Fighter's History is a 1993 arcade fighting game developed and published by Data East. It's the inaugural game in the Fighter's History series. The main unique feature of the Fighter's History is its weak point system, which allows the player to temporarily stun an opponent by repeatedly hitting their weak point. Fighter's History became infamous for being the subject of a lawsuit against Data East by Capcom, who claimed the game is too similar to its hit title, Street Fighter II, and as such is copyright infringement on its property. The case was found in Data East's favor however, as the court found that the copied elements were scenes a faire, elements necessary for depicting the scenario. The game was later ported to the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1994, and followed by a sequel Karnov's Revenge for Neo Geo. There are three different gameplay modes are available. CPU Battle is the traditional arcade mode, where the player select a character and try to complete the game by beating all of the other fighters. In survival mode, the player select a team of five characters to go up against another team. And finally versus mode, where the player can go up against his friends.

Karnov's Revenge, also known as "Fighter's History Dynamite" in Japan, is a 1994 arcade fighting game, and the followup to Fighter's History. All returning characters have new moves, and Clown and Karnov are now playable characters while newcomers Zazie and Yungmie were introduced. The Super Famicom game "Fighter's History: Mizoguchi Kiki Ippatsu!!" is heavily based on Dynamite, and is believed to have been meant as a port. Dynamite itself would be ported to the Sega Saturn, and Mizoguchi Kiki Ippatsu!! was even thrown in as a bonus.

Fighter's History: Mizoguchi Kiki Ippatsu!! is a Super Famicom sequel to Data East's arcade fighting game series, featuring a story mode where Mizoguchi travels throughout the world to battle a mysterious masked figure (who Data East fans probably already know). It's the third game in the Fighter's History series, and the last one published by Data East. The game was initially released only in Japan for the Super Famicom on February 17, 1995, under the title of "Fighter's History: Mizoguchi Kiki Ippatsu!!". In 2017, Retro-Bit published the game for the international release as part of their compilation Data East Classic Collection, under the new title of "Fighter's History 2".
