Origin[edit]
A remix of the first level/credits theme from Psycho Soldier, a side-scrolling platformer from SNK. The original rendition of the theme is notable for being the first video game song with sampled lyrics. This version uses the Japanese lyrics from the song's single release, and is performed by Kanako Kotera.[2] The song is arranged with a fast-paced orchestral rock style, similar to that of anime theme songs from the 1980s, and remains faithful to the original single's three verse structure, though the final verse's key is raised by a full step, matching the key change heard in the original in-game version.

Trivia[edit]
- According to Masahiro Sakurai's Famitsu column, this song was recorded over 6 months prior to Terry's release. The English version was recorded first, followed by the Japanese version. It was carefully mixed by the arranger, Yuzo Koshiro, to resemble a song from the '80s, contemporary to the original game's release. In total, over 80 individual tracks went into the final mix of the song.[3]

Origin[edit]
The aforementioned remix of the first level/credits theme from Psycho Soldier, only with English lyrics, for the first time since the original game's release. Since the English version has fewer verses than the Japanese version, the second verse is replaced with a saxophone solo, and the third verse is a reprise of the first verse. Like the Japanese version, it is performed by Kanako Kotera, albeit with the lyrics performed with slightly different intonation to match the original arcade version.[2]

Athena’s name is magic
Mystery, it’s what you’ll see Her crystal is the answer Fighting fair to keep us free She’s just a little girl with power inside, burning bright You better hide if you are bad, she’ll get you She’ll read your mind and find if you believe in right or wrong Fire! Fire! Psycho Soldier Fire! Fire! Psycho Soldier |
Trivia[edit]
- Though Ultimate boasts the first time the English lyrics have been heard in full since the release of Psycho Soldier, it was actually SNK 40th Anniversary Collection that was the first time since the original release that they were heard at all, as they were briefly featured in that game's remix of the Psycho Soldier theme.
- Masahiro Sakurai stated in a YouTube video that the reason a brand new instrumental verse was made for this remix was to match the three verse structure of the Japanese version, and the intonational differences in the lyrics are a result of the Japanese singers intentionally emphasizing certain syllables to sound more natural to non-Japanese listeners, referred to as "Japanized English."[4]

A remix of the theme used in the first Metal Slug game during the boss fights with Hairbuster Riberts in Mission 2 and Mission 3, and the final boss fight with General Morden and his Hi-Do helicopter. It was also used in later games: the boss fight against Dragon Nosuke and first area of the Final Mission themes in Metal Slug 2, and the outer factory route in Mission 3 and the Hi-Do and fake General Morden boss fight in Metal Slug 3. The remix stays very close to the orchestration of the original song, only adding minor synthesized flourishes. In some parts of the song, the main theme of Metal Slug is also included.

Trivia[edit]
- When selecting music for Terry's Challenger Pack, Masahiro Sakurai initially focused on songs related to Terry, but noted that a lot of them had a "big band" style, and wanted to branch out into other SNK franchises to add more variety. He sent a list of 50 song choices to SNK, expecting them to pick out 10 or 20, but SNK agreed to all of them, much to his surprise.[5] As a result, Fatal Fury has the most music of any third-party and DLC series, and the third highest amount of music after Mario and Fire Emblem.
- However, as most of the music is not from the Fatal Fury series, Tekken has the most music tracks from its own series alone.
- Fatal Fury and Pac-Man share the distinction of including music from outside their series of origin.
- At 17, the Fatal Fury franchise is tied with the Mega Man franchise with the most amount of new remixes in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. However, this counts the two arrangements of the Psycho Soldier theme separately.
- The original versions of ART of FIGHT, Banquet of Nature, and Stormy Saxophone 2, as well as the opening theme from The King of Fighters '94, all appear in Terry's reveal trailer, but do not appear in-game.
- Coincidentally, the characters associated with the former 3 songs (Ryo Sakazaki, Nakoruru, and Iori Yagami, respectively) were all added as Mii Fighter costumes, with each song’s in-game remix being used in their respective reveals.
