A Classis Powerhouse!! A must Buy!!

I saw this app and almost hit the floor. KARATE CHAMP! WOW! In the early 80s I rode my banana seat bike 2 miles to the local mall with a pocket full of a roll of quarters and would spend All DAY playing this baby. This game gave me GREAT joy and many GREAT memories...as many of the arcade greats did! NOW--I am a 5th degree black belt and a proud owner of a martial arts dojo! This translation of this game is well done and the music is HYSTERICAL---I remembered it immedietly. I still remembered many of the moves when I was little. AND if you are a fan of the movie BLOODSPORT---you smiled insanly as Van Damn played the arcade classic you loved as a child This app brings back memories. Hopefully--you are old enough to have played this great game in its arcade form. (if you are 30 something and up--you will remember this one!) Dont listen to the negative feedbacks. Im old enough to remember the growth of videogames to see the very beginnings and watch them grow to what they are today. I have respect for the old greats--OF COURSE its not a PS3--but it was great for its time. Of course NOTHING is like holding onto the control sticks of the arcade machine--the only drawback is getting used to the controls. For being on the iPad--the controls are very receptive and move smoothly....so it is not too bad. MY ONLY COMPLAINT?......I played it and it was originally voiced in JAPANEESE!! Id LOVE it to be an update tho. HAJIME--"begin" YAME--"stop" IPPON--"Full point" WAZA ARI--"half point" GET THE ORIGINAL JAPANESE SOUNDTRACK---to make this classic complete. THANKS FOR MAKING THIS A GREAT APP.....and not ruining it--like so many others do!!!!!
