All the opponents in this version are different as well; beside bearing other names, many of them also exhibit different fighting styles - for example, there is a character who throws fireballs, another one who can fly, etc.
Altogether, there are only five possible opponents in this release, as opposed to ten in the other version.
There is only one location (background) in the game, a kung-fu training hall.
Gameplay-wise, this version retains the basic system of the original; however, due to the reduced number of opponents, there are less moves in the game.
A distinct addition is a jump kick, and the ability to bounce off the walls.
About Nintendo Entertainment System
The Nintendo Entertainment System (1983 in Japan, 1985 in the West) revived the North American video game industry after the 1983 crash and established conventions — cartridges, licensing seals, save systems — that shaped the industry for decades. NES collecting is one of the most established retro markets: common titles remain cheap, but a well-known handful of low-print-run games (many from smaller third-party publishers) are among the most expensive video games in existence.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Yie Ar Kung-Fu (1985), suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo Entertainment System titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
