A Yu Yu Hakusho fighter, late Famicom release. Two-player bouts with signature techniques, but animations limited by the hardware. Pleasant for fans, technically outclassed.

Collector interest

Namco Datach cartridge adapting the manga Yu Yu Hakusho, built for the Famicom's Datach Joint ROM System barcode reader. The fighting game assumes scannable cards to summon the characters of the dark martial-arts tournament, a mechanic unusable without the accessory or the cards. Desirability rests on the meeting of a very popular anime license and a rare subsystem, where a complete Datach set with intact cards stays hard to assemble.
