The Casio Karate Fight — LCD Fighting Game
The Casio Karate Fight was a handheld LCD game from Casio — one of the Japanese electronics company’s range of pocket game devices produced throughout the 1980s. Casio was a significant manufacturer of handheld LCD games alongside its calculator and watch products, producing titles covering sports, action, and skill games that competed with Nintendo’s Game & Watch series. The karate theme reflected the martial arts craze of the early 1980s, when films like Enter the Dragon and the popularity of martial arts instruction made fighting-themed games particularly appealing to young consumers.
