{{selfref|This article is an ongoing effort to catalogue every fighting title or series featured on [[Wikipedia]].}}
The vast majority of fighting games fall into two categories, '''versus fighters''' (usually referred to simply as [[fighting game]]s), or '''[[beat 'em up]]s''' (a.k.a. scrolling fighters or brawlers). Some games fall into both categories, such as [[Dream Factory]] / [[Square Co.]]'s ''[[The Bouncer]]''.
Note: Games are in listed in a "'''''Common English Title/Alternate Title'' 'series' - Developer'''" format, where applicable.

==Beat 'em ups==
[[Beat 'em up]]s pit a fighter or group of fighters against many underpowered enemies. Gameplay usually spans many levels, with most levels ending in an enemy [[Boss (video games)|boss]]. If multiple players are involved, players generally fight cooperatively.

==Sports/fighting game sub-genres==
Sports-based fighting games are titles that fall firmly within the definitions of both the '''[[Fighting game]]''' and '''[[Sports game]]''' genre, such as boxing and wrestling video games. As such, they are usually put in their own separate sub-genres. Often the fighting is far more realistic than in traditional fighting games (though the amount of realism can greatly vary), and many feature real-world franchises or fighters.
===Boxing===
[[Boxing]] games go back farther than any other kind of fighting game, starting with [[Sega]]'s ''Heavyweight Champ'' in [[1976]]. Fighters wear [[boxing gloves]] and fight in [[boxing ring|rings]], and fighters can range from actual [[Fight Night Round 3|professional boxers]] to [[Power Punch II|aliens]] to [[Ready 2 Rumble Boxing: Round 2|Michael Jackson]].
