Instead going out in his own way… damn *•~•*

One of the things that appealed to me with both Terry and Ryu (despite being two different personalities) is that they were true to themselves. None of them tried to impress others or bragging about what they did or their legacy. They just wanted to live, Ryu despite being the wandering warrior, he at the end just tried to prove himself and following his own path to the meaning of fight. As for Terry despite being the "i'm going to avenge my father/master" type of character at the beginning, he just wanted to live a normal life, just training for the unnavoidable fight with geese and when he felt like his intervention was needed. Comparison between the two characters seems rather wrong from the personality perspective, because more than comparison to me are more than an analogy of each other. Relatable goals but totally different paths.

Terry Bogard is my favorite fighting game character, and one of my favorite videogame characters overall, right next to Cloud Strife and Dante. I know it sounds very silly to say one finds a fictional character to be an inspiration, especially as an adult, but I really find Terry to be a role model. Resilient and fearless in the face of challenge, yet kind and warm to those he loves. A true gentleman.

Terry Bogard is one of my favorite videogame characters ever, because no matter how much he suffered and much he sacrifies to get his goal, he's just a chill dude with a very positive outlook of life, he's really a role model for kids, at least that's why I always liked him. I've also bought Garou MOTW for so many platforms, I only wish we'll finally get a new entry. BTW now that I know about that japanese PS1 exclusive Real Bout game, guess I'll have to hunt a copy for it, I knew Alfred but didn't knew his game was region locked.

@@MoriyaMug Even if it wasn't lost, I can't imagine they'd be keen on completing and releasing a game that was developed for hardware from over 20 years ago. They'd probably re-do everything anyway. But they already have the basis for modern fighting games in their more recent releases, so a few tweaks to gameplay and the facelift that would already be necessary and it wouldn't be all that much more work either way- and when I say 'that much more' I mean in comparison of the 'lost data' vs 'not lost data' scenarios, not that it wouldn't be work at all. The biggest loss would be the story elements that they had nailed down already.

It holds up amazingly well (at least in my opinion) even nearly 20 years after its initial release. Even if you can't do all the fancy cancelling, the buttons and specials feel incredible (the first time you land Buster Wolf or Neo Deadly Rave... 🤌), and the character sprites and stages are bursting with personality.

I'm loving this series. Still hoping for a Bloody Roar-Retrospective as that series is highly underrated, And for series ranking it's the first game known in arcades as Beastorizer was decent not an awful game but still pretty good, 2 is considered one of the 2 high-points of the series as not only did the graphics, gameplay, and story/plot improved it also introduced into the series the popular mainstays of Kenji aka Bakuryu 2 Yugo's adopted kid brother, Shina adopted Leopard Zoanthrope daughter of ally Gado and childhood friend of Yugo, Jenny the mysterious British Bat Zoanthrope spy who seems to have her own agenda at times, Uriko now playable with a new beast-form of partially transformed into a Cat, Stun the Hercules Beetle Zoanthrope who was once human but was turned into his current form after his partner betrayed him, Shenlong the villainous later turned anti-hero clone of Long, and Busuzima the Chameleon Zoanthrope who was the one who backstabbed Stun and turned him into what he is now, who after losing to Yugo in the canon becomes a comical villain, 3 is considered the 2nd of the 2 high-points in the series though it is were the series starts to go off tracks with it's plot by going into the sci-fi/supernatural genre but still consider one of the best games in the series improving the aspects of graphics, and gameplay and reintroducing Bakuryu 1 as the robotic Khoryu, and the concept of Uriko as a Chimera Zoanthrope via her clone Uranus as unlockable characters, and introducing fan-favorite villain Xion the Unborn, Primal Fury/Extreme a canonical filler-side plot set after 3 is in the same boat as the first game not as good as 2 and 3 but still a good game and introduced the characters of Chronos the Penguin Zoanthrope who was a prince of a Zoanthrope kingdom, and turned into a Phoenix in Hyper-Beast state, and his bodyguard/caretaker Genesha a Elephant Zoanthrope, and for the Xbox version Extreme a exclusive character in the form of Fang the lead protagonist of the manga Bloody Roar: The Fang, and then later on after Primal Fury/Extreme's release Konami buys Hudson Soft and the rights to their properties including Bomberman, and Bloody Roar and this results in Bloody Roar 4 being the first title under the Konami banner and it's the worst title in the series taking massive step backs in every direction with one of the worst features being "Career Mode" basically in Career Mode you pick a fighter and go around fighting random fights and earning what's called DNA points in order to purchase special abilities, and special moves used by the characters on the roster in order to create your own custom fighter now before you say Career Mode is a CaZ mode a Create A Zoanthrope mode I wish as with how Career Mode works it would've been perfect as a fully realized Create A Zoanthrope mode but nope your custom fighter is one of the established characters on the roster, but to pour even more salt into the wound Career Mode is also how you unlock Shina, Long, Kohryu, Uranus and the final boss Dragon Ryoho as playable characters with Shina, Long, Kohryu, and Uranus costing 50,000 DNA Points each to unlock, and Dragon Ryoho costing a whopping one-million DNA Points to unlock now this wouldn't be so bad if it was just Kohryu, and Uranus costing the 50,000 DNA Points to unlock as they've been unlockable characters since their debut in 3, and Dragon Ryoho costing one-million DNA Points to unlock as he is the final boss so yeah it's going to take some grinding to unlock him but to cut Shina, and Long series protagonists who have been series main-stays since the 1st 2 games from the base roster and essentally forcing you to grind through the Career Mode just to unlock them is BS.

Great retrospective on one of my all time favorite fighting game series. Ever since I first played Fatal Fury 2 at a local grocery store back in the early 90’s I’ve been hooked on SNK and it’s characters. Like you mentioned Terry and the gang just seem so much more like “normal people” with real personalities than characters from SF, MK, etc. They are a lot more relatable and down to earth. I grew up loving both, but I’ve always liked Fatal Fury more than SF simply because the games and characters were so much more unique and had more personality and “flavor” to them. Terry is my favorite fighting game character of all time just because he’s such a cool down to earth easy going guy who actually has a real personality.

Terry has always been one of my favorite videogame characters. Probably for that very reason you point out; he's an everyman. He's just a guy. He loves to fight. He works when he can but is happy-go-lucky and just enjoys life however it comes at him. He's also a master trash talker when in the ring, and nowhere is this more evident than KOF XIII. Still, he's been stagnant and frozen in time ever since Garou. His KOF appearances have him locked, frozen in age, importance, and development. He can't affect the story in any great degree. He can't be the hero, and he can't change. This is evident in that almost every 'Fatal Fury' team ending since 2003 has been some kind of variation of the same idea played over and over again. For all his popularity may be greater today than it has been at any point... he's still 'frozen' as the mascot of SNK. And until they decide to continue his story in the next Fatal Fury game- SHOULD they ever decide to do so- he will only ever be locked in that frame. But... maybe that's not such a bad thing. With the way franchises and characters are being killed, characteristically assassinated, or subverted (just look what they did to poor Ken Masters in SF6) maybe be frozen in time while he was on top is the better outcome.

From what I've heard (take it with a grain of salt), Garou Densetsu Premium was supposed to be a re-telling of the first Fatal Fury but with a more realistic setting and characters, like if it was some sort of "real-life action movie", hence why characters have more realistic designs (like Yamazaki actually looking like a Yakuza).

People say SNK ripped off Capcom... The plot twist is, the guy who made Street Fighter was involved from the get go and then Capcom actually stole all the more elements from SNK after. But as such companies should be able to borrow such things. Progression should go on.

Terry does just feel like a real guy. He’s the local guy on the street who’s willing to help out with anything or play a couple games of basketball with you, and at night he’s the guy you see at the bar hanging out with his best friends and girlfriend. He’s such a normal dude for fighting games and that’s amazing. I think we all know a person in our lives who’s just like Terry, and hell some of us might be the Terry of our towns.

A few notes on the translation stuff: The dialogue is NOT that weird in Japanese. While it's similar to what their original dialogue is, the translation/localization they went with was bizarre and overly 90's. Geese's "pin-headed son of an ice-cream maker" in Japanese is just some generic insults about being pathetic scum, while "wubba wubba, I'm in the pink today" was originally just along the lines of "all right! Things are going my way!". SNK themselves do not know why Marco Rodriguez was called Kushnood Butt overseas and have even asked fans if they'd like to see his name changed back.

@@dragonbornexpress5650 The US localization of their games was done entirely separately from SNK in Japan. According to the dev team on the Kaiserwave stream, they were completely removed from localization decisions, and don't even remember who was responsible for their English translations back then or why they made the decisions they did. Hence why they asked, on that stream, if Marco should get his name back, and when everyone said yes, they went and reverted it back in KOF XV. The MMA fighter thing is just a guess; no one knows the real reason why.

Theory about nightmare Geese. He used the phoenix scrolls prior to his official death where he does die from a skyscraper fall. Just that he’s more undead looking and that the reason why he appears alive and stable despite being dead was because the scrolls also allowed him to appear like he’s alive. That version helped him from avoiding ever going to work and used his will to give it to a “distant relative”. Which in reality. It’s Geese himself. Maybe he thought of giving the money to Rock Howard to make up for not appearing in his life.

i like to see terry's character change in real bout as less of a retcon or them "finally getting the appeal, "and more of an actual, in-universe character development. he spent so much of his lift filled with rage and vengeance, but now through all this fighting and all the friends he's made, he realizes he doesn't *want* to be a killer, even if it's someone as horrible as geese. he just wants to be able to enjoy his life. that's why he tries to save geese. he wants to stop geese's plans, but he doesn't want blood on his hands. geese already died once, this is terry's chance at redemption. and it's a chance that geese tears from terry's hands, laughing all the way down. which makes terry adopting geese's son all the more meaningful-- geese stole terry's redemption, so now he's taking it back not through anger but through caring and love.
