Shinnyuushain Tooru-kun/Mikie Arcade 1st Loop 新入社員とおるくん

Mikie initially underwent location testing in Japan under its international title, with the same graphics and high school theme that would be used for the game's overseas releases. However, Konami chose not release Mike as is in Japan due to the game's premise of having a protagonist sneaking out of school after incidents of school violence at the time. As a result, an alternative version was produced for Japanese arcades titled Shinnyū Shain Tōru-kun (新入社員とおるくん, "Freshman Employee Toru"), which replaces the school setting with a workplace. The classroom in the first level becomes an office and the teacher into a manager; the dance studio in the third level becomes the OL office; the other levels (the hallway, the gym, the restaurant and the outdoor garden) are mostly unchanged aside from a few graphical modifications, but the football players in the final level are instead security guards.
The game's soundtrack, which features chiptunes rendition of The Beatles songs "A Hard Day's Night", and "Twist and Shout", had permission granted by JASRAC in Japan, with a license displayed on the instruction card and printed circuit board.

ついに動画を見つけた❗️
マイナー過ぎるのか？
ゲーム名すら忘れたので
なかなか見つからなかった。
高校生の頃、シューティングや横縦移動のアクションゲームとは全く異なる新境地にハマってました。

I still have the Commodore 64 version of this game as MIKIE on a tape in a compilation called
KONAMI COIN-OP HITS.

You played the world version then. Mikie and High School Grafitti Mikie we’re released in North America and Europe respectively, whereas the game featured here is the original Japanese release, in which I’ve heard you essentially are playing as an office worker at work. I have my doubts, though, because it still looks like a school setting, and the attire that Tooru and some of the other students wear do look a lot like a Japanese school uniforms.
