Are you from Milwaukee?? We had an Aladdin’s Castle on 76th street next to a movie theater back in the day. Unless Aladdin’s Castle was a franchise
First time I played KI on the arcade I was blown away.
Killer Instinct is a killer game. I remember buying it for the Super Nintendo, pure awesomeness!
The killer Instinct game for Xbox one has the arcade game port as a bonus,is great.
1994, Aladdin’s castle too in the mall. Was awesome getting out of school and heading to the arcade with friends and line up quarters for who was next. We are blessed to have gotten to experience this. Although I feel old AF now at 40.
I definitely always saw KI as an amalgam of MK & SF. How about Primal Rage? Anyone remember that game? I always lol @ the cheesier fatalities in KI and Primal Rage.
Playing primal rage at pizza hut
@@CPUjunkie Haha yeah everyone always tells me they remember playing Primal Rage at a Pizza Hut lol. I played mine at a local deli way back. I rarely saw it at arcades though like I would MK, SF, KI, Tekken etc.
KI was the "thing" back then and there was no other game like it. I fondly remember back in the day 30-40 people would stand behind watching me beat Killer Instinct at Time Out in the Georgia Square Mall. These were some of the best times of my life playing at the arcade inside the mall. Will never forget them awesome days!👍
KI is probably my third favorite fighting game of all time behind SF2 Turbo and MK II. But I never got a chance to play the arcade game itself. It was always crowded and I would just go and play something else. It was the SNES port that my friends and I would play on a regular basis
Wow, i had totally forgotten about Aladdin's Castle! I used to work for Namco during this time. Yes those KI arcade systems DID have a small harddrives inside of them. We used to put security screws in the back of these cabinets, to keep them from being opened, although that didnt always help. Great video, good memories!
What a coincidence as the other day I was thinking of the KI's soundtrack (out of nowhere) and start listening to it doing chores around the house. Spinal's theme is so good and so is Cinder's! My main character was Glacius and I thought I was pretty good at the arcade destroying other players with him. However I'll never forget playing against some random guy and he picked Eyedol and I got completely DESTROYED!.!!!
Hahaha,fun times and it so sad kids/teenagers these days will never experience what we all did.
BF6,B1,F6,B1,F6,B1,F6,FDDB3,BDF1 Somehow etched into my memory for how to do a combo for Orchid. I played that so much on the SNES but never felt like I was good at it.
Never got to play the arcade version but I played the super Nintendo version, absolutely great memories of me and my best friend playing this into the morning on the weekends when we were 11yrs old.
I love this game in the arcade back in the days. I remember we have one in our College cafeteria break room and OMG I must have spent over 200 dollars in quarters on the machine alone. This arcade and SF Alpha's machines on campus was crazy. We skipped classes just to play matches. So many good memories. I miss the 90s.
I remember seeing Killer Instinct Arcade cabinet at the bowling alley and being mesmerized by how cool it was. Also when, the N64 version came out, walmart had a demo set up, and I remember seeing someone doing a 200 hit combo or something crazy like that.
You're right, it was a Cinder glitch, could be done on the arcade too!
@@ghkillah1995 Doing massive 100+ hit combos wasn't a one character glitch. I personally button mashed myself into one with Saberwulf that I will never forget. I was so confused I stopped mashing and just watched, then continued to start mashing again because it was the most insane thing I had ever seen in a game and I didn't want it to stop.
@@billymerritt420 I believe it!! I am speaking from experience that Cinder was the first character that was found out here locally in my old ancient arcade that's long gone. I remember seeing the combo lists of many that seemed to be impossible. Funny enough, in MKII I watched a middle aged guy at the time use Shang Tsung to morph into Sub Zero, deep freeze the opponent, perform a Babality and at the time he morphed back into Shang, it glitched the screen lock to where he could still move, to which he uppercutted the baby into a pile of fleshy blood and bones. So cool to watch!
This is crazy, i litterally just found and played the arcade machine last night for the first time in my life. Had a blast playing it even though it was difficult for me to input my snes knowledge into an arcade stick control. Definitely will go back to sharpen my skills when i have free time, hearing the announcer screaming "killer combo" is just too hype, awesome experience.
The sound and soundtrack on the arcade was insane. Def caught peoples attention with the crazy never before seen type graphics and combo game play. I also never bought an arcade 1up but have been tempted to get KI arcade 1up just to get that arcade quality.
Killer instinct had the most amazing sounds as you walked into the arcade. Just hearing those combo sounds & combo breakers were so epic! Excellent voices that sounded deep & powerful. It blew my mind. The TMNT arcade game had the same impact on me.
Love KI. Each one is great in its own way. But nothing came close to the impact of the original Arcade version. It just stood out totally compared to any game in an arcade at the time. Fun fact about original KI Arcade version, the volume adjustment in the system for operators to set was "secretly" the lower volume of the game, each level of announcement like bigger combo callouts was subsequent louder than the lower level. The reason you would hear "Ultraaaa!" and "combo breaker" from Across the arcade can be attributed partially because of this as those were the loudest sounds the game would make to attract attention.
I was one day at the market and the guy from whom I was getting my games usually, told me to try a SNES cart which had Mahjong on its sticker and said that the person who gave this to him said it wasn't Mahjong inside, but a fighting game.
Naturally, it made me even more curious so I bought it and went home. Keep in mind that the cart was very much original and there were absolutely no signs of it being open and having its pcb replaced, so to this day I'm not sure if that wasn't somehow a mistake in the factory processes.
I arrived at home and plugged the cart into my SNES and powered it. What came after this, simply blew me away. When the intro and especially the music started to play, I instantly got goosebumps. I think I listened to that main theme song for at least 100 times if not even more.
So yeah, Killer Instinct on SNES was freakin' awesome. I own an SD2SNES Pro for my Super NT, but I also bought the original SNES Killer Instinct cart because I loved this game so much back in the day.
Always loved Aladdin's Castle. Nothing beats that Beaumont Ave Bakers though!!! I love this game.
Going into the arcade and hearing it for the first time was a lasting memory. I was 12 years old and heard people screaming and the arcade volume on the machine set to MAX. Someone did fulgores machine gun ending and it was so loud. The graphics at the time.. just super impressive and still look good to me today. They hold a special quality. For me KI is something I've always wanted to own a real arcade for, just obviously not practical. Only game to hold a close arcade nostalgia level would have been MK2. Special time for me as an arcade video game player.
I was a teen in the 90s.. Forget Mortal Kombat, Tekken and Street Fighter.. The moment I saw the Killer Instinct arcade was it for me.. I spent hours at the playing this game. Man! so many memories.. everything was so much easier then. Thanks for the video!
Such a great game! I have an original KI arcade machine in my house and I fire it up every week at least to play and hear that attract mode!!! Still gives me goosebumps till this day.
Killer Instinct definitely made an impression on me. I sunk so many quarters into that game that I started to play in bigger arcades to see how long I could last. I did pretty well with my favorite character Spinal. Of course I bought the SNES version with the bonus Killer Cuts. Still have both to this day. Love it. Also recently picked up the Killer Instinct Vinyl soundtrack...didn't know it existed. What a treat. Hope MS/Rare brings a new one out, although the recent release was fantastic that lived on for far longer than I thought it could have. Love them all.
Man I have Killer Cuts on CD as well from my rental store, they gave it to me as a kid for renting the game so much. Very cool store that's sadly no longer here. I do have a question, where did you find the LP Vinyl from? I'm definitely interested!
First saw this game in college. This game was available on campus and one of the guys playing it had a partial list of some of the combos from a video games newsgroup. He was playing Fulgore and was doing those 8 hit combos consistently. Everyone who watched was amazed. I didn't really play it much and was hoping for the "Ultra 64" release. Ended up with the SNES one with the Killer Cuts CD. Loved the music, but can't really do the combos. Still can't pull off the combos that well!
To me, at the time this was released, it filled the hole that was me getting over playing Mortal Kombat. I was still obsessed with Street Fighter and had just had my first experience playing King of Fighters, which blew my mind. Mortal Kombat was great and everything but it didn't hold my attention the same. The KI cabinets were always SO loud in the arcade you couldn't help but get drawn into it. Still holds up today too in my opinion. Also here for the thumb-butt.
I play this quite often. The mechanics of this game hold up well. First played it in the arcade. Friend of mine got it for the SNES. All I had at the time was a gameboy still had fun.
The first time I played KI was at a Walmart Supercenter, which seemed like an incredibly huge store when it first opened with an arcade room, videostore, etc. And it seems like most arcades I played post-SF2 took 2 quarters for a credit.
Happy childhood memories with killer instinct 👍 and never broke a controller unlike the ones we get these days.
Killer Instinct is one of the many games that when I see it/hear it, instantly takes me back to my childhood.
First time I saw the killer instinct arcade game I was blown away. The powerful sound, amazing graphics and the design of the unit was awesome. My all time favorite arcade game.
KI was my alternative go-to if I got tired of SF2 or MK. Just the booming announcer and music really attracted me to the game, and I played it to death on SNES, along w/the Killer Kuts CD...loved the music on it! Having the OG games and the rebooted KI is what prompted me to get the Xbox One, and even though that console had its problems, my KI memories started coming back! But eventually, I transferred it to the Series X and never looked back on the One LoL!
The closest arcade I know of was an Aladdin's Castle with Namco branded tokens in Illinois. I have KI memories at my bowling alley but had Soul Caliber and Hydro Thunder tournaments at the arcade!
I absolutely LOVED KI arcade, I got so good with most of the characters, I even knew most of their Ultra combos, but Orchid & Fulgore were my favorites. I still play the SNES version
lol I'm pretty sure we grew up in the same Inland Empire area. i remember Killer instinct was the loudest machine in the whole arcade.
Loudest cabinet in the arcade!
Been to many arcades all through my life from 80s on and never seen or had a chance to play killer instinct.
These days I think the saddest thing about retro gaming is the fact that your old 90s buddies don’t come knocking at your door when the game powers on. It feels lonely, almost like you are missing the key accessory to the nostalgia.
Thanks for making this vid, relived childhood memories through listening and it was a cool watch! Keep it up
SF2 was the first arcade that charge us .$.50 over in my area. Which force me to the Neo Geo arcade because it was only $.25. Funny enough the first time I saw a KI machine was at the local mall as well. They made sure to make it the loudest. When that bad boy drop on the snes. We as in my brother and I, pick it up at the K&B toy store in that same mall. I remember the Killer Cut CD as well and how cool a black snes cart was. I think the only other cart I had that was color was Spider Man Maximum Carnage which was red. Fulgore became my main instantly before I eventually learn everyone else. Fun times. I don't get excited about games release like that anymore. It was a magical time back than. Gone are the day where I put hours upon hours into learning the craft of a fighting game.
Oh yeah I was just as excited for KI2 arcade as well. I am one of the few that like KI2. Fighting games in my area in general always draw a crowd. This was no different. I than remember waiting in anticipation for KI2 gold on the N64. Which I never own. I ended up renting it and never owning it myself. It was an ok port and I never ended up putting much effort into it. I remember trying to learn Tusk in the game because I am a big fan of the Conan movie. Yeah it wasn't the same. Felt like everything was harder to do. Drop it real fast.
I've since bought it on the Xbox one. Both KI 1 and 2 came with the newest version of KI that recently came out. The new one just got to complicated for my old brain, but I still boot up the old KI on the Xbox every now and than.
Arcade 1Up just announced a Pro-Line arcade of Killer Instinct which is taller (67.5") and wider than a standard 1Up. 19" screen, wider control deck with the correct slant downward, upgraded speakers and marquee, happy sticks and buttons, molded coin door with light-up coins slot for 1-2 player start and extra goodies we don't need. The price point is rumored at $999. I'm definitely picking it up.
Our Aladdin's Castle has the same setup and it was almost the kind of moment as when I first saw a Street Fighter II...but that opening music was amazing!
There was only one arcade in my area that had a killer instinct but you could never get to it. Always too many people around it. But we were able to get plenty of time on primal rage.
I have still have the Killer Instinct 2 Arcade Cabinet from my local arcade back in 2004. Love that game!
I remember experiences in the arcade when I was a young kid 50 Cent's was like the newer games and twenty-five cents where the old games so was expensive but what I really liked about it was easy to perform special moves, fatalitys, blood, it was Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat together which became so popular with hidden characters like eyedol
I remember seeing in the arcade back in the day and yes I had to buy the killer instinct arcade1up. It's worth every dollar
Thanks for sharing the memory M.L.P.
I no longer have the game but I still have the CD. Love the songs on it!
That Killer Instinct storyline sound like a soon to be reality 😅
Mine was Street fighter 2 championship edition
I walked into Golfland and was blown away …still thinking about getting the arcade 1up big blue ..but space is limited in my apartment 😕
I too remember seeing it in the arcade and kids gathering around. It was like nothing else.
I learned to use jago very well, but now I suck.
Still arguably my favorite fighting game.
My fav arcade memory with killer instinct is blowing people's mind with code to play as Eyedol and pulling off his unlimited combo. Pull that off against an opponent and they would usually just walk away from the machine than watch me combo their corpse until time ran out lol
my first experience with Killer Instinct was on the SNES when i saw my friend bought it at a game store, we played it none stopped i was amazing, that i bought me own copy at a KB store i still have the game n CD that came with it. i never knew it was an arcade port until i went to an arcade n i saw both Killer Instincts games their.
I don’t have my disc anymore, but if I remember correctly there were hidden tracks at the end of the Killer Cuts CD
in ther lates 90s we had a mexican food place across from our high school and they had 3 arcoades inside and KI was packed with people around even into 1999
Loved this game but didn't know it had a story lol. Great video.
Your KI story sounds exactly like mine. Alladin’s castle and all.
I love Killer Instinct it's one of my favorite games and one that i have a lot of memories, i played the super nintendo version first, a friend lent the game to me and i was instantly hooked, from the moment where i simply saw that black cartridge to where i made my first awesome combo with Cinder, and i actually got that cartridge when i traded a Winged Dragon of Ra Yu-Gi-Oh card with that same friend.
I remember seeing an Ultra combo in the arcade for the first time. That's what you knew set it apart from the others. Then remember how MK3 had combos after this game?
This game has some good music too.
The arcade game was awesome. I had an she's, but never got the Snes version. I didn't play any beyond that.
my arcade bar just got this :)
Spent a lot of money on this one back in the day. Even went to DC for a KI Tournament to launch the SNES version.
Great video MLP.
To late now, but this Christmas arcade 1 up had a sale where ki and mk legacy were on sale for 299 and 350, that's basically 2 for 1 arcade cabinets
I remember going to the arcade and seeing killer instinct. The graphics were ahead of it's time and it was loud!!!! Even though the super Nintendo versus didn't have the moving profile animations it had everything everything else that was needed which were the combos! I felt the same way about killer instinct 2 it didn't have the same charm as the first one. Maybe because by that time I was playing Tekken and street fighter alpha. Anyway killer instinct one is still the best and wish the new version of would have came out on the PlayStation. Oh welp
This was the best 1v1 fighter back in the day. 👍😎👍
Superb killer game
I'm waiting for my arcade 1up KI
KI is my all time favorite fighting game
in canada it was a dual screen full blast awesome game another one was wrestlefest :)
I had killer instinct on the Super Nintendo I spent hours on it it was great my mane was orchid then thunder I loved it
Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷🙌
Ultra Ultra Ultra!!!
I miss those hard-core no Fuchs given 90s games. Blood, violence, hot women, cyborgs, alien's monsters. It was true freedom. It was the 90s.
Thoughts and opinions on tekken? I rarely hear u talk about tekken? I just found out that tekken's training system is patented the other day.
I wish Nintendo would atleast put the SNES version online!
What I remember at the time was how fast Killer Instinct sucked the wind out of Mortal Kombat 2’d sails… and even when MK3 came out a year later, it still didn’t distract people from KI.
I recall people on MK 2 and SF2 way more than KI. I wouldn't say took the wind from either mk or sf they already had established fanbases. Ki is essentially an amalgam of MK and SF more or less but not as popular as either of them tbh.
@Carlos Morales KI at best was a little distraction from MK and SF for a little while but not enough to really compete with either. Ki was big for like a year then died down. Even KI3 while it's a great game at first it just died.. MK X and SF 4 pretty much took the wind out of KI3.
Ki isn't bad but its simply not on the same level as MK. Marvel games were good in the later 90s though so was UMK3 and alpha series which were controversial some hated that series but also had a big fanbase too. Mvc slowed down but had hype for MVC3 which sadly died out fast compared to the success of MVC2.
Definitely made me less interested in MK, but didn't take SFs place.
@Billy Merritt The main reason why KI didn't do it for me much was because its a button masher compared to MK and SF which require far more skill, combo timing, harder inputs for certain moves etc. I did enjoy the roof top finisher though falling on a car wasn't nearly as cool as falling off the pit onto spikes. 😁
@@MKF30 Completely understandable. I think part of what drew me in was that I didn't have to take it as seriously as SF or KoF and but still satisfying the want to play a fighting game.
Yo commander urine! Sabrewulf was a character from ultimate play the game (rares original name) you can get the arcade set for killer instinct 1 and 2 running on the u64 emulator for PC too. Dont say I'm not good to you lol
AVAILABLE FOR YOUR HOME IN 1999 - ULTRAAAA-COMBOOOOO!
Really wish the arcade version was playable on Raspberry Pi 4 on Retropie
Lol, Captain Urine!! Solid game, just never got hooked like SF got me.
I still have the KI 💿
I remanber trying an pereless beta of the X-BOX 360 version of Killer Instinct at an Microsoft Store. I side man this is alot harder then Super Nintendo version I'm use to. One of it's programmers heard that and sind that was our intention.
What arcade in America were you talking about in the video
Killer Instinct started the combo system for fighting games, didn't it?
KI based the fighting around combos, no one else did it until after them, and games like MK3 and Tekken started to copy it.
I would argue that the simple stories of those old fighting games were much more entertaining than the needlessly convulted stories of today's games.
I'm an 80's arcade kid so KI is about a decade after my time, and it's nice to learn a bit about this title and see what all the fuss was about. Thanks!
how do we play these on Analogue Pocket??
Now if I can only find a working MAME version
I have really gone off games that require memorization of button presses, like this, Tekken, Tony Hawk's, etc. I can barely remember what I did yesterday, nevermind complex combos.
👍👍
2 is real good but I can't understand why anyone thought it was a good idea to remove the announcer announcing every combo. "Brutal Combo!" Are you kidding me?! The first game is so sick.
Glad I held off, but I was able to snag Arcade1Up's KI for 299 😃
Cool yes. Revolutionary no. Street Fighter 2 was a revolution for me. Art of Fighting was incredible as well.
Why is it not on swich
Sadly this is only on xbox one,the only way for us to play this and gold is with emulation wich is not good.
Too bad they screwed uo the 64 version, this game was killer on arcade and snes
You got those quarters from the assholes like me that threw away your $2 drink if didn't believe us when we said we'll throw it away if you set it down outside our gate. 🤣
Had KI1 and 2 in the arcade I worked between 96-00. I think we traded out KI1 tho sometime after KI2.
A friend had KI for the SNES and was great for what it was on. Owned KI Gold for the N64, having a 6 face button controller was good, much better than using the shoulder buttons for those he's that needed 6.
📱📱📱📱
then microsoft came in killed rare and butchered all its games like killer instinct and battletoads with garbage reboots and they are dead.
The new killer Instinct is awesome. I don't get how anyone would hate on it.
