Shaq Fu has its place in gaming history as one of the most absurd examples of image licensing in the 1990's.

Every gamer should own it :lol: .

Yeah, he could get most of the surviving copies then "help" have the rest destroyed and control the future market.
I thought about that too. Maybe the same person owns both websites. Either way, they can horde, so can I! :twisted: It's not like it's expensive to horde these particular carts unless they're in completed form (CIB).

I'm all for destroying it. I recall an Uncle Scrooge comic in which Scrooge McDuck took all but one quarter of a certain year and dumped them in the ocean, making his quarter immensely valuable...

You know, it is kinda puzzling why Shaq-Fu is held in such... high? regard.

I mean it's not good. At all. The concept is ridiculous sure, but I've played much worse.

Like E.T, Shaq-Fu only are talked about because of cult status.

I say don't hack a shaq unless it's a playoff game.

Dear Lord. A Def Jam vs. Cash Money game could be something. Not that "Back dat ass up" would be the next "Get over here!", but a Beastie Boy trio fatality of "whacha whacha whacha want?" on Bird Man would be great.

Don't those use AKI's wrestling engine from their awesome WCW/WWF n64 games? :P
Those games were so freaking good, haha. Best wrestling game I've played since... yeah, the WCW/WWF N64 games. 8)

There's a copy of Shaq-Fu at my Salvation Army that's been there for several months (maybe even a year). I'd buy it except that $3 seems like rather a lot.

I love shaq. He even has shaq´s celebrity roast which is kinda funny.
I either never played this game, or played it like 10 seconds.
I say: Shaq Fu Tournament to decide who´s the best!
