Iron Tank is a game featuring one of the most pissed-off programmers in the history of the NES.
KNT's Rant#
Present at 0x1B518 in both the US and Japanese ROM is a rather colorful rant by Yukio Kaneda, who also programmed Guerrilla War. (Note that line breaks were added for readability; the original contains none.)
