''Black Belt'' was originally a ''[[Hokuto no Ken]]'' game in Japan. The changes were the characters themselves and the backgrounds, as well as everything related to the property. However, the game mechanics are still the same and even the lesser enemies die by exploding into bits. A sequel was released for the Sega Mega Drive in Japan, which was released internationally as ''Last Battle'', once again stripped of the ''Hokuto no Ken'' license.
