Bokosuka Wars is a strategy game by Kōji Sumii (住井浩司).
Originally developed in 1983 for the Sharp X1, it won ASCII Entertainment's first "Software Contest" in 1984 and was sold boxed by them. An MSX port was released in the same year, followed in 1985 by versions for the S1, PC-6000mkII, PC-8801, PC-9801, FM-7 and the Famicom (the latter released on December 14, 1985).
LOGiN Magazine's November 1984 issue featured a sequel for the X1 entitled "New Bokosuka Wars" with the source code included. With all-new enemy characters and redesigned items and traps, the level of difficulty became more balanced. It was also included in Tape Login Magazine's November 1984 issue, but never sold in any other form.
Today, the PC-8801 version is sold as a download from Enterbrain and was ported for the i-Mode service in 2004. The Famicom version was released for the Wii Virtual console on April 8, 2008.
