* Done very, very often in the video game ''[[God Hand]]''. One of the main character's Roulette attacks is "Ball Buster", which can only be used on male opponents (and doesn't work on a castrated male early in the game), but does a good amount of damage and stuns them. Villains can also do the crotch shot, however - one boss's ultimate attack is a combo targeted at the hero's groin. The game's mood, one may surmise, is "silly", with a laugh track usually accompanying the blows (though to be fair, how often does a hero pull off a groin shot on a luchadore gorilla?). |

* In the [[MMORPG]] ''[[Kingdom of Loathing]]'', Turtle Tamers can learn this as one of their special attacks, the "Kneebutt" (viz. "Headbutt"). The can-can dancers can kick you in the can, can, can. You're going to be walking funny for a week. |

* One of the distinctive features of the ''[[Fallout]]'' series is the ability to target attacks at specific regions of an opponent, one of these is the groin (which elicits all sorts of silly comments from characters). If this attack is used on a super mutant, it will respond with "Ha ha ha, we do not share that weakness!". |

** Interestingly, at least one super mutant in ''Fallout 2'' is susceptible to groin shots. Snipe Marcus the (friendly) super mutant in the groin from the edge of the map, watch him say "Oof!" and fall face-down, leaving the scene (thereby freezing it), roam around on various errands for several game-days, and return to find Marcus, still face-down in brokencrotched agony. Good times. |
