From Virtua Fighter 1

• Character and Arena models (With new ones for the newer characters)

• Plane Structure (Essentially a 2d game with 3d models, there is no 8-way walk or evading (besides Lion's special evade). The only way to change planes is via a throw.)
• Menu layout and game modes. Only Arcade and Vs. are available

From Virtua Fighter 4

• Full character roster
• Virtually identical moves lists (Only moves that involve 3 dimensions, i.e. throw evades, etc. have been omitted)
