When's Melty on Steam?
ahaha that's no--wait, what?

Today I got asked about my first encounter with fighting games. It made me think, so I thought I'd share (OMG SHAREFAG).
My first encounter with arcade FG - and my dad loves to tell this story - was me kicking some guy's ass at Mortal Kombat when it was new. I was so small I had to stand on a stepping stool to reach the controls. This guy was raping everybody, 50 win streak or so, at a mall arcade. Time Out kind of thing. Dad and I waited in line, he held my hand and all. I remember this very clearly because there was a KB Toys across the way where my grandpa went to buy a Supersoaker. I remember watching him go into the store while waiting in line (that's how long the line was, coming out of the arcade about 20 people deep). I get there, finally, hop up on a stool, and body the dude. I think was 7 or so? Stay free, America.
What was your first fighting game? Any interesting experiences?
-
The first that I remember was MvC and I played Iron man/Shuma like a scrub.
-
Street Fighter 2 on SNES. Still the only console I ever owned. And will ever own. Though that game sucks as hell from a recent point of view.
-
One Must Fall 2097, best game ever.
-

This x infinity.
My first non-arcade FG is kinda blurry. I can't remember if it was OMF or SF2. I definitely played a lot of both. EC as well, but that was hell without a 6 button pad. Sup pressing start to switch between punch and kick.
I still play OMF to this day. I still find my favourite 'bot to be Shadow with the ice mod, but Gargoyle could do some crazy shit (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiWJtcVfA0Y).
-
Double Dragon.
As in, mode b of the original Double Dragon, not the spinoff fighters. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w20incys4tg)
Other than that, I guess getting absolutely destroyed by a friend at some version of SF2 on SNES when I had no concept of how fighting games worked. What a dick.
-
SFII on SNES as well, and then years of family&friend Alpha 2/3 and Mahvel 1. Though it wasn't until MBR/MBAC that I started playing competitively. :toot:
-
Karate Champ - NES
-
KOF '98, in 1999 when I was in vacations on São João de Meriti, Brazil. It was a PS1 inside from an arcade cabinet.
I've really began to dedicate in F-games in 2004, playing a KOF '98 arcade in a bar (Bar do Tião) near to my house, and not using the "special shortcuts" (L1, L2, R1, R2 from SPECIAL config mode) anymore when I was praticing in PS1.
-
I started off playing SFII on SNES. After that it was just different Tekken games as they came out and DoA3/DoA4.
-
Marvel super heroes, and tekken 2
-
SF2 for the SNES, all i could do was sonic booms back then.
-
sf 2 hyperfighting on snes. The next was fatal fury 2 in a arcade (it really taked my money in that time ;_;)
-
ninja turtle tournament on NES
-
Mortal Kombat II bitches.
-
SFII CE on Genesis. With a three button controller. I could switch fast enough to handle top difficulty, not that the AI was much to talk about for that one.

Is this first serious fighting game or first fighting game? I think most people in my generation mashed streetfighter (or if they were cool, PowerStone) when they were younger. But first time I bothered to seriously learn the mechanics? - Melty Blood. Deal with it.
Fun fact: The first character I saw being played was Kohaku. I thought the game was dumb, hated fighting games, and even when I picked up the game as an "exception" to my rules disliking the fighting game genre, I probably liked Kohaku the least out of the entire cast. Atleast half a decade ago, Melty Blood was my first experience with Type Moon. I had a passing interest in anime and the like, but I wasn't at the level anyone would call an otaku. I disliked people who were "too into" anime.
-
smash bros 64. yes it is still, technically, a fighting game.
-
SF2 World Warrior at the local grocery store. Played it once and didn't touch SF2 till Hyper Fighting on the SNES.
-
Super Street Fighter 2 for Genesis.
My first ARCADE experience was whooping my friend's ass at Marvel vs Capcom.
Ahh...those were the days.
-
My first fighting game was SF2 for SNES. First time I ever played a fighter in an arcade was Marvel vs Capcom in like mid-late middle school I think? First fighting game that got me interested in learning and playing above scrub level was Guilty Gear XX. First time I played in a tournament was in Evo 07, Melty side tourney.
-
I mean sure SF2 was my first game, but Marvel vs Capcom 2 are where my roots are at, haha.
-
smash bros 64. yes it is still, technically, a fighting game.
Get out. :psyduck:
-
Like many others, my first experience with fighters was SF2 on the SNES and I was like 4 or 5 at the time. Believe it or not, I learned how to do a hurricane kick before a fireball. I just couldn't understand why I couldn't get fireballs to work and nobody bothered to show me what I was doing wrong. After I dunno how many tries, eventually I got this bright idea of reversing the hurricane kick motion and pressing the buttons that were located above the kick buttons. Lo and behold I learned how to fireball. It was one of the greatest (and most embarrassing) experiences I've had with fighters. :slowpoke:
-
SF2 on the genesis. Used to play that with my dad very often.
-
SF2 for me too, strange how the majority of peoples first fighting game was SF2 :mystery:
-
SF2 for me too, strange how the majority of peoples first fighting game was SF2 :mystery:
It's not strange at all. The game was insanely popular, revolutionalized fighting games period, came out right when consoles were getting really mainstream... etc, etc etc

Then the question of which version of SF2 did people play first comes up, or is that too technical? lol
-
Jurrassic Park Warpath, wasn't really into fighting games back then, but what kid could possibly resisist the opportunity to beat the crap out of a T-rex with a Raptor whilst snacking on humans or smashing one into an electric fence? :toot:
(Actualy what adult can? Want to go search it out again now) :prinny:
-
I think the first fighting game I got SERIOUS about was Soul Calibur 2.
Laugh it up niggas.
I was a beast with Link and im still an absolute monster with Lizardman, Maxi, and Kilik.
And I think im gonna go back and start playing Guilty Gear XX again.
I miss me some Axl.
-
Well, I only remember seeing SF2 once or twice in an arcade, never played it before. I did not like fighting games too much when I was little. (mostly because some random high school/college student would always RAEP me without mercy)
First games that I played and enjoyed were Super Smash Bros was Tekken 3 and, later, Tekken Tag Tournament.
First 2D game was KoF 1998 or 2000 (can't remember exactly). I sucked at it big time. First 2D game I liked was Melty Blood Act Cadenza :toot:
-
Street Fighter II: Special Champion Edition on Sega Genesis. My older sister used to kick my ass with E. Honda's Hundred Hand Slap because she could mash the button fast enough and I couldn't.
To be fair, I was about eight and she was fourteen.

This reminds me of the trouble I had attempting to mash fierce/roundhouse (honda/chun) to get the fast version to come out when I was a kid. I could do light and medium versions fine enough, but couldn't ever manage to do the heavy version. Later I felt like a genius when I realized I could mash light+heavy or mid+heavy together and somehow still get the heavy one.
I also remember reading input instructions on some game or another (MK2? SF2? One of my earlier ones, I dunno) and seeing "Down, Down/Forward, Forward, Punch" as attack notation and confusedly trying to press 2266P. lol, made me so frustrated until I realized Down/Forward meant diagonal.
-
I can't remember what my first fighting game was. It was either Mortal Kombat on the PC (I got one of those multiple games-in-1 CDs with it on there) Battle Arena Toshinden for the Gameboy, or KoF 96 for the gameboy
-
My absolute very first FG was this lame-ass Power Rangers game in a bundle of emulated games from the SNES. I played some other fighters in there too. Ah, my childhood...
But Melty was my first serious fighter. The first original Melty Blood. Then shifted to ReAct, Act Cadenza then Actress Again.
-
Primal Rage. Actually on some old ass PC I used to own when I was like, six.
-
SF2.
Used to play this at a 7-11 and laundromat lol
But I had to use a fucking stool to be able to see the screen :emo:
Couldn't do Hadoukens for shit on pad, made my thumbs hurt.
-

Lame? This was absolutely epic, and still is. Just look at the music, it's EPIC! Also, only 2D fighter I knew that can hit opponents when they are knocked down. 2A+B all day!
-
The first fighting game that I've ever played was Clay Fighter. :toot:

Wonder if we're talking about the same game. It's the one where you can select the giant robots, not the rangers. Story mode involves choosing either the classic dinosaurs version or the white tiger one, beating the crap out of the other versions and finally fighting Ivan Ooze. I was really a little kid when I played it so I had no clue what to do. I still have it in fact. Should try it out one day...
-
Yes, I'm talking about that one, too. And I still have that game module for SNES as well.
In MAX mode, the super move was something like 623623623B, one of a hell flashy fullscreen laz0r beam.
-
Damn, now I feel like completing my childhood and actually comboing in that game! XD
-
I vaguely remember that game. I only remember that there were a lot of cool zords to play and that it was really hard to randomly mash out the cool moves. =<
What was the actual title?
-
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Fighting Edition so it seems.
-
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers - The Fighting Edition.
IIRC only one character was able to do advanced combos, and that was Zedd. Maybe Ninja Megazord, too.
This game is basically New Mobile Gundam Wing: Endless Duel, only with Zords instead of Gundams. Even the same engine.
-
Just checked some vids online. Lip Syncher could do dustloops too.
-
Everyone of you should give Super Cosplay Wars Genkai Toppa a shot. It's a poverty fighter, no less - but it's surprisingly addictive.
-
I imagine 90% of people will say SF2 (given that they're old enough), same with me. I didn't play competitively until Reload though.

That should be the question, imo. What was your fighting game that you were serious about, and starting studying to win?
Myself, the first fighting game I played I actually don't know. It was this game where you played either a white guy who street fights, or some asian dude who uses karate. Anybody know it? Came out when I was a kid, so maybe...early to mid nineties?
-
lol the Power Rangers Fighting game? For those who haven't seen it or don't know much about it, then you need to see the following:

Sounds like Pit Fighter. lol
I still have the SNES cartridge for that.
-
first fg I remember was either Mortal Kombat on the Genesis or a 2D PC game with ancient chinese warriors, made by panda soft or something. Anyone have any idea what the hell game that would be? Kinda itching to give it another whirl but it's probably been 14 years since I played it.
Whoa, that actually looks rly cool.
:V :V :V :V lmao clearly you skipped the part where ivan ooze shows up
-

Ivan Ooze da gawd. Cancel out of hitstun into a move with like 30 inv frames. lol

...Let me get this straight. You forgot the name a fighting game... that was based on Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers... and so likely would have "Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers" somewhere in its title...?
And I thought MY memory was shit.

So you're seeking out Rule 34 of Sango Fighter?
...The sad fact is, it exists. No exceptions. And if not, Rule 35 can be invoked.

No, it was more of a 2D pixelated game. I can't remember it for the life of me...
I still have the SNES cartridge for that.

D: lol yea I didnt watch the second vid.
wtf...thats fuggin ridiculous.
Teh game designers made a troll character.
It wouldnt be so bad if they didnt make him playable.
Shits ridiculous.

As i said, i totally forgot the title, and i only knew that it was based on "Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers". Its only after seeing the first stage against minotaur confirmed that it was the game i played waaay back like.... i'm not even sure, probably sometime when i first started school.

You still had more than enough info to look it up on Mobygames, man. :P

That kinda narrowed it down to... oh, 3 titles, one of which isn't related, and one of which is a catch-all for the series across various platforms.
Thus, the third = your game = a winner is you! :P
-
Street Fighter 1. To bad nothing worked and my guy just jumped up and back forever
-
Hrmm, I think it would've been Gundam Wing: Endless Duel. Mashing with Gundams was kinda cool in its own way, specially when huge ass lasers randomly came out.
Then it was MUGEN. OTL
and then I learned better and now it's Melty.
-
lol Mugen. Reminds me of the Chip Zanuff ass simple intstant kill move.
Why is there no Arihiko MUGEN character? This would so make me wanna play that again.
-
If I remember right I was mashing on SF2 CE with blanka when I was a little kid. Only time I started to really play was like a week before SSF4 came out. Although SF is boring to me now.
-

Do not insinuate Persona 3 and MUGEN in the same sentence. That's like saying AIDS is awesome.

Pretty much the same deal with me. The first game I took seriously enough to go to tourneys and try to get better was probably SSBM.
-
I was my older brother's moving test dummy for SF2 on the SNES. :emo:
Then I started to play fighting games more seriously when I really wanted to beat him down specifically in Tekken 3 and CvS2. The latter got me into the fighting game scene and I still play it to this day.
-
just find this interview
真鍋 ：始めてプレイした格闘ゲームは？
ＧＯ１：子供の頃に遊んだ「ストリートファイター２」（スーパーファミコン）です。エドモンド本田を使って、必死に
ボタン連打したんですが、どうーしてもバルログが倒せませんでした。
-
The goggles! They do nothing for those of us not so good at moonspeak!
Past telling it's Street Fighter 2 for the Super Famicom, anyway.
-
There is video evidence of me playing Street Fighter 2 back when I was like 3. I have no actual memory of doing so--my parents hid it away because they thought it'd make me violent.
I'd sort of get back into FTG with Smash Bros. + Melee, but that doesn't count.
So really, my first fighting game is actually like... really late with Guilty Gear XX #Reload (Xbox) and Melty Blood Re-Act Final Tuned shortly after, probably.
-
My First battle game was Elementary school Bullying (I was the bad guy *chinkface*)
(SFII for the SNES)
-
After some careful trawling of memories, I've managed to narrow it down to either Street Fighter II or Mortal Kombat for the Amiga, though I was so young at the time as for it to barely count. Last time I played either of those was a good 13 or 14 years back, followed by a complete dearth of any fighting games till a few months ago when a friend introduced me to MB.
Got fond memories from those days, though the Megadrive controllers we used to play (As they shared the same port type as the Amiga) were war from ideal. Better than they keyboard, at any rate.

^ I swear I could hear ur voice while reading this. Particularly after the word "trawling". ^
That aside, S2 strikes again. I never liked MK cuz I was like 9 wen I started getting into MK4. If u can call "scrubbing around" the same as "getting into" it.
-
SF2 for SNES.
First Fighting Game

I'm one of the many that started with Street Fighter 2 as their first fighting game, but, I've been more of Mortal Kombat than SF (especially the old school MK).
