I'd say nine times out of ten, gamers who have played Yie Ar Kung-Fu do so on a multi-cartridge. It's a common pirate. Yie Ar Kung-Fu, which is pronounced "YEE ER KUNG FOO," means "One, Two Kung Fu." Others ways to play it are on Game Boy Advance in a game called Arcade Advance or perhaps by tracking down the actual arcade machine itself from way back.

 

Yie Ar Kung-Fu (also known as Kekkyoku Nankyoku Daibouken) was the first game Konami released for the Famicom in April 1985. It was also the trigger for what became a popular home video game genre: the fighter.

In Yie Ar Kung- Fu, you take control of Lee, the pink-panted, shirtless wonder boy, who battles his way through five fighters, each with a different style of attack. Each time you defeat your final opponent, you fight each of them again in a more difficult setting.

You are Lee (maybe a play on Bruce Lee...just speculation), a dude with blue shoes who perhaps is out to become the martial arts world champion. Early on you'll learn Lee's basic moves, involving punches and kicks. Lee cannot throw stars, use a bo, chain, nor can he shoot fireballs. He's your average Little Mac underdog, who's going to beat everyone in his path to become the greatest!
