Hong Kong 97 is a Japanese video game that was released for the Super Famicom console in 1995. The game has gained notoriety for its infamous "Game Over" screen, which features a graphic image of a dead body with its head blown off and a message that reads "You have died of dysentery."
The image is said to have been taken from a real-life photo of a man who committed suicide, and the inclusion of such a graphic image in a video game was considered highly controversial. The game's creator, Kowloon Kurosawa, has stated that the screen was meant to be a commentary on the state of Hong Kong at the time, where there was rampant corruption and organized crime.
The game itself is a side-scrolling shooter in which the player controls a character named Chin, who is tasked with eliminating the entire population of China in order to prevent the takeover of Hong Kong by the Chinese government. The game was widely criticized for its racist and insensitive content, and was banned in both Japan and China.
