When KI2 was ported to Xbox one, i jumped on the online mode. But now it's a ghost town. Fun game. The n64 version was downgraded with minor bonus additions but KI2 was still the better version.
Hey @acidglow, is there any video available of you and GlaciusXL playing Killer Instinct 2 online? You're both some of the best KI2 players and I'd love to see you two go head-to-head.
EDIT: All Channel Patreon backers now have access to gain exclusive early viewing of my Streets of Rage 3 retrospective which is now on the Patreon page. Further to this, there are also thumbnail previews of two upcoming videos for later this week that will both be available as videos for patrons by Monday. Thank you all for your ongoing support and helping my channel grow to the size it has :) www.patreon.com/user?u=4432923
Killer Instinct 1 and 2 are to phenomenal games I love dusting off these old fighting games and playing them again I am a huge fan of the Killer Instinct fighting game series.
I sadly never got to play that much Killer Instinct in the arcades, most of my experience was with Killer Instinct Gold and I fell madly in love with it. Missing out on the arcade versions meant I wasn't bogged down by expectations and merely saw it as a impressive upgrade from the SNES version of the title. I didn't even know about the arcade releases since I was a wee lad at the time. What really made the game stand out for me were the cheat codes, giving unlimited meter, broken rules, easy juggles and ludicrous speed. Suddenly it was a game about as much reflex and dexterity as much as it was knowing how to do the combo itself. Gave myself a few blisters, but damn I loved how frantic it became.
I'm really curious how those backgrounds work. In the first one, it made sense: it was a movie file and it just picked a frame for where you were in the arena. But these backgrounds have so many more elements to them! how is that being managed?
I love 1and 2 so much Still one of my favorite fighting games of all time I was in my teens when they all came out i remember going to my local arcade to play ki1 they always had the latest fighters from mortal kombat to xmen vs streetfighter and on and on I remember walking up one day and seeing ki2 there i was blown away by it aahhh the memories
Probably unpopular. But I preferred the combo linking style of the first KI game over KI2. Yeah, it was easier to pull off chains in 2, but it was more prone to button mashing. I liked how more rigid and clean the chain link system was in KI1.
We had KI1 and KI2 next to each other. As a kid, I found that K1 looked better: K2 has weird shadow effects, lesser frame-rate, and its overall artistic style is messy. It did have better animation than what you see in this video, though.
Agreed. The reason why KI2 looked worse is because the original KI was developed and custom designed for the hardware the Midway cabinet used. When the N64 released it didn't have the same capabilities the KI cabinet had.
The only games that the hotel i went when i was a kid had, were, Final Fight, Gilligan's Island Pinball, and a port of Chakan: The Forever Man to a arcade machine
Great video Top Hat. KI2 was the first arcade game I ever tried. I loved arcades back in the day, but I never ventured into arcade fighting games before KI2. I was so amazed by this game that I had to play it even if I got my ass whooped and it was worth it.
Great analysis! Well informed and very consistent. I love this game and something good was the multiple endings of some characters depending if you killed or not someone with some relation with the character chosen (for example if you play with Maya the ending changes if you kill Tusk or not). On the other hand was easier to play than the first but, we miss some characters (I missed Cinder). The new look of the old characters were great, improved. About KI Gold I think that had the same purpose of KI of SNES, practice until fell ready to beat the Arcade game. Here in Montevideo was very popular, there were long queues and a great challenges between players. It was a golden era. Could you make in the future a Dead or Alive saga analysis? It were good to know your point of view.
Absolutely love this game! A great sequel! My only Beth is some of the other rosters not making yet like my personal favorite Riptor! I'd love to see some junglized version of him!
Also, keep in mind that manuals are harder to break than autos and the more end finishers you perform(performing each of the 5 once in game) will determine how long your ultra combo gets (you got either 4 or 5 more hits per end finisher)..
I would do a lot of things to find an almost complete rom release of the original Killer Instinct that was supposed to be on the UN64. Does anyone know if there was one?
Its only available for MAME Emulation. You need the .CHD file called kinst.chd. Its easy to google. But its exactly like the arcade, including the "Coming soon to the Ultra 64" opening trailer.
I most definitely would like to see a video covering Killer Instinct Gold! Granted, I am also wondering if a video covering the - shall we say - odds and ends of Killer Instinct could also be an option. I recall there being a Killer Instinct comic, though I seem to recall the art had some... issues. Then again, I may have never read an issue proper, just a mini-comic of it (as opposed to the full thing). I do seem to recall that the comic hinted at something being "off" about Jago's Tiger Spirit, hinting at some of the revelations from the second game's plot (and possible some of the original game's endings).
Please talk about KI Gold. I played it like 5 times and lost almost every match. If possible would you consider talking more about the difference and evolution in the series? I totally didn't know KI is that father of Parry!
The models however are made from polygons on the silicone graphics workstation, then converted to regular sprites. I wonder what the game would be like if they used full polygons instead of converting them to sprites!
But why did they remove the 3 older characters from original Killer Instinct? Considering the game went back into the past, Riptor would have felt more in place with the prehistoric setting.
Awesome video as always, your mad fighting game history section is a pleasure for lovers of the genre like me. Killer Instinct 2 is and incredible sequel and yes, as you I´ve always dream to have the chance to play de arcade versions of KI and KI2 in my home and finally with the Xbox One´s Killer Instinct Definitve Edition the dream came true. But talking about KI2´s Nintendo 64 port I know many consider that title not a port of KI2, I know there are differences like the 3D polygon backgrounds but lets be honest: Killer Intinct Gold its a port of KI2 , you may like the port or not (I know the problem for most are the backgrounds and the N64 controller, because for anything else is a good game and you know it) but a port it is and for me it is a great port, inferior to its arcade counterpart? yes but it is a good port with almost all the staff from the original arcade and full of new modes and extras exclusive for the home port. It is by far the greatest N64 fighting game.
We need the killer instinct collection on nintendo switch and while they are at it bring over rare replay also in physical cartrdge . I would buy it right away. Yes please continue the killer instinct series
Lots of MAME enthusiasts have been playing Killer Instinct 2 for a long time. It's a fun game and much deeper than the original even if it didn't create as much of a sensation back in the 90's. I hated Killer Instinct Gold when I picked it up at launch but have learned to appreciate it as one of the N64's best fighting games. Obviously, with the limited roster to choose from that isn't too much of a compliment.
KI Gold please. I loved that game and since I never played the arcade version I hold it in high regards. While reviewers were critical of it, it is still the best pure fighter on the n64.
I was never really a big Killer Instinct fan, but then a couple or more years ago, I gotten into the series after playing the first and second game on MAME, zSnes, and Project 64 (And boi do i LOVE me some KI1 and 2 on arcade). I use to be scared of Killer Instinct Gold back in the old days of my childhood because well..... I was just a kid so i was easily scared of the more gory stuff. (Even sometimes to this day i still am. I still cant face looking at Cosmic Carnage for the 32X after playing it for the first time. To me those fatalities were just too creepy and bloody) Playing these two games actually almost made me wanna get Killer Instinct 3 (Or Killer Instinct 2013 I should say. I dont know if anyone would call this 3). But then I saw that one stage with the giant spider popping out of nowhere in the background and well...... I changed my mind XD. But i will say this. Just like Cuphead and Super Lucky's Tale, Killer Instinct needs and i mean NEEDS to come back to Nintendo consoles. Hell even put Jago or Orchid in Smash Bros. (Actually Jago is a sword fighter so i dont know how the audience would feel. And well Orchid on the other hand would be rejected due to her apparel). Killer Instinct 2 Arcade will always be my favorite entry and Im glad to hear it FINALLY got a proper home release.... Even tho i dont own an Xbox One. By the way my KI waifu is Kim Wu. WHERE MY KIM WU BOIS AT!!!? XD
Cinder was my Favorite character from KI1. Right from the Get Go as a kid I was disapointed in KI2..but that was ok because I had high hopes for KI Gold....aye aye aye.
I still own and love KI Gold on my N64.. certainly it is NOT Killer Instinct 2.. it is a mix of the first and second titles of the series but I have to admit despite the NOT present FMV sequences in between everything else including the music IS AMAZING!! And still very playable as of today! I add that the background graphic was real 3d on the N64 not prerendered FMV as the arcade 1st and 2nd game. IT was a little watered down.. but sometimes even better.. with good camera movements, solid framerate and nice touches. It was amazing at the time.. the only downside was that PS1 games were full of FMVs and this title was there to show the lack of space of game cartridges.
My arcade was closed by the time this game came out. Never actually played the real version until it was on Xbox One. I had to settle for KI Gold on the N64... which was disappointing to say the least.
I dunno how popular this opinion is, but; Killer Instinct, Mortal Kombat and King of Fighters are three games/franchises that I found very intuitive. Not sure why though. As for Street Fighter; although I very much enjoy most of the series, especially all three of the Alpha games, they don't feel natural to me. Graphics, audio and character personality are all great in Street Fighter, and the game mechanics are - in my opinion - very good, especially in 3rd Strike. I just suck at them lol
Years ago around (i believe around 2012) in a website interview, the original creator of Killer Instinct confirmed that Rare did actually create a SNES version of Killer Instinct. He said that the SNES version featured featured more graphical effects then KI1 for the SNES. Unfortunately i don`t remember which website it was because it was a website i don`t normally visit and i probably visited it only once, and i got the link through another website. If you do a google search you will most likely find the interview, especially if you put the proper wording on the search engine.
I'll add my voice to those interested in a video on *Killer Instinct Gold* (the only entry in the series that I've actually played :P )
When KI2 was ported to Xbox one, i jumped on the online mode. But now it's a ghost town. Fun game. The n64 version was downgraded with minor bonus additions but KI2 was still the better version.
Hey @acidglow, is there any video available of you and GlaciusXL playing Killer Instinct 2 online? You're both some of the best KI2 players and I'd love to see you two go head-to-head.
Killer Instinct is still my favorite fighting game of all time.
Rhonda Ray mine too!
Gold for me, yup.
OH MAN would love to see the MAD story of the Killer Instinct reboot for Xbox one!! Love the show keep up the great work! :)

It's a pleasure 😎👍
Came for killer instinct 2,
But walked away that bit wiser about time shares.
Wanna be your own boss?Please give me your email so I can let you in on some amazing network marketing opportunities!!!
Would love to see Primal Rage, World Heroes or OG Samurai Shodown. Alternatively, maybe some bollix like Thrill Kill, Shaq-Fu or Time Killers!
I loved KI Gold as a kid! I was never big on arcades so it was the closest I ever got to playing KI 2. I would really enjoy a video on it.
12:57 I can recall that a lot of people thought
she was modeled after Janet Jackson
Yep, and Kim Wu was modeled after Paula Abdul.
I was just thinking Orchid look like Janet Jackson and was thinking about writing a comment but here you are.
Killer Instinct 1 and 2 are to phenomenal games I love dusting off these old fighting games and playing them again I am a huge fan of the Killer Instinct fighting game series.
I sadly never got to play that much Killer Instinct in the arcades, most of my experience was with Killer Instinct Gold and I fell madly in love with it.

In 1996, I was the assistant manager of a Namco arcade and it had the KI2 machine. I then bought KI Gold for the N64.
Wow
I own an Arcade Killer Instinct no1 and i love the fact it has a large decal on the side with Nintendo, Midway, Rareware and a Skeleton with balls!
Coolest arcade cabinet ever!
Dude ... for real your reviews are addicting!!!
The N64 version made me realize what a huge mistake they made going cartridge based cause they cut all of the cool cg
Gold was cool and all, but really, I just wanted an arcade port of the first one.
@@retromemories8522 AVAILABLE FOR YOUR HOME IN 1995 !!! ONLY ON NINTENDO ,ULTRA SIXTY FOUR !!! KILLER INSTINCT !!!!!!!
I swear that the first copies had a glitch that would make a character invisible after being hit. However, I can't find anything to prove this.
I was really disappointed to find out all the female characters look like Paula Abdul.
You see for me that's a feature not a bug.
Janet jackson.
@@ricky-sanchez More like.
Paula Abdul was a fox in the 90s.
Well Opposites Attract, you know lol
“A perfect combo”
Me: he said it, he said the thing!!!!
I love this game!!!! Music,combos,stages and characters badass all the way.
I'm really curious how those backgrounds work. In the first one, it made sense: it was a movie file and it just picked a frame for where you were in the arena. But these backgrounds have so many more elements to them! how is that being managed?
I'm guessing it's sprites or simple polygons on top of video files?
Do one for "Killer Instinct gold" on N64, and Xbox one, please!👍✌
The production of this game was top quality as was all Nintendo rare games. Just don’t really see that anymore with original IP’s
If everyone was sent 2000 years to the past why are there helicopters and even a street with a train in background? How did that slide through?
Fulgore and Jago are my fighters!
Love the Futurama reference
I was just playing Killer Instinct gold today boom you upload a video about KI2 awesome!!
I love 1and 2 so much
Still one of my favorite fighting games of all time
I was in my teens when they all came out i remember going to my local arcade to play ki1 they always had the latest fighters from mortal kombat to xmen vs streetfighter and on and on
I remember walking up one day and seeing ki2 there i was blown away by it aahhh the memories

12:52 Considering that Maya can shrink people in one of her finishers, I could imagine how intensive those snoo-snoo must be for Tusk.
We had KI1 and KI2 next to each other. As a kid, I found that K1 looked better: K2 has weird shadow effects, lesser frame-rate, and its overall artistic style is messy. It did have better animation than what you see in this video, though.
The original arcade hardware makes this game look so good emulation isn't even close to arcade perfect
@@BIGGIEDEVIL i have the original arcade boards and the emulator and they only look different because of the CRT monitor...
Agreed. The reason why KI2 looked worse is because the original KI was developed and custom designed for the hardware the Midway cabinet used. When the N64 released it didn't have the same capabilities the KI cabinet had.
@@tskraj3190 yep, not even close, the arcade board uses an entirely different design
The only games that the hotel i went when i was a kid had, were, Final Fight, Gilligan's Island Pinball, and a port of Chakan: The Forever Man to a arcade machine
I love the simple break down of time share scams
Ooh, I've been looking forward to this. Time to put the kettle on.
Great video Top Hat. KI2 was the first arcade game I ever tried. I loved arcades back in the day, but I never ventured into arcade fighting games before KI2. I was so amazed by this game that I had to play it even if I got my ass whooped and it was worth it.
Jesus...the cakes on those KI2 renders of Kim and Orchid.
They were definitely bringing the thiccness!
Nothing beats KI1 and MK3.
Great analysis! Well informed and very consistent.
I love this game and something good was the multiple endings of some characters depending if you killed or not someone with some relation with the character chosen (for example if you play with Maya the ending changes if you kill Tusk or not).
On the other hand was easier to play than the first but, we miss some characters (I missed Cinder). The new look of the old characters were great, improved.

Here in Montevideo was very popular, there were long queues and a great challenges between players. It was a golden era.
Could you make in the future a Dead or Alive saga analysis?
It were good to know your point of view.
I was a great fan of Killer Instinct 1 in the arcade and SNES, but really hated the way Killer Instinct 2 looked.
Right? It actually felt like they had taken a step backwards with the sequel.
Memories!!!...I spent so many hours and sooo much money as a kid playing this game in the arcade. I think it was the best fighting game in its time.
I'd love to see you cover KI Gold too, mate!
I have had killer instinct 1 and 2 on my modded original xbox for a very long time, those 2 games are my go to games
That's the exact resort me and my family stayed at last year in Orlando and we're going again in May
Absolutely love this game! A great sequel! My only Beth is some of the other rosters not making yet like my personal favorite Riptor! I'd love to see some junglized version of him!
I remember orchids theme song!!
The days before midway was squandering it's money by making huge failures.
But Psi-Ops was/is spectacular.
Always love your intros. Great Vid. Keep that shit up.
Also, keep in mind that manuals are harder to break than autos and the more end finishers you perform(performing each of the 5 once in game) will determine how long your ultra combo gets (you got either 4 or 5 more hits per end finisher)..
and more hits if you use shadow moves...
No mention of the crazy joystick movements requried to link Jago and others combo's. I never mastered linking all those double circle motions.
Enjoyed your video on KI 1 and was looking forward to the KI 2 video. Keep up the good work.👍
I only played this on N64 as Killer Instinct Gold. It was clearly one of my top 3 of that system.
Can you review Guilty Gear please, and by the way, I enjoyed the video!
BRILLIANT 🍾🍾🍾🍾🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!!
Thanks THGM 😃!!!
I would do a lot of things to find an almost complete rom release of the original Killer Instinct that was supposed to be on the UN64. Does anyone know if there was one?

neoasura ah ok. I’ve played that one. I was hoping there was one with options and a practice mode :(
What happened to the Review of the Killer instinct for xbox 1
I would LOVE for you to cover the Xbox version of KI!!
My first game on n64! Played it to for months! I bllody love this game!! )
I most definitely would like to see a video covering Killer Instinct Gold! Granted, I am also wondering if a video covering the - shall we say - odds and ends of Killer Instinct could also be an option.

Please talk about KI Gold. I played it like 5 times and lost almost every match. If possible would you consider talking more about the difference and evolution in the series? I totally didn't know KI is that father of Parry!
If you have Killer Instinct Gold, then there is no need to get Killer Instinct 2.
Once again like always you dont know what you are talking about
These were the good old days ❤. Could you possibly might do a mini documentary on soul calibur/soul edge series?
The King of Fighters series if you please..
Would love another KI video! Love these so much!
The models however are made from polygons on the silicone graphics workstation, then converted to regular sprites. I wonder what the game would be like if they used full polygons instead of converting them to sprites!
I think Midway found out what a mistake that'd be with MK4
I love the XB1 revival of the series. I'm no good at it, but it's still fun to play with great original and cameo characters.
Please do a video history of Killer Instinct Gold!
But why did they remove the 3 older characters from original Killer Instinct? Considering the game went back into the past, Riptor would have felt more in place with the prehistoric setting.
My friend killer instinct 1994 . 17.000 cabinets and killer instinct 2 ????? I need this info. Can you help me?

Great video Top Hat 👍
You should definitely make a video or two on Eternal Champions and it’s sequel; challenge from the dark side!
Best video yet
For some reason I was completely unaware there was a killer instinct 2 at all
Real
Question where is the leaked rom of killer instinct 2 for the snes
I would love to see a dedicated video on KI Gold for the N64!
We need the killer instinct collection on nintendo switch and while they are at it bring over rare replay also in physical cartrdge . I would buy it right away. Yes please continue the killer instinct series
KI2 was the only arcade game I ever beat. Then i got KI Gold (and still have it) and been playing it off and on since
Lots of MAME enthusiasts have been playing Killer Instinct 2 for a long time. It's a fun game and much deeper than the original even if it didn't create as much of a sensation back in the 90's. I hated Killer Instinct Gold when I picked it up at launch but have learned to appreciate it as one of the N64's best fighting games. Obviously, with the limited roster to choose from that isn't too much of a compliment.
For some reason I thought KI2 was cancelled and there were only a handful of incomplete builds out in the wild. Must be thinking of another game...
Maybe primal rage 2? Im sure that was only released in test markets
Matt Hawkins damn, you’re right. That’s the game I was confusing KI2 with.
UULLLLLTTRAAAAA COOOOMMMBBOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! lol yeah KI 2 was definitely the shyt . i was in the arcades for hours on end just for it
Hey I might be on my own here but I'd quite like to see a history of IK+
KI Gold please. I loved that game and since I never played the arcade version I hold it in high regards. While reviewers were critical of it, it is still the best pure fighter on the n64.
I remember this in acardes too the machine was really nice next to the KOF games the graphics were fast moving.

By the way my KI waifu is Kim Wu. WHERE MY KIM WU BOIS AT!!!? XD
Cinder was my Favorite character from KI1. Right from the Get Go as a kid I was disapointed in KI2..but that was ok because I had high hopes for KI Gold....aye aye aye.
I love KI2, but hated that they dropped Riptor, my fav character.
I still own and love KI Gold on my N64.. certainly it is NOT Killer Instinct 2.. it is a mix of the first and second titles of the series but I have to admit despite the NOT present FMV sequences in between everything else including the music IS AMAZING!!

My only issue with KI2 was the removal of thunder my favourite character from KI history
Snuh, snuh...
Just for that, here's your like, my good man.
Yes do a video on KI Gold!
Great video
Great channel
Can you do another Virtua Fighter
Ki gold was a great game but always preferred the prerendered graphics of the arcade port of ki2, imo the best ki game
My arcade was closed by the time this game came out. Never actually played the real version until it was on Xbox One. I had to settle for KI Gold on the N64... which was disappointing to say the least.

Xbox One Killer Instinct is still my favourite fighter this console generation.
Still have both original cartridges..SNES AND 64
I do too but keep my original games pristine by playing both Killer Instinct and Gold on flash carts.
Have you covered Power Stone?
also played that at an arcade during a Florida vacation as a kid. I remember being hyped for it to come out on Dreamcast.
Ulllltttrrrraaaa 64 combo!
