Shaq Fu SNES Title Music

[Aiiwolf]

This game was so bad, yet you couldnt put it down because of the music and Shaq fighting LOL

[Otouto72]

@Aiiwolf It's definately one of those really bad games you must play, same for Rise of the Robots, it's so bad you must buy it lol.

[RibNSpicY]

@Otouto72 I know its bad today but honestly me and a mate rented it from Blockbuster one saturday night in the mid 90's and played the fuck out of it all night. Although not so good as Street fighter 2 and MK it still werent too bad a game I say. Iv never played it then but im sure if I fire it up on the ZSNES emu now it will suck lol! Funny how we had more more tolerance for shit games when we were younger eh?

[TekkamanChronos]

Sure this game was bad BUT back then every kid liked it. To be honest I think alot of people really like this game, but because its so hated on the internet everyone is like Oh yeah this game is crap

>_>

<_<

[Otouto72]

@TekkamanChronos I think the Shaq license doesn't help matters even and just adds to the ridicule.

[genestarwindjf80]

didn't know Shaq can fight. thought he just play ball

[Otouto72]

@genestarwindjf80 Technically he can't fight, that's why this games tanked. =)

[genestarwindjf80]

@Otouto72 I know THIS GAME SUCKS

[TheJJStrife]

In THIS game, he can't fight. But in UFC 2010, he can kick ass. He's trained in MMA before, I believe.

[Otouto72]

@TheJJStrife You really wouldn't want to mess with Shaq in real life that's for damn sure. =)

[TheJJStrife]

And I forgot to mention Ready 2 Rumble Boxing Round 2 as well. So yeah. Unless it's this game, and unless you're Brock Lesnar or Afro Thunder, or something, you stand no chance against this guy in a fight.

[theextinction2330]

love this game, my childhood

[Otouto72]

@theextinction2330 Not a lot of people did like this game but I was certain it would have its fans and that's why I make these videos, to relive childhood memories =)

[guysmileyiv]

This game is worse than Mr. Coffee.

[Otouto72]

@guysmileyiv It's probably worse than anything you can come up with......well maybe Rise of the Robots was worse. =)

[stingernitro]

hehe i wish i would have known this one was already uploaded. i have the game soundtrack and just posted it up. damn, but um if you want i can upload the rest of the soundtrack to videos.

[Otouto72]

@stingernitro I personally don't mind if any of my videos are uploaded again by someone else. In the end my channel shows a vast vareity of music which I post regardless of personal opinion, there was no other reason I uploaded the soundtrack to this game other than "I wanted to". Wasn't that the reason you uploaded the soundtrack on your channel? I really appreciate you coming to me about it and I am more than happy to state that I don't mind you posting up the soundtrack on your channel =)

[stingernitro]

@Otouto72 well thanx i appreciate that. i just know many would have had a problem with it. but thanx. yea the main reason was because i had the song on file along with other tracks i had got from snesmusic that i figured i would make videos for, especially knowing hey many others would have liked the track as well hehe. but thanx again :)

[Otouto72]

@stingernitro Yeah some people have a problem with it and that's why I try to avoid uploading popular tunes on my channel like Duck Tales and Tetris and Revenge of Shinobi because frankly some people can be right assholes about it, they act like they own the music. But I personally don't have a problem with it, others uploaded this before I did so I know how it feels when you discover someone else had it up already.

[stingernitro]

@Otouto72 yea trust me i know hehe, it happens lol. but i had one case happen to me where i had uploaded a video and saw it somewhere else on here. at first i was like cool someone else found the song too, but the sad thing, they had somehow copied my video and paste it as theirs, and i always trademark any video i post up at the end of it hehe except for a few. i mean im glad he liked the video, but to copy it haha, i laughed. but i know what you mean. :)

[kiaba360]

The music in this game was tough, too bad the controls weren't

[Otouto72]

@kiaba360 Yeah this game a pretty bad.

[TheLastStand001]

poop

[Otouto72]

@TheLastStand001 Yeah stinks really bad doesn't it.

[guysmileyiv]

@TheLastStand001 Yep, this game is poop-poop.

[Otouto72]

@guysmileyiv Nah Poop's actually nicer than this game, so are sewer rats for that matter. Yuck what a mess of a game.

[tyrannosurusrex]

me and shaq rap over this all the time

[Otouto72]

@tyrannosurusrex You rap to this? Willing to showcase your work? I am no rap fan at all but I honestly would not mind seeing anyone do a rap to this =)

[Eggbomber101]

Hate the game but love the music

[Otouto72]

It sucked didn't it :)

[givmespace]

the megadrive version had better music

[Otouto72]

I've been stating for yonks that I would upload the genesis music but with my illness I never got round to it. Now that I'm back, I'll clear out my archive and finally get round to this.

[givmespace]

are would you?, that would be cool. i cant imagine a worse fighting game then this one though.lol 

but.. nazu was cool i think, i loved his vortex fireball and other random attacks.....come to think of it, this game wasnt bad at all..

[Retro1Gamer]

Shaq-Fu (Super Nintendo) Graphics: 9/10 Sound: 7/10 Game play: 7/10 Fun Factor: 7/10 Overall: 30/40 (7.5/10) Shaq-Fu (Mega Drive/Genesis) Graphics: 9/10 Sound: 6/10 Game play: 7/10 Fun Factor: 8/10 Overall: 30/40 (7.5/10)

[Otouto72]

Very kind with the scores. At least it does have its fans :)

[Retro1Gamer]

Thanks. This game should NOT be one of the worst games of all time. Most people insult this game with half truths and they over exaggerate the controls. One of the positive aspects about this game is that the developers use a technique called rotoscoping for the in game animation. It is where you record the charater doing an attack then you draw over the animation. They did this so that the animation looked very realistic. The music is very well done. The sprites are large and animate very well.

[Otouto72]

There were plenty of games worse off than this, Bebe's Kids being one for instance, but I think it's considered a big turkey within the video game industry because of Shaq himself. Chaos in the Windy City got the same treatment because of Michael Jordan and I quite enjoyed that game!

[Retro1Gamer]

Shaq Fu and Michael Jordon Chaos in the Windy City are very good games. They do star NBA legends, but that isn't what makes the games cool. It's the graphics, sound, and game play that make the games enjoyable. Bebe's Kids is a terrible game.

[Otouto72]

I'll be honest I didn't enjoy Shaq Fu but there are definately far worse games than this one. Chaos in the Windy City was an enjoyable game, one of the first I actually played for the SNES, wasn't brilliant but definately enjoyable.

[Bayc0n]

I agree 100%, I played it on the megadrive though.

[Retro1Gamer]

Comment Response to Bayc0n

Who are your 3 favorite characters in Shaq Fu? (All versions)

1. Mephis

2. Sett Ra

3. Shaquille O'Neal

[Bayc0n]

In response to Retro1Gamer:

1. Shaq (he takes no shit from anyone, not even interdimensional cyborg apes)

2. Leotsu (I really like his moveset, even if he is overpowered)

3. Colonel (aforementioned cyborg ape just happens to be really cool.)

[Stallowned]

This game should be put in the national archives as a timeless piece of our culture

[bearclawkev]

like the music........ i think they made it for the music....... not to let good music go to waste....

[mdot012]

i don't care what noboby says...this is one of the greatest games ever...lol not really but i liked it...if my snes still worked i'd probably still play it...

[Godzillaman]

We all have our opinions. I would have enjoyed this game if the combos weren't so hard. I kinda' like it.

[InuMiroLover]

genesis version was better

[Otouto72]

I never played the Mega Drive/Genesis version but I should download the rom and check it out for myself.

[InuMiroLover]

i somewhat enjoyed myself with this game. i didnt care for the snes version as much as i did for the genesis version. it was personal taste really. I rather liked the opening theme for this game on the genesis. The snes version was just....weird

[tecmo1]

OMGG IT WAS WAAAY BETTER! snes sux

[HadoukenMaster1]

Not by much?

[abellang]

everybody was shaq fu fighting.

[Vf5rules]

Haha what a classic.
