Jackie Chan Games

I never heard of that one, great find! Interesting that there were 2 clones of this game.

I think you forgot to upload the other updated pages in that zip cause the first page is missing the link to the extra page and such.

The new page is an interview with one of the actors from the arcade fighting game.

Another typo you might want to correct: It says Canon Ball instead of Cannon Ball in the title and below the screenshot.
And I really think that Kung Fu should have at least a tiny bit of info on the gameplay, like the other games in the article already have. No need for an indepth analysis, but as of now there's only background info on the game.

Interesting article. I never thought there were so many games based on Jackie Chan. To be honest though I always avoided those games. I never identified with the actor. Whenever I saw a game with his name on a title I assumed it was crap (and I bet it must be true in some cases). Now that Kung Fu was based on Jackie Chan was a surprise for me (if it is true that is). I find it hard to believe such detail has gone missing from such a well remembered title.

Good job

I could finally add a new entry to this article, one I was clued in on before I even wrote it but had no real info on. However through probably the weirdest, most convoluted networking that I have ever taken part in, after exactly a year I was put in touch with someone who was relevant to this.

In 1994, Jackie Chan became the spokesperson for a home computer system by Subor. While that in itself doesn't sound so interesting, what is particularly interesting is that the system he promoted is a Famiclone system:



Now more so than just writing about it, I really wanted to get some kind of real insight on the whole deal before adding it and further establishing myself as someone who knows too much for my own good on this subject. That's why I had some help to get in touch with someone who worked at Subor to comment on it. Now getting a Chinese pirate developer to talk (through translated emails by my Taiwan based friend) is not easy and paranoia was evident in every word spoken, but humorously he did lighten up when he realized I was a fan of Jackie and not some sort of spy.

Now the dude was super duper hyper paranoid about me posting real names or contact info since I guess he still works producing knock off electronics or something (I guess for another company), but the emails I got weren't terribly interesting beyond what I put in the article, mostly just chatter on how I found out about the whole thing and so on. In order to get the answer I wanted I didn't press any issue on piracy and stuff, handling him with proper respect. I did send a final email asking if there was any reaction from Japan due to Jackie fame there (a badly masked question just to see) but never got any reply on that.

Anyways, long story, probably boring for anyone but me, but please enjoy the slightly sidetracking addition that is SB-926

I also managed to track down the TV commercial in question and clean it up.

The watermark is there cause there's a lot of random Chinese advertisement text that changes underneath which I found a bit distracting, but if you want I can upload it of course.
