I've always been one for the silent protagonist like Ryu, but Terry just drips charisma. He is calm, cool, and collected. I love the every man approach SNK took with him. Working blue collar jobs, and a local hero to the people of the town like Stallone's Rocky.
On all of the major original Fatal Fury characters, Terry's personality told the longest to develop. But once it happened, it he took off in popularity. To this day, he's my favorite SNK character & he's a thrill to play as in any game he appears in.
Terry's journey is an awesome one. The vast SNK world, traveling the world. Then and now, it is amazing how SNK creates works of art. "Hungry like the Wolf" haha I totally agree 🎵🎶
Terry is one of my favourite characters of all time. Back in ye olde days when the nearest game you could get to Street Fighter 2 on the Megadrive was Fatal Fury, me and my brother really latched on to Terry and Andy. We were also a couple of martial arts mad brothers so I guess it just made sense that we would find them a bit relatable. Terry was always my character and he preferred Andy. I spent a lot of my childhood tracking down Fatal Fury games and the animes. I used to draw Terry vs Ryu, never thinking they would ever appear in a game together let alone three.
Great video, make more please! Thank you brother, I appreciate your content. You've brought me back to better times, and I've learned a thing or two about the heroes I grew up with.
I love terry. In KoF, Terry is surrounded by godlike corrupting villains, a bunch of edgy, cringe, teens with fire powers, very serious grim-faced martial artists, and aliens, and he's just a regular dude with 4 specials (one based on slam dunks), who doesn't care at all about any of it and just wants to spam power dunk until everyone is destroyed so he can go eat some pizza and hit on chicks at the mall
Please do RICK STROWD next. He was supposed to take the mantle of Fatal Fury protagonist from Terry, yet they gave it to Rock Howard. He deserves so much spotlight
I just love Terry. I know hes a american stereotype but hes great, His move set is fun and satisfying but come on buster wolf is one of the most satisfying super ever next to the Shin Shoriyuken.
Great content Mr Top Hat! Question: When are you going to tackle into 3D fighters lore? Tekken, Soul Calibur, Dead or Alive or Virtua Fighters also have interesnting characters and lore.
sadly i hate how he is nothing but filler in KOF story...but i am glad he is getting still the face of SNK..i have always considered him the ryu of the game hopefully SNK give him the respect he deserve in their KOF stories instead of adding more school boys with fire powers
I would love to see SNK get serious [no pun intended] in reviving their individual IPs again. I would rather play Art of Fighting and Fatal Fury so I could ignore KOF and ignore their over indulgence on emo edgelords.
I've only ever played the first in most of the SNK games but Terry was one who always stood out to me for some reason. guess there was just something about that BAHN NAKOO!!
Two things. First of all, one of my favorite things about your content is being able to see wrestling references while watching gaming content. Second, people say that Terry is more like a Japanese stereotype of an American than an actual American, but try to find a red-blooded American man who wouldn't trade in their day job in a heartbeat for walking around in a trucker hat and fingerless gloves, asking people if they're okay and then cold-cocking them and yelling "BUSTER WOOOOOOOLF" as they try to answer. You won't find one! 😃
I always thought the early Fatal Fury games were Reminiscent of the Street fighter 1 game. Didn’t know the relation was so close. Sweet. SF1 is my fav street fighter… Might be the only one with that opinion.
While getting the motions for the special attacks can be a chore [though the trade off is the special attacks are actually special. Compared to 2 and up where you can spam them] SF1 definitely has its charm and its a crime that Capcom ignores it so much.
Maybe it has to with the producer & designer of the 1st SF game jumping ship to SNK. Not surprisingly they would play a big role in creating both the Fatal Fury & Art of Fighting series.
I've seen all the man Terry has done well before he was really popular in the west. But yes, I do want to see more. Ya never know when the sobering truth of something not yet known is out there. Terry is a childhood hero of mine, and still one of my all time favorites. Part of it is that I really liked my adopted uncle Terry. Wish he could've stayed, but him and my father, that I really had a hard time with myself, had a back and forth issue. 😞 He can't back and admitted he was upset at the likes. I said it was ok, but I wish I told him I really would've liked him to stay. I should check up on him, but Facebook got mad I didn't use my real name supposedly and lost contact. I could get the info and should, but with nerve damage that suddenly hit me last year may see him well out living me. 6 months later and the doctors only finally got me an MRI 2 months later, showing I may have a chance but making me wait a month and a half before the first of 3 shots that need 2 weeks between them. If that fails, it's surgery, which could see me become paralyzed, or dead. My faith in the world and doctors is severely diminished and painful daily. But I try to hang in to see it through, and know I did all I knew I could do. These days nostalgia of better days is a blanket I try to wrap myself in. Terry here and beyond are two prime characters in my life. This comment went on longer than intended. But I guess maybe it's a kind of therapy, and a symbol why I keep looking at SNK as well done other games, shows, and movies. Games like this were an escape from harder situations, anger, and fear of my father. I tried to make peace enough with it, but it's asking a lot. Sometimes I wonder if I was cursed because I couldn't fully forgive. 🤔 But I think it just is what it is. And despite my dogged luck, all thankful I saw the best ages of video games and media. Hard to beat the 3 decades or so before this past decade.
I was lucky enough to find out Terry's story game by game in the early 2000s. It could be a great set of movies if done right. I still think its the greatest among fighting game stories...from his early beginnings to KOF to taking the son of his enemy in as his own. Could also have a separate Street Fighter Series and tie together at the end.
Great vid but you forgot to mention that that's Terry in the intro to Street Fighter where the Blonde hair leather jacket fighter that didn't make into the game is the one who breaks the brick wall in the games intro.
Question: I can check it out for myself later but, do the digital copies for fatal fury/king of fighters have online on ps4? How are the lobbies? I was interested in king of fighters 15 and this caught my interest.
What I don't get is how Rock Howard felt by being raised by his fathers murderer. Even if we call it a self-defense homicide or something, wouldn't it feel at least a bit awkward? Did he know his father was a psycho? I wonder how they settled things.
This has already been addressed in history. Rock never met his father Geese before in his childhood, he didn't give a shit about him and his mother Marie. When he turned seven, she got sick, he came looking for Geese to help her (because he could, he's a mob boss) and Geese sent him away. She died the same day. Because of that, he started to hate Geese. He knew he was a bad man. And wants to be a better man than his father. When Geese died after the events of Real Bout, he rushed Terry with anger because Geese was his father, but after the scuffle, Rock come to terms about it. Terry didn't wanted to kill Geese, only to win in a fair fight but he didn't wanted to be helped by the son of his enemy, he choose to die falling down his tower... That's why he adopted Rock, he wanted to leave the past behind. And till the events of Garou MOTW, he raised Rock like his son. Akin to how Jeff raised Terry and Andy.
Rock hated Geese. According to Fatal Fury lore, Rock and his mother were abandoned by Geese. When his mom, Marie, was sick, Rock went to Geese to ask for help, but he just ignored his pleas. It was on that same day that Marie died, and Rock hated his father even more. So Rock wanted to kill Geese and has no qualm being raised by Terry.
Geese was distant from his family and allowed his wife and Rock's mother, Marie, to die of sickness when Rock was young; so Rock was never particularly fond of his father for that reason alone. (and Rock's storyline in his playable appearances indicates that he had become aware of the full extent of Geese's evil at some point)
@@ppprime98K As the saying goes, like father like son. Gesse's own father abandon he & his mom to return to (then) West Germany to marry into the Stroheim family & siring Wolfgang Krauser.
Funny how you said The Rock Dwayne Johnson. He is a playable character in the 3D card beat em up gatcha game KOFAll Stars. The Rock and Rock Howard is cooking on the card and definitely those are eggs.
I still love how in kof Terry speaks fluent japanese but shouts broken English words while fighting
I've always been one for the silent protagonist like Ryu, but Terry just drips charisma.
He is calm, cool, and collected. I love the every man approach SNK took with him. Working blue collar jobs, and a local hero to the people of the town like Stallone's Rocky.
It's a shame that SNK always have getting beat up by that nobody they call Kyo.
On all of the major original Fatal Fury characters, Terry's personality told the longest to develop. But once it happened, it he took off in popularity. To this day, he's my favorite SNK character & he's a thrill to play as in any game he appears in.
14:15 Great video, but I have to point out the hilarity of seeing our favorite SNK Tae Kwon Do master presented as "Kim K." 😂
finally! a history of one of snk's greatest heroes
Terry's journey is an awesome one. The vast SNK world, traveling the world. Then and now, it is amazing how SNK creates works of art.
"Hungry like the Wolf" haha I totally agree 🎵🎶
" FEEL THE STORM ... IT'S COMING !!! "
I will see this thru
Terry is one of my favourite characters of all time.

I spent a lot of my childhood tracking down Fatal Fury games and the animes. I used to draw Terry vs Ryu, never thinking they would ever appear in a game together let alone three.
Damn. That is a pretty cool story. Never cared to look into the FF lore, so big thank you for making this concise and entertaining.
Even if you dont play the game you gotta admit the character's in kof allstars looks amazing that's one of the Terry's from allstars on the thumbnail
The legendary hungry wolf let's go his garou mark of the wolves outfit is so 👌🏾 happy they added it in kof 15
in a way Terry is the true Street Fighter, because the others as Ryu fights using a nsatsuken style.
Ironic since the creator of that franchise left to make Fatal Fury.
Aww yeah! Terry was one of my mains in Capcom Vs SNK 2. However I managed to elicit more rage out of playing as Rolento.
Great video, make more please! Thank you brother, I appreciate your content. You've brought me back to better times, and I've learned a thing or two about the heroes I grew up with.
I will refuse to accept anyone other than Terry as the main man.
00:49 Terry the GOAT for that
Terry Bogard. The greatest fighting game character of all time.
Who would say no to more Terry content?
GEESE.
Yes! Please make a Sequel!
Terry is one of my favorite snk characters
Top hat has been on fire with the legacy series I loved all of em so fair. Sf being my favourite
I love terry. In KoF, Terry is surrounded by godlike corrupting villains, a bunch of edgy, cringe, teens with fire powers, very serious grim-faced martial artists, and aliens, and he's just a regular dude with 4 specials (one based on slam dunks), who doesn't care at all about any of it and just wants to spam power dunk until everyone is destroyed so he can go eat some pizza and hit on chicks at the mall
Yes I would like to hear more about his crossovers.
Terry Bogard is my favorite Video Game character of ALL TIME! Love to hear more about him.
Please do RICK STROWD next. He was supposed to take the mantle of Fatal Fury protagonist from Terry, yet they gave it to Rock Howard. He deserves so much spotlight
Yeah, but there's nothing to say about him. No content to work with.
0:49 - SLAP THEM PLUMP RUMPS.
Terry's a manly man :)
Thankfully for us king of fighters XV comes out in like two weeks!!!
Real bout Fatal Fury special Dominated Mind is actually canon to the fatal fury series not non-canon
Also good video Top Hat Gaming Man
Terry Bogard is the dude
Another common W for Mr. TopHat! Thanks so much for covering our favorite boy!! I look forward to the next videos!
Informative as always!
I just love Terry. I know hes a american stereotype but hes great, His move set is fun and satisfying but come on buster wolf is one of the most satisfying super ever next to the Shin Shoriyuken.
Sooo, what I'm hearing is there's a sequel coming, right?
RIGHT!
*Proceeds to never upload SNK related content again*
Don't Bogard my Terry!
Good video. Thanks content creator
Terry is the best SNK character. It's sad seeing how SNK treats him.
Let's see that follow up mister moostach hat man.
That clip of Terry slappin' asses! How have I missed that all this time? That's classic!
The anime back in the day worked as marketing vehicles totally got me and my friends to hit up KoF
Definitely would like to see part II. of Terry's history.
More snk character history !! Love this
Great content Mr Top Hat! Question: When are you going to tackle into 3D fighters lore? Tekken, Soul Calibur, Dead or Alive or Virtua Fighters also have interesnting characters and lore.
I did not realize the correlations between Garou and Wrestlemania 18 and now I can’t stop doing the Conspiracy Keanu face.
Still wished they placed Terry in StreetFighter V
Or the up coming street fighter 6
Untitled Goose Game, it's a good time.
sadly i hate how he is nothing but filler in KOF story...but i am glad he is getting still the face of SNK..i have always considered him the ryu of the game hopefully SNK give him the respect he deserve in their KOF stories instead of adding more school boys with fire powers
I would love to see SNK get serious [no pun intended] in reviving their individual IPs again. I would rather play Art of Fighting and Fatal Fury so I could ignore KOF and ignore their over indulgence on emo edgelords.
I've only ever played the first in most of the SNK games but Terry was one who always stood out to me for some reason. guess there was just something about that BAHN NAKOO!!
Part 2 please
Lay it on me Top Hat!
Terry is the real street fighter
Hey, Top Hat Gaming Man! You should definitely do a SNK character documentary video on Mai Shiranui!
Terry Bogard: Hey come on
I'm in the pink today, wubba wubba
GET SERIOUS!!! This video is better than OK!!! IT'S BUSTA WOLF GREAT!!!
Another top video 📹 form the top hat 🎩 chap
What no mention of Terry's love interest blue Mary?
Or Lily McGuire and Sullia.
Andy was my favourite

Yes keep going chap. Once you’ve done all the SF2 characters (you have surely now?) get on to the SNK characters!
Dude's the whole reason I started wearing chucks once I could afford the as a adult.lol
"Are you ok?" Bustah wolf!
Give you reviewed so many wrestling games, it would be awesome if you revewed the Dej Jam series, Fight for NY is an absolute beast
Old South Town still existed during Garou: Mark of the Wolves.
I love all your pro wrestling references
Would love a part 2.
FINALLY!!! TERRANCE BOGARD!
I always thought the early Fatal Fury games were Reminiscent of the Street fighter 1 game. Didn’t know the relation was so close. Sweet. SF1 is my fav street fighter… Might be the only one with that opinion.
In many ways Fatal Fury is the real Street Fighter sequel.
While getting the motions for the special attacks can be a chore [though the trade off is the special attacks are actually special. Compared to 2 and up where you can spam them] SF1 definitely has its charm and its a crime that Capcom ignores it so much.
Maybe it has to with the producer & designer of the 1st SF game jumping ship to SNK. Not surprisingly they would play a big role in creating both the Fatal Fury & Art of Fighting series.
Nice one bruv
Needs more sequel.
I remember beating Fatal Fury at a nearby corner store when I was in junior high school. The series is awesome and the animated movies are cool. >_

Hey, Top Hat Gaming Man. You should definitely do a video on the history of SNK's sexiest female fighter, Mai Shiranui. Pretty please?
Busta Wolf🐺🐺🐺🐺!!!!
The reason I’ll never stop wearing red chuck Taylor’s
3 anime also to watch are, Fatal Fury Legend of the hungry wolf, Fatal Fury the new battle, Fatal fury the motion picture, in this order.
I was lucky enough to find out Terry's story game by game in the early 2000s. It could be a great set of movies if done right. I still think its the greatest among fighting game stories...from his early beginnings to KOF to taking the son of his enemy in as his own.

There were 90s anime movies based on Fatal fury.
Moar Terrard Bogard Plis sir! We are oh so hungry!

When you gonna do fulgore
I'm waiting for the wrestlers influence in video games. IE The Hulkster being part of Saturday Night Slam Masters and Final Fight.
In World Heroes too as Muscle Power
Sequel please!
7:46 i swear i thought you were gonna say Bezos
But the question still stands the test of time.. ARE YOU OKAY!!!? 😁

Hopefully you will do Ryo as well.

South Town seems like such a 90s martial arts movie asian slum town you would see in Jackie Chan and JCVD movies
Am I the only one that was hoping he'd wear Terry's hat for the video? XD

I love fatal fury and Duran Duran
Fun Fact: Sol Badguy is based on Terry.
