    Like so many fighting game series, Fatal Fury starts off on a bit of a rough note. Fatal Fury: King of Fighters at the very least establishes the principal characters and themes of the FF and later KOF franchises, but otherwise this is a fairly dull Street Fighter II clone.

    Given its advanced age and the fact that SNK released so many sequels and other fighters, it should come as no great surprise to learn that Fatal Fury hasn't aged all that gracefully. The big, bold sprites still look great but the animation is poor, and the fact that you can only play as three characters drastically curtails the game's long-term appeal. SNK would refine the series as the years went on, culminating in Garou: Mark of the Wolves, perhaps one of the finest one-on-one fighting games in existence. Fatal Fury is therefore interesting as a historical piece or purely for nostalgia, but newcomers should probably avoid it and pick a more worthy example of the genre.
