This one is currently unemulated, but worth noting I think.

I did a search for/on BASH, and pretty much found what you linked Crayfish.
I found another game that Oriental Soft designed called G-Stream:

Video - http://youtube.com/watch?v=N2fZq2FQ1xw
But I have not been able to find out any information about the company, or any more about the game.
Nice find crayfish! :tup:
I cannot guarantee that this is 100% true and a source, but i read last year (i dont remember where⌠really) that Oriental Soft goes bankrupt with G-Stream and one of the main programmers of the company later creates Triangle Service, who are somewhat famous for XII Stag, Exzeal and a Brain Game-styled shooting game.
Nice find by the way! the game seems beautiful⌠i wonder if at least there is a dump of the ROM for get some hopes for a future emulaiton.
Iâm not quite certain⌠but I think sheâs saying, âbor-ing-est fi-ght-er ev-er!â.

Mostly all PC-FX games are FMV-based⌠and that game is horrible.
Couple of 3DO case and CD images of the legendary Eye of Typhoon:

I dont know if this was commented but Konami made a really obscure 3D fighter called âFighting Bujutsuâ
http://www.system16.com/hardware.php?id=580&gid=897#897
It was a Tekken/VF/DOA style fighting game for the Cobra hardware system who was a EXTREMELLY POWERFUL machine⌠and it was so poweful that Konami cant sell it, so the game became very rare.
R.Belmont at least dump the ROM and maybe it will be emulated some time, but sure will work very slow on MAME.

New fighting game emulated: Angel Eyes.
Reminds me a little to Asuka 120%
battle heat help
Ninjamatt here
sorry there was no other documentation on earth about this game
so this will have to do.
secret characters
During the opening FMV sequence, press IV, VI, II, II, V, V, VI, V, Run.
basic controls
weak attack
strong attack
special attack button
evade
block
taunt
pause
low attacks : performed by pressing down + weak or down + strong attack.
overheads : seems like upfwd + strong attack
throws : ???/ while close fwd strong attack ???
throw break : block repeatedly while being thrown.
distance shift : up,up to move closer or down,down to move far away
ground attack/ground persue : ???
get up/wake up attack attack : ???
while rising special : ???
ex physical attack : qcb,hcf + special attack (at any distance) when life is low
ex energy attack : back + weak attack while far away will be explained in a sec
supers : different per character with the special button
how to play
basic idea is to beat the other guy up until his life is gone.
when you start the game both you and the opponent start out close to each other.
this is indicated by the pics of your characters face above the life bars.
by pressing down,down you can move away from the opponent. you will notice the
character portraits will shift in accordance to your distance far or close.
Its important to know if youre close or far because certain supers or specials
only work at certain distances.
ok there are two gauges on the top and bottom of the play screen.
these flash and indicate whether the attack is high or low.
the gauges flash different colors indicating what type of attack is coming as well.
yellow for normals
blue for special
red for throws,supers
REVERSAL SYSTEM
this is what makes the game fun
you have a few options anytime the gauges are flashing to decide what to do.
basically , you can input up to 3 attacks to reverse your opponent
ie i do a weak attac, you counter with a weak attack, i go for a low attack, you evade the kick by jumping over it
now we are back to a neutral state and can begin another try at an assault
KAI
wind flip kick
:when close ???
damaging flip click move while close that resembles shuâs attack from fist of the north star
ki blast
Back + weak punch (while far away)
shoots quick fireball
energy ball
qcfx2 + special button (while far away)
throws fireball
shi sotsu ken
press special button repeatedly (while far away)
does super rapid punches like kenshiroâs 1000 crack fist
F,HCF + Special
shoots beam super
i started working on the other folks moves but some are pretty hard to figure out
anyway hope this helped some
Shit i remember reading about this game in 1998 in some magazine here in the uk, how it was supposedly better than vf3, never saw it never even heard of it until you mentioned it, that must be one rare game i actually wonder if anybody has played it!
Angel eyes aka touki denshou is a weird game i have it for psx, i wouldnât say it played like asuka 120% actually i woulnât even know what to say it played like with itâs weird dashing/ air dashing system it sort of reminds me of marvel without the chains every character has magneto like movement.
they done a terrible job with the characters though some are sprites while others are pre rendered models sort looking like killa instinct, they look dreadful.
One of our Arcades has it or had it, looks nice but I donât want to waste tokens on it⌠maybe Iâll give it a shot next time Iâm there.
I played it in MAME not bad, the 2d sprites are pretty good and some nice animations the prerendered chars though meh⌠but decent game I kinda like it, not bad, lots of cool fan service lol.
I think the PS1 version has a lot of unlockable charas though but nothing about the arcade versionâŚ
Haze has emulated âJackie Chan - Kung Fu Masterâ and âJackie Chan in Fists of Fireâ, seems like epic lulz, gotta wait for the latest MAME build.
Wasnât that marketed as Fighting Wu Shu? I played that at ATEI or ECTS one year, looked really good. This was 96 or 97.
lol I was looking for footage on youtube and I found actual mikado matches:

You can find some more in related.
OMG this seems really playable⌠what a surprise.
Cant wait for the MAME driver now.
holy shit. Japan really is the promised land.
I used to play this game all the time. My local Walmart had it. and it was only $.50 to play. Konami dumped thier entire stock of this game for pennies on the dollar shortly after it came out. The company that put in all the games of all the walmarts around central and southern indiana bought like 20 of them, and put them in various places. So my little po-dunk town had a brand new, 40" machine. The thing was fâing huge. But the gameplay was crap.
So I played it, itâs not bad I wouldnât expect too much, but it is pretty fun, most dmâs are just hcf pp/kk or hcb pp/kk
I like the fatalities too, both versions are pretty different, the original doesnât seem to have the jackies playable (maybe a code?) and you get a to be continued when you beat it (1st version), it shows two weird characters but they arenât in the sequel?
Also zombie characters?
edit:
Anyone work out the DMâs for Thorsten and the white chick?
Must play Fist of Fire, been looking for that for a while now!!!
ok guys i have jackie chan kung fu master and in fist of fire pcb and i played them a little
here is a move sticker i made from my original ones plus i added DM for characters ^^
