I always thought it would be funny to see cold war era games like "Rushin' Attack" from a Soviet perspective.  Like 'Capitalist Assault' where you have to make your way through greedy stock brokers and destroy the end of level CEO boss monster.
I wonder what CPUs/hardware those games used.  Hopefully they will be MAME'd someday.
