Final Fight

Descriptions:

There's trouble in Metro City. The members of the Mad Gear Gang have kidnapped the mayor's daughter Jessica and the clock is ticking.

Final Fight is a 2D side-scrolling fighting game. Taking on the role of either Cody, Guy, or Mike Haggar, you must advance through six areas of the city clearing out the gang infestation. You will have to cope with a variety of thugs, ranging from firebomb-throwing maniacs to behemoth wrestlers. To defeat these thugs, you have an arsenal of punches, kicks, throws, and jump kicks at your disposal.

The streets of Metro City are filled with criminals who are part of a gang called Mad Gear. Former wrestler and newly elected mayor Mike Haggar tries to do something about it, much to the displeasure of the Mad Gear Gang who kidnap his daughter Jessica. In Final Fight you take on the role of wrestler Haggar or street fighter Cody. Kick & Punch your way through Metro City as you battle the scum of the Mad Gear Gang and try to bring back Jessica.

Final Fight is the first game of a series of beat 'em ups in the style of Double Dragon. It's a conversion of the original Final Fight arcade game.

Note: A few years later Capcom released Final Fight Guy for SNES, which is almost the same as Final Fight for SNES but features Guy instead of Cody. Cody, Guy and Haggar were all in the arcade version.
