I remember first hearing this when i was like 7 years old *born in 98* and i started with melee first fighting game taste and i was like i want more i played mortal kombat deeeception i think it was and i was like…this is cool but its missing something so my uncle had this and i was so curious about it i borrowed it started it up watched the intro and was already invested cause i knew NOTHING about street fighter or king of fighters so ps2 controller in hand did 3 on 3 then was greeted to the groove and character selection just talking with hype music playing just Mouth Agap like This is what i was looking for and just remember this being my first fighting game and i’m so excited for the capcom collection to relieve those memories of nostalgia and G-G-G-Getting it on
Me and my bros burnt the Japanese Dreamcast version on a CD so we could play it before it got released in the US. We'd stay up until the middle of the night fighting each other. Miss those days.
You're clearly talking about the Osaka stage then. Especially by the third round where its already night and they bring out the cage! The whole presentation on this game was phenomenal.
The announcer from JJBA: Heritage for the Future's voice was so cool even though you couldn't understand half of what he says. Might be "Wake up and Stand. FIGHT!"
This game along with Marvel VS Capcom 2 are just a pure distillation of the fighting game community in the early 2000's before Street Fighter IV. Just so goddamn sick! They need to come back.
I go to an arcade around here that still has CVS2 its rare when i find someone that knows what they are doing but when i do its so satisfying to crush them.
Bro the memories just flood in.. this just randomly popped in my head today.. As a kid I would get so hype before I could even select my fighter because of how hype the announcer made me!! “Now, are you ready to get it on?” Man I cannot express the level of excitement I felt hearing those words… such a classic game that I’ll forever love, NO other fighter selection music will touch this and that’s a FACT!!
the rush hearing that credit sound to this menu at the arcade was unreal! best fighting game EVER!!!° other games you play, this game makes u feel part of the game!
I was 12 years old at my early years when this came out I was kicking ass and taking names!!! This is when arcades were kind of still around .. I'm 31 years old now :) I still remember this till this day!! Dream cast baby!!

After the announcement of Terry joins Smash Ultimate, I came back to this video. I hope Sakurai add this character select theme. If they updated announcer's dialogue for Smash Ultimate version, that's even better.
Please tell me yall are rocking to this in 2024.. my God this is bringing tears to my eyes.. I’ll give anything to have another fighting game with dope background music with the announcer in the back to hype you up before the showdown… ahhh man bring these times back!!!!!! Side note: I would always pose and mimic my fighters fighting stance before the match started to hype myself up even more 😂😂
When i was young i used to prefer the regular character select theme for this game, but now i prefer the groove select one. You can feel the concentration and pressure with this one.
they don't have announcers in fighting games that hype the game up lol best announcer in a fighting game I swear it's the same announcer from street fighter alpha 3
I would love to see a Capcom vs SNK 3... One that respects the play mechanics of each franchise instead of Capcomizing all of the characters regardless of franchise...
There is a "Player Select Version 1" and a "Player Select Version 2" (they are just the same song but with different stuff said by the VO, I spliced them together in this vid) but as far as I know there is no version that combines them two. I'll have one up for you in 24 hours.

OMG I MISS THIS HYPEMAN SO MUCH! Fighting games dont feel as hype without announcers like this anymore.
You say it !
He got a gig as the auto modellista announcer a few years later I believe. Haven't heard him since.

Street Fighter 4 had a good announcer

DAMN THIS IS HYPE!!!! I''m not holding back!!
Imagine hearing this 1:28 at a tournament, on stage, with everybody, the whole fcking crowd around you watching... Damn goosebumps ;)
You're clearly talking about the Osaka stage then. Especially by the third round where its already night and they bring out the cage! The whole presentation on this game was phenomenal.
This announcer and the Street Fighter Alpha 3 announcer are the best ones hands down!!

Aaron Chanthivong but stll this announcer sfa3 and third strike announcers are superb

GO FOR BROKE

Agreed, it was a special time.
I’m here after the Collection announcement to hear this announcer again
Same
Hardcore fans have been eagerly anticipating this event...
...and now, the waiting is finally OVER!! ❤
the chills!!!!
Character select screens with an announcer talking or vocals at all are the best/most memorable themes
I get all nostalgic listening to this. This theme basically screams the early 2000s. Miss it a lot!
This is the first time I ever heard the announcer's whole thing during Groove Select, usually he gets cut off around, "Guts".
Agreed
We are so back!!! 🔥
God, the OST for this game is amazing.
I go to an arcade around here that still has CVS2 its rare when i find someone that knows what they are doing but when i do its so satisfying to crush them.
Omg, I can't hold the tears
This Gonna be a Match to Remenber .......FIGHT !!
I'm getting so hyped listening to this
2:26 - now, a-a-a-a-are you ready to g-g-g-get it on?
Groove Selection is my favorite music.
Mine is the select character theme
Same
Are you single?
@@rome5628 I appreciate you helping out my apartment complex when it was on fire
I have da groove select as my ringtone
Why am I getting so pumped up when I listen to this
when i hear the groove select theme with the announcer, i can sense a thunderstorm with high winds approaching
Best crossover fighting game of all time!
I'll use this as my mixtape intro
"Great! I knew that groove was in your heart."
This announcer is fire. My favorite forever.
Best Fighting Game of all time.
Wheres the lie?!
@@CharkDragmire nonexistent.
We're so back!
Man, this gave me 90's/early 2000's arcade vibes

I always loved this theme especially the select screen and its art style.
the rush hearing that credit sound to this menu at the arcade was unreal! best fighting game EVER!!!°
other games you play, this game makes u feel part of the game!
I am so ready to hear this in-game in 2025!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The music/sounds combined with the announcer make everything more epic and crucial, bar none my favorite character selection soundtrack in gaming.
The character select song always reminded me of a watered-down, yet simultaneously amped up version of Nine Inch Nails', "The Line Begins to Blur."
Great! I knew that groove was in your heart!
2025 MARKS THE NEW MILLENNIUM
Go for Broke....... FIGHT!!!
Great! I knew that groove was in your heart! Oh man, are you ready for this?
I was 12 years old at my early years when this came out I was kicking ass and taking names!!! This is when arcades were kind of still around .. I'm 31 years old now :) I still remember this till this day!! Dream cast baby!!
I dont think I've ever heard a better select theme with announcer
I used to play this every day 😁
Groove Selection without the voice is my favorite music.
love the lyrics, so hyped
Who's still a hardcore fan of this game in 2020????
-raises hand-
A battle that's easily forgotten are you fucking crazy announcer guy ,please this game is so memorable holy shit .

"A battle that won't easily be forgotten" That's what he said
I feel like I'm preparing for laser tag hearing this

Shit is a heater and I’ve never even played CvS2, before my time
You should play it, it's lit
Daaaaamn the hype for this game was insane. Was really disappointed in the SSF4 announcer. Just sounds like he's on meth or something.
A.A.A.A ARE YOU READY!?

they don't have announcers in fighting games that hype the game up lol best announcer in a fighting game I swear it's the same announcer from street fighter alpha 3
懐かし過ぎてニヤけてもうた。ていうかこの曲人気だったんだね。確かに異国の者に刺さりそうではあるかな(偏見)
Terry and Mai now confirmed to be guest fighters in SF6
Ya know I would forgive capcom for SFV if they came out and said they was working CVS3
THE HYPEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hey i miss my sega dreamcast
This take me bk to the 6 grade
best announcer!
Good luck baby!
I wish we can play this on the ps4
2000s kids today : we have Street fighter V
90s/2000s kids:
Isn't it 2010s?
You got it all wrong, SF5 came out in the 2010s and CVS2 came out in the 2000s.

If only Capcom & SNK get back together and make a Third installment after all it’s been twenty years!
What happened with Capcom and SNK
C-C-C-C-C-chamillionaire fighting
Kramer, what's going in there?

this shit is so hype
Is there one without the Groove portion? I like the VO part of the actual character select screen part.
There is a "Player Select Version 1" and a "Player Select Version 2" (they are just the same song but with different stuff said by the VO, I spliced them together in this vid) but as far as I know there is no version that combines them two. I'll have one up for you in 24 hours.
