- Back to: Virtua Fighter.
Model 1 version
Unused characters
Several unfinished characters exist in the game, all with a very basic moveset and some attacks copied from other characters:
Majido
The most infamous of the scrapped Virtua Fighter cast, "Majido Ab Dul", also known as "Shiiba" was replaced with Akira at what appears to be very late in development, so much so that his portrait appears on some arcade cabinets. This is the only character who would officially see the light of day, becoming "Siba" (and given a sword) in the Sega Saturn game, Fighters Megamix.
Jeff
"Jeff", or "Jeffery Buckman" is a military type likely named after Virtua Fighter designer, Jeffery Buchanan. His first name was recycled for Jeffry (who spent much of the game's development as "Willie"), but the character himself was axed early on.
With director Seiichi Ishii moving to Namco to work on Tekken, it is speculated that this character design may have been recycled for its fighter, Jack.
Akira (Ryuzaki)
An earlier, angrier-looking Akira with a different surname. The character was given a redesign, but this prototype version still exists in code.
Unknown
An unknown fighter that breaks Virtua Fighter tradition by having three outfits instead of two.
