Dan-Ku-Ga (1994)
Genres:Fighting
Game modes:Multiplayer
Story:A followup to Kaiser Knuckle in the vein of Street Fighter II: Champion Edition, adding playable boss characters Gonzales and Azteca as well as moveset and mechanic changes. This was the second time Taito attempted to create an upgrade to Kaiser Knuckle, after Kaiser Knuckle EX, a very simple version that did nothing but lower the CPU difficulty of the game.
Dan-Ku-Ga eschews the 5-attack-strength system of Kaiser Knukcle, making most useful strong attacks into "command normals" performed with forward or down-forward and heavy punch or kick. It adds a juggle system for combos unlike other fighting games at the time, and jump cancels on air attacks. The Crush meter still exists, but the move-specific enhanced power zones beyond stage walls are gone.
This is also the first fighting game to include a training mode, selected by the third option on the menu (which is still in Japanese only).Show more

Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow over MystaraIn addition to the original four heroes found in its predecessor, Dungeons & Dragons: Tower of Doom (Cleric, Dwarf, Elf and Fighter), Shadow of Mystara adds a Thief and a Magic-User to the selection. Furthermore, with the inclusion of two separate versions of each character's sprite set, the game allows up to two players to select the same character (in Tower of Doom each of the characters could only be selected once), effectively giving the game 12 "different" characters to choose from. The two Clerics and two Magic Users also have subtle differences within their spell books.
The controls are using four buttons: Attack, Jump, Select (brings up a small inventory ring around the character allowing the player to choose what item is set in the Use slot) and Use. The Cleric, Elf and Magic-User also have two extra rings for their spells, with the Jump button used to switch from ring to ring. While the game uses the same kick harness as the previous game, the Select and Use buttons are reversed.
Shadow over Mystara also introduced a selection of special moves which are executed by moving the joystick and tapping the buttons in certain combinations, in a way similar to the Street Fighter series. The characters (except for the Magic-User) have a Dashing Attack as well as a Rising Attack which can be used to combo monsters or even juggle them in the air. Most characters (again, with the exception of the Magic-User and also Cleric) also have a Megacrush, a move common to nearly all of Capcom side-scrollers, which damages all enemies standing close enough to the character but in turn also damaging the player themselves.Action
