anyone remember this old arcade......

Recommended Posts

It was in the late 80's and this machine happened to be sitting in a 711.....

 

The best I can remember is that when you punched it made a sound like, "poo poo poo" and when you kicked it made a sound like, "hike hike hike"

 

It was a VERY simplistic video game. Basically just a basic kick & punch fight scheme, and it just had to do with timing......I must have been about 8 or 9 years old at the time.....

If it had 2 joysticks then it was Karate Champ.

if that is the game that Frank Dukes and Ray Jackson were playing in Blood Sport, then no it isn't that one......

That game's had a bunch of different titles, but it's usually just called Kung-Fu. It was one of my old favorites both in the arcade and on the NES. You take your generic fighting guy, Thomas, and brawl through five levels of a giant pagoda to rescue your girlfriend Sylvia from Mr. X. My favorite opponent was the Magician on the fourth floor; if you jump-kicked him it DECAPITATED him, but his head grew back and it did no damage. Heh. Fun memories.

 

...yeah, like I said in the cosplay thread, I wasted a LOT of my youth on gaming.

As said before, it sounds like this game.

 

It's just called Kung Fu, I had it on the NES, and I still love it to this day.

There was an arcade game by the same people, called Kung Fu Masters, so it could be that, as I don't know if the NES Kung Fu was ever in the arcades.

EDIT:

 

Kung Fu was also an arcade game, so it could be that one also.

There was indeed an arcade version of the NES Kung Fu, went by the same name, was pretty much identical except for better graphics.
