Prepare yourself for Polygon's Who Would Win Week. One eternal question spans all of pop culture: "Who would win?" This week we have answers. Caillou? There are like eight different versions of Caillou. Tens of thousands of MUGEN characters exist, spanning every franchise you can think of. With a few free downloads, you can have Peter Griffin face off against Jake from Avatar, or Jake from Adventure Time, or Jake from State Farm. That’s because MUGEN isn’t exactly a game - it’s a construction kit for fighting games, assembling tools to create characters from the ground up. But when you start it up, you discover that the game only has one character: a nondescript martial artist named Kung Fu Man. While most “who would win” battles take place in the unfettered realm of the imagination, in 1999 a group of anonymous software developers released a little program called MUGEN that lets you make them a little more real.Īt first glance, MUGEN looks like one of the zillions of lousy Street Fighter 2 ripoffs that clogged arcades in the 1990s.
