Zamoth & Olisan told me last month they played that game in Japan...and now here's the video that proves it!!!
More details guys, pleasr! :P ;)
Wow, can't wait to play it (let's hope soon available in mame or rom upgrade...)
:spaceace: :spaceace: :spaceace:

great.
Wasn't Vigilante supposed to be Spartan X / Kung fu Master Sequel ?
-
Indeed Vigilante was the "official" sequel. Seems after finalisation of "Kung Fu Master 2", Irem decided that they wanted a more "american" game, thus moving forward to Vigilante.
-
Like the guy said it looks more like a reboot than a proper sequel.
Anyway, great find!!! it's amazing it's been lost for so long and it's only resurfacing now.
BITD what I found really cool in Vigilante was that you had to rescue "Madonna" (from the skinheads!).
(Now I understand it's just supposed to be the firstname of your girlfriend, but back then I thought you had to rescue the "real" Madonna. ;D)
So I found the "interaction" of the real world coming inside a video game just awesome!
Madonna was the s**t back then, it was simply the coolest girl to save in the whole universe.

I was thinking exaclty the same back then, when I played VIGILANTE! ;D
Because SPARTAN X2 looks very similar than the first episode, can we presume it runs on the same hardware?
How cool it would be to have a Spartan / Spartan 2 'dual game' on the same board (like Star Wars/ESB) :P

i'm watching the video in loop
one of my favorite game, this story is incredible
can't wait it came to mame
let's dream for 2 or 3 minutes,
imagine it can run on the same hardware ...
if i can find the mame set i 'will try to convert an Kung fu master in kung fu master 2
it's totaly insane !!!
i' wrote an article in French on my web site many years ago explaining the legacy and the reference of the game
http://lejrs.e-monsite.com/pages/content/kung-fu-master.html
i'will update it today
thank's for this incredibly news

can't wait it came to mame
just saw on UKVAC that the guys in the Mame-forum said it was not submitted to them so far and the board seems to be damaged now.
If that´s the case it would be a real shame.

yeaah it will be a disaster
but i' hope they dumped it before
and maybe the rom aren't damaged....
-
they could still send it to jochen. i guess it is not unfixable.

Need to check in my DD, will show you some exclusive pics ^^
And yes it's more a Spartan X 1.5 than a real sequel.
As i know:
- the roms are dumped
- the PCB has a reboot problem the week we try it. It's probably a technical issue, not a roms issue.
- as i remember, the PCB don't have specific components so a "convert" might be possible.
Will see the owner again next month, so i'll ask about mame release.
-
Yes!!!!!!

when i look at the video it's like a Double dragon 2
quite same as the first one but overclocked

Yes, this game is more speed, and gameplay is less rigid than first one ;)

The whole japanese company story is worth the reading.
Relations between Capcom and Irem at that time...

Did anything more become of this does anyone know? It's been 2 years.

Ui, never saw something about KFM2. I liked the 1st one on my C64 ;D

I have KFM in one of my generic cabinets, awesome game. Loved it on the Nes BITD.
