Does anyone remember a Jackie Chan arcade game that had graphics like Mortal Kombat? It was at my local ChineseTakeway when I was about 15 (1995).

Even though Jackie Chan was in the game he wasn't actually a playable character - he was an opponent in bonus rounds and the end of game boss. His head would stick up between rounds and he would be saying shit like "Drink Jackie Chan Soy Bean milk!"*

Some of the characters included a Guile/Kano rip-off with army fatigues and a long mullet, a girl with an extending bo-staff like Monkey, and a blonde dominatrix=type woman like Sonya Blade.

Anyone remember it?

Just as a disclaimer: I was smoking a lot of pot at this time but I KNOW I played the game on several occasions. :D

Yeahhhhh...I found it! Jackie Chan: The Kung-fu Master (or Jackie Chan in Fists of Fire). The game was made by the controversial video game company Kaneko, and is apparently very rare.

There is an emulation of it though. If you go to the link you can see screen shots: http://emustatus.rainemu.com/games/jchan.htm

    Never played or even heard of, but sounds pretty awesome.
    Mostly the part about soy milk ads.

      Yeah. I really don't know why you don't see more soy based products in video games today...

      Maybe Jackie Chan will bring it back after he finishes promoting his High Energy Lemon Green Tea Tubes:
