The NES ''Bionic Commando'' also featured a much more fleshed out plot than its arcade predecessor. Rad Spencer (also known as [[SpellMyNameWithAnS Ladd Spencer]] in the original translation, later renamed Nathan "Rad" Spencer), a bionic arm-equipped OneManArmy working for TheFederation, is sent to infiltrate [[TheEmpire Imperial]] territory in order to rescue his missing comrade Super Joe (fortifying the title's otherwise tenuous ties with the original ''Commando'') and find out what he knows about the stolen top secret [[ThoseWackyNazis Nazi]] project codenamed Albatross. After rescuing Joe, Spencer discovers that Project Albatross is an abandoned weapon that the Imperials now seek to complete by reviving the project's originator - [[UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler Hitler]] himself (hence the game's Japanese title, meaning ''Resurrection of Hitler'').

''Bionic Commando'' is a platformer series by Creator/{{Capcom}}. The original title was an arcade game released in 1987, starring a soldier who must fight his way into enemy territory to destroy their missiles. At first sight, ''Bionic Commando'' seemed like a conventional platformer, but there's a catch: [[GenreBusting there is no jump button]]. Instead, the protagonist is equipped with a [[GrapplingHookPistol grappling hook]] to swing and climb places. The game was marketed outside Japan as a sequel to Capcom's earlier arcade game ''VideoGame/{{Commando}}'' (hence the [[TranslationMatchmaking similar titles]]), to the point that the English promotional flyer claimed that the game's protagonist is none other than Super Joe himself, although the two games were not connected... At first. It was ported to a variety of home computer platforms following its release.
