Bonk/Trivia

Creator Killer: The cancellation of Brink of Extinction brought it's developer, Pi Studios, down with it.
No Export for You: Chō Genjin 2 (aka Super Bonk 2) never left Japan. Considering it's the Oddball in the Series, this might have been a good thing.
- Likewise, other then the Amiga port and Super B.C. Kid (Super Bonk), Europe didn't get any of the sequels to B.C Kid due to the Turbo Grafx being sold in VERY limited qualities. All the games in the series finally saw a release on the Wii's Virtual Console service (under the US names however).
Prop Recycling: Bonk 3 and Super Bonk reuse multiple enemy sprites from the previous games.
What Could Have Been: Bonk was set to receive several additional games that all turned into Vaporware at some point.
- There were plans for a role-playing game for the PC Engine (titled RPG Genjin, of course). It never got really far.
- Bonk was going to make his debut in 3D in Ultra Genjin for the then new Nintendo Ultra 64. Due to the obscurity of the series, in addition to being one of Hudson's first 3D titles, the game ultimately became Bomberman Hero.
- A new Bonk game, titled Brink of Extinction, was being made as a downloadable title for the Wii, Play Station 3 and Xbox 360. Bonk would have had new powerups that let him shoot fire and ice. Due to the tsunami that hit Japan in 2011, in addition to Konami fully acquiring Hudson, it was cancelled.
