Is there a Japan release of Kung-Fu, or is that cart released in another country?
Kung Fu = Spartan X (in Japan)
Yeah, but what are the other cart? A Pirate? A release from another country? Or is Spartan X released in Japan even as Kung-Fu?

Looks like a pirate
I think there were some official Hong Kong ports of some games. They all had funky labels like that. There's a couple of them on |tsr's NES Archive, but the whole atarihq domain seems to be down right now. I'll post a link later if the site comes back up.
either way, Kung Fu pretty much sucks. Its only worth keeping around if on a multicart, the game only version is pretty worthless.
No way! Kung Fu is great! It's all about learning patterns and perfect execution. I played it for about a week straight and I was able to loop through the game like 3 times on one set of lives.

Maybe he's talking about the value of the cart, not the game itself.
Kung-Fu is original Japan not Hongkong port. This cart is very rare and very high value. It made limited ediition.
We've chatted about this before: http://www.famicomworld.com/forum/index.php?topic=418.0
Hope that helps. :) The carts pictured above are legit.
did they ever release Kung Fu 2 in the U.S.? I remember seeing it in magazines back in the day, but never ever saw the game in stores.
