-------------------------------- INTRODUCTION ---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Wit's is an action game released by Athena for the Famicom game system in 1990.
|
|
It was never officially translated into English but was translated by Suicidal
|
|
Translations and released on February 28th, 2003.
|
|
|
|
This file serves as an instruction manual for the translated game. It is not a
|
|
translation of the original instruction manual but is an original work based on
|
|
my experiences playing the game.

---------------------------------- THE STORY ----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Joe was hit by a car and transformed into the superhero Naked Man. Dr. Wit's
|
|
attempted to recruit Naked Man into his evil Joke Army, but Joe refused. Now he
|
|
must do battle the evil Joke Army in a battle of speed and skill to prevent them
|
|
from taking over the world.
|
|
|
|
---------------------------------- GAMEPLAY -----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
As with most NES action games, gameplay isn't particularly difficult. The
|
|
initial options should be obvious. You can choose between 1, 2, 3 and 4 player
|
|
games. After that, it's just run and gun, baby, run and gun.
|
|
|
|
General play control is as such:
|
|
|
|
Left/Right: move left/right
|
|
Up/Down: move up/down
|
|
B: jump
|
|
A: speed up
|
|
Start: tea & crumpets
|
|
|
|
|
|
LEVELS
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
You must do battle with the five members of Dr. Wit's Joke Army in order to
|
|
save the world. You can choose to fight them in any order, but they are
|
|
increasingly difficult from left to right. For the purposes of this manual, I
|
|
will refer to them as levels one through five, with one being on the left and
|
|
five being on the right. There are five rounds in each battle. The first three
|
|
are on foot (or wing, or belly, or ice skates, accordingly) and the fourth and
|
|
fifth levels are on Segways.
|
|
|
|
Level One - Suicide Smurf: Sure, he looks like a man in a blue spandex suit in
|
|
the portrait, but once you get into the game, you realize he's just a kamikaze
|
|
smurf with Nikes. Nothing special about this level, just surround him and ram
|
|
him.
|
|
|
|
Level Two - Herman Birdman: In level two, you take to the skies. The only
|
|
difference between this level and the last is that Herman can jump multiple
|
|
times. I don't know why you don't just fly under the wall when it approaches,
|
|
but I guess maybe Dr. Wit sabotaged your wings or something.
|
|
|
|
Level Three - Jonny Madrox: Level three brings you the
|
|
cheating motherbitch twin brother of Multiple Man. You don't just have to ram
|
|
him into the wall, you have to ram all four of him into walls!
|
|
|
|
Level Four - Waterboy: Next up is Aquaman's heterosexual life partner Waterboy.
|
|
In this level, you swim instead of run or fly. Basically, this means that the
|
|
game makes different noises when you're moving. There are also walls on the
|
|
field before you start, which makes it slightly more difficult than the previous
|
|
levels. Oh, and you get boats instead of motorcyles in this one.
|
|
|
|
Level Five - Tony Harding: Time for the obligatory slippery ice stage. Just like
|
|
the stage before it except you have to start turning a couple of blocks earlier
|
|
than normal because you'll slip, slide and crash. I like crashing in rounds four
|
|
and five because you get to see the dogs from the dogsleds run away.
|
|
|
|
Level Six - Dr. Wit: And now it's time for the final battle. But wait, Dr. Wit
|
|
isn't a real doctor, he's actually Sully from Monsters Inc.! He's pissed off
|
|
that you dented the bumper of his car when he ran over you in the intro and is
|
|
out for revenge! He has the cloning ability of Johnny Madrox, the slippery level
|
|
of Tony Harding and the gay breast stroke of Waterboy. How can you ever hope to
|
|
defeat such a menace? Pretty much the same way you beat all the rest of them.
