thekingof FIGHTERS 95 System: Game Boy (pocket, color, whatever) FAQ/Movelist ----+----+----+----+----+---- This FAQ belongs to 'mailto_xxx' and cannot be distributed nor published anywhere without my permission. If you wish to put this FAQ in your site e-mail the author of this FAQ at mailto_xxx@gamespotmail.com This FAQ is no way affiliated with Takara or the producers of the game. This FAQ was written with the sole purpose of having a great time playing the game. This FAQ may be found at gamefaqs.com ----+----+----+----+----+---- Table of content (1) Basic moves (a) Counters (b) "Maximum" (2) Game modes (3) Character's movelist (4) Secret characters (5) Ending ----+----+----+----+----+---- Basic moves 1. Normally in the arcade version there were 4 buttons. Weak punch, strong punch, weak kick, and strong kick. Since this is Game Boy, then Takara had to improvise and ended up giving us this: A button is for kicks, B button is for punch. But if you press a button once, you'll do a weak punch or kick. But if you press and hold the button the character will do a strong kick or punch. I guess this was the only way out for Takara if they wanted the game in Game Boy version. This can also be done when launching special moves like Hadokens and Shoryukens (sorry...wrong game). 2. Below the screen, you'll notice there is a special combo meter ala Street Fighter (also called "Mamimum") which can be done to use Super Attacks which do more damage than any normal attack. This game is so unique, that to charge this special meter you'll have to press A,B, and Down. But if you are one of those players who just like to attack, attack and attack and don't have time for this you can let your opponent kick your ass. So that every time you get hit, the special meter charges a little bit. You can also press select and make this special gauge shorter, but the shorter it is, the weaker the special attack will be. 3. Besides that type of attack there is one more attack which happens to be some sort of knockout punch (or kick). To do this move simply press Forward+A+B. To do this attack in the air, simply press A+B. 4. To move faster forward or backward press twice in the direction you want to move faster. 5. To grab or throw your opponent press forward+A or B near them. 6. Another basic move in the game is to Jump over fireballs. To do it, you must press or touch the directional button were you want to jump just a little bit. If you hold the directional then you'll do a normal jump. If this is to hard for you button smashers (you know who you are) then press A and B simultaniously. You character will avoid the fireball and counter attack. (a) COUNTER ATTACK The counter attack option here is really hard to do. Since the game is somewhat slow because It's gameboy...you must counter attack just in the right moment when your opponent is hitting you. You can counter attack even if your opponent is throwing multiple attacks. (b) "MAXIMUM" This is like a Street Fighter combo meter with the difference that you can do the special attack also when your life bar is in red (or for those of you who don't have game boy color, when you are about to die and have just a bit of energy left). Maximum attacks will be entitled with two **. ----+----+----+----+----+---- Game modes Single Play, and Team play. If you've played the arcade version you'll know what I'm talking (or better yet...writing about). If you haven't played an arcade version then go read another FAQ. There is also a V.s. mode but to play it you must have 2 Game boys connected each with 2 different KOF95 cartridges via Video Link. ----+----+----+----+----+---- Character's movelist (1) KYO KUSANAGI He is one of my favorites and possibly one of the best. He is very fast and should be no problem when trying to avoid attacks. I'd choose him over any of the bosses any day. - Hyakuhachishiki Yamibara = d, df, f+B - Hyakushiki Aniyaki = f, d, df+B - Hyakuichi Oborugruma = b, d, db+A - Niyakujunishiki Kototsukyo = f, df, d, db, d+A **Urahyakuhachishiki Orochinagi** = d, db, b, db, d, df, f+B (2) BENIMARU NIKAIDO If you press d+A Benimaru will attack with some sort of flying elbow which hits 4 or 3 times. If your opponent block you, then hit them again with one of your attacks or your Super Maximum. - Raijiken = f, d, df+B - Shinkukatategoma = f, df, d, db, b+A - Iashigeri = d, df, f+A - Hondousandange = d, df, f+A - Super Inatzuma Kick = d, u+A **Raikouken** = d, df, f, d, df+B (3) YURI SAKASAKI If you use her Hyakuretsubnyta with a weak kick, she won't do shit. But if you do it close to your opponent it will work. Why? Ask Takara. That's all I can tell you from Yuri. - Ko Hou Ken = d ,df, f+B - Sayfu = d, db, b+B - Hyakuretsubnyta = d, df, f+A - Yuri Chooapa = f, df, d, db, b+B - Houshioukouken = f,d, df+B **Hienhooukoken** = f, b, f, df, d, db, b+A (4) HEINDERN This guy is slow, and a loser. Never ever choose him. Unless trying out his moves from this FAQ. - Moon Slice = d, u+B - Cross Cutter = b, f+B - Neck Rolling = d, u+A - Storm Finger = f,df, d, db, b+B **Final Storm Finger** = b, d, u+A (5) ATHENA ASAMIYA After using her Super Maximum, press {d, df+B} and she will release all of those crystal balls getting more hits. Also, her Psycho Sword attack can be used in mid air. - Psycho Bolt Attack = d, db, b+B - Psycho Reflector = b, db, d, df, f+A - Fenix Arrow (in air) = d, db, b+B - Psycho Sword = f, d, df+B **Shinning Crystal Bit** = b, f, df, d, db, b, ub+B (6) RALF Ralf can throw several Super Maximums in a row. But don't do a lot because your opponent will start to learn your attack pattern and counter attack you. Overall...Ralf is a pretty good fighter. - Vulcan Punch = B - Rolling Attack = b, f+B - Super Argentina Backbreaker (near opponent) = b, db, d, df, f+A - Destroyer Punch = d, u+B **Mega Vulcan Punch** = db, b, f+B (7) RYO SAKAZAKY He is flawless. Throw a weak fireball and follow it up with any attack of his or better yet...his Super Maximum and you have a killing machine! Nothing can stop you! Ok, maybe Ryu from street fighter can. His Super Maximum can de done while in mid air! - Ko Hou Ken = d, df, f+B - Hienshiipukyaku = db, f+A - Kohou = f, d, df+B - Houshioukouken = f, b, db, d, df, f+B - Sanretsu Ken = f, df, d, db, b+B - Kuchoko Ouken (in air) = d, df, f+B - Kyokugenryurenpuken (near opponent) = b, db, d, df, f+B **Ryuokoranpu** = d, df, f, df, d, db, b+B (8) TERRY BOGARD One of the elite of the game. His attacks can be used anywhere and anytime against anyone. He is really fast and it's really easy to beat the game with him. Have you noticed how he can give Ryo a good fight? I guess Terry Bogard is the only one in the game with enough combos and attacks to kill Nakoruru, Omega Rugal and Saisyu. - Burning Knuckle = d, db, b+B - Power Wave = d, df, f+B - Rising Tackle = d, u+B - Crack Shot = d, db, b, ub+A - Power Dunk = f, d, df+A **Power Geiser** = d, db, b, db, f+B (9) JOE HIGASHI When using his Bakuretsuken, press {d, df, f+B} and Joe will do more hits than usual. Mmmmm.....is that it? Yeah...he's not a great fighter after all is he? Somebody better call Sagat or Adon. - Hurricane Uppercut = b, db, d, df, f+B - Slash Kick = db, uf+A - Tiger Kick = d, df, f, uf+A - Bakuretsuken = B - Aogonnokakato = d, db, b+A **Screw Napal** = f, b, db, d, df+B (10) SIE KENSOU He sucks. His attacks are terrible. But...if your Super Maximum makes contact with your opponent, they can kiss their winning streak against you goodbye. His Super Maximum is simply the most devastating attack in the game. - Chio Kyo Dan = d, db, b+B - Ryu Gaku Sai = b, d, db+A - Ryu Ren Ga = b, db, d, df, f+B - Ryu Soo Geky (in air) = d, db, b+B **Shin Ryutenfukyaku** = d, df, f, b, f+B (This is freaking nasty) (11) KIM KAP HWAN Kim Kap Hwan can't throw fireballs, but this is not bad. You can use his Super Maximum in the air and his attacks usually can be done one after another to keep opponent from using fireballs or long range attacks. - Hongetsuzan = d, db, b+A - Hienzan = d, u+A - Hishiokyaku = d, df, f+A - Ryuseiraku = b, f+A **Hou Ou Kyaku** = d, db, b, db, f+A (12) MAY SHIRANUI Mai can apply her Super Maximum in the air! Really nice work Takara. Also, her Musabi No Mai is done when jumping also. Press d, db, b+B and see the results! - Kachiosen = d, df, f+B - Ryuenpu = d, db, b+B - Hysatsushinobibachi = b, db, d, df, f+A - Musabi No Mai = d, u+B - Hishioenyin = f, d, df+A **Chiohiisatsushinobibachi** = f, db, f+A (13) IORI YAGAMI Let's face it, when Iori attacks his opponents will not fly trough the air. So it's hard to play as him. I suggest you send a Hyakuhaschishiki with weak punch and inmidiately do your Super Maximum to do a cheap attack which takes a lot of damage from your opponent. I can tell you that after playing the 30 plus hours with the game Iori was the most effective character. He truly is a dangerous foe. - Hyakuhaschishiki Yamibara = d, df, f+B - Hyakushiki Oniyaki = f, d, df+B - Hyakuniyunanashiji Aoibana = d, db, b+A - Nihyakuyunishiki Kototsukiin = f, df, d, db, b+A **Kinsennihyakuyuichishiki Yaotone** = d, db, b, db, d, df, f+B (14) EIJI KISARAGI He is one of the best. His attacks are the best. But it's a bitch to master all of his moves since the button combinations are really hard to learn. A good thing is you can use the Santesuha infinite times to keep your opponent at bay. - Kikohoo = d, df, f+B - Ryueiyin = b, db, d, df, f+B - Tenmkyaku = d, db, b, ub+A - Kasumigiri = d, db, b+B - Koobagiry = f, df, d, db, b+A - Santesuha = d, df, f, df, d, db, b+B - Kageutsushi = d, df, f+A **Zantetsutoroken** = b, db, d, df, f, df, d+B (15) BILLY KANE This guy is cheap. If you cn hit your opponent with your Maximum power then you may have chance. Otherwise he sucks. His moves don't do a lot of damage and they are really hard to make contact. But... I mastered a way to make the most out of Billy Kane. Simply wait until his Maximum gauge is full and his attacks will be faster! Use his Senbu Hyshiukon and he will land slower so that you can get more hits on your opponent. - Senbukon = B - Zusumeotoshi = d, db, d, df, f+B - Sansetsuconchudanuchi = b, db, d, df, f+B - Senbu Hyshiukon = db, d, df, f+A **Chyokaensenbukon** = d, df, f, df, d, db, b+B ----+----+----+----+----+---- Secret characters 'SAISYU KUSANAGI' There is only 1 way to get Saisyu and that is to press SELECT 3 times when the TAKARA logo appears after starting the game. You must think that since Saisyu is a boss, then he is powerful. Well...you're wrong. He is pretty useless. His attack don't do quite as much damage as ny other in the game and his attack patern is just like Kyo's (like father, like son). His moves are: - Yamibarai = d, df, f+B - Kamukakari = f, df, d, db, b+B - Aniyaki = f, d, df+B **Orochinagi** = d, db, b, db, d, df, f+B 'OMEGA RUGAL' To choose Omega Rugal you must do the above code where you choose Saisyu. After pressing SELECT 3 times at the TAKARA logo, Omega Rugal should also be selectable now at character select screen. His moves are: - Reppuken = d, df, f+B - Kaiser Wave = f, b, db, d, df, f+B - Genocide Cutter = d, db, b, ub, +A - Dark Varia = d, df, f+A - Body Press = f, df, d, db, b+B **Giant Body Pressure** = f, df, d, db, b, f, df, d, db, b+B 'NAKORURU' Mmmm....press SELECT 20 times at the TAKARA screen and Nakoruru should be available now. She has the best attacks in the game. She does more damage than anybody in the game. She is the Queen of fighters 95! Her moves are: - Amubeyatoro = f, df, d, db, b+B - Annumutsube = b, db, d+B - Reramutsube = d, df, f+B - Kamairymuse = b, d, db+B - Kamaimutsube (after Kamairymuse) = B - Reramutsube (after Kamairymuse) = d+B - Apechikamuirimase = b, d, db+B and hold **Ererutsukamuirimuse** = f, df, d, db, b, f, df, d, db, b+B ----+----+----+----+----+---- Ending .....That's a wrap.
