Yie Ar Kung-Fu

Karate Champ may have been the first real fighting game, but Yie Ar Kung-Fu has more in common with today's fighters. The protagonist, Oolong, must battle his way through a number of different colorful characters with their own variety of special attacks. Nuncha, Chain, Tonfun, and the other memorable opponents you will face seem to be inspirations for Capcom's future Street Fighter series. Yie Ar is another classic 80's game that could chew up your quarters like crazy! Oolong may not have been able to throw fireballs, but he can still punch and kick with the best of them!
