The first 3D fighter ever, Virtua Fighter was released by SEGA originally as an arcade title. Spawning 4 proper sequels, the game eventually made its way to home consoles, most notably with a haphazard 32X version.

Overview

The game plays in a 3D format. The Saturn technology and NV1 architecture in the game relied on quadratic surfaces instead of polygons that are used in modern 3D graphics. The images were created by using wire frames and flat-shaded quads. The game retains it's staple of multiple characters, who all have their own distinctive moves.
It differed from other fighting games from the same era as the game relied on only the control stick and three buttons, punch, kick and guard. The game is highly regarded for the real world fighting techniques and it's in-depth fighting engine, and it was as a result viewed as revolutionary when it was first came out.

Characters


An Arabian character named Siba was originally scheduled to be featured in the game. His character model did in fact appear on some Virtua Fighter arcade cabinets.
He was eventually dropped, but he makes an appearance in Sega Saturn Fighters MegaMix.
