Final Fight (Japanese:
ファイナルファイト?) is a side-scrolling beat-'em-up game originally released by
Capcom as a coin-operated video game in 1989. It was the seventh game
released by Capcom for their CP System arcade game hardware. The player
takes control of one of three vigilantes who must rescue a kidnapped
young woman from a ruthless street gang.
The
game was originally conceived as a sequel to the original Street
Fighter titled Street Fighter '89, but the title was changed before its
release when the game's genre changed from a one-on-one competitive
fighting game to a side-scrolling action game. Final Fightwas ported to
various platforms, such as the Super NES and Mega-CD, since its original
coin-op release.
Final
Fight was followed by a series of sequels that were produced primarily
for the home console market, and some of the game's characters would
reappear in later Street Fighter games.
Plot:
Chronologically set during the time of the original Street Fighter, Final Fight is set in the fictional American metropolis of Metro City, based on New York City. A former professional wrestler named Mike Haggar is
elected as the new Mayor of the city, promising to handle the city's
criminal problem in his campaign. The Mad Gear gang, the dominant
criminal organization of the city, plots to bring Haggar under their
control by kidnapping his daughter Jessica and using her as leverage
against him. Enlisting the help of Cody, Jessica's boyfriend and a Martial Arts master himself, as well as Cody's sparring partner, a ninjutsu master named Guy, Haggar opts to fight the gang instead in order to save his daughter.
GamePlay:
Final Fight can
be played by up to two players simultaneously, with each player
controlling a different character. Before the game begins, the player
chooses between the three main characters, Guy, Cody, and Haggar, each
with his own fighting style and attributes. Guy is the weakest but has
faster attacks, Haggar is the strongest but also the slowest, and Cody
has all-round attributes.
The
controls consists of an eight-way joystick and two buttons for
attacking and jumping. The player character can move in any of the eight
directions, but can only face and attack to the left or right like in
most beat-'em-ups. Pressing both buttons simultaneously performs a
special move that attacks in both directions, though uses a little
vitality. Players can also grab and throw opponents, as well as use
various weapons such as knives, pipes, and swords.
Levels:
Final Fight consists
of six stages or "rounds", as well as two bonus rounds. Each round
takes place in a different section of Metro City such as the Slums and
the Subway, with most rounds featuring more than one level. At the end
of each round the player will face a boss characterunique to that round.
