餓狼伝説スペシャル
Some of the "Art of Fighting" cast have continued appearing in other SNK fighting games (particularly in "The King of Fighters" series) since the last game in the "Art of Fighting" series was released. In the same way that Geese Howard appears as a secret boss in "Art of Fighting 2", Ryo Sakazaki appears as a secret boss in "Fatal Fury Special" and "Fatal Fury: Wild Ambition". Unlike the battle against Geese in "Art of Fighting 2", the battles against Ryo in both games are depicted as a "dream matches" and do not occur in the series' storyline.
