I'm Sorry, known in Japan as Gombe's I'm Sorry (ごんべえのあいむそ〜り〜, Gonbē no Aimusōrī), is a political satire arcade game developed by Coreland and published by Sega in 1985. This action game stars a caricature of former Prime Minister of Japan Kakuei Tanaka. The title is actually a play on the Japanese word for Prime Minister, Sōri (総理). I'm Sorry was made after the Lockheed bribery scandals, and satirizes Tanaka's greed by making the goal of the game acquiring gold bars. Despite the game's context in Japanese politics, I'm Sorry was localized to United States arcades.
