About this deal

The original punching-pad cabinet was not successful as Capcom had planned, with only around 1,000 units sold. However, the alternate six-button version was more successful, selling in the tens of thousands, with estimates ranging from between 10,000 and 50,000 units sold. [20] In Japan, Game Machine listed Street Fighter on its September 15, 1987, issue as the fifth-most-successful upright arcade unit of the month, [42] before reaching No. 3 in October 1987 and then No. 1 in January 1988. [20] It became Japan's fifth-highest-grossing large arcade game of 1987, [43] and the country's eighth-highest-grossing arcade game of 1988. [44] In the United Kingdom, the Coinslot charts, in the August 1988 issue of Sinclair User, listed Street Fighter as the top-grossing dedicated arcade game of the month. [45] It was not as successful in the United States, where it peaked at No. 10 on the RePlay upright cabinet chart in December 1987. [20] a b "Game Design Essentials: 20 Mysterious Games". Gamasutra. Archived from the original on October 5, 2008 . Retrieved October 12, 2008. Street Fighter was directed by Takashi Nishiyama, who conceived it by adapting the boss battles of his earlier beat 'em up game, Kung-Fu Master (1984), for a one-on-one fighting game, and by drawing influence from popular Japanese shōnen manga. A port for the PC Engine/TurboGrafx CD console was released as Fighting Street [b] in 1988, and was re-released for the Wii's Virtual Console in 2009. Hjorth, Larissa; Chan, Dean (2009-06-24). Gaming Cultures and Place in Asia-Pacific. Routledge. p.84. ISBN 978-1-135-84317-5. Takashi Nishiyama conceived Street Fighter after working on Irem's 1984 beat-em-up game Kung-Fu Master (called Spartan X in Japan), which has a number of boss fights; Nishiyama considered making a game centered around those boss fights. [20] In turn, the boss fights were inspired by the Bruce Lee film Game of Death (1972). [21] Following the success of Kung-Fu Master, Nishiyama was hired by Capcom. [22] He designed an arcade successor for Capcom, Trojan (1986), a beat-em-up which evolved the basic gameplay concepts of Kung-Fu Master; the NES port has a one-on-one fighting mode, for the first time in a Capcom game. [23] Nishiyama later designed Street Fighter. [22] The game was also influenced by the earlier fighting games Karate Champ (1984) and Yie Ar Kung-Fu (1984). [22] [24] The gameplay of Karate Champ, Kung-Fu Master and Yie Ar Kung Fu provided a basic template for Street Fighter. [25] [20] Nishiyama wanted the game to have a story similar to a film. [26]

The player takes control of a young Japanese martial artist named Ryu, who competes in the Street Fighter tournament to prove his strength, [10] and the second player takes control of Ryu's former partner and current rival Ken, who only jumps into the tournament unqualified to challenge Ryu in two-player matches. [11] Normally, the player takes control of Ryu in the single-player mode; however, if the player controlling Ken defeats Ryu in a 2-player match, the winning player will play the remainder of the game as Ken. The differences between the two characters are aesthetic, with the same basic moves and special techniques.Leone, Matt. "The Man Who Created Street Fighter". 1UP.com.
