Beggar Prince, originally known as Xin Qigai Wangzi (Chinese: 新乞丐王子; pinyin: Xīn Qǐgài Wángzǐ; Wade–Giles: Hsin Ch'i-kai Wang-tzu; lit.

An English translation of the Sega Genesis version was produced by the North American company Super Fighter Team.

The game's unique cartridge hardware was designed by Kim Biu Wong, head of Tototek, and Super Fighter Team president Brandon Cobb.

The third production run is notable as the box and manual art were changed and, more importantly, the game's save feature had been re-programmed to allow full functionality with all Genesis, Mega Drive and compatible systems (such as the Nomad, 32X, CDX, X'Eye, Laseractive and so on).

On August 6, 2013, the game was released for Windows and Mac OS X, in the form of a compilation package of three Super Fighter Team RPGs, the other two being Legend of Wukong and Star Odyssey.
