God I was good at this game....take .50 cent to the arcade and spend hours in there playin this.....wish I had all the quarters back I spent learning it though! lol
Data East's largest objection in court with Capcom (USA?) mentioned this arcade game as the true originator of the genre. Even though Taito's Gun Fight, Sega's Heavyweight Champ, Vectorbeam's Warrior and Phantom Software's Attack of the Phantom Karate Devil came out earlier, while some others also came out in 1984, they weren't as successful as Karate Champ.
And its developer, Technos Japan, was founded by former Data East employees, who then supported Data East before becoming independent.
ever since i saw this in the Bloodsport movie back in 2006 i been searching for it in the arcades and finally found it last year at a nickle arcade, i have the rom in my portable game emulator but i wanted to try the arcade and it was epic
I used to play this game often during the first year it was out. The "smack" sound was killer (for the era). We used to taunt each other with that..."How about that smack down, Joe!?" and so on.
十字レバーが2つだけの変わったゲームだったな。
