The Invincible Dragon | Looks like Ryu, but not really.

When Street Fighter 2 was popular in the arcades back then in 1992, SNK dipped their toes into the fighting game genre and created an iconic masterpiece, Art of Fighting. Featuring two characters that looked very close to what Street Fighter had but it isn't really theft since it was made by developers who used to work at Capcom but moved to SNK for a better shot, more so you could say it was like a homage to Street Fighter. But if you want to talk about blatant theft, you'd have to give that status to Data East in '93 but that's a story for another time.

Haoh Shoukou Ken!
