Fast, frantic, and much more fun than people remember. 4) Jackie Chan in Fists of Fire (1995, Kaneko) One of the wildest hidden fighting games ever made, filled with explosive combos, over-the-top animations, and multiple versions of Jackie Chan. Loud, quick, and seriously underrated. 3) Appoooh (1984, Sega Sanritsu) A strange and rarely seen wrestling game with unique characters, unexpected special moves, and surprisingly deep mechanics. An oddball curiosity that becomes oddly addictive once it clicks. 2) Ninja Clowns (1991, Strata Games) A bizarre comedic beat ’em up featuring clown heroes, slapstick enemies, and cartoon-style attacks. Weird, messy, and surprisingly entertaining when the chaos kicks in. 1) Funky Jet (1992, Mitchell) A bright and energetic platform action game with fast movement, quirky moves, and wild level designs. Fun from the first jump and one of the most overlooked arcade games of its era.
