| Athena (Video Game) | comment |
In the wake of Super Mario Bros, side-scrolling platformers with bright colorful graphics proliferated, and such mascots as Wonder Boy and Kid Niki were born to the arcades. So SNK made their contribution to this genre with their take on Athena, the goddess of wisdom. After she grows bored with living in her castle, she opens the "Door Which Shouldn't be Opened" and takes a plunge into the Fantasy World, losing her dress and leaving her in little more than a red bikini. Since everything is trying to kill her, the different kinds of weapons and armor lying hidden in the Fantasy World are key to victory.Athena was released as an Arcade Game in 1986, and ports to the NES, Commodore 64, and ZX Spectrum subsequently appeared. The former is the most well-known version outside of Japan (but that doesn't mean it's a good one). The original arcade game wouldn't be officially ported to modern platforms until SNK Arcade Classics 0, a 2011 compilation for PlayStation Portable with all of SNK's pre-Neo Geo games.While Athena's future descendant, Athena Asamiya, appeared in Psycho Soldier and The King of Fighters, the original Athena would not appear in another game until the 2000s, when she appeared as a Guest Fighter in SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos and NeoGeo Battle Coliseum, as well in various other games for handheld consoles. In the wake of renewed interest in the character, a sequel for mobile (Athena: Full Throttle) was released in 2006, using similar sprites and gameplay while introducing a second character in Athena's maid, Helene.The Other Wiki has an article about this game here as well its sequel. To see more about Athena Asamiya, the descendant of this Athena, take a look at Psycho Soldier and The King of Fighters.Not related to Athena: Goddess of War, except for how that's one of Classical Mythology Athena's titles. | |

Stripperiffic: Athena fights monsters and demons with just a red bikini. Also, Helene, a Rose-Haired Sweetie version of her, also fights in just a bikini, albeit a white one. | |

Flung Clothing: The opening of the arcade game shows Athena losing her dress while falling into the Fantasy World. Whether this is because of the wind during the fall or if Athena actively took off her dress is anyone's guess. | |

Expy: Multiple occurrences: Athena, obviously, is based on the goddess of wisdom from Classical Mythology. Also, various of the monsters in this game came from the same base. The final boss of the first game, Dante, is not based on Dante, but rather Cerberus. Helene, Athena's maid and the second playable character in Full Throttle, is loosely based on Helene of Troy. | |
