Glad you mentioned that Art of Fighting was made by the same folks (like, the same people, rather than the same company) that made Street Fighter. It always kinda rubs me the wrong way when people say Art of Fighting is a rip-off of Street Fighter, in the same manner that it rubs me the wrong way when people say Bayonetta is a knock-off of Devil May Cry.

Thanks for the vod. Fun fact about 9:03: Shingo was originally going to be a Sakura knock off but since Kyo already had a fiancee, they turned him into a guy. And SNK went bankrupt but managed to do SNK Chaos, which was bought by a Chinese company, (which is why it's called Playmore) THEN they separated when they got enough money which is why they are called SNK again.
Playmore was almost a decade before the chinese acquisition, and Playmore was founded by SNK's founder Eikichi Kawasaki, it was a way to recover his brand from Aruze after SNK's bankrupcy.
The thing is, there were still Chinese shareholders after SNK's bankruptcy, so Eikichi didn't really get them out until recently. It's sort of like the situation with Guilty Gear.
If i remember correctly, Playmore almost got bankrupt around the mid 2000's and i think it was around this time that a chinese company bought the majority share.
Okay Larry, come clean. Ever since people noticed that every time you say "But, hello you!" in the intro that there's always racing game footage and started talking about it, you've slowly but surely added more and more footage of exclusively racing games into the intro and we've reached the point where the entire thing is racing game footage...in a video about devs trolling. Brilliant, but please tell us it was planned!
@@Larry Speaking of racing, I know this Japanese racing game series known as "Choro Q" that is very lesser known in Western territories, mostly due to the fact that they often go under different titles, e.g. Choro Q HG, Choro Q HG 2 and Shin Combat Choro Q are "Penny Racers", "Road Trip Adventure" and "Seek and Destroy" in Europe and Oceania respectively. Most Choro Q games like Choro Q Works are Japan-exclusive, but lot of them are very good games.

I know some have thought over the years that SNK was just "ripping off" Capcom and Street Fighter, but the reality, as described here, is that it's an alternate branch of evolution of the original concept because one of the original creators joined SNK. While I loved Street Fighter 2, I was also turned off by the stagnation in that series for a while. Meanwhile, I really liked the concepts SNK was putting into their fighting games. When Street Fighter Alpha came out, while the sprite work was great, I didn't love the art direction. Still, really cool seeing the Alpha clips back to back with King of Fighters. The sprite work in both is quality. King Of Fighters still looks amazing to me after all these years. I fell in love with the game back in the day, despite it being right next to a Street Fighter 3 machine. The SNK style just spoke to me in those days.

15:30 You missed the bit in San Andreas where on the Madd Dogg's Rhyme Book mission they call out 'Refractions' for releasing the crap that Driv3r was :P
The story of SNK and Capcom rivalry is amazing, they're the best Frenemies, and you all know how many crossover games they made as well. Try that with another company and they will sue your ass 90 times, until they harvest your organs as a final step.
The same "frenemies" connotation can also be said of DMA Design/Rockstar North and Reflections, as Shadow of the Beast 3 features David Jones (one of DMA's co-founders who created Lemmings and GTA) in the "special thanks" portion of the game's end credits.
@@Inriri Doubtful, it quite ended in a less interesting note than anything. At that time fighting games were losing a lot of momentum and that was one of the main reasons as for why, aside the "blandness" Many people barely even remembers CvS1 and 2. Arcades were starting to go extinct as well, I faintly remember some CvS1 and 2 cabinets but people were putting money on computer time to play counter strike, that was the "online boom" around here, poor cabinets they were one by one pull apart. Now in this moment of pandemic they could try something together again and I'm certain it will catch people's attention by a lot, with better technology and the duo's affiliation to mix stories, could be something brand new, with the artstyle of SNK and Capcom's playability it could be even a new brand fighting game certain to be well recognizable, it is a new golden age for gaming nowadays so many titles coming up and exciting develops that I can't wait to try out. Plus it didn't matter on these oopsies with SNK and Capcom. Capcom screwed over itself as karma over the past years anyways.
@@Max-ej4oh That's a lot of words to say "I don't know what I'm talking about." Capcom got all of the profits from CVS1/2 and screwed SNK over by forcing them to rush SVC Chaos out the door. >Capcom screwed over itself as karma over the past years anyways You wot. Are you one of those people that won't stop whining about SFV?
I haven't played it since it was a new release, but I remember getting stuck on the slalom in the garage, I had to use cheats to skip the tutorial lol.
Since James "Buster" Douglas was born on April 7 1960 he wasn't created on a cold autumn evening but rather a mild early summer one. Oh god I feel so petty.
Chubby Gristle came to mind considering the devs had to deal with a parking attendant. I wonder if that attendant ever heard of Chubby Gristle. 3:35 It would’ve been so cool if Punch-Out featuring Mike Tyson was put on the E-Shop as to promote Mike Tyson Mysteries. Even if we did have the other version that didn’t have Tyson. 5:29 I remember playing it since I didn’t have a machine to run Super Meat Boy on. Then I found the Meat Boy Flash game on Newgrounds 10:17 I remember when someone mentioned how Johnny Cage started out as a middle finger to Jean Claude Van Damme and then transitioned to beating Scorpion and Sub Zero and making love with Sonya, the guy said it would be like if Dan Hibiki bested Ryu, Ken, and Akuma, and slamming Chun-Li so pregnant that their kid becomes the new main character.
And Larry may have gotten it wrong. It wasn't SNK's Art Of Fighting that pissed off Capcom. But rather, it was SNK's King Of Fighters 94 that pissed off Capcom. This can be seen in the cutscene, where Rugal Bernstein(the final boss of KOF 94) brags about his hobby of making statues of *"fighters"* he defeated. You'll notice that 3 of the statues looks like Guile,Ryu and Akuma. To add further proof, Rugal and Guile has a funny intro in Capcom Vs SNK that calls back to the KOF94 cutscene. Both Rugal and Guile destroy the statue that looks like Guile.
is "But, HELLOOOOooo yooou.."" a British thing or is it just larry thing? for some reason its always sounded weird to me. Not as bad as Jack Septic Eyes outro does on the odd chance i decide to click a video like if hes playing a spyro game or something.
Edmund’s trolling levels are OBSCENE. Any Isaac fan would know how many times they’ve gotten a bad run because of the RNG. Also, Larry Jr. is a reference to Larries’ Lament, the fifth boss in Super Meat Boy. I don’t know why his name is Larry, though, considering that’s my first name Edmund could be trolling ME.
The best thing about Moira is she is a super out of place reference to a niche anime character. Very blatant & detailed reference, too. No one has yet to comment on it after a decade of Fallout 3 releasing tho...that's just how deep cut a reference she is.
To be fair though, it is ironic Capcom fired back in response to Ryo & Robert Garcia ripping off their characters yet I don't think SNK has done anything about Capcom blatantly ripping off their character Yuri with Sakura 🤣
And it may not be SNK's Art Of Fighting that pissed off Capcom. But rather, it was SNK's King Of Fighters 94. If you manage to reach Rugal Bernstein(the final boss of KOF94), the cutscene has Rugal bragging about making statues of *"fighters"* he *"defeated".* You'll then notice that 3 of the statues looks like Guile,Ryu and Akuma. So you can see SNK was intentionally mocking Capcom. Capcom took notice when Dan appeared in Street Fighter Alpha(released in 1995) as intended to be a mockery of the Kyokugenryu practicioners(Ryo,Takuma,Robert and Yuri). Further proof of KOF94 is what pissed off Capcom, can be seen in Rugal's and Guile's intro in Capcom Vs SNK, where they both destroy a statue of Guile(which is a funny call back to the Rugal cutscene in KOF94).
I'm pretty sure Ryo is supposed to an homage to Ryu and not a shot taken. He's not a joke character like the others on this list. Dan on the other hand feels more like a parody of Steven Segal; a guy who thinks he's hot stuff in martial arts, but is clearly a big loser that no one cares about. So that's why Driv3r was so bad. The developers were so concerned with trying to get back at Rockstar that they had to rush the game out so the world could see Timmy. Too bad Rockstar had the last laugh in the end.
Not only Dan's taunting is based off of AoF, but his fireball and DP as well: AoF's main mechanic is a "spirit gauge" AKA super bar that you can charge and is consumed by your super moves. When your bar's low, Ryo's fireball is as short-ranged as Dan's is. Not only that, but SNK also didn't mind slapping back with the introduction of Yuri Sakazaki, Ryo's little sister as a playable character: In almost every KOF game she has one different move taken off of Capcom's shoto gallery. Also, fun fact: Whenever Dan is in an SNK-developed crossover with Capcom they actually run with the joke (example: moves based off of Ryo's supers, interactions that confuse him with said Robert, etc.)
12:10 And then, Rockstar mocked the Driver series again in GTA:SA. During the "Madd Dogg's rhymes" mission, there's a cutscene where you can hear one of the guards say "This sucks. I mean, how could Refractions mess up so bad? Tanner, you suck ass!"
@@lianaverwood9810 I can see that, although personally so far Piranha Plant is the only Ultimate DLC I've had any hype over whatsoever. All the others so far have been either from games I've never played, or games I didn't enjoy when I did play them. But I also hate Waluigi, so my own example doesn't particularly apply to myself either. lol
Remember when Chris-chan made a version of his teacher, Mary Lee Walsh, in Soul Calibur so he could beat her up? Yeeeah, thank Godbear he never got anywhere near a game's development. It would consist solely of people that have wronged him, like his Shitchu comics. Also a stage where you, our brave hero, get to bang Barbara.
Wow, I never had any idea what was up with the hat on Judas. The funny thing is unlike some of these other characters, he's actually a really good playable character and not a purposely terrible one.
I just realized that you snuck the EA logo into the PETA logo. That's genius. Also it's just funny to me that Smash Bros. now has Ryo as a Mii costume to go along with Terry. Also Dan Hibiki is the ultimate Chad. Best Street Fighter character full stop.
I remember Space Harrier was a funny story because Yu Suzuki insulted the original developer by making the giant faces on the second look like him, and give the level his name (Ida).
Speaking of Dan, the first time I ever played street fighter 4 was with my friends that were WAY into street fighter. I picked Dan, because I knew I was gonna suck so I figured, ok, I'll pick Dan because why not? I ended up button mashing my way to Dan's best combo and murdered my friend that was arguably the best out of the three of them lmfao. That was after getting my ass handed to me for most of the round.
Just to note something: contrary to popular belief, the devs at SNK and Capcom already knew what they were going to "do to each other" and they were actually friends... They even had group dinners, because back then it was common to switch companies due to not having enough pros or simply disagreeing with Top Management (like what happened with DC and Marvel, who were direct neighbours). The ones that were at each other throats were the Board of said companies (who actually knew about their dinner meetings and were against it) and the Media back then were also fanning the flames (for selling purposes, of course). Ryu, Ken, Gouki, Sakura, Dan, Dan's father (in Super Puzzle Fighter), Sean, Gouken, Evil Ryu, Evil Ken, Evil Sakura, Shin Gouki, Allen and Kairi (from Fighting Ex), Oni, Kage... Even Capcom itself parodies its characters with its large list of Shotoclones 😏 (I actually think that when Capcom is lacking in roster they just do a paint job over Ryu and toss us a "new" character🤣🤣)
8:50 there's also the fact that Phil Fish was known to have publicly beefed with the co-creator of Fez and was accused of stealing the idea from underneath him
So, if Larry ever makes his own game, I'll be on the lookout for a "Molly/Monte Pete" or some such character popping up in the game. I'd imagine he'd be some big talking swindler who makes lots of oversized promises he can't keep. Of course, I have absolutely NO CLUE where I even got such an idea from, non whatso ever!
Larry, Super Meat boy hadn't "been available as a flash game". The original flash game is a smaller and clunkier version. It is at best a demo for Super Meat Boy. Get your facts straight son.
there many things i luv about sunday,they are spendin time with my gurl,goin too church and a good larry bundy jr fact hunt video..cant wait too see too see another.
Let me tell you about the Scorpia enemy from Might and Magic 3. It was named after a video game journalist who gave Might and Magic 2 a low score. And it looks like a morbidly obese drag queen with gray skin.
Am I alone in thinking Dan Hibiki is actually a pretty good character to use? Yeah, he's not good at distance fighting, but up close, he's pretty good.
Depends, usually even on that he kind of sucks, rarely can do combos and most of his buttons are a bit stubby and slow. But then he sometimes gets things like the most powerful super in the game he's in (MvC2, SvC), can almost get you in infinites (SFV), or he's just pretty good (SFIV)

The story of SNK and Capcom rivalry is amazing, they're the best Frenemies, and you all know how many crossover games they made as well.
Try that with another company and they will sue your ass 90 times, until they harvest your organs as a final step.
The same "frenemies" connotation can also be said of DMA Design/Rockstar North and Reflections, as Shadow of the Beast 3 features David Jones (one of DMA's co-founders who created Lemmings and GTA) in the "special thanks" portion of the game's end credits.
and it ended with Capcom screwing over SNK with CvS1 and 2
@@Inriri Doubtful, it quite ended in a less interesting note than anything. At that time fighting games were losing a lot of momentum and that was one of the main reasons as for why, aside the "blandness"
Many people barely even remembers CvS1 and 2.
Arcades were starting to go extinct as well, I faintly remember some CvS1 and 2 cabinets but people were putting money on computer time to play counter strike, that was the "online boom" around here, poor cabinets they were one by one pull apart.
Now in this moment of pandemic they could try something together again and I'm certain it will catch people's attention by a lot, with better technology and the duo's affiliation to mix stories, could be something brand new, with the artstyle of SNK and Capcom's playability it could be even a new brand fighting game certain to be well recognizable, it is a new golden age for gaming nowadays so many titles coming up and exciting develops that I can't wait to try out.
Plus it didn't matter on these oopsies with SNK and Capcom.
Capcom screwed over itself as karma over the past years anyways.
@@Max-ej4oh That's a lot of words to say "I don't know what I'm talking about." Capcom got all of the profits from CVS1/2 and screwed SNK over by forcing them to rush SVC Chaos out the door.
>Capcom screwed over itself as karma over the past years anyways
You wot. Are you one of those people that won't stop whining about SFV?
Special mention to Postal Guy, who was quite literally designed to piss people off.
I’m surprised that Driver managed to spawn just one sequel. That tutorial at the beginning is so unforgiving.
I haven't played it since it was a new release, but I remember getting stuck on the slalom in the garage, I had to use cheats to skip the tutorial lol.
@@JuniperMe How?
"Hey man watch the paint!"
I honestly don't see why people complain about Driver 1's tutorial. The instruction manual tells you everything you need to do.
@@ourdivinemouseoverlord3308 when I got the game as a kid I only got the disk. I never got to play the rest of the game.
Since James "Buster" Douglas was born on April 7 1960 he wasn't created on a cold autumn evening but rather a mild early summer one.
Oh god I feel so petty.
Chubby Gristle came to mind considering the devs had to deal with a parking attendant. I wonder if that attendant ever heard of Chubby Gristle.
3:35 It would’ve been so cool if Punch-Out featuring Mike Tyson was put on the E-Shop as to promote Mike Tyson Mysteries. Even if we did have the other version that didn’t have Tyson.
5:29 I remember playing it since I didn’t have a machine to run Super Meat Boy on. Then I found the Meat Boy Flash game on Newgrounds
10:17 I remember when someone mentioned how Johnny Cage started out as a middle finger to Jean Claude Van Damme and then transitioned to beating Scorpion and Sub Zero and making love with Sonya, the guy said it would be like if Dan Hibiki bested Ryu, Ken, and Akuma, and slamming Chun-Li so pregnant that their kid becomes the new main character.
I covered it in a previous video, but I'm not sure if the attendant was ever aware of it.
I can always rely on good old Larry to upload something entertaining and informative when you need it most.
Came for the classic story of Dan, stayed for everything else
Same
I usually get to see a new one!
And Larry may have gotten it wrong. It wasn't SNK's Art Of Fighting that pissed off Capcom. But rather, it was SNK's King Of Fighters 94 that pissed off Capcom. This can be seen in the cutscene, where Rugal Bernstein(the final boss of KOF 94) brags about his hobby of making statues of *"fighters"* he defeated. You'll notice that 3 of the statues looks like Guile,Ryu and Akuma. To add further proof, Rugal and Guile has a funny intro in Capcom Vs SNK that calls back to the KOF94 cutscene. Both Rugal and Guile destroy the statue that looks like Guile.
@@bagsikdangal I remember now!
I didn’t get to play the first KOF
Ah, I needed the "Helloooo yooou..." SOOO much today... Thank you, Larry.
is "But, HELLOOOOooo yooou.."" a British thing or is it just larry thing? for some reason its always sounded weird to me. Not as bad as Jack Septic Eyes outro does on the odd chance i decide to click a video like if hes playing a spyro game or something.
saw you comment and could see it meant a lot to you, so i figured you would maybe know.
Damn Edmund McMillan getting 2 entries in a single top?, he sures love to piss off people lol
Edmund’s trolling levels are OBSCENE. Any Isaac fan would know how many times they’ve gotten a bad run because of the RNG.
Also, Larry Jr. is a reference to Larries’ Lament, the fifth boss in Super Meat Boy. I don’t know why his name is Larry, though, considering that’s my first name Edmund could be trolling ME.
Dan is legit nowadays. People won many matches with him
SF5?
YEP
XD
Not heard The Getaway mentioned in a long while. I used to absolutely love that game. There was just something so fun about it.
Yeah, it was quite good. There was a kind of sequel titled Getaway: Black Monday.
What about Moira Brown from Fallout 3? I swear her sole reason for existence is to be the first person everyone murders in horrific fashion.
... THAT Moira Brown? 😟🥺
Hey now! Some of us actually liked Moira and her antics, even if her sidequest has clearly overstayed its welcome by the time you finish it. 😋
@@Jolis_Parsec She has fans? Oh fu-
Nah I am kidding, if ya like her that's all good! She annoyed the heck out of me though-
@@thevgmlover Yes...THAT one......The demon.
The best thing about Moira is she is a super out of place reference to a niche anime character. Very blatant & detailed reference, too. No one has yet to comment on it after a decade of Fallout 3 releasing tho...that's just how deep cut a reference she is.
I've always loved Dan's manly tears of victory
I don't know why I enjoy those accurate alliterations so much. I imagine it's inspiring intentional inclination in impassioned initiators.
Mmm, Sonic Mayhem's Descent into Cerberon from the Quake 2 soundtrack. The good stuff.
SNK responded to Dan by having Yuri parody Capcom characters
The fellowship THAT WORKED ON BOTH GAME SERIES:
“Honto tanoshi desu! XD “
It’s a great a day when Larry uploads.
Seems like the wait gets longer and longer...
That it is.
@@patricklee1633 tbh it only took a week, his last two recent uploads came quicker than the others as it took a month or multiple weeks
I love how Larry picks the most purposefully shit sponsors, like "Look at these rubes who think this is going to work, and I took their money!"
Agreed, I'm still unsure what kind of shit mobile app he was trying to sell to me in this episode.
Almost 11pm, back home after a 13 hour day, knackered and headachey.
"But... hello you!"
And everything's good again.
Aw, bless you :)
I just realized Peta’s logo looks a lot like EA’s
That might explain why their both total shit.
"Hibiki" also means "echo", I think, in Japanese, which might also be a further dig (The other character is simply an "echo" of the original version).
Good info!
To be fair though, it is ironic Capcom fired back in response to Ryo & Robert Garcia ripping off their characters yet I don't think SNK has done anything about Capcom blatantly ripping off their character Yuri with Sakura 🤣
And it may not be SNK's Art Of Fighting that pissed off Capcom. But rather, it was SNK's King Of Fighters 94. If you manage to reach Rugal Bernstein(the final boss of KOF94), the cutscene has Rugal bragging about making statues of *"fighters"* he *"defeated".* You'll then notice that 3 of the statues looks like Guile,Ryu and Akuma. So you can see SNK was intentionally mocking Capcom. Capcom took notice when Dan appeared in Street Fighter Alpha(released in 1995) as intended to be a mockery of the Kyokugenryu practicioners(Ryo,Takuma,Robert and Yuri). Further proof of KOF94 is what pissed off Capcom, can be seen in Rugal's and Guile's intro in Capcom Vs SNK, where they both destroy a statue of Guile(which is a funny call back to the Rugal cutscene in KOF94).
lol, I knew that Driv3r was going to be on the list. I remember when I first played the game, and saw the water wings. It was hilarious!
I'm pretty sure Ryo is supposed to an homage to Ryu and not a shot taken. He's not a joke character like the others on this list. Dan on the other hand feels more like a parody of Steven Segal; a guy who thinks he's hot stuff in martial arts, but is clearly a big loser that no one cares about.
So that's why Driv3r was so bad. The developers were so concerned with trying to get back at Rockstar that they had to rush the game out so the world could see Timmy. Too bad Rockstar had the last laugh in the end.
Dan even looks a little like Seagal, but is actually endearing. 😂
Not only Dan's taunting is based off of AoF, but his fireball and DP as well: AoF's main mechanic is a "spirit gauge" AKA super bar that you can charge and is consumed by your super moves. When your bar's low, Ryo's fireball is as short-ranged as Dan's is.
Not only that, but SNK also didn't mind slapping back with the introduction of Yuri Sakazaki, Ryo's little sister as a playable character: In almost every KOF game she has one different move taken off of Capcom's shoto gallery.
Also, fun fact: Whenever Dan is in an SNK-developed crossover with Capcom they actually run with the joke (example: moves based off of Ryo's supers, interactions that confuse him with said Robert, etc.)
Honestly, the boxing game is the only one of these that doesn't seem REALLY petty.
Dan worked out, though, he became a loving parody over time.
Hiya larry...great to hear from you
Larry I tried pirating super Mario 2 on the Gameboy and now Nintendo is going to behead me arg arg arg
12:10 And then, Rockstar mocked the Driver series again in GTA:SA. During the "Madd Dogg's rhymes" mission, there's a cutscene where you can hear one of the guards say "This sucks. I mean, how could Refractions mess up so bad? Tanner, you suck ass!"
#6: Waluigi. Created to piss off Nintendo fans for decades as Nintendo proceeds to do nothing but shaft him.
Or the inclusion of Piranha Plant in Smash Ultimate with the same goal in mind.
@@lianaverwood9810 I can see that, although personally so far Piranha Plant is the only Ultimate DLC I've had any hype over whatsoever. All the others so far have been either from games I've never played, or games I didn't enjoy when I did play them.
But I also hate Waluigi, so my own example doesn't particularly apply to myself either. lol
Fun Fact: Tofu Boy was the idea of Edmund McMillen. Edmund McMillen used fake names on PETA forums and goaded PETA into making a parody of his game.
Larry uploads, I like the content. I'm a simple man
'Opens video, instantly searches for Dan' .... 'Sees Dan, feels that all is right with the world and Larry knows his shit!'
Lol, thanks bud! :)
Remember when Chris-chan made a version of his teacher, Mary Lee Walsh, in Soul Calibur so he could beat her up? Yeeeah, thank Godbear he never got anywhere near a game's development. It would consist solely of people that have wronged him, like his Shitchu comics. Also a stage where you, our brave hero, get to bang Barbara.
Wow, I never had any idea what was up with the hat on Judas.
The funny thing is unlike some of these other characters, he's actually a really good playable character and not a purposely terrible one.
Binding of Isaac: one of the finest and most unforgiving games out there.
I partly stick to spin-offs because they are on sale
XD
And I am bad at that genre so I will never do good at harder ones!
XD
I just realized that you snuck the EA logo into the PETA logo. That's genius.
Also it's just funny to me that Smash Bros. now has Ryo as a Mii costume to go along with Terry. Also Dan Hibiki is the ultimate Chad. Best Street Fighter character full stop.
Oh, man, using PETA games is borderline cheating. :-P
Yea but the kids luv it, Peter on the other hand has been grossly offended 😂
I remember Space Harrier was a funny story because Yu Suzuki insulted the original developer by making the giant faces on the second look like him, and give the level his name (Ida).
Speaking of Dan, the first time I ever played street fighter 4 was with my friends that were WAY into street fighter. I picked Dan, because I knew I was gonna suck so I figured, ok, I'll pick Dan because why not? I ended up button mashing my way to Dan's best combo and murdered my friend that was arguably the best out of the three of them lmfao. That was after getting my ass handed to me for most of the round.
YEAA new video!
Dan Hibiki shoulda been in smash honestly.
Quake II soundtrack + retro racing games = 👍
Larry! You forgot about Senator from Eternal Champions!
Thanks for putting the subtitles in! They're always helpful!
no worries, i always feel it helps. plus the youtube generated ones are a garbled mess. :D
Your inappropriate music choices were on point. I even knew you were trolling, and putting GTA:SA on top of Driv3r still made me clench.
Just to note something: contrary to popular belief, the devs at SNK and Capcom already knew what they were going to "do to each other" and they were actually friends... They even had group dinners, because back then it was common to switch companies due to not having enough pros or simply disagreeing with Top Management (like what happened with DC and Marvel, who were direct neighbours).
The ones that were at each other throats were the Board of said companies (who actually knew about their dinner meetings and were against it) and the Media back then were also fanning the flames (for selling purposes, of course).
Ryu, Ken, Gouki, Sakura, Dan, Dan's father (in Super Puzzle Fighter), Sean, Gouken, Evil Ryu, Evil Ken, Evil Sakura, Shin Gouki, Allen and Kairi (from Fighting Ex), Oni, Kage... Even Capcom itself parodies its characters with its large list of Shotoclones 😏 (I actually think that when Capcom is lacking in roster they just do a paint job over Ryu and toss us a "new" character🤣🤣)
Points for using a portion of Quake 2's soundtrack. I love vintage Sonic Mayhem.
8:50 there's also the fact that Phil Fish was known to have publicly beefed with the co-creator of Fez and was accused of stealing the idea from underneath him
“Suck my dick, choke on it”
“Compare your life to mine and then kill yourself”
I miss that asshats antics
Right on time, thanks Lare.
Twinstick Roguelike Bullethell Nonsense. That's The Binding of Isaac, and it's the best game ever for it.
My personal list is the entire cast of ssb.
Hello! Just letting you know that I appreciate the Closed Captioning; thanks for adding it!
2:48 So many hours playing Joe Montana and especially the talking sequel. Good times.
So, if Larry ever makes his own game, I'll be on the lookout for a "Molly/Monte Pete" or some such character popping up in the game. I'd imagine he'd be some big talking swindler who makes lots of oversized promises he can't keep. Of course, I have absolutely NO CLUE where I even got such an idea from, non whatso ever!
This ought to be good
*Edit*
It was and I'll always appreciate that CvS2 soundtrack whenever it's used
While Dan was created to mocking Ryo Sakazaki and Robert Garcia, SNK using Yuri Sakazaki straight up roasting whole Street Fighter character.
Welcome to The Dan Hibiki Podcast. I'm your host, Dan Hibiki. Today's topic: "Dan Hibiki: Street Fighter or STREETEST Fighter?"
Next week's episode: how to be the king of fighters when you hate the art of fighting
In SVC chaos, the Snk characters sometimes mistake Dan as Robert Garcia which is amazing
Ah yes, my favourite game. "The Binding of Issac"
it’s actually an amazing game, and the reasons rougelikes are so popular nowadays!
A really long time ago (I think 2008) Peta made a Mario parody where you have to fight an evil Cornel Sanders and rescue Pamela Anderson.
Larry, Super Meat boy hadn't "been available as a flash game". The original flash game is a smaller and clunkier version. It is at best a demo for Super Meat Boy. Get your facts straight son.
The flash game has better controls because you don't slip all over the damn place, change my mind son
there many things i luv about sunday,they are spendin time with my gurl,goin too church and a good larry bundy jr fact hunt video..cant wait too see too see another.
anyone else always say "hello, you!" along with Larry?
1:17 omfg that Super Smash TV music. That hit hard. I want a Switch version of that game, it would do so well
I'm a simple guy. I see Larry upload a new video, I click. ;)
8:05 Indeed. Just ask SNK and at least half of the Neo Geo library...
Let me tell you about the Scorpia enemy from Might and Magic 3. It was named after a video game journalist who gave Might and Magic 2 a low score. And it looks like a morbidly obese drag queen with gray skin.
Am I alone in thinking Dan Hibiki is actually a pretty good character to use? Yeah, he's not good at distance fighting, but up close, he's pretty good.
Depends, usually even on that he kind of sucks, rarely can do combos and most of his buttons are a bit stubby and slow. But then he sometimes gets things like the most powerful super in the game he's in (MvC2, SvC), can almost get you in infinites (SFV), or he's just pretty good (SFIV)
