Famicom Jump II is one of those weird, charming NES-era mashups where Shonen Jump characters from different manga series team up for a side-scrolling beat 'em up. You pick from seven heroes—Dragon Ball's Goku, Kinnikuman, and a few others I don't recognize—and brawl through levels packed with goons. The sprites are tiny but full of personality, and the controls are simple, though some characters feel way stronger than others (Goku's Kamehameha clears rooms in seconds).
It's got that classic NES jank—enemies spawn right on top of you sometimes, and the platforming can be awkward—but there's something fun about seeing these characters share a screen. The music's catchy too, even if it loops way too quickly. Definitely a niche pick, but if you're into retro anime crossovers, it's a neat time capsule.
