The second of the mainline Bishi Bashi games. Bash bash bash! Watch a soda can go to space!

Version Differences#

This needs some investigation.
Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page.
Specifically: Is there anything noticeably different between both Korean versions?

Four releases of the game are known to exist, with three of them being preserved:

  • 3 Player Version - The original release of the game.
    • ver.JAA - The Japanese version, which is currently unpreserved.
    • ver.KAA - A Korean localization. Known as sbishika in MAME.
    • ver.KAB - A revision of the Korean localization. Known as sbishik in MAME.
  • 2 Player Version - A later version, released roughly a year after the original. As it states, it only has support for two players instead of three.
    • ver.JAA - The Japanese version. Known as sbishi in MAME.

Attract#

In the Japanese version, a warning screen and the Konami logo are displayed before the intro sequence. None of these two screens appear in the Korean releases.
