Whether a woman who kisses the hero and sends him off with money and weapons be a humbly dressed frontier woman or a prostitute, she still only functions as a helper to the heroвЂ™s violence.

The inherent conflict between the two sequences is within the fact that the action is the same, but the non-provocative attire of the woman-helper theoretically changes the actors. In the Super Nintendo version the exact same sequence occurs, but a fully dressed woman performs the same function instead of the prostitute. Upon reappearing from the shop the hero has a scantily clad prostitute on his arm that kisses him and either offers money or a new weapon. In the original game the player is allowed to run in to any shop with an open door during the town shootouts. The portrayal of women in the two games is likewise contradictory and censored in the Super Nintendo version. Her defense of the Indian Chief, that вЂњHe was only following orders,вЂќ establishes them both as victims within the game world. The Genesis version dubs this Indian вЂњChief Scalpen,вЂќ while the censored Super Nintendo chief is titled вЂњChief Wigwam.вЂќ After defeating the Chief in either version, an Indian girl runs up to him and pleads with the player to spare his life. Similarly, the player is placed in a death match with an Indian tribal leader at the end of the level in both versions.

The Super Nintendo version, released a full year later in 1993, replaces the Indians in this level with the same bandits and banditos as previous levels. One level in the Genesis version, though, is set on a rocky hillside populated by Indians with tomahawks, bows and arrows. The games present the player with frontier towns, trains and forests populated exclusively by armed bandits and knife throwing banditos. Both versions of the game center on violence even while they both presents a more complex view of the American old west. Sunset Riders, released by Konami for the Sega Genesis and later NintendoвЂ™s successor console, the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, feature significant differences from one another.
