Yuu Yuu Hakusho Final is a pirated port of the Super Famicom game of the same name, made for the Famicom by an unknown company in 1996.
Overview
Yuu Yuu Hakusho Final's Gameplay
Like Harry's Legend, there are Chinese and English versions of the game. This is slightly odd though, given that there was no English version of the original game. Also, unlike Harry's Legend the cutscenes are in Chinese in the Chinese version. The English version is credited to NT (most likely the publisher of that version) and the character's names during gameplay are in Chinese, suggesting that this version was released afterwards. The translation for the English version seems to be done from scratch as a result of this, and the translation itself is surprisingly accurate for a pirate. Like in Final Fight 3 many words are hyphenated in the cutscenes, although there is use of punctuation in this game.
In the story mode there are 4 different characters to choose from, but they all use the same cutscenes and if the player loses a fight during the story and chooses to continue they can change the character that they play as. There are 5 of these cutscenes, although strangely the game ends with a simple "The End" screen. There are also Contest and 2-player modes, although oddly these are both compatible with two players. These modes have 8 playable characters in the Chinese version and 7 in the English version for unknown reasons. There are also 3 levels of difficulty for the 1-player modes.
The graphics are taken from the original Super Famicom game and simplified. The music is mainly taken from it as well, although one track is remixed from Master Fighter II and another from Street Fighter IV. The ending music from Super Mario Kart is reused from Kart Fighter.
Trivia
- When the fight ends, a repeated sound effect plays indicating score bonuses, despite there being no score in the game. This could mean the game used another game as a base.
