===In ''The King of Fighters'' series===
Terry is a recurring character in ''The King of Fighters'' series, where he is the core leader of the ''Fatal Fury'' Team, usually with Andy and Joe as his teammates, in the series' main timeline. Due to being a crossover series like the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], ''The King of Fighters'' series ignores the continuity of many of the previous games of each series that it features. For example, characters from ''Fatal Fury'' and its prequel series ''Art of Fighting'' are depicted as around the same age as one another, despite ''Art of Fighting'' being set over a decade before the events of ''Fatal Fury''. Although both first and second games’ storylines of both ''Art of Fighting'' and ''Fatal Fury'' are being acknowledged in this continuity. Another notable example is that Rock was still raised by Terry in spite of Geese and Krauser's deaths being ignored, and eventually grows up and legitimate to enter the tournament during the fourth arc's tournament, where he finally faces Geese. However, the 3D fighting game spin-off series ''The King of Fighters: Maximum Impact'' is heavily based on the storyline of ''Mark of the Wolves'', where Geese perished at the end of ''Real Bout Fatal Fury''{{'}}s tournament, thus making it a direct follow-up to the main ''Fatal Fury'' shared universe games.

The only ''The King of Fighters''’ saga where Terry played an important role was in its second storyline, NESTS Chronicles (from ‘99 - 2001). Terry helps Blue Mary while she is being targeted by the NESTS organization who kidnapped and cloned Kyo Kusanagi, while taking down one of its remaining secret agents/assassins who were sent by said syndicate somewhere in the world. With the death of all boss characters of the NESTS Saga, Terry returns to helping people in restoring South Town, which was half-destroyed by a traitorous clone of NESTS’ loyalist Zero (who disguised himself as Ling, a tactical advisor to Heidern) back in 2000.

Outside of these series, Terry has become a mascot for SNK as a whole like [[Ryu]] to [[Capcom]], often appearing alongside the company logo in promotional material. This has led to a plethora of guest appearances in other media such as numerous crossovers where he is often a headliner for the SNK side of the title. Of particular note is the game ''{{iw|wikipedia|SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy}}'', where Terry appears as a female with a new character design and voice. This is caused by antagonist Kukri creating a pocket dimension where various female SNK characters find themselves in. Any non-female characters trapped in this dimension turn female while inside, except Iori Yagami, under guise of Miss X (the final boss of ''SNK Heroines'' spiritual prequel, ''SNK Gals Fighters'') has options given by the players to switch between his female form or retain his original male form. Terry's ending depicts the ending of ''Real Bout: Fatal Fury'' where Geese Howard willingly falls off Geese Tower to his death while Terry watches, only for Terry to turn around and find a menacing Rock Howard, who proceeds to boot him off the edge. Terry then suddenly awakens in his apartment and realizes it was all a nightmare.
