This was badass too see this in the arcade for the first time. Music gets you right away. It was one of the best sounding and looking games in the arcade.
Killer Instinct is one of the greatest fighting game series of all time. I remember all the arcades of the 1990s, everyone was playing Killer instinct. There was such a long line to play the game. People had their coins line up in order along the machine. Every day when it was lunchtime, everybody went to a local game rental place that had Killer Instinct.
This was my childhood. We spent countless hours on SNES version. Mastered it. I used to play at the arcade but couldn't afford too much as we were not the wealthiest. ... But I remember there was this Little Chinese kid that was maybe ten and was unbeatable at the arcade. Good times.
@@a.s.cirillo6785 I played this game 1994 as teen in the arcades in Belgium ... (as well as Street Fighter 2&3, Mortal Kombat 1-3) Killer Instinct blew us away in the arcades. We eagerly waited for a home port on the "Ultra 64"... well at least we got KI Gold on the N64! ;)
Hell yeah, my country wasn’t that great but we had a crazy arcade somehow.. KI street fighter samurai shodown marvel vs capcom eventually and metal slug were always crowded
Bloody Roar, Clay Fighter, Eternal Champions, Tobal No# 1, Virtua Fighter, Star Gladiators, Battle Arena Toshendin , Dark Stalkers, World Hero's, Samurai Showdown, Bushido Blade, Fatal Fury, king of fighters, Ninga Turtles fighting games, Fighting Vipers and Breakers. The list goes on
Biggest ones I remember in the early and mid 90s were Street Fighter 2, Mortal Kombat, Killer Instinct, Fatal Fury, Virtua Fighter, Tekken, and Samurai Showdown. Maybe even World Heroes and Art of Fighting
Many of Nintendo haters forgot that THIS is a Nintendo game. The Port for SNES was awesome. The new generations have no idea of the greatest past of videogames.
I remember seeing it in the arcades and being impressed with it. I played a few rounds but I was overwhelmed by all the COMBOS! it had a memorable aesthetic and style, I just never put in the time to master it, having spent so many quarters already on the mortal kombat and street fighter games... ah well. still impressive to this day, a slice of gaming history
The nostalgia.. I remember walking in to an arcade and hearing the volumes all pumping full blast, but being able to clearly distinguish the sounds of KI, NBA Jam, and MK over all the rest. I can honestly say I got my ass whooped anytime I put my quarter up on the screen to reserve my turn on the stick.
Don’t forget about Primal Rage in that mix. Ahhh, such great times! But yeah, I remember my local arcade having this game so loud, with the subwoofers as well, you could hear it before you even entered the arcade!
Yeah the arcade cabinet was deliberately louder than any other before it. It was intentional and it worked. The sound and music was brilliant and it blew everything else away. I have the same memories.
I remember when I first saw this cabinet in the arcade. It lured people to it with its presentation and really hyped up the Ultra 64 which ultimately became the Nintendo 64 that never lived up to the arcade version. Was so awesome though.
I remember playing this all the time with my dad n brother on snes growing up, everything from the soundtrack to the characters brings back so much nostalgia. This game is truly underrated.
@dr.o 6666 you can do it whenever. Quarter turn forward + medium or quick punch. The howl makes your combo linker easier for 1 combo but nice try. You have no idea what your talking about.
I didn't know he had it in KI1. I mastered the back half circle-forward punch fireball in Gold/KI2. I learned something new today after all these years.
The kids of today need to understand what put Killer Instinct on a whole different level from other games at the time. Kids now will never know what it was like to walk into an arcade and hear this game going at full volume with incredible sound and bass, and be blown away by not only how the game looked but how the game played with crazy combos. It was the first of its kind. It was the birth of combo fighting in fighting games afterwards. Not as crazy as this, but their own way of combos you see in video games today. The music of KI was simply amazing. The graphics of KI blew everyone away compared to the other games of the time, only because of the brilliant way of making the characters -- 3D characters turned into 2D sprites lol. The crisp sharp look of the "3D CGI characters turned 2D" was nothing like any other game at the time. During this time they had 3D fighting games like Virtua Fighter that had such jagged edges and slow movements because they were true 3D. But with Rare's Killer Instinct "faking" 3D, it took the graphical look of this fighting game to a whole new level at the time. It set itself apart from every other fighting game on the market, and set a new precedent of what to expect from fighting games! It was so amazing! PS -- Sabrewulf was my main =)
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and life stories about this game. Currently, I am 18 and I respect old games because of charm and effort that was put there. This one is gem of fighting game industry and will forever remain unforgettable in the eyes of majority. Been thinking lately of working as programmer, however I am not very keen in computer science, I hope someday someone will create a game everyone will enjoy that sticks out with the KI
The best arcade game of my existence. I used to love kicking peoples asses with Fulgore, Glacius, Combo, and Thunder. The days of guys putting quarters up were so fantastic and I’ll never forget how epic a place the arcade was to hang with buddies.
I remember this being the first video game I ever played at age 4. My parents brought me the SNES bundle that came with this game and the soundtrack! So many good memories!
I´ve never had a SNES, neither was good at this game at arcades, but I liked to watch the good players doing these Ultra combo. And a friend of mine gave me his Killer Instinct cd soundtrack to play it at home, it was the very first CD that I played at home and I play it a lot. I still have it.
I remember playing this every day at a caravan site called warren farm, Somerset. Every summer when my mum and dad were at the caravan for the evening I would take my pocket money and run across 3 fields just to get to the kids playhouse. This was one of the only arcade games in there and you’d be lucky to get on it, we used to do a winner stays on and the older kids who played it more would always win, 25/26 years on and the music, sound effects and graphics still seem exactly as I remember! I can feel my heart pounding with excitement while watching this video and all the nostalgia comes flying back. Running nearly a mile with a couple pound to play a arcade game sounds crazy but was well worth it
I love this game. I’m only 15 years old so I never experienced this version until my 27 yr old cousin introduced it to me. It’s been my favourite fighting game along with smash ever since
killer instinct will always and still be one of greatest games ever it would be cool if they ever bring the liveaction of the movie out that would be cool.
When I was younger I wanted to start a burger place that had all the combos based on ki combos... and every time someone got their order made when the combo was finished the whole kitchen yelled out the combos
I remember going to the arcade in Birmingham to play and watch others play this game. The volume was always turned up to attract those around who were playing outrun and pacman and virtual fighter. Even street fighter was being ignored when the good players were clocking up the credits. Peace ✌️ out people
What I used to love the most were the animated vs screen and supreme victory screens. It was just so cool to me. I hated when people at the arcade would skip it
One of the best SNES games I've ever played. I remember putting countless hours of gameplay with my brothers, learning every characters fatalities. The good ol' 90's
@@TrollGeezus in magazines that was the only way.go in Winn Dixie to there magazine rack look to the back of a mag killer instinct fatalities mk fatalities problem solved
At the time this was mindbowing. I remember watching this game in the arcade hall and i was in awe. Way ahead of it's time, in graphics, music, gameplay, everything.
I remember going to the arcade in the 90s and this one guy was unbeatable in this game. Crowds would gather around to watch him play and lines of people would challenge him, but no one could ever beat him. He would pull the most insane combo's.
One of the best fighting games. Sick combo system, cool environments, dope characters, awesome soundtrack. I was sad when I bought it on snes when I was a kid and the port was meh but it was still KI and I still went to the arcade to play the ultraaaaaaa version lol.
@@razielette2159 right, I had the SNES version and it plays so fast. Sure the CGI is gone but the gameplay was probably the best out of all the fighters that got a port

Outside of MK 1 and 2 (when they were new) no other machine had more HYPE than Killer Instinct. That feeling when you finally got your turn and had a huge audience, kids today really missed out on arcades.
@@ryansteele2111 I played this game 1994 as 16yo as teen in the arcades in Belgium (as well as Street Fighter 2 & 3, Mortal Kombat 1-3) Killer Instinct blew us away in the arcades.
Street Fighter II had 3 and 5 hit combos before KI. KI's combos system is almost the same as SF except KI let's you extend combos thru linkers. I love both games , it's MK I do not like.
Ahh, Saberwolf. My personal favorite character in Killer Instinct. Simplistic commands that require almost no real indepth training to master. Saberwolf was the only character I could use and pull off "Godlike" combos. When I played against my friend we did something that was never mentioned. There are combos and combo breakers, and my friend and I discovered one hidden aspect. Counter breakers. Which occurs when u combo break a combo breaker. When performed, u can continue your combo as if the combo breaker never happened, AND future combo breakers can not be preformed for rest of that combo.
Increíble que hasta la intro del juego haya dejado el siguiente mensaje de que el Juego llegaría a Nintendo 64, en 1995 Promesa que nunca se cumplió. Pero en su lugar llegó un Port muy bueno a la Snes. Buena forma de Despedir el ciclo de vida del SNES. Igualmente la colaboración entre Nintendo y Rare creo una de las primeras arcades en utilizar un disco Duro IDE como medio de almacenamiento para el juego. Y usando de base el Hardware de la próxima en aununciarse Nintendo 64. Sin duda muy buen Trabajo Colaborativo.
Freaking nostalgia man gives me the chills. It’s sad to know that kids from this era never got to experience such greatness. These are times when violence wasn’t such a thing and games were actually put well together. Wait my kids could get to experience this game I own it on my Xbox one lol. G2G
I remember when I first saw this in Arcades when I was 10. I was so mesmerized with the graphics and couldn't wait for a console port. While the SNES version didn't stack up graphically, they still managed to accurately port the addictive gameplay.
Absolutely fantastic fighting game This brings back all the memories of my time spent dumping quarters into this machine with utter joy literally standing in line to play Then destroying people with Chief Thunder. Oh how I miss my high school days MASTERPIECE👊🏽💯
I used to main Sinder. He had the ability to basically air juggle infinitely if you set up the right combos. I think I remember getting a 108 hit combo air juggling with him before I got tired and just let the combo end. I never ever played another fighter game I had even the slightest skill in, but this game was something special…
Этому видео 8 лет! А я до сих пор восхищаюсь этой игрой, правда ностальгирую не по этой версии а на обычной нинтендо. Нравилось Оркид и Гласиусом играть. Самый сложный по комбам был Джаго) Сейчас бы приставку нинтендо купить с этой игрой)
SUPREME KI! Sabrewulf my #1 fighter. I use the narrator's saying "SABREWULF"! as my alarm. When that sound calls, it's time to rise and kick ass another day!
Lo mismo sentí yo mi amigo. Yo te 28 y me tocó jugar ésto por ahí del 2004/2005 todos los días, no se diga en las vacaciones😢. Ayer por casualidad me apareció en facebook y no pude evitar sentir emociones. Bien dicen que recordar es revivir. Saludos! 👍
I feel grateful to have experienced this game growing up!
Me to
Grateful wasn't a word back then for us, and today it is!
You could e got it on Xbox one at the time, now I don't think it's for sale anymore. At least there's MAME.
Spent hours a day at the arcade playing this lol well on the weekends lol
Fock yeah man Fock yeah
I just got Goosebumps watching this.. God i miss my Childhood. 😌
i was playing a lot of marvel vs capcom at the arcades
Mane I miss the 90s games
This was badass too see this in the arcade for the first time. Music gets you right away. It was one of the best sounding and looking games in the arcade.
Good news. You can play them for free
repent to God
A moment of silence for those kids who didn't have a good childhood 😔
Luckily I'm not one of those peaple my childhood was awesome.
thats good.
Saber wolf always been my favorite character
.....
Super lobo
That intro Music and the voice of the announcer is insane!
Same here freaking cool
The best intro!
Gave me chills so bad
Brings back memories when stepping into that dark arcade room hearing all the demos play from other arcade cabinets..
The best music for when you are having sex!

@@wikkiddeathlord7372 mk is beyond overrated to me. Horrible graphics, horrible storyline and character development
This is so true! They did have their quarters lined up on the machine. I remember that now...
I was just thinking about the same thing I remember it exactly as you explained
here you go again with the hyperbole nonsense.
This was my childhood. We spent countless hours on SNES version. Mastered it. I used to play at the arcade but couldn't afford too much as we were not the wealthiest. ... But I remember there was this Little Chinese kid that was maybe ten and was unbeatable at the arcade. Good times.

dude the iconic CCCCCCOMBO BRAKER
I'm surprised it's not in a song
better than the updated garbage version.
Up there with Unreal Tournament's M-M-M-Monster Kill.

This game had one of the best intro’s ever the voice is what makes this game killer
The '90's were a great time for fighters. We had SF2, MK, and KI -- each with it's own distinct control feel and graphic design.
Tekken 3, Soul Calibur too.

Yes don't leave out all the marvel fighting games like marvel super heroes
Bloody Roar, Clay Fighter, Eternal Champions, Tobal No# 1, Virtua Fighter, Star Gladiators, Battle Arena Toshendin , Dark Stalkers, World Hero's, Samurai Showdown, Bushido Blade, Fatal Fury, king of fighters, Ninga Turtles fighting games, Fighting Vipers and Breakers. The list goes on

It is especially with the music in the background 🥴

Right 😂
Killer Instinct will always be one of those nostalgic video games that had one of the greatest video game soundtracks of all-time 💯
And best combo system of all fighting games
Yes. The preflight music almost sounded like you’re going into battle….great effing game.
Sound, graphics, controls PERFECT!!
For some reason they cannot make the sound effects that the 1995 had this new version of killer instinct 2019 really sucks
The graphics were ahead of it's time
Many of Nintendo haters forgot that THIS is a Nintendo game. The Port for SNES was awesome. The new generations have no idea of the greatest past of videogames.
I think Nintendo lovers also forgot that
+Sucette06 it's true... Most of new nintendo lovers.
no bro this is a rare game ....that was partially financed by Nintendo.... Miyamoto and company ain't got shit to do with this
I was an egg in my mom's ovaries when the original KI and MK came out, I still enjoy them. "The new generations have no idea" yea that's a lie.
This was supposed to be the game that came with Ultra 64/Nintendo 64 back in the days, so much for that...

The snes version was pretty good I used to play it all the time.
Why didn’t they ever make Mortal Kombat vs Killer Instinct? That would have been a cool game!
Or they could put some KI characters in MK11 as guest DLC characters.
I think it would've been better in the old format. Like MK 3 & Ultimate MK 3 & Trilogy. The newer ones are lame af.
I'd prefer not to see Orchid holding her own intestines.

@@ryansteele2111 I played this game 1994 as 16yo as teen in the arcades in Belgium (as well as Street Fighter 2 & 3, Mortal Kombat 1-3) Killer Instinct blew us away in the arcades.
This game was waaaaay ahead of its time. This game set the standard for combo systems in fighting games like mario 64 set the standard for 3d games.
Bullshit statement
Street Fighter II had 3 and 5 hit combos before KI. KI's combos system is almost the same as SF except KI let's you extend combos thru linkers. I love both games , it's MK I do not like.
Still remember hearing this game right away when you walked in the arcade🤘👍
I always loved the opening theme song. Still holds up today.
Killer Instinct, 1995. Best graphics and best soundtrack in whole arcade history. Period.
Omg the nostalgia. This game was so good 😢
the best fighting game in history !!! :)))
+Mario Vazquez fucking true man !
Not if you are familiar with Capcom and SNK stuff.
Everyone has their likes
so true... it was just..... SICK
so true... it was just..... SICK
DJ Combo stage..."YO CHECK THIS OUT!" I always loved that.
Tremendo juego,era llegar de clase,super nintendo y killer instinct 🙌🙌 que tiempos tan felices ❤
No salió para la super nintendo, salió para la nintendo 64
Brings back memories of ditching school just to play this game.
They need a "BLOODY ROAR" remake.💯💪
Dude, I would lose my shit.
I would pay money for a Bloody roar remake
@Bizarre dude!I know I'm just seeing it,but I hope they really do it "AWESOME" is all i have to say.😎💯
Bloody Roar was straight fire! So underrated
Yes
Ahh, Saberwolf. My personal favorite character in Killer Instinct. Simplistic commands that require almost no real indepth training to master. Saberwolf was the only character I could use and pull off "Godlike" combos. When I played against my friend we did something that was never mentioned. There are combos and combo breakers, and my friend and I discovered one hidden aspect. Counter breakers. Which occurs when u combo break a combo breaker. When performed, u can continue your combo as if the combo breaker never happened, AND future combo breakers can not be preformed for rest of that combo.
mortal kombat 2 and this game are the best arcade fighting games
Morgan combat 2 is the best fighting game ever till today
My 2 all time favorites
True
Awesome comment
You are missing the king of fighter 94
Increíble que hasta la intro del juego haya dejado el siguiente mensaje de que el Juego llegaría a Nintendo 64, en 1995 Promesa que nunca se cumplió. Pero en su lugar llegó un Port muy bueno a la Snes. Buena forma de Despedir el ciclo de vida del SNES. Igualmente la colaboración entre Nintendo y Rare creo una de las primeras arcades en utilizar un disco Duro IDE como medio de almacenamiento para el juego. Y usando de base el Hardware de la próxima en aununciarse Nintendo 64. Sin duda muy buen Trabajo Colaborativo.
En medio de tanto comentario anglosajón es bueno leer uno hispano bien detallado y redactado...
Freaking nostalgia man gives me the chills. It’s sad to know that kids from this era never got to experience such greatness. These are times when violence wasn’t such a thing and games were actually put well together. Wait my kids could get to experience this game I own it on my Xbox one lol. G2G
This game sends chills down my spine.
I always used to play this grew up playing the classics blessed
Agradeço meu irmão mais velho pelo bom gosto em jogos,sem ele eu nunca teria conhecido killer instinct ❤
"Available for your home in 2020, only on Nintendo Switch! Featuring Killer Instinct Gold"
Banjo-Kazooie is in Smash now. :)
I hope for remakes
@SmartBoyBR Don't forget Cuphead coming to Switch as well.
We'll pretend it wasn't a launch game for Xbox one lmfao
The arcade was years ahead of the SNES I still remember.
All arcade ports were back then.
Imagine how Donkey Kong Country would have looked as an arcade game.
I know this one got everyone reminiscing about the good ol days but can we talk about the gameplay? This man is a beast lol
Wish they would have at least made a movie of this game just like they did with Mortal combat and street fighter
Animated or live action?
This version shits all over the new one. The gameplay, character design, soundtrack and pure awesomeness this game provides is superior.
No lies here!
Lol no
I remember when I first saw this in Arcades when I was 10. I was so mesmerized with the graphics and couldn't wait for a console port. While the SNES version didn't stack up graphically, they still managed to accurately port the addictive gameplay.
The chills from that
ULTRAAAAAAAA COMBOOOOOOOO shoutout
Lol
I totally agree! This was the best implementation of positive reinforcement I've ever encountered in video games.
Ruby Patterson probably because It sounds awesome
@@heroprime7599 because that's how you let the other person know there ass just got a beat down
Cuantos recuerdos de mi niñes año 1995 como que fue ayer....
Alexis Rivera pues no perro fue hace como 1000 años al igual me pasa ami
Nuestra niñez, pensar que Nintendo lanzaba estos bestias de juegos en aquel tiempo.
Mi madre me la compro entonces por 30.000 pesetas con el super mario y strett faiter o como pollas se escriba y luego me compre el killer insting
Es casi imposible olvidar esos años jugando estos juegos, que para la época eran bien adelantados.
Alguien sabe como descargarlo en Android? ?
Absolutely fantastic fighting game This brings back all the memories of my time spent dumping quarters into this machine with utter joy literally standing in line to play Then destroying people with Chief Thunder. Oh how I miss my high school days MASTERPIECE👊🏽💯
This game remind me lot of things. For me it still the best fighting game ever
Music his a masterpiece.
I was 20 years old when this game came out for the Super Nintendo in 1995, and I played it for 1 year straight. I loved it!
Um dos melhores jogos de luta de tds os tempos sem dúvida!
after all of this years, i never know that there is ULTRAAAAAAAAA COMBOOOOOOOOOOO!
I used to main Sinder. He had the ability to basically air juggle infinitely if you set up the right combos. I think I remember getting a 108 hit combo air juggling with him before I got tired and just let the combo end. I never ever played another fighter game I had even the slightest skill in, but this game was something special…
But man, that Sabrewulf wake up low block 37 hit combo sure looks nasty…
Best fighting game in history
Exactly!
Nope. The best fighting game is Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3
Trust me it's Killer Instinct 1 Arcade!
Marvel vs capcom 2 is the GOAT
Street Fighter 3 The Third Strike is the greatest
Jesus christ I completely forgot about this, dam this brought me back
Этому видео 8 лет! А я до сих пор восхищаюсь этой игрой, правда ностальгирую не по этой версии а на обычной нинтендо. Нравилось Оркид и Гласиусом играть. Самый сложный по комбам был Джаго) Сейчас бы приставку нинтендо купить с этой игрой)
Sabrewulf been my fave since Kmart had blue light specials back in 8th grade... swear to god his stage background music is my gym theme
SUPREME KI! Sabrewulf my #1 fighter. I use the narrator's saying "SABREWULF"! as my alarm. When that sound calls, it's time to rise and kick ass another day!
The intro still gives me goosebumps. Awesome.
definitely, this game was way ahead of its time, I missed this so much
"Available for your home in 1995. Only on Nintendo Ultra 64"
And then it came on SNES 🤣
.... KILLER INSTINCT!!!! 👌
It was originally intended to come out on the Ultra 64. Then the Ultra 64 got delayed and renamed to the Nintendo 64.
@@diegoocesar1 snes first what ate you on,64 got killer gold
Lo mejor de aquella época , recordando mi adolescencia. Allá por 1994, ahora A mis casi 50 , me transporta a ese pasado espectacular . Viva Mexico
Lo mismo sentí yo mi amigo. Yo te 28 y me tocó jugar ésto por ahí del 2004/2005 todos los días, no se diga en las vacaciones😢. Ayer por casualidad me apareció en facebook y no pude evitar sentir emociones. Bien dicen que recordar es revivir. Saludos! 👍
