The last seconds of countdown some dude came over and gave us a full handful of quarters to finish this game.

    Sure looks like Ryu was trying to beat some WWF Superstars to win a championship belt.

    This is one of my favorite arcade games.
    With the revival of beat em ups, I always thought that a modern, ultra gory take on this would be good. Like, build in a sword swing into the 3 hit basic combo.
    This game gets slaughtered compared to the NES variant, but as an arcade game, it was great for its time. Think it won arcade game of the year in the US in 88.

      You could play if you really wanted to within the next 5 minutes.. Emulators abound, MAME rom easy to find. Get a bluetooth controller and voilà. You could play even in your phone.

    I never realised that the "Ninja Gaiden" game Americans kept going on about was "Shadow Warriors" that I grew up with at the arcade.

    The Vegas stage has a knock off of Union Plaza called Plaza for copyright purposes. But it now is called Plaza. But ninja fights on Fremont happen every night.

    This an awesome game! At the beginning of every stage, Ryu jumps right through the screen and the screen literally breaks. That exact scene is actually my WhatsApp profile pic! 😊

    For the love of God, Ryu, just use the crosswalk like a normal person. You don't have to swing through traffic. Press the button and wait. You're going to end up on the news for stunts like this
