About Chuck Norris Superkicks
Chuck Norris Superkicks, is a 1983 video game produced by Xonox where the player takes control of Chuck Norris.

The game was produced for the Commodore 64, Commodore VIC-20, Atari 2600, and Colecovision as part of Xonox's double-ender cartridge line (cartridges with two games and two connectors that were flipped over depending on which one the user wanted to play). The player is a martial arts expert that has to liberate a hostage. The game combines two types of game-play: moving through a map, and fighting against enemies.

A licensed Xonox martial-arts game that lost its star's name, so the same cartridge turns up under three titles.
VSS developed Chuck Norris Superkicks, and Xonox released it on the 2600 in November 1983 as part of its double-ender line: cartridges with two games and two connectors that you flipped over to choose one. When Xonox's license to use Chuck Norris's name ran out, the game was sold again as Kung Fu Superkicks: Pursuit of the Ninja, and in PAL territories as Super Kung-Fu. Telegames also published it.
On a double-ender it shares the cartridge with another Xonox title; Ghost Manor is one of its documented partners.
How it was made
Developed by VSS and released by Xonox in November 1983, with a PAL release in 1984. It was later renamed after the Chuck Norris license expired.
What the press said at the time
| Computer Entertainer Vol. 2 No. 10 | January 1984 | Graphics ★★½ · Play-Action ★★★½ |
“We found the game fascinating to play because of its variety of action. Though the overall graphics are quite plain, the renditions of Norris and the Warriors are quite good.”
Computer Entertainer rated graphics first and play action second, from four symbols (excellent) to one (poor) — stars in most years, diamonds in 1986–87 — comparing each game only with other games for the same system.

How the Atari 2600 version differs
On the 2600 it shared a double-ended cartridge with Artillery Duel. Computer Games was unimpressed by the pairing and judged both games mediocre.

Before you buy
Check which title is on the label. Chuck Norris Superkicks, Kung Fu Superkicks: Pursuit of the Ninja and the PAL Super Kung-Fu are the same game under different names, and the Chuck Norris-branded copies are the original licensed release. Also check whether it is a double-ender and what the second game is. Boxed copies cost many times the loose price, so on a complete copy the box carries most of the value. Low counterfeit risk.
