*Karate Man has become rather well-known for being the first ever rhythm game in the franchise. This has allowed it to make it into the [[Karate Man Kicks!|next]] [[Karate Man Combos!|three]] [[Karate Man Senior|games]] in the series, all with new mechanics. | *Karate Man has become rather well-known for being the first ever rhythm game in the franchise.

* The ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' version is slightly changed from the original, as the light bulbs were replaced by other objects and the "Hit 2!" cue near the end was changed to "Hit 3!". The bomb at the end of the aforementioned cue was replaced with a cooking pot. The flow meter is not present in this game, so Karate Joe can punch rocks without hurting his fist like he did in the GBA version. | * The ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' version is slightly changed from the original, as the light bulbs were replaced by other objects and the "Hit 2!" cue near the end was changed to "Hit 3!".
