Now, it's generally considered among in the next decade destroyed what little reputation it had. While nobody will claim it is a good game, more than a few people are willing to refute that to say it is "one of the worst games ever made" is overblown, as early 1990s had plenty of all time.mediocre-to-bad fighting games both on consoles and computers that are no better than ''Shaq Fu'' (''VideoGame/PowerAthlete'', ''VideoGame/RiseOfTheRobots'', ''VideoGame/DoomsdayWarrior'', to name a few) and laser-focused condamnation toward this game is rather mean-spirited when there's some value in its SoBadItsGood quality.

* AudienceAlienatingPremise: The game was doomed from the moment someone decided it would be a smart idea to try and float a fighting game on the star power of a professional athlete. Fans of fighting games walked past it because it focused on Shaquille O'Neal throwing punches at martial arts champions in "the Second World", fans of sports games passed it up because it didn't focus on Shaq throwing down dunks in the court, and fans of both genres simply weren't interested in such a mediocre game playing the unbelievably ludicrous concept of Shaq using mystical basketball arts to fight martial arts champions in a parallel world completely straight.
