Team Mexico is 2 Japanese men and an Italian man that hangs out with them. Seems legit.

[@gianfrancoadrian589]

Yes that said in Art of Fighting Intro

[@gianfrancoadrian589]

I know, but I don´ t why SNK made him an Italian guy

[@gianfrancoadrian589]

Oh I didn´t know it.

24 years later, Japan stage still quite impressive visually. Prime SNK was truly something else.

[@BarbieBillionaire]

WOWWW!!! This series started out AMAZING from the beginning!!!!!!

[@S0LISTARA]

YOU GOTTA LOVE BENIMARU! A guy who uses English, says "Who the Hell are you?" and "Jesus!" A guy who knows some French (KOF XIII reference) A guy with EFFIN' 'lectric powers and electrified himself lots!

[@dragonstormx]

The infamous Rugal lives up to what I've heard about him, that guy is fast and really strong. I've read on wikipedia that a common strategy for beating him in the 2nd round was to just do some damage and avoid getting killed while having more health than him. Not sure how well that's supposed to work since he has such good spammable moves.

[@getter3in1]

people saying this game is a ripped off from street fighter has probably never play this game b4, the techique and the pace this game required are insane compare to the street fighter which were around the same year, and ppls go crazy with this game back in the day

[@jsb0714]

Street Fighter 2 had come out a few years prior to this.

[@getter3in1]

i do acknowledge that, but what time game has compared to street fighter 2, which took like 8 years b4 finally having a final version and also ripped off how many of you guys money?

[@Palmroxx]

getter3in1 Also, without this game we wouldn't even have super moves or dashing (by tapping forward or back twice) which are now almost required for a decent fighting game. SNK invented the super-bar/meter on the bottom of the screen.

[@getter3in1]

also team play technique mate, and i like how in kof 98 they provide the roll over super service

[@Retrorevelations]

It wasn't around the same year. Street Fighter 1 came out in 1987, and the one most people are referencing, Street Fighter II, came out in 1991. Fatal Fury, the first real SNK 1-on-1 fighter, also came out in 1991, but after SFII. The two games DON'T have quite the same play style. However, to ignore SFII's impact and major influence on pretty much all of SNK's fighting games (and any fighting games that came after it), is kind of silly. King of Fighters is great, and isn't a blatant Street Fighter "Ripoff". But give credit where it is due.

[@angelriverasantana7755]

I noticed this bit about Lucky Glauber, he wears Nike shoes in KOF 94, and the game was inmensely popular at that moment and the Nike company didn't file copyright. But in KOF 98 he got new clothes, and doesn't have his Nike shoes, and funny enough. Those 2 games are the KOF games released on Switch, and KOF 94 didn't change Lucky's sprite because it's a direct emulation. Well, Nike still doesn't give a shit, not even for 23 years, what the fuck. But still, the shoes were a nice touch by Shinkiro when he designed the USA Sports Team

[@littleblueriolu9093]

Guy from the Street Fighter Alpha series also wore sneakers with the Nike logo on them

[@Rotostorm331]

I use to play this on the Wii Virtual console, and I played the American Sports Team most of the time since they hardly appeared in any future installments other then 98'; Brain was right about Rugal, he's sick and mad! One thing I also learned from playing 94' was to use aviod stance to aviod chip damage and never jump alot since most characters have anti-air moves.

[@Aguz25]

Este, el 95' y el 96' fueron los KoF más artísticos. A partir del 97' quizá la saga ganó en jugabilidad, pero perdió en estilo. Simplemente fíjense en el detalle de los escenarios de este juego y comparen con el KoF 99, 2001 o 2002...

[@alancruzdominguez5074]

Aguz25 Perdió el estilo yo pienso un poco en el '96

@Metaloazzyable Iori was created around the time when KOF 95 was in development. So basically, he didn't exist when SNK was working on 94. So 95 was the game that he debuted.

I really respect you, Cubex55! I love watching your vids! You're really good and anyone who insults you for the way you play doesn't know much of anything!

Oh man this brings me back! While it isn't my favourite KoF game, it is still the first arcade game I ever played, and one of the first fightning games. I remember playing it every day down at the videogame store, on this huge capcom cabinet, good times. That England team sure got pounded! Love how their clothes rip when finished off by a special attack :D

How many people got up to Rugal the first time and were like, "one opponent, shouldn't be too bad," and then got flattened?

[@dandiaz19934]

Damn, I can't believe how good and detail-rich all the stages were. I really like the intros. This game feels a lot more immersive than entries, despite the fact that it is more archaic and less refined gameplay-wise.

If there was an option to select your team in the early KOF, what would your team consist of instead of going by country? Mine would be Brian Battler (USA), Ralf (BRA) and Mai Shiranui (ENG) from this game.

[@biwarayoganata]

I gotta ask; why is this series (KoF series) very popular in Mexico and Brazil? Most pro gameplays were from Brazilian players, funnily enough.

[@Lnblackberry48]

@@biwarayoganata I think it’s because Neo Geo cabinets were cheap compared to their Capcom counterparts so they flourished in Latin America

[@kanzenchowa9868]

Possibly yes. Alot of fighting game fans have notices the references to other non snk fighting game chars (e.g capcom) appearing in that scene. Apart from guile, there's another one that looks like akuma.

[@S0LISTARA]

The game is meant to be hard at first. They do tell you how to execute moves, but you just need to know how to get the hang of it. For the future, I do not recommend taking it all out on a game that has nothing to do with the fun of the game. Try practicing and/or calm down for the future.
