Is it really that disparaging? It’s not like Asian people aren’t allowed to poke fun at white people, he’s an over the top cartoon character like every other character in the game, there is a Santa character that shoots projectiles from his huge fat gut, it’s just because the voice actor is white it gives people ammunition to cry like this is the greatest crime ever committed
Ya know, I played this with my brothers at a very impressionable age. And not once have I ever correlated Kung Pow with any Asian person as a kid. I just knew he was a funny character. Their use of some stereotypes gave these characters CHARACTER. I miss renting this game
@@wolfmanwooLCS3 voodoo shaman's always did their voodoo shit with chickens though, it was a common stereotype, and like op said, our minds at the time did not take this information and became racists, we merely saw it and thought it was a funny animated character as the game basically introduced itself to not be taken seriously since day one.
Like I said this they remastered ocarina of Time as well as Twilight princess and this game I will go back to Nintendo right now I'm with 360 and Xbox One I will go back one last ride to Nintendo switch I just checked on the controller for the switch it still works🤔🤣😆😂
This is coming from a native american guy, not an Asian so pardon any ignorance but I feel like this character is a satire of bad stereotypes of Asians from decades that preceeded it- like its poking fun at how absurd stereotypes are. I meant, the whole game is parody. C'mon "Claytality"? lol
it can be also a satire of fighting game tropes. i mean, how many times have we seen the japanese fighter wearing a gi and using karate? almost every major fighting game has one.
I doubt this character was intended to be a commentary on either negative asian stereotypes and the whole japanese fighter trope. Like the whole thing really is just playing up all the outdated yellowface tropes straight without any irony
@@crimsontide1980 tbh, you can't argue that this is a very racist character. Its just used as parody. But some people might not get that which I would understand especially if they themselves are Chinese or Chinese American. Especially for Chinese Americans who might have had to deal with racism i can get it.
What the fuck! Instead of like having Blue Seude Goo back in the game (the literal Elvis impersonator) and have Jeff Bennet voice him, they went with terrible asian stereotype? God, what a waste of a good actor allusion

As much as Kung Pow is a very funny character but I think Interplay had a missed opportunity to make a parody version of Ryu from the Street Fighter series.
Itty Bitty Lousy Lame Weak Dumb Little Girlie Cheesy Triple Brown Betty Queen Ludicrous Insane I think these are the names of the combos. (If I missed any, let me know.)
i got shown this game only recently and it's already one of my favorites. Hilarious to bits. "We've got to celebrate our differences" as the song says, since it's what makes life spicy and fun. Would you prefer karate man to speak in perfect english instead? or have everyone behave in accordance to English, christian customs only? ofc no
@@SimplySammyK yeah, the sculptors cut was a blockbuster exclusive cartridge that was never supposed to be sold. The ones that are out in the wild are ones that were probably either forgotten or stolen. Lol.
I don't want to sound mean but this game looks like someone simply took the snes version and pasted it in a 3d scenario, the physics are weird and the endings don't exist
RebelTaxi (Pan Pizza) was right this Kung Pow Guy is a Rasist character why didn't they add Hobo Cop in Clayfighter again? Also am I the only one who noticed that the screen looks Darker in this one?
@fantoniumnitrous yeah, but even at the time this game was pretty obscure and did not compete well with so many of its peers.

Literally the definition of "It was a different time. You gotta understand."
This game came out in 1997 & not the 30s, 40s or 50s but yes Kung Pow is those words in a nutshell you have a good point, Dope92.
You'll be saying that about yourself in 5 to 10 years!
I never played this back in the day, but I'm honestly surprised that Kung Pow got past without a word even back in the '90s.
@@Silanda Remember, some things that were said back in those days wouldn’t go well with some audiences these days.

I remembered playing this game. My brothers and I were laughing at "Pork fried rice!"

@@GoshDarnBarnOwls You're not a racist for creating a FICTION video game character.

Uncle Roger doesn't approve. 😅
...And they thought homeless RoboCop was offensive?
I think it was more of copyright infringement
Hobocop
I don't care what anyone says. Kung Pow was hilarious, and he was my main in the game.
I'd like to see this get released on Nintendo switch. Haven't played it in 20 years.
Patrick Dumas+ That would be dope

With the way the world is, I don't think Nintendo would re-release this.

No that was his cousin Sum Ting Wong.

Kung Pow serving Taffy make sense if you think about it he is considered food after all 😂
Considering he IS made of candy, it makes perfect sense. 😆
I did an insane combo with Kung Pow when I was fighting Frosty
"Fo heeya o thoo GO?!" SLICE!!!
Claytality!
Wen u don’t pay for the food
I love how this game have out such weird/creepy vibes when I was a kid lol
This was a good game. Forget the critics and the naysayers.
I like how when he gets hit chinese take-away boxes fly out. Not racist at all lol
Its not racist lol, just good comedy
I mean, every Asian restaurant in my town uses them so it just seems to be standard for a Asian-looking chef in a parody fighter.
@ He will forever be my favorite Clayfighter. Pork fried rice!
This game was literally a mix of Street fighter Mortal Kombat and Killer Instinct in my opinion.

You might be right actually. This is like something you would see in the GTA series when it comes to satire...
it can be also a satire of fighting game tropes. i mean, how many times have we seen the japanese fighter wearing a gi and using karate? almost every major fighting game has one.

Man, this was the Married with Children era of videogames.
PORK FRIED RICE!

Thank God this game wasn't made today, my God, the outrage
Sadly you speak the truth, so many sensitive people these days, everybody gets so offended lol
even today raging people would seethe at something remaking that.
ignoring them is the best thing ever to do, they want attention at any cost.
I thought the same when I saw that 'Litle Girlie Combo'.

When I was in high school, when he said this, I thought he said "BLOWS MY MIND!"
To this day i still i use this phrase: OHHH I LOVE IT!!!
And so many. Another one is SMELL THIS ACTION!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Good times!!
In clay figther scuptors cut there are some combos removed like this 3:27 from this game
You can do insane combos AND claytalities? This game did it all man.
It also had parry and combo breaker mechanics, too!
It's like killer instinct.
Footage of that first round alone would have this game canceled in 5 milliseconds in todays world.
"todays world" cant dictate whats wrong or right Freedom of Speech all the way!

Y'know what I find funny? Nobody knows Kung Pow is played by Jeff Bennett xD
Jeff Bennett’s voice role of Kung Pow would sure get him cancelled, and he also voiced Johnny Bravo.

Them size 30 feet of his and them size 15 hands
I remember playing this game as a really young kid and I thought this character was hilarious. Especially the poo-poo platter voiceline
I would have fever nightmares about this game..
A very bizarre and funny fighting game. I never understood why it was never ported to the Wii, Wii U and Switch.
The PC Police wouldn’t be cool with that
Rumor has it it actually was going to be ported to the wii and was going to be called clayfighter "call of putty". Ya this is a year old comment and I'm just responding to it now. Sry
3:10 "YOSUEEEEEEEE!"
He says “Chop suey!l
Kung-Pow is funny character.
Yeah his pose, his teeth and everything
As much as Kung Pow is a very funny character but I think Interplay had a missed opportunity to make a parody version of Ryu from the Street Fighter series.
Kung Pow even has a red alt. So yeah, there is a missed opportunity.
He was a parody of lui kang!
he does have some moves that resembles lui kang and ryu.

You kidding me! This came out back in the good ol' days of gaming
@fantoniumnitrous yeah, but even at the time this game was pretty obscure and did not compete well with so many of its peers.
