Virtua Fighter Kids Virtua Fighter series. It was released for Sega Titan Video arcade hardware in 1996 before being ported to the Sega Saturn .
Gameplay Virtua Fighter Kids is a roughly 20% faster and in some cases simpler version of Virtua Fighter 2 Fighting Vipers
In Japan the game heavily advertises the Japanese Sinvino beverage, Java Tea (ジャワティー), with Jacky holding a can in a victory pose and Shun regularly taking sips of the beverage during fights. All Java Tea references were removed from Western versions.
Of note is the Kids version of Dural, in which a goldfish can be seen swimming around her head. The Kids versions of Akira Yuki and Sarah Bryant are unlockable characters within Fighters Megamix
