Killer Instinct Arcade Cabinet MAME Gameplay w/ Hypermarquee 

I remember this game...spend so many quarters on this sucker!!!

KI loved it, I was good as that Jagoff ninja. used to play the arcade at a laundry mat.

This my game right here I can play this all day nice upload man Supreme Victory

Available for your home in 1995 only on Nintendo Ultra 64.

UULLLTRAAAAA COMBOOOOOO!!!

Also, I felt the fatalities were easier to pull off than some of the more ludicrous MK ones.

Nintendo and Rare set the gaming world on fire with their Super Nintendo hit Donkey Kong Country in 1994, largely due to the game’s pseudo-3-D modeled graphics. The three companies (along with Midway combined forces again that same year to create Killer Instinct, bringing that same dynamic look to arcade fighters. Careful attention to detail went into each of the game’s ten playable fighters-skeleton Spinal, werewolf Sabrewulf, burly Native American Chief Thunder, fire creature Cinder, deadly beauty Orchid, dinosaur Riptor, sword-wielding Jago, boxer T.J. Combo, the frozen Glacius and the metal-suited Fulgore-and the effort paid off with one of the best-looking fighters of its time. The same standards were applied to the game’s multiple backgrounds, customized to fit each fighter’s history and personality. By this time, everyone knew the drill: one joystick, six attack buttons, two rounds of combat to the death. Killer Instinct even borrowed the Mortal Kombat fatality idea, allowing players to perform animated “finishers” with names like “Frog Squash” and “Neck Breaker.” Special and combo moves abounded in the game, involving everything from claw slashes to flaming bats. After battling through the regular opponents, one-player contestants took on the ultimate monster: Eyedol, a two-headed ogre. But even after felling this mighty foe, the battle was not yet won. That may have been the end of Killer Instinct, but in the world of arcade fighters, sequels are inevitable. Killer Instinct 2 arrived 2 years later, bringing in new playable characters and a new boss, Gargos. And once more, fighting gamers were forced to limber up their button-pressing fingers and sharpen their killer instincts.

KI and SF2 are my ALL TIME Favs. Orchid was my go-to when i wanted to destroy peeps at the arcade. The Marquee looks KILLER!

This is finally on Xbox arcade now to play on Xbox live against players across the nation. People are really good. Wish it was around 20 years ago!

Supreme Victory.

This game was great. I’d play Orchid, but I never could do high combos. It was fun though.

Yes as you can see guys , by default the demo volume was low untill you insert the coin or get on service menu, combine that with the hypermarquee and you have a 1994 arcade machine.

They debuted Killer Instinct on Nintendo 64 but then it got delayed and replaced it as Killer Instinct 2. Killer Instinct also comes with Killer Cuts CD soundtrack when you buy the SNES console bundled up with Killer Instinct

Aspects of Killer Instinct's core gameplay were influenced from SNK fighting games, namely both the World Heroes series and the Fatal Fury series.

WINNER!

ULTRA COMBO!😀👍

Killer instinct 2 would be cool to see . I never played it as a kid .i don't think they ever made a home port of the second one .thanks for this video ,was awesome !

Available for your home in 1995. Only on SNES and Gameboy super Gameboy and new Gameboy pocket

My favorite Mortal Kombat Klone. Seeing as how Midway published the arcade version, I guess they didn't mind. I think the hardware was a little bit different from the stuff Midway was rolling out at the time. Ken Lobb, one of the game designers was passionate about Street Fighter II and I believe that passion allowed Rare to pastiche Street Fighter's gameplay where it counted to give KI the depth it needed to have staying power. But still... sometimes it gets a bit button mashy. I swear, I've seen people do auto combos by doing a back-forward charge motion and the just mash the punch button several times and they does like an 8 hit combo... what the fuck lol. The Combo Breaker system is supposed to discourage button mashing, but sometimes it feels random to me. Some of KI's infinites are truly ridiculous. I love the visuals of the arcade game the best, but I liked the SNES music better. I must be a sucker for compressed audio. -- AT
