Fighter's History Dynamite (Saturn) Playthrough - NintendoComplete

A playthrough of Sega's 1997 versus-fighting game for the Sega Saturn, Fighter's History Dynamite.

The game only ever got a Japanese-market release, but it can be switched into English by changing the game from Japan to Overseas version in the options menu

Played through with Mizoguchi on the normal difficulty level. I also fight the secret boss at the end... odd as it may be.

Fighter's History Dynamite (or Karnov's Revenge, depending on the region of the game) was a good Neo Geo follow-up to one of my favorite SF-clone style fighters. I had this game on the Neo Geo CD for years and played it constantly, and with the RAM cart, the Saturn version is just as good - better, if you take into account how much the loading time was slashed by.

The game is overall a pretty standard mid-90s arcade 2D fighter. It flows well (though I would've preferred they slowed it down just a bit - it's good that they sped it up from the original, but I think it was just a bit too much), it looks pretty good, the ridiculous voices are still ridiculous, and seriously, the game that ends with a hidden last boss like this one deserves at least a raised eye brow or two.

And for the record, I believe that Mizoguchi's death scream has to be one of the best video game sounds ever. Probably not too different from the sound Karnov made during his C-section.
