''Kart Fighter'' is a bootleg (read: unlicensed) two-player [[Fighting Game]] made for the [[NES]]. Predating ''[[Super Smash Bros (Video Game)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' by 6 years, it contains Nintendo characters (from ''[[Mario Kart (Video Game)|Mario Kart]]'') beating each other up ''[[Street Fighter]]''-style and is known as one of the first few NES [[Fighting Game|Fighting Games]]. Each character has up to three command moves that allow him to do more damaging moves.
 
For a bootleg NES game, ''Kart Fighter'' is actually a surprisingly good effort, being one of the best 2D fighting games on the NES (and the bigger amount of ''[[Street Fighter II (Video Game)|Street Fighter II]]'' feeling you'll ever get on a NES game).
 
Characters:

* A Koopa Troopa ("Nokonoko")

=== '''Tropes used for this game:''' ===
 
* [[Banana Peel]]: Donkey Kong J.r.'s projectile attack is a thrown banana peel. Naturally, it makes the opponent trip (and does quite a bit of damage).
* [[Blind Idiot Translation]]: Mostly averted with the character names, (they're based off the Japanese names) with the exception of Mario.
* [[The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard]]: Egregious with Luigi- most of his specials are AI only and cannot be done by the player. See "Secret AI Moves".
* [[Easy Mode Mockery]]: You only get an ending screen if you beat the game on the highest difficulty setting.
* [[EverythingsEverything's Better Withwith Monkeys]]: Donkey Kong Jr.
* [[EverythingsEverything's Better Withwith Spinning]]: Peach and Donkey Kong Junior have a spinning charge move, Mario and Luigi spin when doing their uppercut, and Koopa Troopa has a shell spin move.
* [[Fan Service]]: Most probably the reason why Peach has such a short skirt in this game.
* [[Kamehame Hadoken]]: All of the characters have at least one projectile move, save for the Koopa Troopa. Yes, '''Yoshi''' can do a hadoken in this game.
Line 33 ⟶ 32:
* [[SNK Boss]]: Every single AI-controlled opponent after the first. They are able to read your movements and will use attacks to counter yours, and will even change strategies after being beaten once. This usually makes them hard to fight, unless, of course, the [[AI Breaker|player spams blocking and low kicks]].
* [[Some Dexterity Required]]: This game actually has command moves, but thankfully they aren't hard to execute.
* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: MARI. That is all.
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: Yoshi, Peach, Toad and the Koopa Troopa. No longer mounts/distressed damsels/advisorsadvisers/cannon fodder anymore. Yoshi is one of the more competent fighters and his AI ''will'' kick your ass if you don't know how to counter him.
* [[Turtle Power]]: Bowser and the Koopa Troopa.
* [[Waif Fu]]: [[Distressed Damsel in Distress|Peach]] is in this game, and she can actually kick some ass.
* [[Warmup Boss]]: Your first opponent, a Koopa Troopa. His shell spin special is pretty weak, and he has no far range attacks. As for the [[SNK Boss|rest of your opponents]]...
* [[A Winner Is You]]: Beating the game on the highest difficulty gives you a win screen.
