yeah the definition for a fighting game was quite loose, given that even doom 2 advertised itself as one

@Yawackhary: Yeah, Ton corrected that just a few minutes after Cha05Punk19's comment.

@Cha05Punk19 Huh? It says Fighting as a Genre, probably already got fixed by a staff member.

A bit of a history lesson. Back in the olden days especially in the UK, fighting games and beat em ups were interchangeable hence the confusion. Many reviews of Street Fighter II when it came out actually do call it a "beat em up". Looking at Way of the Exploding Fist (one of the earliest fighting games along with Karate Champ), reviewers called it a "beat em up". Thinking about it, that game might have been the origins of the term... Renegade wasn't out yet and Kung-Fu Master (that is a beat em up) was just called a martial arts game at the time. Then again both genres were called "sports simulation", "karate simulation", "karate game", "martial arts simulation" or "martial arts games". Both fighting and beat em ups (outside of that WotEF Crash review) came in use later.

I think the splitting up of fighting games and beat em ups (aka the belt scrollers) outside of Japan happened on the Internet. After all there were plenty from both genres even before Street Fighter II. The mix up still happens but mainly old gamers as in 45+ and Spectrum Computing calls fighting games "Beat-em-up/Solo".

this really does just feel like a bootleg tbh, which is really funny when you consider not only was this ported from the original game code by capcom and nec, but that this was also one of the whopping Two launch titles for the CD addon and was meant to be a system seller
