( Japanese : 株式会社カプコン , Hepburn : Kabushiki-gaisha Kapukon ) is a Japanese video game developer and publisher known for creating numerous multi-million selling game franchises , including Mega Man , Street Fighter , Resident Evil , Devil May Cry , Onimusha , Dino Crisis , Dead Rising , Sengoku Basara , Ghosts ' n Goblins , Monster Hunter , Breath of Fire , and Ace Attorney as well as games based on Disney animated properties . Established in 1979 , it has become an international enterprise with subsidiaries in North America , Europe , and Japan .
Warriors of Fate [ a ] is a side-scrolling beat-'em-up produced by Capcom . It is the second arcade game based on the Tenchi wo Kurau manga , following Dynasty Wars . Originally released to arcades in 1992 , home versions of the Sega Saturn and PlayStation were released in 1996 . A version for mobile phones followed in 2005 . Capcom later included an emulated version of the arcade original as part of the Capcom Beat 'Em Up Bundle released digitally for the PlayStation 4 , Nintendo Switch , Xbox One and Microsoft Windows on September 18 , 2018 .
Asia ( /ˈeɪʒə , ˈeɪʃə/ ( listen ) ) is Earth 's largest and most populous continent , located primarily in the Eastern and Northern Hemispheres . It shares the continental landmass of Eurasia with the continent of Europe and the continental landmass of Afro-Eurasia with both Europe and Africa . Asia covers an area of 44,579,000 square kilometres ( 17,212,000 sq mi ) , about 30% of Earth 's total land area and 8.7% of the Earth 's total surface area . The continent , which has long been home to the majority of the human population , was the site of many of the first civilizations . Asia is notable for not only its overall large size and population , but also dense and large settlements , as well as vast barely populated regions . Its 4.5 billion people ( as of June 2019 [ update ] ) constitute roughly 60% of the world 's population , more than all other continents combined . In general terms , Asia is bounded on the east by the Pacific Ocean , on the south by the Indian Ocean , and on the north by the Arctic Ocean . The border of Asia with Europe is a historical and cultural construct , as there is no clear physical and geographical separation between them . It is somewhat arbitrary and has moved since its first conception in classical antiquity . The division of Eurasia into two continents reflects East-West cultural , linguistic , and ethnic differences , some of which vary on a spectrum rather than with a sharp dividing line . The most commonly accepted boundaries place Asia to the east of the Suez Canal separating it from Africa ; and to the east of the Turkish Straits , the Ural Mountains and Ural River , and to the south of the Caucasus Mountains and the Caspian and Black Seas , separating it from Europe . China and India alternated in being the largest economies in the world from 1 to 1800 CE .
Beat 'em up ( also known as brawler ) is a video game genre featuring hand-to-hand combat between the protagonist and an improbably large number of opponents . Traditional beat 'em ups take place in scrolling , two-dimensional ( 2D ) levels , though some later games feature more open three-dimensional ( 3D ) environments with yet larger numbers of enemies . These games are noted for their simple gameplay , a source of both critical acclaim and derision . Two-player cooperative gameplay and multiple player characters are also hallmarks of the genre . Most of these games take place in urban settings and feature crime-fighting and revenge-based plots , though some games may employ historical , science fiction or fantasy themes . The first beat 'em up was 1984 's Kung-Fu Master , with 1986 's Renegade introducing the urban settings and underworld revenge themes employed extensively by later games . The genre then saw a period of high popularity between the release of Double Dragon in 1987 , which defined the two-player cooperative mode central to classic beat 'em ups , and led to 1991 's Street Fighter II , which drew gamers towards one-on-one fighting games . Games such as Streets of Rage , Final Fight , Golden Axe and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are other classics to emerge from this period . The genre has been less popular since the emergence of 3D-based mass-market games , but still some beat 'em ups adapted the simple formula to utilize large-scale 3D environments . In recent years , the genre has seen a resurgence in Asia , with the success of South Korean online beat 'em up Dungeon Fighter Online ( 2004 ) .
A quiz is a form of game or mind sport , in which the players ( as individuals or in teams ) attempt to answer questions correctly . It is a game to test the knowledge about a certain subject .

A sports game is a video game genre that simulates the practice of sports . Most sports have been recreated with a game , including team sports , track and field , extreme sports and combat sports . Some games emphasize actually playing the sport ( such as the Madden NFL series ) , whilst others emphasize strategy and sport management ( such as Championship Manager and Out of the Park Baseball ) . Some , such as Need for Speed , Arch Rivals and Punch-Out ! ! , satirize the sport for comic effect . This genre has been popular throughout the history of video games and is competitive , just like real-world sports . A number of game series feature the names and characteristics of real teams and players , and are updated annually to reflect real-world changes . Sports genre is one of the oldest genres in gaming history .

Street Fighter II : Champion Edition [ a ] is a fighting game released for the arcades by Capcom in 1992 . It was the first of several updated versions of Street Fighter II : The World Warrior , part of the Street Fighter II sub-series of Street Fighter games . The main changes were the addition of the Grand Masters ( the final four computer-controlled opponents in the single-player mode ) as playable characters and mirror matches ( vs. matches using the same character ) . The fighting techniques of the eight main characters from the original game were also further refined to allow for more-balanced competitive play . Champion Edition was followed by Street Fighter II Turbo : Hyper Fighting , released several months later .
A fighting game is a video game genre based around close combat between a limited number of characters , in a stage in which the boundaries are fixed . The characters fight each others until they defeat their opponents or the time expires . The matches typically consist of several rounds , in an arena , with each player character having different abilities but each is relatively viable to choose . Players must master techniques such as blocking , counter-attacking , and chaining attacks together into combos . Starting in the early 1990s , most fighting games allowed the player to execute special attacks by performing specific input combinations . The fighting game genre is related to but distinct from beat 'em ups , which involve large numbers of enemies against the human player . The first game to feature fist fighting was Heavyweight Champ in 1976 , but it was Karate Champ which popularized one-on-one martial arts games in arcades in 1984 . The following year , Yie Ar Kung-Fu featured antagonists with differing fighting styles , while The Way of the Exploding Fist further popularized the genre on home systems . In 1987 , Street Fighter introduced hidden special attacks . In 1991 , Capcom 's highly successful Street Fighter II refined and popularized many of the conventions of the genre . The fighting game subsequently became the preeminent genre for competitive video gaming in the early to mid-1990s , particularly in arcades . This period spawned dozens of other popular fighting games , including franchises like Street Fighter , Super Smash Bros. , Tekken , and Virtua Fighter .
Street Fighter II Turbo : Hyper Fighting [ a ] is a competitive fighting game released for the arcade by Capcom in 1992 . It is the third game in the Street Fighter II sub-series of Street Fighter games following Street Fighter II : Champion Edition . Released less than a year after the previous installment , Hyper Fighting introduced a faster playing speed and new special moves for certain characters , as well as further refinement to the character balance . Hyper Fighting is the final arcade game in the Street Fighter II series to use the original CP System hardware . It was distributed as an upgrade kit designed to be installed into Champion Edition printed circuit boards . The next game in the series , Super Street Fighter II , uses the CP System 's successor , the CP System II .
Street Fighter Alpha : Warriors ' Dreams [ a ] is a 2D 1995 fighting game by Capcom originally released for the arcade for the CP System II hardware . It was the first all new Street Fighter game produced by Capcom since the release of Street Fighter II in 1991 . The working title for the game was Street Fighter Legends . The game introduces several new features , expanding on the Super Combo system previously featured in Super Street Fighter II Turbo , with graphics drawn in a similar cartoonish style to the one Capcom employed in Darkstalkers and X-Men : Children of the Atom . The plot of Street Fighter Alpha is set after the original Street Fighter but before Street Fighter II and thus the game features younger versions of established characters , as well as characters from the original Street Fighter and Final Fight , and a few who are new to the series .
The King of Dragons ( Japanese : ザ・キングオブドラゴンズ , Hepburn : Za Kingu obu Doragonzu ) is a 1991 side-scrolling beat-'em-up video game by Capcom that allows players to choose from five characters in order to travel through the kingdom of Malus and defeat the monsters that have taken over , as well as their leader , the red dragon Gildiss .

The music in this game was composed by Yoko Shimomura . The game was ported to the Super NES and released in 1994 .
