**NEW VIDEO** Killer Instinct Ultimate Combo History: ruclips.net/video/2OM86p6D1OU/видео.html
What I love about Killer Instinct is the combo system is so unique that no other fighting game has and the announcer is intense and hype af. My compliments to the uploader. 👌
Thanks for watching and much appreciated. Definitely one of the best fighting games when it comes to combos.
@@terrencej18 I agree.
7:44 Glacius's OG KI Ultra remains my favorite to this DAY. He was smacking the sh*t out people with that 'Liquid-Metal Terminator' ice pick!
Glacius is a savage. Definitely one of the best
Agreed
The sound affects is what made the first 2 classics the screaming and the sound of the hits was crazy ki3 missed the most important part
Exactly!
The superior graphics, special effects, sound effects and unique character line up
and even animations are what made the first one so great. They definitely got kI right the first time. It was like every great fighting game rolled in one. I agree the 3rd kI missed the mark on a lot of things. It had the worst graphics out of all the next gen fighters. No stage Enders and horrible ultimates. They need another kI that reintroduces everything that made kI great. The game needs a graphic overhaul more than anything
Mr.Tweezy007 knock it off. Single digit iq man. The fact that orchid and Kim wu went from resembling Janet to looking like Drag queens alone debunks you’re whole argument. New ki isn’t even really next gen. It was originally made for the 360. If you only had a brain 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I can sit and watch ultra combos from the first ki1 all day it was way more intense the music was better
lucci B exactly it’s not the same now a days. The transitions into combos used to be so smooth especially the ultras
Ultra combos in the first Killer Instinct (Arcade) are the best
I agree
christianumk3 plus love when the camera makes a long shot after an ultra combo in KI1 Arcade
Ki 1 arcade was the smoothest best sounding fighting game ever. Imho.. I was addicted to shoving quarters into the MK2 machine until I heard Ultra Combo in the arcade for the first time....
If you were good enough to actually pull one off.... not an easy feat.
The first ki is the best.
And I thought I was a thug when I accidentaly did Master combos...
I remember spending countless hours onn tha snes. How satisfying was it when you did yahh first ultra/ultimate. Cheers for tha memories my man 💪
Thanks. Much appreciated. Those were the days. My first ultra was with cinder as I found him the easiest to do. First time and I lost my mind because I had no idea what had happened. I was maybe 8-9 years old around the time
Yassss!! I studied this game day and n iui ght to where nobody I ever played could come close to beating me. Even the better gamers would try and I'd bust that combo breaker immediately
Orchids ultra was always my favorite! I studied all the combos!! I remember I was 19 and would have the younger kids watch me play and be like "how are you doing all that!?" Felt like a game god lol
Nice. Back then, pulling off an ultra was one of the greatest things ever
@@terrencej18 them days
Thunder was mine
I was 10 when KI hit the arcade. All the allowance money I lost to the teenagers. I'd watch them play each other wait for the best one to go on a streak usually the only one capable of pulling off consistent ultra combos and id intentionally pick fulgore just to hear the lovely sound of him getting his ass kicked by jago....i never stood a chance but I loved every second of it.
Spinal reminds of when those two dudes was trying to fight Freddy Kruger's skeleton on nightmare on elm Street 3. And those skeletons on army of darkness aka evil dead 3 which are both hilarious. And chief thunder looks like that wooden Indian from creepshow 2.
I will say though Thunder is one of my favorite characters
This was a nice blast from the past!! The 1st fighting game that I truly got into!! Had a friend bring his KI cartridge to my house in 93 and said check this out. I had already played it once but didnt know what magic this game had in store till he just whooped my ass and I was in awe... like wayaminute..how tf you just do all that. He then showed me and I ran with it!!! Played from time I got up till I went to bed and even on work days I'd come home on my lunch break with my buddy and play!! Anyone who studied this game like I did could do em all with any character, but theres always just that 1 character that you where just beast with... for me, it was always Orchid!!!
That's awesome. Thanks for sharing
I like how you were able to chain her combos together. Same with Sabrewolf.
That is an awesome video.
Thanks man. No mess around.
Straight to the point.
Perfect
I appreciate it. Thanks for watching
spinal needs his shapeshifting ability in the new KI i miss that
I agree with that one. Definitely loved doing that on the first two.
KI 1 will forever be the greatest killer instinct game ever made
Also in KI3, I can’t even see or know what’s going on in the ultras. Way too fast or too much going on
I completely agree. One of the best games made.
Thank you so much for making this video. It brings so much memories of playing this video game.
I don't like how they sort of stop and pose in the middle of an Ultra combo in the newer game. I also don't like that thumping sound that keeps getting higher and higher.
I'm not a fan either. I prefer the older ultra combo styles myself
:) Even though I was born in 1998, I actually remember watching/playing this with my bigger brothers on the first 2 classic games on the Super NES and N64 and those were the fun memories. I wasn't really into the new one on the Xbox One, but I did play the arcade version of KI on it.
To think that the final bosses in the arcade KI games (Eyedol and Gargos, respectively) didn't even have an Ultra combo. Then came KI2013, Season 3, and now BOTH of them have their own Ultras.
ShiitakeWarrior I will say I was extremely surprised they both had ultra combos or even the fact both existed in the same game at the same time.
Killer Instinct was so underrated within the fighting games. Honestly the first one was always the best to me.
I know it's nostalgia effect, but the SNES one will always be my favourite in terms of everything: pacing, sound, the "ULTRAAAAA, ULTRAAAAA" instead of "ULTRAAAA COMBOOOOO", and everything. The original arcade version comes just right after it.
I agree with this.
Always will be my favorite version
I remember winning as sabrewulf in the in KI 1 and never touching him again bc his victory screen scared the shit out of me... good times
Nice. KI1 definitely brings back a ton of good memories from back in the day.
Sabrewolf is one of my favorite characters of all time. In ANY genre of fighting games. KI2 was this games peak imo
Sabrewulf is really good too. One of my favorites.
Tiger spirit always stay in Jago when he keeps fighting in good battles.
Jago is definitely a beast
The ULTRA,Ultra,Ultra, ultra… from SNES is the best video game sound effect of all time
2:42 I like this ending music on tjs stage it just tells you that you’ve won
Ultra! Comboooo!!
Ultra! Ultra! Ultra! Ultra!!
ULTRAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!
Killer Instinct would be perfect crossover with Mortal Kombat. That would be impeccable. I just hope Killer Instinct makes some new characters. Plus all those cool new characters that MK has put in would be so legendary and profitable 🔥
I agree 💯. Would love to see a crossover between those two. I think it would be much better than the MK vs DC crossover
Fulgore
Height: 6'5
Weight: 560 lbs
Age: 1
Me: wait what!?!??
Robot made 1 year ago
Also I think Jago is his brother isn't he?? I forget but someone in there are brothers
charms love Orchid and Jago are siblings 😊
I grew up playing this.Straight Classic Lengendary
Awesome. Definitely a classic for sure.
19:34 Unexpected hahahah
Is it just me or does Cinder Look just like The Human touch
Haha. He actually does
terrencej18 one more thing Can we agree that Orchid Is Fine Looking
@@jalenikezeue4114 She became a Tomb Raider.
My Best no 1game ever, ahead of it's time, allow me, the honour is mine, intro, coming at your home, since 1995, only on Nentendo 64, ULTRAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ( killerrr Instinct)
Definitely way ahead of it's time 😉
I still remember playing KI in the arcade when I first discovered Chief Thunders 999 hit combo. I could start from one side then constant air pop till they're trapped in the corner. The game doesn't end till they hit the ground so I would destroy a single person for 10 minutes while others laughed. Nowadays they would get offended, give the other guy a participation trophy while he screams at the sky, identifies as a woman and then cries in the his/her/it's safe space with crayons.
Right. These days, in a real tournament, you probably would get disqualified if the opponent gets offended for losing.
Half of what you said was unnecessary.
@@zaku0205 true, but it's all also true soo...🤷♂️
ULTRAAAAAA COMBOOOOOO!!
I did that once before as a kid I was like in my head ( WTF 😳 )
Very interesting.
Levi Davis thanks for watching man.
I like how for jagos they kept it the same with him doing the shoryuken at the end
In Killer Instinct 1 I made it my purpose to learn everyone in the game including Eyedol! I was 2 years old when this came out on arcade and I stayed on it! This is the first game that I ever played and ever had on Super Nintendo at 3 years old! I randomly found out everyone's moves with no internet or anything! I became amazing in this game with everyone! I play the other ones as well yet I personally enjoy KI 1 the best overall! From the characters, danger moves, ultras, combo breakers, shadow moves, doing moves faster for more points and damage! I can go on and on about KI! Also a couple fighting games ripped off of KI or just added their own spins to it as well lol!
Aaron Davis .... its me 🎉
0:56 T.J combo: “They call me the champ for a reason”
Maya, Orchid, Hisako
I love some Maya!
Orchid was super thick in KI Gold 😂
Hey guys. The point of the video isn't to show who can get the "highest combo". The video explicitly stated that this video was a compilation of ultra combos, not compilation of the highest ultra combo hits. That would have taken entirely too long.
@@terrencej18 how about 2,345 hit ultra it can be done I don't know if you have seen the video where this guy went all the way to 2,345 hits with hisako
Oh yeah, I've seen that video. It was pretty awesome.
@@t.cbasey6439 right. I've seen that video. Was very impressed. My hands wouldn't have made it that far hahaha
I know you can because killer instinct combos have a flow to them because most of the work is done with the auto doubles and shadow combos.
@@t.cbasey6439 you're definitely right about that
My top 10 Killer Instinct Characters
1 Jago
2 Orchid
3 Kim Wu
4 Maya
5 Tj Combo
6 Chief Thunder
7 Tusk
8 Eagle
9 Mira
10 Sadira
I'm glad Orchid made it in the top 3 ;)
Yea, glad to see orchid at 2, she was 1 for me! Absolute beast bitch!!
11:19 11:44 No fighting game has anything that comes close to a robot floating in the air for 4 seconds shooting lasers at the opponent
I never played KI on the arcade, only on the Snes. I feel like I missed a lot. But the toned down version has it's benefit. Like the anouncer just sayin Ultra (with the reverb) does something to me. But from the look of this the arcade versions are the superior ones.
Arcade versions were good but the SNES version was great considering the hardware at the time. Definitely ahead of it's time in my opinion.
They are for sure. Those were the days when arcade versions were far superior to their console ports. Killer Instinct was a true revolution in the graphic department, it was King in the arcade rooms.
Numa 2K I agree with these comments
KI/Arcade/Snes: the true og of ultra combos
KI2: haven't played but blown away by it
New KI: dosent even compared the first 2 and when i first saw it. I said "too much dubstep was envolved, and it wasn't as fast as the OG's"
Still have the black snes cartiage.
Fun story tho
I downloaded KI arcade to a usb thumbdrive and took it to computer class, and played it in front of everybody there.
Needless to say when I was inputting buttons on the keyboard at blazing speed with cinder I made my first ultra in that game and everybody spun in there chairs.
let's all agree that Kratos' devevs got inspiration from Thunder
I can agree with that!
Cool video, absolutely loved this game when I was a kid! I know the Gameboy version was atrocious but any reason you excluded it?
Thanks for watching. I appreciate it. Unfortunately I couldn't find a legitimate copy as the sites I normally would go to were getting sued and taken down by, I suppose, Nintendo or whoever else were targeting these roms/emulation sites at the time.
So you aren't actually pulling these ultras off on an arcade cabinet? Damn..
Newest video on the history of Orchid: ruclips.net/video/s09v-3cLNFc/видео.html
I just never like the long range phantom hit boxes..like wtf?
8:21 meow!
A lesser version of the Arcade version for sure..yet it is astounding just how good that 16bit port of KI actually was. Epic in its own right!
So some of the combos ( Like Maya for example) end differently between KI2 arcade and KI2 on the N64?
Christopher Catalano they both can end the same actually. But I was able to get her super flip or whatever is called in at the last second on KIG. But the only differences I've seen were the camera angles and the taunts, as sometimes, Maya in KI2 will throw her blades in the air as a victory pose or the pose as seen in this video (2 of them). In KIG, she always does the same 1 pose over and over.
You can alter pretty much any of their ultra combo in the N64. I think it is nice and I don't remember if it could be done on the arcade one. I like the Jago one on the N64.
I like the new KI more than KI2 or KI gold.... still love the arcade KI1 but that's because it was new and blew our minds... KI3 does it justice at least
Yeah and at least it was bought back instead of the developers stopping at KI2.
The eye beams of death is fulgore's ultra in ki2
Why does the SNES version only go "Ultra!"? Did they max out the memory in the cartridge to where they didn't have enough room to fit in the "comboooooo" voice?
That's definitely a possibility and would make sense if this is true.
I prefer that to be honest
I would have gone into hibernation if the Xbox One port of the original KI had perfect online play.
Same here. Wholeheartedly agreed
KI 1 arcade is definitely the best one here but it wasn’t no slouch on SNES
Agreed
Wow i was on fire 🔥
The nes look so clean
If they make a new KI for next gen i wnt to see them take it to the nxt lvl ultimates in the reboot were not as good as the old games imo
Yeah the ultimates are definitely watered down compared to the old ones for sure
Your alive?!
Ultra Tech yes sir lol
Gargos ultimate and eyedol its going to be epic on this KI 2017 witch is season 3
Never understood why they ain’t put spinal shape shifting ability and saberwulf multiple kick flips from KI2
Yeah those are good questions and I've wondered the same also.
Thunder n Combo were my fav.
Awesome 👍
Personally i hate that ultra with song at any hit.
Jagos ultra combos is my favorite mostly killer instinct 2013
Love de snes and arcade version of the first game!
Also ... de N64 game looks way worse than the previous versions :p
Thanks for watching. I also feel the arcade version looks a bit better than KI Gold on the 64.
I always prefer the ULTRAAA ULTRAAA ULTRAAA ULTRAAA to ULTRAAAAA COOOOMBOOO. thats why I loved snes. PS4 missed all those sound effects. So many special effects. PS4 messed up with KI
I do as well. Feels like it had more meaning to me than the latter.
@4:59 😂😂😂😂 ULTRAAAAAAAAA!
I find it weird how Cinder wasn’t in KI2/gold.
I also agree with that as well. Never understood why the developers kept him from KI2/KIG
ULTRAAAAAA CONDOOOOOOM!
Why do all the Ultras in the new KI always have to sync to a dance beat?
I don't know but i don't like this. I Turn 📴 the music when i play.
I thought I was the only one that recognize that LOL that's irritating I like the old Killer Instinct better way better
Mike Gorden (who made the music for seasons 1 and 2) had the music change to what is happening on screen so maybe that's it
Shit is terrible like damn bro if I wanted to beat someone Ass to a soundtrack I would play Def Jam vendetta 😂😂😂
Man Eyedol got triple digits
Eyedol is a beast!
SNES Glacius sounds like a cat.
Hahaha. He does.
Why doesn't the new KI on xbox one have finishers???
slickcross good questions
T for Teen but they added ultimates that can be done during the beginning or middle of an ultra
5:46 yea okay 😂
I hate when sabrewolf get bitten up sounds like a dog 😂
😄😅🤣🤣🤣
Orchids was always the best
Only played the SNES. But I like the "ULTRAA" better, not the "ULTRAA COMBOO".
1. XBox/PC (not too much fan of the music combo though, but it's cool)
2. SNES (I like the echo)
Somebody explain 0:58 to me 😂😂
Also... as a PS4 owner, this game would be the only reason I’d have an (cough..) Xbox.😢
I used to enjoy playing KI on SNES, back in the day, in spite of knowing even then that it was massively inferior to the NU64 arcade original. Nowadays, I tend to think very poorly of it when I look back at it. (Especially considering that one can now get BOTH of the arcade originals of KI and KI2 (including the bug-riddled initial release version of the first KI), KI Gold (via Rare Replay) AND KI2013 on XB1.)
ShiitakeWarrior I understand that man. Still one of my favorite titles on the SNES but KI1 arcade I enjoyed more and I feel was definitely ahead if it's time. While I'm still warming up to the Xbox version, at least we have some sort of a KI reboot after nearly... what...20 years? Lol
Something like that.
Mind you, it was impossible to legitimately perform 100+ hit multi-Ultras in the arcade originals. In the reboot, however... 😋
+ShiitakeWarrior agreed. It's pretty awesome to get over a 100 hits in the new one.
It's a shame that the newest KI is so slow compared to the first game.
I agree. I was really disappointed in the mechanics of the ultra combos in the new one.
You forgot the gameboy/gameboy color versions
Nobody talk about those abominations
I actually felt that new Ki combo is slower than past one
MANUELO DON'T GET ANGRY TAKE AN ANIS DEL MONO
U didnt realize how racist this game used to be until u heard Chief Thunder lol
lol
Karlon Johnson is it really racist or just stereotypical?
Bruh I have this game at meh house 😂
I’m sorry, but until I see an Ultra from the first two games that can match up with Shadow Jago’s ultra then the new game is better.
KI3 was not good to me but love 1 & 2 classic
End The Ultra!!! 😂😂😂
😁😁
I hate seeing orchid get beat up 🤦🏿♂
I think that the Ultra combos were easier to follow and more impressive in the older games than the Xbox One version.
(Arcade) são os melhores
UUUULLLLLLTRRRRRAAAAAAAAAÀA
The new ultras are super slow
I agree, especially compared to the previous versions. Orchid, Jago, and Combo Ultras are a bit quicker than most but even then, I don't like the "pace" of them
I definitely like the ultra voiceover but these Ultras are a bit slow in pace compared to older KI versions.
terrencej18 if only they sped them up !
Omen's ultra is faster than the other ultras
Very, very,,, very,,,,,,, VEEEEEEERYYYYYYY SLOW
The first two Killer Instinct games are so much better than the latest one I am not a fan of the newest one
Agreed 100%. Right there with you.
5:38 is terrible man 😕 different times
End the n64
Pj
