I'm Sorry, known in Japan as Gonbee no I'm Sorry, is an arcade game released by Coreland/Sega in 1985. This strange, action game plays very much like a Pac-Man clone, and stars a caricature of former Prime Minister of Japan, Kakuei Tanaka. The title is actually a play on the Japanese word for Prime Minister, Sori. Oddly enough this game, with so much Japanese satire, made it into some of the United States arcades.

Basic Gameplay

The goal is for the greedy protagonist to collect all the gold bars while jumping over or defeating various enemies and obsticles in each maze-like level. Some of these enemies are: Japanese secret service agents and parodies of Japanese wrestler named Giant Baba, a moonwalking Micheal Jackson, Madonna, and what looks like ex-NFL star/alleged murderer O.J. Simpson. When you collect all the gold in a given level, you must cash it into a building to beat the level.
