Fatal Fury - Neo Geo MVS (Arcade) - Long Play - Part 1. Recorded on a real Neo Geo system. Later, I may attempt a speed run at the game, but as you can probably tell, I need a little more practice. However, I was hoping to show some of the strategies one could use to finish the game. Anyway, this is the first game in the classic series of video games, developed by SNK (now known as SNK Playmore). Its original Japanese name is Garou Densetsu (roughly translated, Legend of the Wolves), and it stars Terry Bogard, Andy Bogard, and their friend Joe Higashi, as they seek vengeance against Geese Howard. Garou: Mark of the Wolves and the Real Bout series, well known for their fighting systems, are well known sequels to this flagship Neo Geo titled. This game is where the King of Fighters tournament actually got its start! Not only was this great fighting game ported to the Neo Geo CD and Neo Geo AES home systems, it has also been released on the Nintendo Wii Virtual Console, as well!
Part 2 -
Fatal Fury isn’t quite the Street Fighter 2 ripoff that many suspect it to be. It actually began development before Capcom’s legendary game did. Also, while now a bit dated, Fatal Fury introduced unique new mechanics for its time. It included what would later be called “Dramatic Battle” by the Street Fighter Alpha series, which consists of two players versus one cpu opponent. It also made use of multiple planes of fighting, adding depth to the gameplay. The graphics, music, general presentation, depth of the storyline and characters, as well as the aforementioned gameplay mechanics influenced later games in the series.
This video was recorded from a unibios modded Neo Geo 1 slot MVS (arcade) PCB hooked up to a supergun (allows PCBs to be connected to TVs etc.). The recording was done via s-video from the system to a PC capture device. The unibios (universal bios) by Razoola provides a lot of additional functionality to Neo Geo systems, including the ability to switch between AES console and MVS arcade modes, as well as a jukebox player, cart crc check, cheat codes, and more.
The Neo Geo 16bit arcade system was far ahead of its time (which uses cartridges for the games), especially the AES home console later released that was based on it. Both the MVS and AES versions are highly collectible - and moddable - for great prices. The system became the home of many of SNK’s current famous series, including Samurai Shodown, Metal Slug, Fatal Fury, and King of Fighters. Check this out for more Neo Geo information:
