Jackie Chan - The Kung-Fu Master (rev 4?)
Kaneko • 1995


Kaneko’s Jackie Chan - The Kung-Fu Master, released in 1995, is a two-player versus fighting game featuring digitized characters and a distinctive sense of humor. Players select from a roster of fighters to battle through stages, ultimately facing off against three different versions of Jackie Chan himself as bosses. Responsive controls allow for precise martial arts moves as you execute punches, kicks, and acrobatic maneuvers against your opponent. The game’s charm lies in its quirky presentation; expect unexpected video clips and amusing moments throughout gameplay. While the narrative is simple, the digitized graphics and unusual character designs create a unique visual style that sets it apart from other fighting games of the era. This relatively obscure title holds a surprising level of protection against unauthorized copying, making it an attractive find for collectors. Featuring a cast including Thorsten Nickel and Sam Wong, and produced with Jackie Chan’s involvement, this game offers a lighthearted martial arts experience brimming with personality. The technical specifications include Motorola 68000 CPUs and a Yamaha YMZ280B sound chip to power the visuals and audio.
