>Somone on /vr/ other than me mentions Budokan

This is a momentous occasion! Budokan is a strange and wonderful game. I wish there was an offshoot of fighters that took it's ideas and kept working with them.

Wasn't this just Karateka? Awesome game on 8 bit computers, strange and wonderful on 7800 and Famicom... Wasn't it kind of dated by Genesis?

No Karateka is almost like a primitive beat em up. Budokan is a very different game and much closer to what we think of as fighters now.

Also still very worth playing. It's got a very unique control style. Get a rom and give it a go.

Bushido Blade could be called a spiritual successor to it.

Meh. Check out Joy Mech Fight on Famicom

Only in theme. They're not similar gameplay wise. The interesting thing about Budokan is the way it handles damage. You have a ki meter and a stamina one. Stamina is basically your health but you get slower and weaker as it goes down. Ki is your attack and some moves strengthen it while others lower it.

The main game is like a fighting tournament but each round you pick which weapon you want to go in with and you can only use each weapon so many times so you need to think about what to use when. Kind of crude, doesn't work perfectly but it's really interesting to play.

Bushido Blade was a kick ass game in it's own right though.

Joy Mech Fight is much more a typical fighter modeled after SF.

Mein Negers. I loved Budokan but sadly my pirate copy of the game always crashed when I tried to enter the championship.

Bō master race.

There's Kengo Master Of Bushido on PS2. Not retro, but I've seen this game compared to it. Not sure how accurate that is, haven't played either.

Maybe so, but completely understandable. EA once understood its customer base, and wasn't a money grubbing pile of shit. Damn shame...

DO YOU MEMBER WHEN EA WASN'T SHIT?

The PC versions of it are hard to play

Was anyone ever able to beat the tournament? The CPU opponents on the PC version at least always cheated like mad by regenerating health and ki much faster than you, to the point where the last opponents became untouchable.

I wish I knew about this version earlier. I tried playing the PC version but the interface was so painfully bad I gave up and read the plot summary. It would have been better to switch to the Genesis version instead.
