Unlike the arcade game, the ported minigames do not always use the red, green and blue buttons of the [[Dualshock|PlayStation joypad]]; "button bashing" minigames allow the player to use the analog sticks or the shoulder buttons as well as the regular buttons. *''Salaryman Champ: Tatakau Salaryman'' was released in 2001 in Japan only (Developed and Released by [[Success (company)|Success]]) === Bishi Bashi Special === The European release of ''Bishi Bashi Special'' is a compilation containing two games; Super Bishi Bashi and Hyper Bishi Bashi, published for the [[PlayStation (console)|PlayStation]] by [[Konami]]. In Japan these games were released separately as ''Bishi Bashi Special'' and ''Bishi Bashi Special 2''. It is possible for up to eight players to play simultaneously via two PlayStation [[Multi Tap]]s. Each game in the compilation contains mini games, some are loosely based around arcade classics such as ''[[Breakout (arcade game)|Breakout]]'' ("Car Destroyer) and ''[[Pac-Man]]'' ("Super Gulper"). Other games, such as "Perm-Mania," in which the player plays as a dancer and has to keep in time with the rhythm to make his dancer's afro hairstyle grow, and "Jump for the Meat", in which the player plays a bodybuilder on a pogo-stick who has to jump high in order to grab a piece of meat, appear to be more original creations. Each game begins with a brief set of instructions in order to give the player an idea as to what to do in the game ahead. The game has a rather [[Japan]]ese feel to it with the accents of the narrator and general theme of many of the games being of Japanese origin. Bishi Bashi Special was released in the European PlayStation Store for PS3 and PSP on April 24, 2008.
