Line 14:

Another reason might be that [[Germanic Efficiency|German technology has a (not always deserved) reputation for being effective]]. The problem is that this effectiveness is usually gained by intricate engineering that increases costs and inhibits mass production. This doctrine plagued almost every weapon system the Germans utilized throughout the war, even the more conventional ones. As an extreme example, the much-vaunted Type XXI submarine was actually inferior to its Japanese equivalent and the U.S./Britain were easily able to equal its performance by relatively simple modifications to their existing designs. German tanks might have been extremely powerful, but Allied tanks were usually far cheaper to build and easier to maintain, an edge Germany couldn't overcome as the war-ravaged industrial base eroded away.

Nonethless, if you have to pick one WWII power to give antigravity and a [[Iron Sky ~~(Film)~~|moonbase]], the choice is obvious; after all, it's boring if the good guys have all the toys. Not to mention that Einstein (though a pacifist and a Jew, so ''hardly'' on [[Adolf Hitler|Hitler]]'s Christmas card list) was German (and there are a lot of rumours that the reason why America wanted nuclear power fast is because they thought Nazi Germany would develop it first), and [[Nikola Tesla|Tesla]], although actually Serbo-Croatian (a Slav, so a member of ''another'' of Hitler's exterminate-on-sight groups), is [[Did Not Do the Research|frequently confused]] with this due to the country being part of the Austrian Empire when he was born. Needless to say, the theme is played upon endlessly in [[Two-Fisted Tales|pulp callbacks]] and modern occult works.

For example, the [[wikipedia:Thule Society|Thule Society]] was shut down because the [[Ghostapo|Nazis]] did not trust their political loyalty.

* While [[Hellsing|Millenium]] are primarily about using [[Ghostapo|occult means]] to accomplish their goals (most notably the creation of a battalion of vampires) they also use advanced technology such as powerful, missile-shooting [[Zeppelins ~~From~~ Another World|zeppelins]], and microchip implants which can be used to remotely monitor (and incinerate) their soldiers.

** Not a perfect example, though, as ''Hellsing'' is set in the modern era; Millenium is a splinter faction that survived the war (presumably building all this stuff in the intervening time).

*** There are, however, two examples which go back to the War. {{spoiler|The method for creating vampires involved a kind of surgical procedure to transfer vampiric power to normal humans, somewhat combining [[Magitek|occultism and science]].}} And the final reveal that {{spoiler|the Major was mortally wounded in battle in Russia, and was saved by being converted into a cyborg}}.

* ''[[~~Mazinger Z (Anime)|~~Mazinger Z]]'': [[Big Bad]] Dr. Hell started out as a weapons researcher for the Nazis (though he kept his best scientifical breakthroughs and weaponry designs for himself. He claims -predictably- if he would handed them over to the Nazis, Germany would have won the war).

* In the manga version of ''[[Space Adventure Cobra]]'', it is eventually revealed that {{spoiler|Salamander, the leader of the Pirate Guild,}} is actually {{spoiler|Hitler.}}

* In ''[[The Legend of Koizumi]]'', it turns out that all the Nazis- including Menegle and Hitler- survived WWII up to the present day, and are now living on a moon base. They travel from Earth to the Moon in classic [[Flying Saucer|UFOs]], and have a gigantic Meteor Cannon that can hit any point on Earth with the strength of a nuke. The only way to stop them? [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|Mah-Jong]].

Line 39:

* ''[[Blackhawk]]'' in [[The DCU]] fought a lot of bizarre Nazi superscience (with bizarre Allied superscience). The most famous was the [[Monowheel Mayhem|War-Wheel]], a large spiked wheel with a centre like a tank from the First World War.

* ''[[Top Ten]]'s'' Neopolis is an entire ''city'' designed by expat Nazi [[Mad Scientist|Mad Scientists]], complete with flying castles, huge megastructures, and teleporters. In ''The Forty-Niners'', some of them try using a time machine to alter the course of the war.

* [[Ultimate Marvel]] has Nazi ''Aliens'', or rather aliens who helped Nazis with ahead-of-their-time ICBM and atom bomb technology, and then [[Putting On the Reich|appropriated all their uniforms and symbols]] (and names, and bodies).

* ''[[Hellboy]]'': The eponymous character is the result of [[Ghostapo|an occult version of this]] and he spends most of the comic smashing and/or shooting the results of other Nazi super weapon projects.

** A crossover with ''[[The Savage Dragon]]'' revealed that the brain of Brainiape, an evil gorilla with mental powers, was actually Hitler.

Line 49:

* A 90's ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'' comic had a Hitler's brain operated robot travel ''in time'' to save his past self so he could later serve in order to be saved for his brain transplant.

* ''[[Superman At Earths End]]'' is possibly the most literal example of this, not only with a mutant Gestapo armed with futuristic weapons, an army of half-human half-animal monsters, a giant evil Batman clone-monster, but with TWO clones of Hitler himself.

** [[Atop the Fourth Wall|Of course! Don't you know anything about]] [[For Science!|SCIENCE?]]

* An arc in Justice Society Classified involved the disembodied brain of Heinrich Himmler. Who built a giant railgun on THE MOON.

** One storyline in the monthly [[Justice Society of America]] comic is all about a future Nazi Fourth Reich, complete with giant heavily armed war mechs, a means to neutralize all superheroes, and their own supervillains including Captain Nazi.

Line 56:

* In the early ''[[Wolverine]]'' comics, you had Geist, a Nazi cyborg.

* The ''Commando'' comic series was chock full of this. There was little common continuity between the stories in each issue, apart from taking place in wartime. In some of them the Nazis among other things had a nuclear bomb, a moonbase, a time machine, and naturally every time the Allied forces managed to overcome them with absolutely no secret weapons of their own.

* I recall a ''[[~~Two Thousand AD (Comic Book)|~~2000 AD]]'' Future Shock story in which it turned out that ''everyone'' in the Hitler Bunker was a time traveller there doing historical research on the last days of the Nazis...

* I recall a ''[[2000 AD]]'' Future Shock story in which it turned out that ''everyone'' in the Hitler Bunker was a time traveller there doing historical research on the last days of the Nazis...

** And another where they built a time machine as the Allies were just outside Berlin. Hitler and Eva Braun escape using the time machine, but it's not been properly calibrated, so they wind up in Prehistoric times as the first man and woman.

* ''Monster Plus'' runs afoul of Hitlerfist, the monster with Hitlers for hands, in his inaugural issue. Nothing can stand up to the Fists of Fuhrer. Hitlerfist is probably the Sensational Character Find of 2009.

* ''[[Captain America: The First Avenger ~~(Film)~~|Captain America the First Avenger]]'' has Hydra with all sorts of technology way ahead of their time. Although with the exception of the laser guns, all their cool equipment, including the rocket helicopter and cool plane at the end, were actually real life Wunderwaffen designs that were made usable and practical by the power of the cosmic cube.

== Live Action TV ==

* [[Sci Fi Channel]]'s Movie of the Week: ''SS Doomtrooper:'' The Dirty Dozen versus Nuclear Powered Nazi Mutant [[Super Soldier]]. Featuring a one-thread-of-shoestring-budget [[Special Effects Failure]] in the title role.

* In ''[[The Man ~~From~~ ~~UNCLE~~]]'' episode "The Deadly Games Affair", Napoleon is chasing after a high ranking Nazi scientist who was known to have been working on a very secret project near the end of the war. However, when he catches up with the scientist, {{spoiler|Napoleon finds a diabolical lab below the scientist's garage, complete with a [[Human Popsicle|cryogenically frozen]] Hitler, who will be awakened using the spy's rare blood type.}}

* In ''[[The New Avengers]]'' episode "The Eagle's Nest", the Avengers prevent an attempt by an enclave of Nazis concealed in a British monastery to revive Hitler's preserved body.

* ''[[The Tomorrow People]]'' storyline "Hitler's Last Secret" is chock full of evil Nazi super-sciencey goodness.

* In the season three finale of ''[[Star Trek Enterprise]]'', the victorious Enterprise returns home to find that they are in the mid-twentieth century, where aliens have crashed landed and allied with the Nazis. However this turns out to be a subversion as the aliens have only been there for 2 years and were not going to give Hitler any weapons or technology until their time machine was finished. They did have control of the U.S East Coast and a good section of Russia but that was because some different aliens had traveled back in time and killed Lenin resulting in the Soviet Union never forming. The Nazis were already losing land to the Americans and Russians and were hoping the Alien technology would turn the tide back in their favor.

** The Enterprise did fight Stukas with plasma cannons, which would have done very well against contemporary aircraft. However, they weren't much more than an annoyance to the Enterprise.

* ''[[Kamen Rider X]]'' gave us [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3SzmfZ6F24 STARFISH HITLER!]

Line 110:

* In ''[[Angel]]'' certain flashbacks tell that Hitler was planning on creating an army of mind-controlled vampires. This plan failed twice over, since first the submarine transporting the specimens was captured by the Allies, and then the restraints failed, releasing Spike and his Eastern European friends to wreak havoc over the new crew.

* ''[[Tales of the Gold Monkey]]:'' in the episode "Black Pearl" the Germans build an atomic bomb, in 1938.

* In ''[[~~Danger 5 (TV)|~~Danger 5]]'', the eponymous team is tasked with killing a Hitler who has endless bizarre [[Mooks]] from clone dinosaurs to Japanese mechanoid supersoldiers. At one point, Hitler himself duel-wields golden superweapons. It's a rather unusual action comedy series.

* Occurs in [[Misfits]] where an elderly Jewish man with the abilty to time travel goes back to the Nazi Germany and kill Hitler. He botches it and leaves his [[Timeline-Altering MacGuffin|mobile phone behind]]. The information gathered from the phone is enough to jump the Nazi technology up a few degrees.

Line 120:

== New Media ==

* The presence of vast numbers of [[Conspicuous CG|obviously CGI]] pictures of never-realized Nazi wunderwaffen on the internet and History Channel (e.g. ''Luftwaffe 46'') has prompted [[Alternate History Dot Com]] to create an [[Affectionate Parody]] [[Conspiracy Theory]] that [[Sarcasm Mode|"the Nazis would have won the war if they'd spent all their money on tanks and guns instead of inventing CGI before computers existed"]].

** An elaborated version of the conspiracy explained away the computer thing by positing Stupid Jetpack ''[[World War One|Kaiser Wilhelm]]'': the Nazis could invent CGI because the Great War German High Command had already created AIs<ref>That came from the AI of [[Sid ~~Meiers~~ Alpha Centauri]] loving to throw droves of artillery at you in droves, but never actually attacking anything.</ref>

== Tabletop Games ==

* ''[[~~Genius: The Transgression (Tabletop Game)|~~Genius: The Transgression]]'' has the Thulians, Nazi mad scientists who live in the Hollow Earth. Yes, you read that correctly. And so many time travellers have tried to prevent World War Two that the Guardians of Forever have a Hitler Clone Farm, so that whenever he's assassinated they can replace him before any serious damage is done to the spacetime continuum.

== Video Games ==

* The video game grandaddy of this trope is the classic ''[[~~Wolfenstein 3D (Video Game)|~~Wolfenstein 3D]]'', which featured Stupid [[Powered Armor]] Hitler (eventually reduced to simply Stupid [[Gatling Good]] Hitler) as the final boss. Sequels ''[[Return to Castle Wolfenstein]]'' and ''[[Wolfenstein (~~Video~~ ~~Game~~)|Wolfenstein]]'' have good old B.J. Blazckowitz dealing with Nazi superscience along with [[Ghostapo|the occult]] as well as [[Nazis With Gnarly Weapons]].

** One series of ''[[Doom (~~Video Game~~)|Doom]]'' mods based on ''Wolf3D'' is titled "Astrostein" - as the title indicates, it's Wolfenstein [[Recycled in Space|in the far future]] thanks to a portal the Nazis discovered. The third and final part ends with you infiltrating a bunker under the Bavarian Alps, where you finally find (and kill) Hitler, who at this point is nothing but a head attached to some sort of box that's kept him alive for centuries.

* Dino D-Day is kind of an odd example. Rather than create supertechnology for combat, the created super-advanced cloning technology and resurrected Dinosaurs...then put giant guns on them.

* ''[[City of Heroes]]'' has the 5th Column group: Nazi supersoldiers, robots, (artificial) vampires, and (artificial) werewolves. For a short period of time these were retooled into the Council who were less German Nazi and more [[A Nazi By Any Other Name|Space Nazi]] with more diverse European roots. Then the 5th Column came back so now there are two groups that are practically identical.

** A good point of differentiation between the two is that the 5th Column plans seem to have much more to do with time travel than the Council's aliens. So it's a difference between Space Nazis and Time Nazis at this point.

* ''[[Persona 2]]: Innocent Sin'' had, among the many things that could possibly have made it unreleasable overseas, Nazi robots. {{spoiler|(And Hitler. He and his robots were hiding in Antarctica. Except it's not really him. It's complicated... or is it?)}}

Line 144:

* Averted in ''[[Command and Conquer]]'''s ''[[Red Alert]]'' series, if only because the whole point of the series is that [[Hitler's Time Travel Exemption Act|they eliminated Hitler right off the bat]]. Its result? We got Stupid <s> [[Soviet Superscience|Jetpack]]</s> [[Shock and Awe|Tesla Coil]] ''[[Soviet Superscience|Stalin]]'' instead...

* The second ''[[Freedom Force]]'' game has the [[Evil Gloating|ranting]] Nazi psychic Blitzkrieg go back in time to supply the Third Reich with [[Imported Alien Phlebotinum|Energy]] [[Meta Origin|X]]. The series being [[Affectionate Parody|what it is]], even the non-superpowered Nazis are [[Those Wacky Nazis|very Wacky]].

* The ''Secret Weapons of World War II'' expansion for ''[[Battlefield (~~Video Game~~)|Battlefield]] 1942'' added in various "planned", but not implemented, World War II vehicles and gadgets including, you guessed it, jetpacks.

* The ''Secret Weapons of World War II'' expansion for ''[[Battlefield (series)|Battlefield]] 1942'' added in various "planned", but not implemented, World War II vehicles and gadgets including, you guessed it, jetpacks.

* The [[Lucas Arts]] flight simulator ''[[Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe]]'' revolved around implementing German jet fighter planes during [[WW 2]], which were really in production at the time but did not see much action. An expansion added the U.S. equivalent, P-80 Shooting Star.

* Who could forget the bonus levels of ''[[Medal of Honor]]: Underground'' where you fight Nazis in knight armour (resplendent with their swastika shields), Nazi zombies (or aliens; this was the [[PS 1]] so it's hard to tell, although the level title "Rotten to the Corps" in which they reside could point to them being the reanimated dead), and, of course, Nazi Robot [[Super Soldiers]]! You even assemble your own [[Robot Buddy]] called Panzerknacker to help you take out the bad guys.

Line 150:

** With a dose of [[Ghostapo]] for good measure.

* ''[[Blood Rayne]]'' had some of this, most notably [[Mighty Glacier|Infantry General D. Mauler]] and the [[Humongous Mecha|Super Panzers]] under G. Gosler's command. It also had quite a bit of [[Ghostapo]]. And actual nazis in longcoats and rocket packs.

* The bonus mode of ''[[Call of Duty]]: World At War'', [[Nazi Zombies]], in addition to the [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|eponymous undead]], includes quite a bit of this in downloadable maps, one of which is set in a factory with swastika-emblazoned teleporters, and features a [[Ray Gun]] (by name) and "Wunderwaffen" as weapons.

* ''[[Crimson Skies]]'' has ''Die Spinne,'' a German arms cartel that is ''heavily'' implied to be front for the Nazi Party (the games are set in an [[Alternate Universe]] version of the 1930s). Their arsenal includes [[Airborne Aircraft Carrier|zeppelin carriers]], [[Zeppelins ~~From~~ Another World|zeppelin battleships]] bigger then most ''skyscrapers'' designed to ''eat'' other zeppelins, [[Lightning Gun|Tesla Coil like weapons]], [[Shock and Awe|an extremely potent fighter plane armed with said Tesla weapon]], [[Humongous Mecha]] [[Spider Tank|Spider Tanks]] and little things like magnetic rockets and remote controlled rocket launchers (in the 30's).

Eventually, it is revealed that the Nazis {{spoiler|are getting help from an alien "Intergalactic League of Fascists".}}

* Partially invoked by the early [[PS 2]] release ''[[Ring of Red]]'', an alternate history where (among other things) [[Humongous Mecha]] were developed at the tail end of World War II. The game's intro is a well-done series of [[A Mech By Any Other Name|AFWs]] spliced into actual WWII footage.

* This is the entire marketing campaign for obscure but awesome RTS ''[[War Front Turning Point]]''. The three factions, Allies, Nazis and Soviets, each have their different superweapons. The Allies get the short end of the stick with a massive shield generator, the Soviets, in a nod to ''[[Red Alert]]'', have freeze rays and atomic freeze bombs, and the Nazis get the best deal with three radically different superweapons: jetpacks, monstrous jet-powered zeppelins, and robotic exoskeletons.
