Fairy War 2
Toffi 2010 (12/??) 2 Windows Download (zip file) N/A Indie Freeware N/A N/A N/A LilithPort / Parsec Online N/A 2D Fighter Maker 2nd game. 1v1 2D fighter with naked fairies that were made using prerender 3D models. The first game was a one player beat ‘em up (but made in FM2nd too, weirdly enough). Has some gross NSFW stuff
Famicom Fighters
McJimmy Unknown (need reliable info!) 2 Windows Download (zip file) N/A Indie Freeware N/A N/A 2022/10/23 update Original game netcode Online N/A 1v1 2D fighter with Famicom/NES characters made by a western dev. Has two versions: MUGEN and Ikemen Go builds. The Ikemen Go build has delay based netplay mode. Dangerously close to a generic MUGEN type of game but it has a big cult status so I made an exception
Famicom Hinshitai ファミコン瀕死隊 Umigami 2007 (01/05) 2 Windows Download (zip file) N/A Doujin Freeware N/A N/A 2014/12/30 version Parsec Archive.org backup N/A 2D Fighter Maker 95 game. 1v1 2D fighter with Famicom/NES characters. I made the same “exception” on the database as Famicom Fighters. Game was -not- saved by Archive.org but it's moderately easy to find elsewhere

Steam entry N/A 4 players 3D 2v2 tag-team arena fighter. Has been on early access since 2022 and I think the game is dead by now so it’s here and not in “In development”

Gameplay created with a “very simple to play, hard to master” mindset, with no special motion inputs. Rollback netcode. It's an adquired taste imho, some matches can be cool, others very boring. Has an active community
Far East of Eden: Kabuki Klash 天外魔境 真伝 (Tengai Makyou Shinden) Racdym / Hudson 1995 (06/20) 2 Arcade (Neogeo MVS) Cartridge (202Mbit) Neogeo AES, Neogeo CD Retail Commercial MAME / FBNeo (Arcade, Neogeo CD) N/A N/A Fightcade Archive.org backup GameFAQs 1v1 2D weapon based fighter, part of Tengai Makyou… in fact is the only game of the franchise that has been released outside Japan. Basically a Samurai Shodown clone, but a cute and decent one. Excluding AES/NGCD this has been never ported to anything. This japanese guide is also good
Fatal Art
Bonehouse 2016 (12/24) 2 Windows Download (zip file) N/A Indie Freeware N/A Fatal Art Reload 1.4 Original game netcode? / Parsec Dev Facebook N/A MUGEN game. 1v1 2D fighter with simple yet charming character designs (almost like matchmans).

Fatal Art Reload

Jumped to Ikemen GO and added two new characters, rebalance and new movements for all characters. Dev is still working on “Knockout!” at the same time. Has rollback netcode (I haven’t tested it but Knockout rollback was great)

Excellent sequel and the game that cemented the popularity of SNK as a fighting game developer with Art of Fighting. After Fatal Fury Special no one plays this competitively BUT I strongly recommend to play the Genesis port because it has some fun exclusive stuff
Fatal Fury 3: Road to the Final Victory 餓狼伝説 3 遥かなる闘い (Garou Densetsu 3: Harukanaru Tatakai) SNK 1995 (03/27) 2 Arcade (Neogeo MVS) Cartridge (266Mbit) Neogeo AES, Neogeo CD, Saturn, Windows, PS2, Switch, Xbox One, Android, iOS Retail Commercial MAME / FBNeo (Arcade), Mednafen (Saturn), PCSX2 (PS2), Yuzu/Ryujinx (Switch) N/A N/A Fightcade (Arcade, SNES, Genesis), RetroArch (Beetle Saturn, rollback), Mednafen (delay) for Saturn Online SuperCombo Fourth entry. Visually stunning game yet it's a very broken experience, especially with Terry. The game development was drastically affected by the Great Hanshin earthquake in 1995. Still a fun game. Franchise continues in Real Bout Fatal Fury
Fatal Fury Special 餓狼伝説SPECIAL (Garou Densetsu SPECIAL) SNK 1993 (09/16) 2 Arcade (Neogeo MVS) Cartridge (150Mbit) Neogeo AES, FM Towns, GG, Neogeo CD, SNES, Sega CD, PC Engine Arcade CD-ROM², X68000, PS2, Xbox 360, Switch, Xbox One, Android, iOS Retail Commercial MAME / FBNeo (Arcade), Tsugaru (FM Towns), Genesis Plus GX or Ares (GG, Sega CD, SNES), Mednafen (PCE), MAME, XM6 or px68k-libretro for RetroArch (X68000), PCSX2 (PS2), Xenia (Xbox 360), Yuzu/Ryujinx (Switch) N/A N/A Fightcade (Arcade, SNES) Online SuperCombo Third entry. Update to 2 that added playable bosses, Duck King, Tung Fu Rue, Geese Howard and Ryo Sakazaki (secret char). Big scene in Japan and a moderately active scene in Fightcade. GG version is pretty cool. EU SNES version is a 16MBit game, and four characters were cut (!!)
Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves 餓狼伝説 City of the Wolves (Garou Densetsu: City of the Wolves) SNK 2025 (04/24) 2 Windows, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S Download, Blu Ray (PS4 PS5, Xbox Series X/S) N/A Retail Commercial N/A N/A N/A Original game netcode Online Dream Cancel New Fatal Fury after 26 years. Direct sequel to Garou: MOTW. A lot of guest characters, including fucking Ronaldo and DJ Fetuccini because arab oil money. So far I've enjoyed it quite a bit. Pretty good netplay (finally) but terrible UI and unstable matchmaking
Fatal Fury: First Contact 餓狼伝説 ファーストコンタクト (Garou Densetsu First Contact) SNK / Yumekobo 1999 (04/30) 2 Neogeo Pocket Color Cartridge Switch and Steam on Neogeo Pocket Color Selection Vol. 1 Retail Commercial Ares N/A N/A Neogeo Pocket Color Selection Vol.1 using Parsec / Steam Remote Archive.org backup GameFAQs Exclusive version of Fatal Fury for the NGPC. A mix of Real Bout gameplay, but very stripped down. No public NGPC emulator can do 2 players link mode, but that mode works in Neogeo Pocket Color Selection Vol.1 for Steam or Switch, playable online via Parsec / Steam Remote

Japan and US versions has different inputs for special moves. You can fight a PVP match from the start, but after one match, any time player 2 jumps in, you both have to beat the CPU opponent in order to do the next player match
Fatal Fury: Wild Ambition 餓狼伝説WILD AMBITION (Garou Densetsu WILD AMBITION) JAPAN VISTEC / SNK 1999 (01/28) 2 Arcade (Hyper Neogeo 64) Cartridge PS1 Retail Commercial MAME Fatal Fury: Wild Ambition (PS1 port) Rev. A? Retrobuda (Arkadyzja), Parsec Archive.org backup @wiki (in japanese) Ninth entry. The 3D debut of Fatal Fury (basically an answer to Street Fighter EX). HNG64 emulation is finally decent after MAME 0.281. Geese is hidden (highlight Billy and press Right) and Li Xiangfei is unlockable via a NVRAM or save state file. Rollback via Arkadyzja
Fatal Fury: Wild Ambition (PS1 port) 餓狼伝説WILD AMBITION (Garou Densetsu WILD AMBITION) SNK 1999 (06/24) 2 PlayStation CD PS3, PSP, PSV Retail Commercial Duckstation / MednafenPS1 N/A N/A Duckstation Netplay / Arkadyzja Online GameFAQs Port that added Duck King and Mr. Karate but sadly is a serious downgrade from the HNG64 in terms of gameplay, visuals and audio, and received a negative reception at that time. At least you can play this version with rollback. It's on PS3/PSP/PSV via PSN
Fatal Impact
Nico Galis 1994 (??/??) 2 Amiga Floppy Disk N/A Indie Commercial WinUAE N/A N/A Parsec N/A N/A 1v1 2D fighter, supposedly a very early Indie effort made in Spain by a sole developer in 1994. If that’s true it's pretty amazing. Stiff, kinda ugly and slow, but a respectable work for Amiga, also the music slaps. It was never finished, so is more like a Beta, and it's technically abandonware
Fatal/Fake
Light’s 2005 (08/05) 2 Windows CD N/A Doujin Commercial N/A Crucis Fatal+Fake 1.13 Parsec Archive.org backup Avalon (in japanese) 1v1 3D fighter based on “Fate/stay night”. Heavily compared to Hinokakera at that time. Has a sequel “Crucis Fatal+Fake” with different mechanics. Disable “Software Vertex Processing”, select “Render Texture” to small and “Shadows” as circle or it will not run on Win 10/11. Cool game
Fate/sword dance
Rapid Fire 2005 (03/21) 2 Windows CD N/A Doujin Commercial N/A N/A v1.202 Parsec Archive.org backup N/A 1v1 2D fighter and fangame of “Fate/stay night”. Latest patch was saved by Archive.org but sadly not the demo (the full game is not that hard to find though). Fun poverty game. Rapid Fire later transformed into “NRF” and developed the amazing “BigBang Beat” series

Infamous of how execution-intensive the gameplay is (hope you like Tiger Knees motions). Has a niche community in Japan. Not to be confused with “Crucis Fatal+Fake”. PS2 port is arcade perfect. Arcade version runs fine on the fork PCSX2X6
Fate/Unlimited Codes (PSP port)
Eighting / Cavia / TYPE-MOON / Capcom 2009 (06/18) 2 PlayStation Portable UMD N/A Retail Commercial PPSSPP N/A N/A PPSSPP Archive.org backup Mizuumi The PSP port is a total update: motions were simplified or changed entirely, stages are larger, every character had critical changes and there’s a new mechanic (Reflect Dash). Runs at 30FPS too which is a pity. No one plays this version from a competitive side. Has a US release though
FateAxis フェイトアクシス T-Riam / Rokusuijo 2002 (10/18) 2 Windows Download (zip file) N/A Doujin Freeware N/A FateAxis AC 1.6 Parsec Archive.org backup N/A First entry. F2P 1v1 3D weapon based fighter. Original IP (no relation with the TYPE-MOON Fate franchise). Imagine Toshinden but as an airdasher. Made a shock in the doujin scene at that time. Basically impossible to run on an OS past Win XP

Has an active community in Japan. An arcade version called “FateAxis AC” is the latest entry but it's only available in one game center in Osaka, so this is the final version for most mortals. No online. A pain in the ass to run in non-ENG/JPN Windows

Gameplay clearly inspired in Dragon Ball Z Super Butoden, even including the split-screen effect but no flying. It's mega jank, no combos and you cannot press 2 buttons at the same time (classic old DOS games issue)
Fēng Shén Bǎng (NES bootleg version) 封神榜 Waixing 1996 (??/??) 2 Nintendo Entertainment System Cartridge N/A Indie Commercial Mesen N/A N/A Fightcade (rollback), Mednafen / Mesen / Retroarch (delay) N/A N/A Also known in some markets as “Myth Struggle”. 1v1 2D fighter with a chinese setting. This has a fun dev story: it's even more similar to Dragon Ball Z Super Butoden and if the sprites of the official DOS game were original ones this time they redrawn over the DBZ sprites lol

Kyanta 2 1.0 Parsec N/A N/A First entry of this amazing doujin 1v1 or 3v3 2D fighter with a very goofy and unusual visual style. The original version is still available on Vector.

The dev had a strong relationship with SNK (some sources says the name of Kim Kaphwan is based on Viccom’s CEO name). “So bad it’s okay” category. Eye of Typhoon is supposedly a “spiritual sequel” but they don't look alike at all

Characters can “steal” movements from the rival. The released game was an unfinished Beta. It's bad, but has some charm. Check the leaked Beta. Also available on “Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration”
Fight for Life (Beta)

It runs at better framerate, doesn’t have the “steal” mechanic and plays overall better, yet the 3D models are rougher
Fight for Vengeance
PSCD Games / Bitmap Soft 2021 (07/??) 2 Sega Genesis Cartridge N/A Indie Commercial BlastEm N/A
Fightcade Online N/A 1v1 2D indie/homebrew fighter for Genesis. Edgy/dark visuals and character designs. Six characters. It's sadly mediocre (feels very stiff) and there’s better indie fighting games on Genesis. It's on Fightcade

A 15 minutes joke if you ask me, but it's playable. Rollback netcode. Sold super good for an Indie FG. Has an active scene in Taiwan for some reason. Fight of Animals: Arena is in the platform fighter genre so it's not a sequel
Fight of Gods

Reception has been overall good, yet because of its “customizable” stuff it doesn’t have a big competitive scene (and probably wasn’t the idea anyway)
Fight!

The first game is called “Fighters Destiny” but the sequel dropped the plural form of the first word. It's pretty decent but for nostalgic and “being there” reasons I prefer the first one.

Saturn exclusive that mix Virtua Fighter 3 and Fighting Vipers with a lot of classic Sega characters. I prefer to set the gameplay to “Virtua Fighter”. Freaking amazing game that sadly doesn’t have any modern port and I hope when Arkadyzja got RetroArch generates a scene

N/A Duckstation Netplay / Arkadyzja N/A GameFAQs 1v1 3D fighter. Interesting “custom combo” mechanic. Great soundtrack by Zuntata. THQ localized the game in the west as “Vs.” (most ungoogleable name ever for a FG imho) but the changes were so big it's basically a totally different game with it's own entry on the database

The custom combo system was totally removed… if this is good or bad it's up to your taste. Never had a port on consoles. It's interesting too. Latest version “2.02” is a parent ROM on MAME for some reason, but I don’t know the changes

Probably the most uninspired of all of his games (the dev himself said this was his most “casual” project). I recommend to play “Shaolin vs Wutang Legends” instead

Gameplay is honestly bad but for Amiga is fine, also the 2D work is great. You think it's a cheap SNK ripoff but nope, they truly worked hard. Amiga CD32 version has CDA soundtrack, the OP theme song is so cool!

The return of the Arika cast after years. Rollback netcode. Got Terry Bogard as a DLC. Arcade version runs OK on Jconfig/Teknoparrot. The Switch game is sooo different. Has a small scene

Playable on Model 2 Emulator with visual glitches so I recommend the PS3 port that works perfect on RPCS3. SS port is a downgrade but has FUCKING PEPSIMAN. Arcade version is on Arkadyzja but MAME emulation is a mixed bag
Fighting Vipers 2 ファイティングバイパーズ2 Sega AM2 1998 (04/??) 2 Arcade (Sega Model 3) ROM board DC, arcade version included in Like a Dragon Gaiden as a minigame on PS4/5, Xbox One, Series X/S and Steam Retail Commercial Supermodel (Arcade), Flycast (DC) N/A Rev A Parsec or Supermodel Dojo (Arcade), Fightcade / Arkadyzja / Flycast Dojo (DC) N/A @wiki (in japanese) Cool sequel, and kind of fast for a 1v1 3D fighter of that era. Even more obscure than the first one outside Japan. The DC port was a notorious downgrade, but it's pretty much playable. Arcade game was included on Like a Dragon Gaiden, emulation looks fine there
