This is specially the case with his in-game sprite, as it is merely mirrored each time he turns to face the opposite side.

A similar mirroring case exists with the red bandolier Fang wears across his chest, as it sometimes swaps the direction it is being worn on (between left and right sides of the neck), depending on the image.

Additionally, the animation for the Psychic Blaster (Weapon D) shows Fang charging with his cannon arm but releasing the energy out of his fist.

Two of his weapons don't make use of his cannon.

Fang's Contra Returns incarnation has his cannon explicitly on his left arm/hand (and even quotes about it), and since this game attempts to rectify and unify assets from the classic series into a single new story, it can be assumed that this trait also applies to the original Fang.It's also possible the cannon is designed for use on either of his arms.His sprite is also mirrored in Ending C if Player 2 is Fang. Also, likely due to hardware or memory limitations, Fang's sprite is often mirrored from both sides (his cannon will constantly switch arms while turning around).On the intro, Space Station intro cutscene, and Endings C and D, he has the cannon on his right arm.On his main artwork by Yasuomi Umetsu, his sprite on Ending A, and his sprite on the Secret Ending, he has the cannon on his left arm.This isn't merely a case of image mirroring (which also applies sometimes), but that the artwork or sprite has been deliberately drawn with him having his cannon on either the right or the left arm. There are many inconsistencies in regard to which arm Fang has his cannon he has been shown to have it on either one on numerous occasions.

The name 'Brad Fang' could be a pun or mistranslated from 'Blood Fang', as both can be transcribed into 'ブラッド.

Note that this strategy can also be used while using the Pause menu, as pausing allows weapon changing. This allows Fang to shoot fully charged Psychic Blaster shots at will and can be used continuously in order to take down bosses at an impressive pace. This is done by using the Power Punch and then switching to the Psychic Blaster (preferably as fast as possible). The Psychic Blaster works well against certain bosses if it is charged completely.Īn exploit is possible with the Power Punch where the blast can be turned into a fully charged shot from the Psychic Blaster. The Beast Shooter is great against regular foes and good against bosses, although for the later it is best to make sure to fire at close range, as it loses some of its power the farther it travels.

The Power Punch does massive damage to bosses, although using it is only advised on certain occasions.

Probably the character who requires the most skill to control, although used correctly he ends up potentially being the most powerful.

Also, the description in the manual is slightly modified. In Probotector ( MD), the weapon is named PsychoBlaster™. The charged shot is devastating and perhaps one of the strongest attacks in the game. Leaves Fang vulnerable and unable to crouch properly.
