Kung Fu NES Secrets and History | Generation Gap Gaming - I want you to think of your top 5 NES launch titles you had when you were a kid? Of course you’d immediately name classics like Super Mario Bros., Duck Hunt, or Excitebike, but I’d be willing to bet that Kung Fu made your list too because I can’t think of a single person I knew that had an NES growing up that didn’t own this game. Kung Fu is one of the true pioneers of the beat em up genre. The story behind its development and inclusion in the NES library is quite compelling and I can’t wait to share all the secrets and history you need to become a Kung Fu NES master. Let’s get started. #KungFu #NES #Nintendo #RetroForce

Just hearing you explaining this and watching you playing it makes me want to pull my NES out of my closet! Lol! I grew up on Nintendo! So this game along with Mega Man, Double Dragon, Ninja Gaiden, Contra, Super Mario Brothers, and Tecmo Bowl games will always have a special place in my heart! 👍

Kung Fu was the first game we purchased for our NES the day we bought our console. Outside of the Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt cartridge that came with it of course. Still have it in my collection. A true classic.

I played this in the late 90's on nestical seeing how many times I could beat it in a row, using save states. I think I got up to around 9. I never knew about the Silvia attacking you at the time, it was just fun to see how far I could go. I also never saw her do anything different

This was the 1st NES game that I ever beat as a kid. Still love playing this game.

This was a favorite of mine in the arcade. One of the best arcade ports for the nes, imo.

Great video. I learned something, thanks! This game goes way back for me. I loved the arcade, played the heck out of it at a bar while my friend's parents drank. The NES hit and this game was the very first game I got for it.

Bro I was there, played this night and day. Played it first in the arcade and had to pay quarters. Later came Ninja Gaiden on NES and it was heaven.

I remember this game more fondly in the arcade, it was really hard and I rarely got past the 2nd stage with how hard the snake pit was (two hits and you were dead). still, a really fun game back in the mid 80s.

Great presentation of the history and background for the foundation of such a memorable classic, you have given me new insight into this game, and I now once again have a sudden urge to go to the attic...

@GenerationGapGaming 5 лет назад

Awesome man. Makes me so happy you enjoyed it.

Cool tips and great job on the history of KM. One extra tip is to leave one knife throwing guy behind you and keep walking foreward. No enemies will pop up in front of you and just before reaching the 6th pillar, beat the knife thrower and kill the end-boss. Works great on the original arcade version (I actually own 😎)

GOOD TIP!!!

I remember kung-fu growing up as a kid! my uncle had the NES and I just fell in love with the system... that game and most all of the 'black box' lineup I just loved it all! To this day I'm not super good at the game though, lol the 4th floor with the flying things gets me every time! I did play a rom of the Japanese sequel, seemed to be mostly the same game just new levels, music enemies and graphics! kinda fun I do recommend checking it out if you liked the first game.

I've gotten on this kick where I'm buying old gaming systems. I started with a Nintendo and the first three games I bought were; Kung Fu, Contra, Top Gun, (yeah I quetioned that one myself!) Mario Bros. and Duck Hunt. I'm hoping to get an Atari next. Needless to say it's fun playing the games that I played as a kid.

I can still here Mr. X laughing as Thomas is looking at Sylvia tied up in the chair. Good memories of this great game.

Being a home computer kid, I only played this in the arcades as Kung Fu Master, but this video really took me back even though I am kind of garbage at the game xD. Great video and presentation as always. I could never nail the knife-guy timings on the arcade, but I did enjoy it all the same. It's actually probably one of the last games I played 'for real' on an arcade machine too as up until about 2005, a local pub had one in the pool room along with a Super Space Invaders and a Double Dragon. If you fancy more Kung Fu, Kung Fu Master on the Gameboy is yet another different version of the game, and probably my favourite over the arcade mode. It's got more settings, and fun enemies like a Jason clone with a giant chainsaw. I always also thought that Green Beret/Rush'N'Attack and Ninjawarriors took this kind of game far further forward than Vigilante, which to me was just Kung Fu Master with slower gameplay, cheaper enemies but improved 16 bit graphics. Sidebar, it's sad that Kung Fu 2 never happened, but weirdly I've seen a Spartan X 2 doing the rounds for the Japanese Famicom? Is that a hack or the real deal?

I don't know how you dig up the awesome info but I like it. I play this game all the time randomly. I played it last week as a matter of fact. Great video 👍
