Mach Breakers: Numan Athletics 2 (マッハブレイカーズ: ニューマンアスレチックス 2, Mahha Bureikāzu: Nyūman Asurechikkusu Tsu) is a sports arcade game that was released by Namco in 1994 only in Japan; it runs on Namco NB-2 hardware and is the sequel to Numan Athletics, which was released in the previous year. The players must take control of up to seven new (and selectable) Numans - Masala T. (Tikka) Masala (India, born in 1800), Johnny Sanders (United States, born on 7 August 1969), Makoto Kotobuki (Japan, born on 10 October 1975), Sophia Rayleigh (United Kingdom, born on 14 July 1970), Long Rui Huan (Communist China, born on 1 January 1953), Michael Fletcher (Jamaica, born on 25 September 1966), and, Karl Weisemann (Germany, born on 9 May 1957).[1] All seven of these new Numans have different speed and power levels, and if less than four players are present, the CPU will randomly select up to three of the other Numans to compete against them (but they will be differently-coloured); the competition takes place over five days, and on the second, third and fourth ones, there are three (four on the third day) different events that must be qualified for. If any player fails to qualify for an event on these days, they will have to try it again by inserting another coin and continuing - and each of the Numans has their own unique ending sequence (much like the four lords from Exvania), which means a player will have to finish the game with all seven of them to see them all. The starter lights on the "Hyper Glider" event also look like Pac-Man, and a picture of him also appears on the side of a passing airship (along with: Prince Gilgamesh and Princess Ki from The Tower of Druaga, Momo Chan out of Wonder Momo, Valkyrie out of Valkyrie no Densetsu, Hiromi Tengenji from Burning Force and Pitt and Patti from Tinkle Pit) - while Miyuki Chan (from Ordyne) can get seen running a "Prince Paco" (from Marvel Land) taco stand, and the Dig Dug characters can be seen in the "Ground Spike" event as the crack a Numan makes in the ground goes deeper.
