Bro tip: All beat em up's/hack n slash games are descended from Kung Fu Master. Accusing 2000's games as being clones of each other is retarded, period. There was already a long tradition of games before that point.

This one.

One of the first ever NES games, Kung Fu, was loosely based on the 1984 martial-arts movie 快餐车. In the movie, the character of Thomas is played by Jackie Chan, meaning this was a Jackie Chan game all along.

I still fucking love this game. It has never lost its simplistic appeal for me

Martial arts games general?

I spent an awful lot of time on that game, then playing with friends on the fields, kicking and yelling "kung fu ! kung fu !"

Right here. Never owned an NES, but I distinctly remember playing this game at my uncle's house when I was a kid.

First console I actually had was a SNES.
