This arcade game along with
Cruisin USA flaunted their superior graphics to promote Nintendo's new upcoming console the
N64 but let me telll you, i played both
KI 1 & 2 on the N64 and they sucked compared to the arcade version, the graphics weren't the same and the uncomfortable N64 controller made doing combos alot harder.
Unlike
MK2 the sequel for this game KI2 practically ruined this franchise. It's only recently they revived it and got it right again. (I haven't played the New KI but ive heard it's good)
Another thing this game had was a screaming announcer that would hype you up
If you did an ultra he would yell
"Uuulltraaaaaa~" like you blew his mind or something
To this day i hear jokes related to this announcer, ive heard ppl disprove ppl's rant and then going
C-C-Combo Breaker!
