''[[Battle Clash]]'', known in Japan as ''Space Bazooka'', is a [[Humongous Mecha|Mecha-themed]] [[Light Gun Game]] released for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] in 1992 which supported the Super Scope, a [[Light Gun]] peripheral for the SNES. It was developed by Intelligent Systems of ''[[Fire Emblem]]'' and ''[[Nintendo Wars|Advance Wars]]'' fame. The player assumes the role of the gunner of a mecha ([[A Mech by Any Other Name|"Standing Tank", the game's preferred terminology]]) known as the "Falcon", as he helps the pilot Michael Anderson defeat the other Standing Tanks around the world in a tournament called the "Battle Game". Eventually, the player and Mike's journey take to the Moon, where they face the tournament's champion, the alien Anubis, [[You Killed My Father|the murderer of Mike's father]].
The sequel ''[[Revenge of the Sequel|Metal Combat: Falcon's Revenge]]'', released in 1993, took a [[Sequel Escalation]] approach to the original game's premise. The "Battle Game" tournament in the previous game is revealed to be a front for an incoming alien invasion, which now took Mike and the player to other planets around the solar system to defeat the invaders. The sequel further refined the gameplay by adding a training stage to the beginning and a second playable Standing Tank in the form of the "Tornado", piloted by a mysterious young girl named Carol Eugene.

* [[Achilles' Heel]]: Certain Standing Tanks have weak points that, when hit by a charged shot, will deal lots of damage (or, in ''Metal Combat'', destroy them completely). They don't [[Attack Its Weak Point|glow]] unless you hit them with a high-powered charge shot. In some cases (such as with Standing Tank Arachnus), you want to ''avoid'' hitting the enemy's weak spot, as it [[Turns Red|only makes them more powerful]].
* [[Amazing Technicolor Battlefield]]: Any battle against any of Anubis' incarnations.
