Great work as always but for some more on the game's aesthetic: it's specifically a tribute to PRIDE Fight Championships, a mixed martial arts promotion that ran from 1997 until selling to UFC in 2007 after yakuza scandals and other issues. Gai Tendo is, as mentioned, a gigantic tribute to one of the biggest stars of Pride's history: Kazushi Sakuraba. His ascent to national hero status began after he locked Royler Gracie in a Kimura Lock at PRIDE 8, the first time a Gracie had fallen for that arm bar since Helio was caught by the move's inventor Masahiko Kimura in 1951. This kicked off an incredible feud with the entire family that culminated with moments such as him defeating Royce Gracie in a match that despite being a semi-final round in tournament was allowed to run with no time limit and went for 90 minutes. Sakuraba then fought like an hour later in his next round's match only for his body finally gave up for the night. Sakuraba would often describe his martial art as simply "Pro Wrestling". Against weaker opponents he manged to do crazy things like knock a guy out with a dropkick. He also once defeated an opponent with a full 20 pound weight advantage. It's frankly a miracle he can walk at all, let alone still work some pro wrestling matches in NOAH. A lot of sports fans like to talk about how their sport used to be better when they really just mean they want to be young again. For MMA there's a lot about the sport that genuinely was more exciting but with what we know now it would be grossly immoral to allow it to be run that way again.
this video deserves 1 million views for sure. this guy went out of his way to BUY THE ENTIRE PCB FOR US. MADE ARCADE STICKS. and even got a 90s TV. TH-camrs are really underappreciated man.
@@Ten_Thousand_Locusts a ton of work and time, the only push being himself. Quite time consuming, expensive, and difficult. But yea, better to shit on people who work stupid hard for your entertainment. Good job.
WIth this game in particular it's either that or extremely glitchy emulation... That said, kudos on getting the hardware and setup to get footage from it. The custom joysticks are a nice touch as well

Many years ago, I found a Buriki One cab in a random laundromat near my college campus and got to play it. A very unique experience. Thank you for covering this and giving props to the Hyper Neo Geo small but fun and fascinating fight game roster.
Always been a fan of the Baki aesthetic so seeing a fighting game that represents it so well is great to see. I would love to play such a innovative control gimmick.
Was thinking the exact thing. Even the red-haired Tendo character looks nearly identical to Baki's design. I guess the manga has been such an influence over its more than 30 year run!
@@alexg7352 baki's design is based on a real life guy named kazushi sakuraba who had dyed his hair red. Gai Tendo's design also comes from this version of kazushi sakursba.
@@vandagylon2885 So it's like the case of Bruce Lee and his homage fg chars. It's not that Law is based on Fei Long, rather both were based on a famous real life person. And there are many more Bruce Lee references in other fgs and other games and other forms of japanese media (like Kenshiro from the Hokuto no Ken anime) but it's not that the creators are exactly copying each other.
One of those videos where I feel compelled to thank the creator for sharing. You clearly went through a lot of time and expense to put this together and even brought it to a tournament so others could have a hands on experience with a rare and unique game.

I really like the innovations this game brought. This is also the first fighting game I have seen (except maybe the original Street Fighter 1 ) that doesn't have any female characters
My friend actually plays every fighting game this way. He didn’t grow up on controller from what I remember and moved with the arrow keys on keyboard. When I gave him my old stick he unscrewed the box to switch the horizontal and vertical directions of the stick so he could have the buttons on the left and stick on the right. I’ve seen him literally cross his hands at arcades so he can play the way he normally does. It’s a sight to behold
To be fair, your channel has always been a gem, but this time around, you have really gone above and beyond man! Either if this video blows up or it remains obscure, thank you for your commitment to the craft dude, the world needs more people like you!

What I always found interesting is how the stick-based attacks is technically a throwback to the pre-Street Fighter era. Not just Karate Champ but many Commodore 64 fighting games used stick-based attacking. Usually by having you hold the singular Atari joystick button to shift between movement and attacking. But of course SF2 comes out and everyone completely abandons that. So it was cool to see SNK bring it back and evolve it. REALLY wanna play this sometime so fingers crossed we one day get some Hyper Neo Geo 64 releases. Especially because I hear good things about SamSho 64 but can barely remember playing it. I just know the PS1 game is a completely different game from the arcade one.
Well to be fair there it was a necessity not a feature. All home computers only had one button so they had to find solutions or else all characters would only have one attack and nothing else.

Also I feel like it's worth to mention that besides Gai and Sil(v)ber being playable in KOF XI, Mr Karate II Ryo is playable in Neo Geo Battle Coliseum, plus he and Gai have special moves/supers which require non-standard movements to execute, as a reference to their Buriki One versions =)

Something tells Me the sponsorships would hold this back from getting included in a NG64 collection. Not to say they couldn't just take them out and replace them with some generic in-universe sponsorships, but that would require more effort than a straight port, and I don't see them caring enough.
Buriki one is probably one of snk's craziest, most innovative fighting games Wish I could properly play it on modern hardware, the emulation just isn't good enough yet Thanks for showing some new light on this game!

Amazing work! I wish I could try this game out, it definitely deserves to be re-released! I recently found out about the game after analyzing kof'99 and seeing that the updated version (kof'99 evolution) got Gai Tendo as a striker, so I wanted to know more about him and the game he's from, thanks to you, I got the perfect video to explain his character and the game
EDIT: Just got to the part where you actually got to show the real arcade PCB/hardware (used for recording footage) and even custom controllers for the game; you absolute madman this is golden content You have quickly become one of my favorite channels to watch ever; its the perfect dose of attention to detail with covering games...and that many of the fighting games you cover are quirky or obscure but you still cover them with the best you can do, which is really awesome (and I always have a soft spot for oddities like these)! It would be great if Buriki One was ported to modern platforms or at least that the Hyper Neo Geo 64 emulation improved to have fully functional sound and no graphical glitches...but at least the fact that its emulated and playable to an extent already is quite the miracle.
Thanks for making this video. I got to play this back in 2003 at an anime convention, and was super impressed with it. Never knew what it was called though, so I’m happy to finally find out.
You really went all out to do this. Super appreciated being a hardcore SNK fan. Made me realize how unique SNK was and still is imo. I reaally do hope SNK remakes or ports this game some how. Maybe some if not all their Hyper 64 titles.
SNK was one of the few companies of that era that respected their fans. Never been a SNK fan myself, but I really admire that they went against what a lot of companies did back then and had an official presence here in Brazil.
SNK was an extremely prodigious fg company in the classic era, in some aspects the best fg company that ever existed... but nowadays it's nothing like what it was.
The fact that the buttons make the characters move kind of reminds me of Pac-land It would be cool to see Gai in KOF again, obviously voiced by Nobuyuki Hiyama
@@JotakuJo Sadly SNK is a decadent fg company in technical capacity, resources and creativity. Look how the best they can make nowadays are semi 3d remakes of classic fgs, titles that are completely relying on late 90s ideas without any modern addition, unlike the recent SF, GG, MK games, etc. I'm a big SNK fan (or rather the old SNK) but I'm not expecting any innovation from them in the current fg era.
Buriki ONE content, we thriving. I'm super glad to see something like this about the game. It's so cool and unique! It was a game that really dedicated itself to its aesthetic. A cool detail is that the old website maintains an illusion of a real event, with interviews with each character and so on.
It's something I wanted to cover but felt that the video was too long! I love all of the Buriki Girl interviews and what not. SNK knows how to do world building so well
@@GuileWinQuote Yeah, they're top-notch at it. I've been translating a bunch of the website, it's super interesting to see what the characters are all about.
I wonder if this was the first game to do the whole "fight with the control stick" thing. We've seen it in beat em up style games like Rise To Honor, Grabbed By The Ghoulies, and Death By Degrees, but those all came out years after Buriki. This is a truly impressive and revolutionary title

This doc is pretty impressive on how much time you put into breaking it down. Again, nicely done and hope you do more in the future for CPS1, 2, and 3 systems!
Way more games should have a Traditional Greco Roman wrestling character. Especially 3d ones, Judo practitioners probably feel really cool playing a judo character like Goh or Daimon and see them do things they did in real life (although extremely exaggerated in Daimon's case) and i want that feeling as well being somebody who really loved wrestling in high school. Game has always looked super cool and probably the best one on that hardware, would love to play it sometime.
That's Freestyle wrestling - Greco-Roman is actually a totally different type of wrestling. The most notable difference is Greco-Roman bars holds below the waist, so you wouldn't see any of the double leg takedowns that are so emblematic of Freestyle wrestling.

Thanks, I've been waiting for a look at the game like you just gave for about two decades. Your capture footage was great and you nailed it with the inspirations and boiling down the characters.
Best Buriki One video I've seen, really went beyond by making accurate controllers! And I agree with what you said at the end. Seeing how SNK is always proud of their legacy titles and often make collections and ports, I've hoped SNK had ported the Hyper Neo Geo 64 games by now. I'm sure it's possible to play the game using the right analog for attacks on standard controllers in all main systems.
The problem is that these games werent popular, unlike the 2d games, and the HNG64 was a big failure. So it's hard to expect a retro release these days.
@@carlosaugusto9821 many arcade games that weren't that popular still find their place on many collections, including SNK's own stuff like their NeoGeo X and NeoGeo Mini arcades. SNK sometimes are weird cuz they even ignore some popular stuff but were somewhat unique, like Samurai Shodown 6 and KoF NeoWave that were on Atomiswave and took a while to get their ports though they had a couple on PS2 and PS4 (SamSho 6 was also ported with considerable compromise on the PSP edition ot SamSho Anthology). I think it's more probable that SNK themselves have problems comming up with a software solution to port the Hyper NeoGeo 64 games more than anything else.
Awesome video! What a neat game with super unique style, I like how the fighters are labeled by style and not just their names. Not to mention your commitment to playing the game the best way possible, that's pretty awesome! I'm sure finding that board and PCB was a challenge, let alone getting them to work, and capturing them! Super impressive. Your presentation is also great, I find a lot of FG channels difficult to get into and sometimes impenetrable with all the jargon and tech, especially as someone new to the genre, but your laid back commentary and humour was a treat! Your sub count is criminal, and should totally be higher! Consider me a subscriber and a fan.
Okay. So this is where the KOF 11 character Gai Tendo comes from with the red hair and MMA trunks. He was weird too because his moves comboed with D pad presses! So it makes TOTAL sense why.
I remember playing Fight Night: Round 4 when I first got a PS3 and was really intrigued by its control scheme of using the right stick to attack, simulating the slight differences in each punch. I wondered if that kind of control scheme was used in any other games - and lo and behold! I love these kinds of experimental control schemes with a good amount of thought behind them!
I love GuileWinQuote's videos. The way that he does in depth looks at fighting games that dont usually get much attention , shows an admirable level of passion . This video in particular highlights that passion - in it, the dude not only analyses a game thats famously difficult to emulate , but he also builds joysticks out of friggin tupper wear just to play it . Great stuff man, keep it up.
Still super surprised your channel hasn't blown up yet. I know that isn't always the goal, but your content is thorough and well-delivered so I would think it should be more popular in the FGC at least.
About a week ago, I jokingly criticized Zedrin's animated short "Gamer Mouse that Trash Talks Your Fighting Game Skills" for having the arcade stick on the wrong side. I guess I should go back and edit my comment.
Such an interesting game! Also, your dedication to seek out physical Buriki One hardware and turning tupperware into playable arcade sticks JUST to play this game is amazing
Thanks for making this video! I'm glad you shared Buriki with us because I think it looks amazing and full of potential due to its unconventional, yet seemingly intuitive control scheme. I've always thought about how jarring it can be in traditional fighting games to control your character and perform motions on the same stick. This game solves that problem by keeping movement and attack options separate which eliminates awkward intersections where you want to move but also buffer an input for a special move. It would be nice to try this game.
Excellent video, I've only really given time to Buriki One via the currently imperfect emulation and it does feel quite fun to play. Really would love a modern re-release. Your dedication to a. Getting a board, and b. making a controller to match the layout, is most appreciated. This was really good! An aside, Ivan and Xuandao seem to be quite popular picks if the Mikado videos are anything to go by. And Heyting too! Also, Ryo in Neogeo Battle Coliseum is a mix of him as Mr. Karate, and Buriki Ryo (down to his alternate Ryuko Ranbu super having the joystick inputs very similar to how you do it in B1)
I do like how they made the Aikido and Judo characters play. You aren't supposed to just do a random technique in Aikido, you do gotta react to what your opponent does! While in Judo this is a bit different as you can blindly do a combination of throws and it may work, but that would be against not so skilled grapplers, a good Judoka will totally counter them or just shut down your attempt
Ive been a fan of fighting games since the 90s and been following and re playing them in emulators. 20 years later and when I believe Ive seen and played them all, I STILL found new ones! Amazing! thank you
Great video! Really appreciate how deep you went for this, especially getting all the original hardware and making new sticks AND even demoing it at tournaments. Really spreading the gospel and opening eyes for this game! I didn't know anything about it but after watching your video, now I really want to play it. The idea of using a stick for attacks makes so much sense and feels so fluid and is so ahead of its time, considering how we have options like that now with the right analog stick. The entire video, I was imagining how this could be ported to modern systems, and I can't really settle on how to do the left two button movement well. I guess it'd have to be the L triggers? Still not as elegant as two buttons though. Anyway, many thanks for making this! I will also spread the gospel of Buriki-One now
The mechanics to this fighting game are interesting and i would like to see a modern day fighting game implement this center of gravity gauge with the vitality for health. It seems like a fun idea.
Wow kudos on creating your own Buriki One joysticks hahaha. One aspect I would have stressed on a bit more is the unique "center of gravity" gauge at the bottom of the screen. A really interesting idea for a realistic fighting game. Jacques is based on real life judoka David Douillet, by the way.
Thanks for this showcase, it was really cool to see this game running properly! It's a shame that out of all the HNG64 games, Buriki One is by far the least playable in MAME. Hopefully that changes in the near future. From what little tournament footage I've seen Ryo seems completely busted. Aside from a few of the strikers, most characters in this game seem to lack combos entirely, meanwhile Ryo can do this crazy 6 or 7-hit string that starts from a pretty fast attack and takes off like 40%. Maybe since it's a niche game most people, even the ones entering these tournaments, don't know how to play the rest of the cast, but most brackets I've seen had >50% Ryo players.
That's probably the Ryuko Ranbu?, i remember the Buriki version doing less hits than the traditional one due to each attack being a manual input, its also one of Ryo's supers in NGBC, which he appears as his Buriki One self, Mr Karate II
@@tedjomuljono3052 It's 8 hits, but you actually only need to do around 4~6 hits since it would end safely if they block. I once read a Buriki ONE movelist thread and there's a guy said "Forget everything about Ryo, you only need to know how to do this move, it's worth more than everything else in his move list". He's definitely top tier in this game, though I think Rob Python and Ivan Sokolov could challenge him for the top 1 spot.
I'm glad I finally got to see this game... like, at all. This was by far the most obscure fighting game on the most obscure system with the most obscure control scheme and fighting system. Heck, the only reason I knew it ever existed were some old Samurai Shodown 64 discussions. If it made it to Hawaii, it would've been almost completely ignored for two months and then buried forever. There is zero chance we could've ever adjusted to that control scheme.
Always knew of this game through kof 11. Awesome to actually get a good look into it. Thanks for this. Also, Wild Ambition is such a good time. Tried out the PlayStation port back in the day and got way more into it than I expected. Another great game that not enough people have played.
And playing Wild Ambition includes the bonus of finding that Capcom stole the Ryo design for Ken in SF5. (Though I understand if one argues that Capcom is just paying back for AOF)
@@otaking3582 They tried to give Matrimelee a modern release for the Power Instinct 30th Anniversary but Atlus denied them and said that it was too offensive for the modern day. To quote the Siliconera article: "Chuuko had sent petitions to the series’ rights holder since November 2021. However, the holder rejected it because one of the series characters would have a high risk of triggering litigation related to political correctness. After the first refusal, Chuuko suggested releasing the Power Instinct title by excluding the controversial character. The rights holder still refused the proposal, citing a change in trends of the era and the difficulty in re-releasing past games."
@@GELTONZ He is talking about the baby character if this isn't specific to Matrimelee. He was even controversial when the game was first released. That is the problem with the mainstream: too inconsistent and closed minded. At least we have alternate ways of playing it.
Damn. This game really put a lot of effort on realistic combat and techniques as well as how the fighting styles are portrayed. The incorporation of center of gravity and real tournament rules to decide who wins (landed strikes, grapples etc) is really an awsome gimmick. And it also feels a lot like Bakis Maximum Tournament and the very first UFC tournaments.
My goodness dude you are awesome! Your dedication to this stuff is inspiring! I'm bout to go play some fight games! Of course after finishing the video!
Outstanding work, i guess i didnt realize how annoying the game was for arcade owners back then until now, on top of being a NG64 title, due to the reverse controls Also, Gai appeared as a striker in KOF2000, which is probably his earliest entry in KOF/other games as a gameplay element
Hey this video really got me back into SNK titles and after watching and this video and then playing KOF XI Gai Tendo is my favourite fighting game character in SNK now! I made my own version in SF6 too which turned out pretty awesome if I say so myself! I’m hoping to give Buriki One a shot emulated too! Nice video and I hope to see more as well!
I feel like I have a thing or two about Buriki One's entire presentation in contrast to conventional fighting games. It is a tournament but unlike most fighting games it's presented like a real-life tournament, and it's got interesting character line-ups too. I did browse a playthrough for this game years ago out of curiosity and surprised that there's Ryo Sakazaki in it, but what caught me off guard is Silber's presentation when the player were about to do the final fight. The interviews after you complete the game is a nice touch too. The fact that you actually emulated the _whole_ experience of the game is amazing. I know that the controls are quite different in contrast to most games in the genre, but the way that you presented it gives a clearer picture of what kind of experience you'd get when playing this game. I never played this game before, but if anyone sets a cab of this game, I'd be down!
My gosh... congrats on your marvelous job, such passion for fighting games, a super dedication, and a professional video. Never heard of you or your channel, but this is one of that "found some gold on YT ocean of trash" moments. You got a new sub, dude!
I've seen these characters in a mugen I love THEY'RE SO FUN buriki keeps his playstyle having a choice rekka feel which I mean that's a great transition into a 2d kof style play
I've always been interested in the idea of using the stick to attack in fighting games, especially considering it's what I use when playing Smash Bros. I remember brainstorming a similar idea could be used to try and make a fighting game that would be intuitive for touchscreen mobile devices some years back; it's pretty interesting to see a game I've never heard of using basically the same concept I thought I came up with years beforehand
"Move with buttons and attack with stick" has been in my list of stoned ideas for years. Of course it has already been done! My idea was to use a controller. L, R as left/right and attack with both thumbsticks.
Doesn't one of the _Fight Night_ games work in a similar way? Perhaps I'm completely misremembering, but I do recall playing a UFC-style game where you attacked with the stick.
@@BknMoonStudios yes! I believe you could also set your controller for that in the old (and good) ufc games. Left stick would still move your character around though in the fight night/ufc games as opposed to buttons. I remember in fight night that taping forward on the right stick would be a jab while diagonal toward and rolling it up would do an uppercut and so forth while holding the triggers and doing the inputs would do different punches or aim for the body. I always wished those games would have become competitive fighting games, probably would need a remake without real world characters. Also loved the old ufc games way of ground grappling with moving the right stick, if you wanted to advance to guard or take mount you could roll the right stick in the direction of how you want to attempt to advance and which side.
Many different ideas, including wild ones, were tried in the fg genre in the 90s and 00s. If you got one idea in your head that you haven't seen in a mainstream fg, don't jump to the conclusion it wasn't ever tried before. Probably it's just an abandoned idea that never returned or an idea from a smaller fg. Don't doubt the creativity in the 90s fg scene, because it was unparalleled in the whole gaming world around that time.
My guy! You are such a smart and a very knowledgeable person! You’re ability to be able to put everything together to make this video game work and playable is already dope af!
Great work as always but for some more on the game's aesthetic: it's specifically a tribute to PRIDE Fight Championships, a mixed martial arts promotion that ran from 1997 until selling to UFC in 2007 after yakuza scandals and other issues.
Gai Tendo is, as mentioned, a gigantic tribute to one of the biggest stars of Pride's history: Kazushi Sakuraba. His ascent to national hero status began after he locked Royler Gracie in a Kimura Lock at PRIDE 8, the first time a Gracie had fallen for that arm bar since Helio was caught by the move's inventor Masahiko Kimura in 1951. This kicked off an incredible feud with the entire family that culminated with moments such as him defeating Royce Gracie in a match that despite being a semi-final round in tournament was allowed to run with no time limit and went for 90 minutes. Sakuraba then fought like an hour later in his next round's match only for his body finally gave up for the night.
Sakuraba would often describe his martial art as simply "Pro Wrestling". Against weaker opponents he manged to do crazy things like knock a guy out with a dropkick. He also once defeated an opponent with a full 20 pound weight advantage. It's frankly a miracle he can walk at all, let alone still work some pro wrestling matches in NOAH.
A lot of sports fans like to talk about how their sport used to be better when they really just mean they want to be young again. For MMA there's a lot about the sport that genuinely was more exciting but with what we know now it would be grossly immoral to allow it to be run that way again.
You're quite cultured I see.
Got a real question though: Is the character Ducalis based on Judo champ Terry Riner? What you think?
@Huge Jackedman No, the game is way too old for that. Teddy Riner was 10 years old in 1999.

Many years ago, I found a Buriki One cab in a random laundromat near my college campus and got to play it. A very unique experience. Thank you for covering this and giving props to the Hyper Neo Geo small but fun and fascinating fight game roster.
Old boy built his own controller, just to play the game properly. Now THAT is dedication to the craft
Very cool of you honestly to put so much effort into playing and showcasing this game in the best way possible
Always been a fan of the Baki aesthetic so seeing a fighting game that represents it so well is great to see. I would love to play such a innovative control gimmick.
Was thinking the exact thing. Even the red-haired Tendo character looks nearly identical to Baki's design. I guess the manga has been such an influence over its more than 30 year run!
It isn't a gimmick more so than just an experement to switch things up
@@alexg7352 baki's design is based on a real life guy named kazushi sakuraba who had dyed his hair red. Gai Tendo's design also comes from this version of kazushi sakursba.
@@vandagylon2885 wow. Didn't know that. That's dope
@@vandagylon2885 So it's like the case of Bruce Lee and his homage fg chars. It's not that Law is based on Fei Long, rather both were based on a famous real life person. And there are many more Bruce Lee references in other fgs and other games and other forms of japanese media (like Kenshiro from the Hokuto no Ken anime) but it's not that the creators are exactly copying each other.
One of those videos where I feel compelled to thank the creator for sharing. You clearly went through a lot of time and expense to put this together and even brought it to a tournament so others could have a hands on experience with a rare and unique game.

This is super interesting. Thanks for introducing this to us who would have otherwise probably never known about.
I really like the innovations this game brought. This is also the first fighting game I have seen (except maybe the original Street Fighter 1 ) that doesn't have any female characters
Indeed.
My friend actually plays every fighting game this way. He didn’t grow up on controller from what I remember and moved with the arrow keys on keyboard. When I gave him my old stick he unscrewed the box to switch the horizontal and vertical directions of the stick so he could have the buttons on the left and stick on the right. I’ve seen him literally cross his hands at arcades so he can play the way he normally does. It’s a sight to behold
A lot folks play the way 😅
Now THIS is a TH-camr who put in some work.

Your commitment into getting the game, then recreating arcade experience is really impressive.
What I always found interesting is how the stick-based attacks is technically a throwback to the pre-Street Fighter era. Not just Karate Champ but many Commodore 64 fighting games used stick-based attacking. Usually by having you hold the singular Atari joystick button to shift between movement and attacking. But of course SF2 comes out and everyone completely abandons that. So it was cool to see SNK bring it back and evolve it. REALLY wanna play this sometime so fingers crossed we one day get some Hyper Neo Geo 64 releases.
Especially because I hear good things about SamSho 64 but can barely remember playing it. I just know the PS1 game is a completely different game from the arcade one.
Body Blows is another game that uses it.
Well to be fair there it was a necessity not a feature. All home computers only had one button so they had to find solutions or else all characters would only have one attack and nothing else.

Also I feel like it's worth to mention that besides Gai and Sil(v)ber being playable in KOF XI, Mr Karate II Ryo is playable in Neo Geo Battle Coliseum, plus he and Gai have special moves/supers which require non-standard movements to execute, as a reference to their Buriki One versions =)

Something tells Me the sponsorships would hold this back from getting included in a NG64 collection. Not to say they couldn't just take them out and replace them with some generic in-universe sponsorships, but that would require more effort than a straight port, and I don't see them caring enough.
That's something so obvious that I hadn't considered 🤔
You're probably right... :(
Buriki one is probably one of snk's craziest, most innovative fighting games
Wish I could properly play it on modern hardware, the emulation just isn't good enough yet
Thanks for showing some new light on this game!
The fact that you took the time and effort to make the whole setup and brought it to Texas Showdown for other people to experience is amazing.

Amazing work! I wish I could try this game out, it definitely deserves to be re-released! I recently found out about the game after analyzing kof'99 and seeing that the updated version (kof'99 evolution) got Gai Tendo as a striker, so I wanted to know more about him and the game he's from, thanks to you, I got the perfect video to explain his character and the game
the best niche youtuber responds to another really good youtuber lol
EDIT: Just got to the part where you actually got to show the real arcade PCB/hardware (used for recording footage) and even custom controllers for the game; you absolute madman this is golden content
You have quickly become one of my favorite channels to watch ever; its the perfect dose of attention to detail with covering games...and that many of the fighting games you cover are quirky or obscure but you still cover them with the best you can do, which is really awesome (and I always have a soft spot for oddities like these)! It would be great if Buriki One was ported to modern platforms or at least that the Hyper Neo Geo 64 emulation improved to have fully functional sound and no graphical glitches...but at least the fact that its emulated and playable to an extent already is quite the miracle.
Thanks for making this video. I got to play this back in 2003 at an anime convention, and was super impressed with it. Never knew what it was called though, so I’m happy to finally find out.
You really went all out to do this. Super appreciated being a hardcore SNK fan. Made me realize how unique SNK was and still is imo. I reaally do hope SNK remakes or ports this game some how. Maybe some if not all their Hyper 64 titles.
SNK was one of the few companies of that era that respected their fans. Never been a SNK fan myself, but I really admire that they went against what a lot of companies did back then and had an official presence here in Brazil.
SNK was an extremely prodigious fg company in the classic era, in some aspects the best fg company that ever existed... but nowadays it's nothing like what it was.
Don't SNK just make microchips now?
Finally! A new video from one of my favorite FG youtubers!
Thank you for checking my stuff out! 🙏
Cool to see the dedication put towards making this video the best it can be.
This channel truly is a gem
The fact that the buttons make the characters move kind of reminds me of Pac-land
It would be cool to see Gai in KOF again, obviously voiced by Nobuyuki Hiyama
I’m very impressed with the effort you put into playing this authentically, this is a very interesting and unique game
One of the greatest unknown gems of SNK's fighting game catalogue.
The game was way ahead of it's time I appreciate your dedication to show us this gem
This is amazing. Would love to see a game like this come to PS5/Xbox and PC. Hopefully SNK brings this back.
With how popular MMA is now it'll be a shame not to capitalise on a sequel.
@@JotakuJo Sadly SNK is a decadent fg company in technical capacity, resources and creativity. Look how the best they can make nowadays are semi 3d remakes of classic fgs, titles that are completely relying on late 90s ideas without any modern addition, unlike the recent SF, GG, MK games, etc. I'm a big SNK fan (or rather the old SNK) but I'm not expecting any innovation from them in the current fg era.
- 'ey mate! Can we play some buriki one?
- Sure.
Buriki ONE content, we thriving. I'm super glad to see something like this about the game. It's so cool and unique! It was a game that really dedicated itself to its aesthetic. A cool detail is that the old website maintains an illusion of a real event, with interviews with each character and so on.
It's something I wanted to cover but felt that the video was too long!
I love all of the Buriki Girl interviews and what not. SNK knows how to do world building so well
@@GuileWinQuote Yeah, they're top-notch at it. I've been translating a bunch of the website, it's super interesting to see what the characters are all about.
I wonder if this was the first game to do the whole "fight with the control stick" thing. We've seen it in beat em up style games like Rise To Honor, Grabbed By The Ghoulies, and Death By Degrees, but those all came out years after Buriki. This is a truly impressive and revolutionary title
Karate Champ was the first, but this is a great take on the concept by SNK.

Again, nicely done and hope you do more in the future for CPS1, 2, and 3 systems!
Incredible effort for this video. Good job!
Way more games should have a Traditional Greco Roman wrestling character. Especially 3d ones, Judo practitioners probably feel really cool playing a judo character like Goh or Daimon and see them do things they did in real life (although extremely exaggerated in Daimon's case) and i want that feeling as well being somebody who really loved wrestling in high school. Game has always looked super cool and probably the best one on that hardware, would love to play it sometime.
Jeffry from virtua fighter use pancration
@@RECHOOSENONE Wrestling is only a part of pankration though, it is def cool but that fighting style is really only used in slavic country's now
Yeah, seems rare as hell to get a character that tries to recreate real wrestling rather than “pro” wrestling
That's Freestyle wrestling - Greco-Roman is actually a totally different type of wrestling. The most notable difference is Greco-Roman bars holds below the waist, so you wouldn't see any of the double leg takedowns that are so emblematic of Freestyle wrestling.

Thanks, I've been waiting for a look at the game like you just gave for about two decades. Your capture footage was great and you nailed it with the inspirations and boiling down the characters.
Best Buriki One video I've seen, really went beyond by making accurate controllers!
And I agree with what you said at the end. Seeing how SNK is always proud of their legacy titles and often make collections and ports, I've hoped SNK had ported the Hyper Neo Geo 64 games by now. I'm sure it's possible to play the game using the right analog for attacks on standard controllers in all main systems.
The problem is that these games werent popular, unlike the 2d games, and the HNG64 was a big failure. So it's hard to expect a retro release these days.
@@carlosaugusto9821 many arcade games that weren't that popular still find their place on many collections, including SNK's own stuff like their NeoGeo X and NeoGeo Mini arcades.
SNK sometimes are weird cuz they even ignore some popular stuff but were somewhat unique, like Samurai Shodown 6 and KoF NeoWave that were on Atomiswave and took a while to get their ports though they had a couple on PS2 and PS4 (SamSho 6 was also ported with considerable compromise on the PSP edition ot SamSho Anthology). I think it's more probable that SNK themselves have problems comming up with a software solution to port the Hyper NeoGeo 64 games more than anything else.
No great video, didnt knew your channel but im starting a marathon of all your content right now.
I hope you get big dude.
Thank you!! Just hoping I can spread the gospel of fighting games :^)
Way to find something that truly hasn't been explored and the artwork for this game is out of this world
This was legitimately one of my most favorite videos even though it came out less than a week ago. Well done, dude!
I love the passion put into going all out to showcase this fighter.
Awesome video! What a neat game with super unique style, I like how the fighters are labeled by style and not just their names. Not to mention your commitment to playing the game the best way possible, that's pretty awesome! I'm sure finding that board and PCB was a challenge, let alone getting them to work, and capturing them! Super impressive. Your presentation is also great, I find a lot of FG channels difficult to get into and sometimes impenetrable with all the jargon and tech, especially as someone new to the genre, but your laid back commentary and humour was a treat! Your sub count is criminal, and should totally be higher! Consider me a subscriber and a fan.
Thank you 🙇🏼🙇🏼
My goal is to make fighting game videos that anyone at any skill level can appreciate, I'm glad that I'm holding up to that!
Okay.
So this is where the KOF 11 character Gai Tendo comes from with the red hair and MMA trunks. He was weird too because his moves comboed with D pad presses! So it makes TOTAL sense why.
I remember playing Fight Night: Round 4 when I first got a PS3 and was really intrigued by its control scheme of using the right stick to attack, simulating the slight differences in each punch. I wondered if that kind of control scheme was used in any other games - and lo and behold! I love these kinds of experimental control schemes with a good amount of thought behind them!
I love GuileWinQuote's videos. The way that he does in depth looks at fighting games that dont usually get much attention , shows an admirable level of passion . This video in particular highlights that passion - in it, the dude not only analyses a game thats famously difficult to emulate , but he also builds joysticks out of friggin tupper wear just to play it . Great stuff man, keep it up.
Big respect for giving Street Fighter Ex the props it deserves !! I never understood the hate that some TH-camrs throw its way.
Still super surprised your channel hasn't blown up yet. I know that isn't always the goal, but your content is thorough and well-delivered so I would think it should be more popular in the FGC at least.

About a week ago, I jokingly criticized Zedrin's animated short "Gamer Mouse that Trash Talks Your Fighting Game Skills" for having the arcade stick on the wrong side.
I guess I should go back and edit my comment.
your Athena visual novel video is my favorite, I hope you make something similar soon and thanks for the hard work
I got some ideas, those videos just take a bit longer to do than others but there will be more! There are tons of weird fighting game spin offs
You put so much work into making this video thank you so very much
Such an interesting game! Also, your dedication to seek out physical Buriki One hardware and turning tupperware into playable arcade sticks JUST to play this game is amazing
interesting topic, somehow never heard of this one. no clickbait title. real effort behind everything. subscribed and liked
Thank you for giving it a chance!
Thanks for making this video! I'm glad you shared Buriki with us because I think it looks amazing and full of potential due to its unconventional, yet seemingly intuitive control scheme. I've always thought about how jarring it can be in traditional fighting games to control your character and perform motions on the same stick. This game solves that problem by keeping movement and attack options separate which eliminates awkward intersections where you want to move but also buffer an input for a special move. It would be nice to try this game.
Excellent video, I've only really given time to Buriki One via the currently imperfect emulation and it does feel quite fun to play. Really would love a modern re-release.
Your dedication to a. Getting a board, and b. making a controller to match the layout, is most appreciated. This was really good!
An aside, Ivan and Xuandao seem to be quite popular picks if the Mikado videos are anything to go by. And Heyting too!
Also, Ryo in Neogeo Battle Coliseum is a mix of him as Mr. Karate, and Buriki Ryo (down to his alternate Ryuko Ranbu super having the joystick inputs very similar to how you do it in B1)
Like for that Tienshihan portrait, everyone should have one of those.
It blesses my house 🫡
Damn, incredible work ! Thank you for going so far in recreating the ability to play this game. It was a really interesting video
Your content is so unique and compelling. This stuff is awesome!
Thank you for watching!!! 🙇🏼🙇🏼
Mad respect and props for how far you went for this video and for those to enjoy the game at Texas Shodown
I do like how they made the Aikido and Judo characters play. You aren't supposed to just do a random technique in Aikido, you do gotta react to what your opponent does! While in Judo this is a bit different as you can blindly do a combination of throws and it may work, but that would be against not so skilled grapplers, a good Judoka will totally counter them or just shut down your attempt
Ive been a fan of fighting games since the 90s and been following and re playing them in emulators. 20 years later and when I believe Ive seen and played them all, I STILL found new ones! Amazing! thank you
I love watching footage of matches for this game, wish I could play it some day, cool that you found a working board!
I totally got to respect your dedication by hopping through so many hoops to play this classic. Great video.
Great video! Really appreciate how deep you went for this, especially getting all the original hardware and making new sticks AND even demoing it at tournaments. Really spreading the gospel and opening eyes for this game!
I didn't know anything about it but after watching your video, now I really want to play it. The idea of using a stick for attacks makes so much sense and feels so fluid and is so ahead of its time, considering how we have options like that now with the right analog stick. The entire video, I was imagining how this could be ported to modern systems, and I can't really settle on how to do the left two button movement well. I guess it'd have to be the L triggers? Still not as elegant as two buttons though.
Anyway, many thanks for making this! I will also spread the gospel of Buriki-One now
rare to learn about a new game (that deserves to be recognized i mean). subscribed, thanks
The mechanics to this fighting game are interesting and i would like to see a modern day fighting game implement this center of gravity gauge with the vitality for health. It seems like a fun idea.
This is why I love your channel, your dedication should be praised.
Wow kudos on creating your own Buriki One joysticks hahaha. One aspect I would have stressed on a bit more is the unique "center of gravity" gauge at the bottom of the screen. A really interesting idea for a realistic fighting game. Jacques is based on real life judoka David Douillet, by the way.
Thanks for this showcase, it was really cool to see this game running properly! It's a shame that out of all the HNG64 games, Buriki One is by far the least playable in MAME. Hopefully that changes in the near future.
From what little tournament footage I've seen Ryo seems completely busted. Aside from a few of the strikers, most characters in this game seem to lack combos entirely, meanwhile Ryo can do this crazy 6 or 7-hit string that starts from a pretty fast attack and takes off like 40%.
Maybe since it's a niche game most people, even the ones entering these tournaments, don't know how to play the rest of the cast, but most brackets I've seen had >50% Ryo players.
He's definitely one of the easiest, which is probably for the best since he's a recognizable face!
That's probably the Ryuko Ranbu?, i remember the Buriki version doing less hits than the traditional one due to each attack being a manual input, its also one of Ryo's supers in NGBC, which he appears as his Buriki One self, Mr Karate II
@@tedjomuljono3052 It's 8 hits, but you actually only need to do around 4~6 hits since it would end safely if they block. I once read a Buriki ONE movelist thread and there's a guy said "Forget everything about Ryo, you only need to know how to do this move, it's worth more than everything else in his move list". He's definitely top tier in this game, though I think Rob Python and Ivan Sokolov could challenge him for the top 1 spot.
i love the mechanics of this game the recovering life and stance meter sound really fun to play around
I'm glad I finally got to see this game... like, at all. This was by far the most obscure fighting game on the most obscure system with the most obscure control scheme and fighting system. Heck, the only reason I knew it ever existed were some old Samurai Shodown 64 discussions.
If it made it to Hawaii, it would've been almost completely ignored for two months and then buried forever. There is zero chance we could've ever adjusted to that control scheme.
Always knew of this game through kof 11. Awesome to actually get a good look into it. Thanks for this.
Also, Wild Ambition is such a good time. Tried out the PlayStation port back in the day and got way more into it than I expected. Another great game that not enough people have played.
And playing Wild Ambition includes the bonus of finding that Capcom stole the Ryo design for Ken in SF5. (Though I understand if one argues that Capcom is just paying back for AOF)
Thank you for your content! This was a great informational video!!!

"Chuuko had sent petitions to the series’ rights holder since November 2021. However, the holder rejected it because one of the series characters would have a high risk of triggering litigation related to political correctness.
After the first refusal, Chuuko suggested releasing the Power Instinct title by excluding the controversial character. The rights holder still refused the proposal, citing a change in trends of the era and the difficulty in re-releasing past games."
@@GELTONZ He is talking about the baby character if this isn't specific to Matrimelee. He was even controversial when the game was first released. That is the problem with the mainstream: too inconsistent and closed minded. At least we have alternate ways of playing it.
@@GELTONZ Great, more proof that Atlus is run by SJW's and idiots...
@@otaking3582 We need Sonic Pocket Adventure back as well
Damn. This game really put a lot of effort on realistic combat and techniques as well as how the fighting styles are portrayed.
The incorporation of center of gravity and real tournament rules to decide who wins (landed strikes, grapples etc) is really an awsome gimmick. And it also feels a lot like Bakis Maximum Tournament and the very first UFC tournaments.
Great video! Forgot to add that Seo Yong is Kim Kaphwan star student
This is a awesome video. It’s amazing that he was able to put all that together to show us. Very impressive.
My goodness dude you are awesome! Your dedication to this stuff is inspiring! I'm bout to go play some fight games! Of course after finishing the video!
you are the goat man these videos are way too good
Thank you for checking my videos out!!!
man this game seems so interesting! really great video and props for buying the actual hardware to play this game. I hope I can try it one day!
This is the coolest fuckin thing ive seen on TH-cam in awhile!! Ive always wondered about the game those 2 random characters came from in KOF11.
Outstanding work, i guess i didnt realize how annoying the game was for arcade owners back then until now, on top of being a NG64 title, due to the reverse controls
Also, Gai appeared as a striker in KOF2000, which is probably his earliest entry in KOF/other games as a gameplay element
Hey this video really got me back into SNK titles and after watching and this video and then playing KOF XI Gai Tendo is my favourite fighting game character in SNK now! I made my own version in SF6 too which turned out pretty awesome if I say so myself! I’m hoping to give Buriki One a shot emulated too! Nice video and I hope to see more as well!
I Feel like I have gone Back in Time To an era Of The 90' Thank you for the video Dude It Was very educational 👍🏽⭐️👍🏽
Thank you for checking it out 🙇🏼🙇🏼
@@GuileWinQuote Your welcome
I feel like I have a thing or two about Buriki One's entire presentation in contrast to conventional fighting games. It is a tournament but unlike most fighting games it's presented like a real-life tournament, and it's got interesting character line-ups too. I did browse a playthrough for this game years ago out of curiosity and surprised that there's Ryo Sakazaki in it, but what caught me off guard is Silber's presentation when the player were about to do the final fight. The interviews after you complete the game is a nice touch too.
The fact that you actually emulated the _whole_ experience of the game is amazing. I know that the controls are quite different in contrast to most games in the genre, but the way that you presented it gives a clearer picture of what kind of experience you'd get when playing this game. I never played this game before, but if anyone sets a cab of this game, I'd be down!
VERY interesting concepts here. It could blow up now with the proper execution.
My gosh... congrats on your marvelous job, such passion for fighting games, a super dedication, and a professional video. Never heard of you or your channel, but this is one of that "found some gold on YT ocean of trash" moments. You got a new sub, dude!
Thanks for giving me a chance 🙇🏼🙇🏼🙇🏼
I've seen these characters in a mugen I love THEY'RE SO FUN buriki keeps his playstyle having a choice rekka feel which I mean that's a great transition into a 2d kof style play
Never heard of this before but I’m glad you made this video showcasing it.
Thanks for the video. Never heard of this game.
Came in expecting clickbait. Left positively stunned. Really put the work in on this gem.
Thank you for giving it a chance 🫡
I've always been interested in the idea of using the stick to attack in fighting games, especially considering it's what I use when playing Smash Bros. I remember brainstorming a similar idea could be used to try and make a fighting game that would be intuitive for touchscreen mobile devices some years back; it's pretty interesting to see a game I've never heard of using basically the same concept I thought I came up with years beforehand
2:27 Preciate the props you are giving street fighter ex plus alpha, I don't get how these popular TH-camrs hate it.
"Move with buttons and attack with stick" has been in my list of stoned ideas for years. Of course it has already been done! My idea was to use a controller. L, R as left/right and attack with both thumbsticks.
Doesn't one of the _Fight Night_ games work in a similar way?
Perhaps I'm completely misremembering, but I do recall playing a UFC-style game where you attacked with the stick.
@@BknMoonStudios yes! I believe you could also set your controller for that in the old (and good) ufc games. Left stick would still move your character around though in the fight night/ufc games as opposed to buttons. I remember in fight night that taping forward on the right stick would be a jab while diagonal toward and rolling it up would do an uppercut and so forth while holding the triggers and doing the inputs would do different punches or aim for the body. I always wished those games would have become competitive fighting games, probably would need a remake without real world characters. Also loved the old ufc games way of ground grappling with moving the right stick, if you wanted to advance to guard or take mount you could roll the right stick in the direction of how you want to attempt to advance and which side.
Many different ideas, including wild ones, were tried in the fg genre in the 90s and 00s. If you got one idea in your head that you haven't seen in a mainstream fg, don't jump to the conclusion it wasn't ever tried before. Probably it's just an abandoned idea that never returned or an idea from a smaller fg. Don't doubt the creativity in the 90s fg scene, because it was unparalleled in the whole gaming world around that time.
My guy! You are such a smart and a very knowledgeable person! You’re ability to be able to put everything together to make this video game work and playable is already dope af!
