gameplay is split between traversing through side-scrolling areas and fighting opponents one on one; the latter of which can be played separately with a second player.
