Fatal Fury
System(s): Sega Mega Drive
Publisher: Sega (JP/EU), Takara (US)
Developer:
Genre: Action

















Number of players: 1-2
Release Date RRP Code

Fatal Fury, knwon as Garou Densetsu: Shukumei No Tatakai (餓狼伝説 宿命の戦い) in Japan, is the first in a successful line of versus fighting games developed by SNK. Originally released for Neo Geo MVS arcade hardware in 1991, the game was ported to a variety of home platforms including the Sega Mega Drive in 1993.

In Fatal Fury, the user can select one of three characters - brothers Terry Bogard and Andy Bogard or Joe, who must defeat Geese Howard.

Mega Drive Version

The Mega Drive version was handled by a team comprised of staff from Japanese developers Gaibrain and Aspect, and was published by Takara. While considered by critics to be a respectable version of the game for the more limited hardware (as well as including all the characters in two player matches - something the SNK versions lack), the characters of Billy Kane and Hwa Jai are completely absent in this version of the game.

Gameplay

Playable Characters

Note: Terry Bogard, Andy Bogard and Joe Higashi are playable in any game modes while the others are only available in versus mode. Geese Howard, the final enemy, can also be unlocked in versus mode by holding Left on both controllers then pressing  START .
