It is not related to the Super Famicom game of the same name, aside from being based on the same source material.

Story

Cyborg 009, Cutscene.png

Cyborg 009

Nine people from around the world are kidnapped by the evil Black Ghost organization, led by the tyrant Skull, to be turned into cyborgs with superhuman abilities. Black Ghost wants to instigate a Third World War and sell its cyborgs as the ultimate weapons. The nine cyborgs manage to escape and band together to stop Black Ghost.

Joe Shimamura (島村ジョー), or Cyborg 009, had his body involuntarily augmented with cybernetic implants that give him supernatural strength and the ability to move at Mach 5 speeds.

Gameplay

The game is an action platformer with animated cutscenes telling the story in between stages. Cyborg 009 moves with Left and Right and crouches with Down. He jumps with B, which can be held to jump higher. He jumps down from platforms with Down+B. He fires his laser gun with A, which can be held for continuous fire. His attack power can be upgraded three times by collecting power-ups.

Cyborg 009 activates his "Accelerator" with C, which makes him move at super speed. He can pass through enemies and projectiles while using his Accelerator. The screen does not scroll if Cyborg 009 hits the edge of it while moving at super speed. Cyborg 009 can use his Accelerator while jumping, which lets him jump higher than ordinarily possible. He has a high degree of maneuverability with the D-Pad while jumping with the Accelerator.

Cyborg 009 loses hit points from his health meter when he takes damage from foes. He loses a life when he loses all of his health and restarts the stage from the beginning (or from the beginning of the boss fight) without any attack upgrades. The game ends if he loses his last life but can be continued.
