A pretty simple game but had more versatility than I anticipated. I like how your trousers tint to purple to indicate low health, as the stats info is all the way up there, and the player has got barely any time to look away from the action.
I played this game a lot in the arcade back in the mid 80's. I still love the graphic style and the simple fast gameplay. And the music... oh, the music... Brings back so many fond memories.
You thought Jackie Chan had moves? You thought RoboCop had gratuitous gun violence? You thought Chuck Norris was a one-man army? You thought Arnold was the Last Action Hero? All chumps compared to the high-speed hurricane of martial arts destruction that is Knuckle Joe. I can't even read Batman comics anymore because of this video, they're so boring in comparison.
The guy hitting as crazy fast as Kenshiro
Probably not a coincidence. I read somewhere that this game was heavily inspired by Fist of the North Star.

Lol bad music and frustration with slippery jumps but thanks for stating that mechanic. 15:03 terribly worded ending is classic too 😂
Was this supposed to be a Hokuto No Ken game, but the license got stripped?
Great vid, thanks a lot & happy new year to you.
Oldie but goldie arcade from the past.
I am old enough to remember it.😢

I played this as well, but it was called "Bone Breaker" in the US. Probably via a license from Taito.
This feels like Konami's Kicker but has a lot more to it and is more refined. Looks really cool.
Clearly based on Hokuto no ken character.
Beautiful video ☺️
amazing music
The KNUCKLE at title screen is exactly the same as Sonic & Knucles logo 👀
Imagine getting this ported to sega genesis 😮
The first Street Fighter! 😁
Wish you good year 🎉🥳🎈.
I remember this!!

feels like it inspired street fighter 2010
hard game
You should playback speed 2x
It looks fast.
Arcade? Looks and sounds like NES game
It looks and sounds pretty good for a 1985 arcade game.
@@chano7053 i didn't talk about year of release, but stuffing
@@Jackfromshack yeah but arcade games in 1985 didn't look and sound much better than this, that's what I meant to say.
Rolling thunder was much better
