Love how Demetri got a complete re-draw and not just pasted from Darkstalkers. What makes this game awesome is how the Capcom characters got the SNK touch - and we know, snk has a way of making their characters look menacing
SNK's death and rebirth clearly shows that sometimes, maybe a lot of the time, the employees and owners aren't the reason companies crumble. But the high management who're more worried about filling their pockets by selling the company than making the company work as they were hired to.
SNK was very respectful with the way they treated Capcom's IP, the sprites are beautiful, specially Chun Li's, who is very stylish in this game. This was the last time we had a Ryu that looked like a proportionate human instead of a giantism patient made of 400 kg of muscle and a head the size of a pea.
Funny enough, the worst sprites in the game are Athena's, who looks as if she came from an atari 2600 game, with no shades at all, just plain white color and yellow eyes. The scenarios were very bland, boring and lifeless, which is a shame coming from the same people that made the scenarios of the fantastic Garou Mark Of The Wolves.
The gameplay however was a bit stiff, just as in Capcom Vs SNK, which is a result, I think, of the difficulty of balancing the signature gameplay quirks of each company. The frantic and pressure focused style of KOF would've destroyed the Capcom characters that are designed for a more deliberate ground control, so SNK had to tone down the agility of the combat to please the Street Fighter fans while preserving their identity.
It's a comendable effort and hopefully we will see a new Capcom vs SNK in the near future, considering both companies are currently on a great roll.
Their Zero sprites are actually really dope, and Demitri actually looks scarier in KOF style than Capcom Style.
Joe Higashi's the announcer
Neo Geo Battle Coliseum recolors Athena's Sprite to have more details and this game should have been better than just depressing and dull which is the game all about
I disagree with the stiff gameplay part. It is not due balance, cause the Alpha series(mainly the third installment of the series) being as much or even more complex and pressure based as any KOF game.
This masterpiece would've been the pinnacle of fighting game, if it was made by 96~98 SNK...
Luis Debnath it would have been interesting if Ryu and Ken and their Street Fighter ilk could roll, run, and hop, hyper hop, and super jump as a real ADV KOF’98 gameplay speed. Capcom vs SNK 2 did an okay job with giving SNK characters, Capcom type Street Fighter gameplay, but the medium attacks of SNK characters (strong, forward) lacked a lot of combo ability. They were just pokes.
Fun Fact:
This game was originally meant to be a sequel to the Neo-Geo Pocket Color's SNK vs. Capcom: The Match of the Millennium released for Game Boy Advance.
I LOVE how this game looks. The Capcom characters don't look like Capcom characters copy/pasted into this game - the entire game looks 100% like an SNK Fighting Game.
SNK characters looked like SNK characters (re-used the SNK sprites)
too bad it played terribly
@@jinkazama7587 They seemed to have reworked and re drew their sprites. They have this game a nice cohesive look.
That's interesting because I hate how this game looks lol
Yeah, snk characters on capcom vs snk have rough edges unlike capcom characters. More effort were given to capcom character designs. For svc chaos, both sides are gorgeus, heck, they even made capcom characters looked better. Though cvs will always have the awesome background and sprites.
This game is the shit.
The art, the music, the stages, new characters, story, gameplay, everything was really interesting.
My friends and I still have small tournaments to this day.
@TETCOM I have it on my phone, too. By mame4roid
My local arcade had it. No one would go to the machine except when someone saw you on it. The lines would form.
I still like the classic SNK art style. So, this game is 9/10 for me
SVC Chaos is actually my favorite game of the Capcom SNK crossover fighters. My friend circle and I used to play this game religiously on the alongside Samurai Shodown V Special, King of Fighters 2002, Marvel vs Capcom 2 and Guilty Gear X2. A lot of people talk smack on SVC Chaos but it just had a charm to it.
Def a hard to find game ....
But NGBC> Capcom fighting jam aka
Capcom attempts Mugen.
Serious Mr. Karate is actually canon. The first time Takuma used the Mr. Karate alias was when he was being blackmailed by Geese Howard and forced to work as his enforcer. He did so using the Mr. Karate alias, and was the last boss of the first Art of Fighting. The persona became more of a joke after he was defeated and freed from Geese. So the (regular) final boss for SNK's side of SVC Chaos was basically AoF1's final boss (who was NOTORIOUSLY hard).
SVC Chaos needs an online re-release, updated graphics, online play and some well-balanced gameplay.
It needs a remake man. The ai and game play could use it
The gameplay was already balanced.
I'll take the online thing only, the game is perfect the way it is, at least for me
This game was so ahead of it's time. The atmosphere of this game and how dark it feels is incredible. Playing it still invokes a feeling of impending doom and dread, with every encounter reeking of desperation and a fight to the death feel.
Ive always thought SNK had some kind of Story Mode around for SNK and Capcom characters in this game but due its rush in releasing it was lost... Id love to know that story in some sort of future destroyed Earth, knowing SNK mayber had something to do with Orochi winning
"Ahead of it's time" is so misused and over used. This game used pretty much the same fight system from KOF 2002 but in 2003. How is that ahead of its time? SVC Chaos looked and felt outdated when it was released. It was stiff, sluggish and slow. It was poorly received because of it. Compared to Capcom Vs SNK 2 which was released in 2001 with a fight system that feels smooth, fast and crisp and it still feels that way now. SVC Chaos gets worse with age.
@Sentinel 88 Sure, just ignore the entirety of what I wrote about the atmosphere of the game and point out something I never addressed, the fighting system. You just wanted an excuse to say, "ahead of its time", is misused and overused it seems. This game has a unique atmosphere (not fighting system).
@@elohym876 Fighting games aren't judged by "atmosphere" They are judged by the mechanics and there is nothing in its atmosphere that was "ahead of its time" as the sprites and backgrounds looked dated when it was released. "feeling of impending doom and dread" "it feels dark" all of this was done better by the Guilty Gear series on PS ONE with much better graphics and an inferior fight system. That game had visuals that were much higher in resolution for its time and no called it "ahead of its time"
@Sentinel 88 You do know I'm entitled to my opinion, right? Your lack of comprehensionin your initial response not withstanding... let's agree to disagree.
You should do a video on The King Of Fighters XIII
😗wait it would need XII explained as well, using the same engine. But distribution was funky as XII was a stripped down beta (limited roster, with tons of music as dlc). Vs XIII was a complete title, tons of unlockables, and an amazing roster. But the engine was marvelous, each character felt alive, and had their own rhythm. I miss its style, wish it was used in XIV.
Kof 98
Agreed!
This game was my indrocution to SNK games in 2011. I got it because it had MMZ Zero. I fell in love with the graphical style, reminded me of 90's pre-rendered style PC games. SNK characters looked so cool.
I remember buying the home cart version for the Neo-Geo AES on launch day. The game cost me $269USD. I now own the Neo-Geo MVS version, and I play it every chance I get.
All right for some 😠
Lucky.
:D was playing SNK vs Capcom yesterday on my homemade bartop :P
I love playing this one on my PSP with cfw. Geese Howard is my favorite character & Red Aremer's stage looks amazing; Like it was ripped straight out of the Berserk anime.
Same here on my AES ;)
Same here on my android tablet. With crt filters of course.
Man, that introduction at the start of the video where you go through SNK's fall from grace and reconstruction is amazing content. You really do deserve many more subs than you get!
Anyway, about the game, I really love the new sprites in it. Guile, Shiki, Dmitry, the Martian, Chun Li, etc. simply look amazing. This game really deserves a lot more exposure than it got, but it was released at an odd time for SNK.
Anyway, thanks for the awesome content!
I agree that he should be more popular than he is, 53k subs is quite a lot...I've been working on my channel for roughly 3 years, although I've only been doing gaming content for about 6 months, and I'm only at 112 subs. Getting your foot in the door as a content creator in an ocean full of content creators, it's next to impossible to garner an audience. I would say about 95% of people don't want to support a channel that has fewer than 20k subs. No one wants to actually be there in the beginning, but everyone wants to claim they were there...
@@Tom_Van_Zandt Make that 113 :) Gonna explore your content now! And yeah, I kind of understand what you mean. Hopefully all this nonsense that UA-cam is doing to protect their advertising interests doesn't make it much worse.
@@AntonioRodriguezSilver Hah! I appreciate that. Watch for my Radical Review of TMNT 4: Turtles in Time for the SNES, dropping this weekend!
Antonio Rodríguez Negrón Yeah, me too. I’ll subscribe to you now.
I'd definitely like to see you do Tatsunoko vs Capcom
what the hell is tatsunuko??
@@andrewortiz9226 Animation company in Japan that did G-Force/Gatchaman, Karas, Speed Racer etc.
@@ticksmilk ok I've heard of speed racer
@Andrew Ortiz I don't know if it's an accurate comparison, but I like to think of Tatsunoko as Japan's equivalent to Hanna-Barbera.
@@SaviorGabriel Why would Capcom make a verses game with tatsunuko, they should of made Capcom vs SNK 3 or Capcom vs Konami (Capcom announced on website Capcom vs Konami) or some other big name company!!
I wish this game was made on the atomiswave arcade system instead on the neo geo
Not me, I own it on my MVS.
I don't think it would've made much of a difference. The games SNK had on there never really seemed to take much advantage of the hardware. The were little more than Neo Geo games with snazzier backgrounds, but still using decade old sprites.
It would look like kof XI .
Somehow I've been click holed into these videos consistently over the course of 2 weeks and I always end up watching the entire thing.
good shit as always. when they brought this one to our arcade it was a big WTF moment, even more so after unlocking some characters.
gotta love 256 colour hugo! stay fresh my man
SNK VS CAPCOM was a big success in brazil on arcade machines and Ps2 because the Snk fight games is so popular in south america ... i love this games
As it was in Argentina, we all love the old school arcade fighting games.
I'm glad this Street fighter series of videos has helped bring in so many more viewers to your channel! It's been quite fun to watch.
I just recently played SVC Chaos my first time on an FPGA Neo-Geo (MiSTer), and have quite enjoyed it so far, besides the often cheesy and broken enemy AI. Akuma's air fireballs completely shut them down, usually though. heh
Top Hat, thank you for covering SVC CHAOS. It's my favorite game of the franchise. :)
I miss fighting games where it's about secret characters and secret bosses, NOT MICROTRANSACTIONS OR A STORY MODE!!!!
Didn't realise this didn't release in the states. Still got my ps2 copy, spent a drunken night (into the morning) playing this with two of my friends, it was my friend Dan's game and he sold it to me after I was putting a one sided beating on him and my other friend despite them playing and practicing it for a couple of weeks before I had even played it and for that I will always have fond memories of this game.
SVC chaos was a game I really loved back in the day. I still play it online sometimes.
Isn't Xbox Live for the original Xbox gone?
@@SkalgarXLR Online on mame, not Xbox.
Your videos are beyond in-depth and informative. The story of SNK's CEO reclaiming his own company back is a great feel-good story. Subscribed!
My favorite CVS game is SVC chaos and CVS 2. 🐺💚💚💚✌
Yeah thanks for covering SVC Chaos I am one of those who asked that you would so thanks. I thought the game was off when I first played on xbox back in the day cause I was so use to capcom graphics but appreciated it after a while and even more today. I still have my xbox copy.
I love SVC games. 🐺👌💚💚💚🎮
I was in Akihabara in 2018, and I bought a Japanese PS2 just so I can play this game again. It's a shame SNK doesn't seem interested in re-releasing it. They could fix a few things while they port if over, and maybe slap a couple new character in while they are at it... easy. (Evil Ryu and Shadow Lady and well... anyone from KOF really. Ash Crimson and Kusanagi?)
Be crazy if snk made a svc chaos 2
Happy to own the English AES copy!
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom please
SNK vs Capcom Chaos was a fun challenging game. It may not be as popular as Capcom vs SNK, but it's still enjoyable nontheless
I got a couple of SvC comics following the game story. The drawings are amazing
Did you ever play Art of Fighting?? Takuma wears the Mister Karate mask there
SvC Chaos! Yeaaaaaaaaa!
I love the art work on SNK vs Capcom Chaos and music and I like how this game has a darker feel to it!! I like when someone challenges you, the announcer says "Here comes a new Challenger" lol
I've always was left a strange feeling about liking this game . You hit the nail on the review
I just got this game in today for the AES and it’s one of my favorites on the system. It’s has aged well but the prices hasn’t lol
I loved this game. I entered a contest to win a SvC cabinet but I didn’t win.
I actually have good memories of this game. I loved playing KoF fans with Dictator and Claw because there's nothing like them in kof.
A rough game, to be fair, but enjoyable.
I remember seeing this for the Xbox in blockbuster when I was around 9. I didn't have one at the time but I had both CVS games and knew that I needed this one.
10 years later I remembered it that fateful day and rushed out and bought a copy and an Xbox. I was a little bit disappointed. The atmosphere was bland and nowhere near as exciting as the OG CVS titles. In more recent years I've come to appreciate it for what it was. I definitely liked the inclusion of Firebrand and MMZero. Definitely glad you covered this one. I was exited to learn more!
Im New at your Channel, and I Will stay, I loved the video, and I want to know If you can cover Neo Geo Battle Coliseum, some people say It was to be SvCchaos 2
There are 2 Mr Karate : The original ( takuma ) and Mr Karate II : an older Ryo Sakasaki and he is on NeoGeo Battle Coliseum
Mr. Karate was intended to be an insult to ryu, From the game creator of snk. So capcom fired back with dan. The joke is that ryu(mr.karate) is Ryo's dad, to be defeated by Ryo in art of fighting 2. The creator of ryu was a guy who left the streetfighter 2 team to form snk.
Loved this game and the Graphic Novel version.
I love this game
Yesssss TopHat covered it! Got a notification and instantly clicked on it.
I played SVC Chaos arcade machine at peter piper pizza when I was 9.
I love this game! I play it emulators all the time! I can never get past the second stage, though.
Takuma wore that mask when he worked for geese howard
why do Mexicans love king of fighters better than Street fighter lol
@@andrewortiz9226 Because the NeoGeo was a much more sensible purchasing investment when you consider that one machine outlasted the CPS-1, CPS2, CPS-3, and NAOMI and just required an update to the marquee and a new cartridge to swap between games from as far back as 1990 to as late as 2003, making it far more appealing to the arcades of lower income areas in Latin America compared to the bigger budget Capcom and Acclaim dominating US arcades. Paying the equivalent of a few hundred US dollars for a brand new game makes a lot more sense than a few thousand if you can get away with it.
To be honest though, even as an American who grew up with Street Fighter Alpha, 3, Darkstalkers, and MvC2, I honestly nowadays just find SNK's fighters to be more fun. Real Bout 2, Garou, and KoF 2002 are really something special.
Takuma found out the fishy business of the evil mr big that is why mr big kidnaps yuri and takuma sakazaki had no choice to work for mr big wearing a mask as mr karate, art of fighting 1 lore
KOF is better than SF. That's it.
Oh, and Geese was Mr. Big's boss too...so if people worked for Mr. Big, they worked for Geese. Simple.
A SvC Chaos 2 would blow everyone's mind. Imagine using ArcSoft cartoon style witch this rooster.
That would be a dream come true. Would outdo CVS2 in a heartbeat. Not to mention the roster they could work with, and the music library
I prefer this style of graphics if they were to do a sequel.
Sf2 will always be my favourite fighting game, it's so iconic and playable throughout the years from the arcade, to the 16 bit consoles right up to the collections on modern machines. However I always thought that snk's fighters and character designs were a bit more cooler, alternative and maybe baddass for want of a better term. A bit like comparing pop music of the 90's to grunge and alternative rock.
Actually the Grand Front Step, Gaurd Blowback and Hard Knockdown Throw don't consume a full bar of meter. Its actually something like 1/8th of meter.
Also the game has a Cancel mechanic as well, but it can only be done when the power meter reaches "Maximum". You can cancel specials into other specials or specials into supers.
HK+LP or forward+forward on block is the Grand Front Step
LP+LK or HP+HK are the Hard Knockdown Throw
LP+LK when normal thrown before you hit the ground is air recovery
HP+HK on block is the Gaurd Blowback and works like a CD attack in KOF but doesn't do any damage
I absolutely LOVED this game on the X-Box - so much I fried two systems after continuous hours of non stop play. At that point I tracked down a MVS with the game and it's a real showpiece when friends come over for some fighting game Mayhem.
I had this game on original xbox in 2003 when I was 19 years old, ah the memories.
I have the Japanese PS2 version, the announcer isn't clipped on his quotes (the PAL release cut out a few of his quotes), nor is it the NGBC announcer found on the X-Box release.
Nice one, loved the Playmore info at the front 😊
The art and roster of SVC Chaos were outstanding. I thought the sprites looked WAY better than the CVS titles. A shame the game wasn't more popular, but that's probably heavily influenced by the actual mechanics not being fantastic. I was personally especially fond of Serious Mr. Karate, and I loved the inclusion of Dimitri, Tessa, and Zero.
Really enjoyed this video, and interesting (albeit sad) to learn about SNKs problems at the time.
I enjoy playing SVC Chaos for the novelty value but it def feels rushed, even compared to early KoF games. Athena is great though, and mega OP :)
Cool to know it’s quite an achievement this game was ever made.
Do you have any issue's with pulling of the moves consistently ? Compared to other fighters ? Or was that just me. I felt so let down by this particular version lol
I liked this game and its art very very dark and subdued but its felt mechanics was definitely slower than SNK 2. Still a fun game tho.
I always got a laugh out of those reviewers that were knocking the graphics. The game was released for a system/console that debuted in 1990. Of course it wasn't as graphically advanced as the Naomi Board 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The closet I got to play this game (If one can call it like that) was in Mugen back then when I had most of the SVC Chaos roaster and stages downloaded.
I therefore can not tell how close those were in terms of gameplay but I really always liked the character design and lifebars.
Download winkawaks emulator and the rom for this game, it runs like a dream.
I just tuned in to hear him say Big Daddy Top Hat 🎩
Seriously though I never knew about what happened with SNK. That was a cool story for sure. Thanks for that!
All this time (and maybe I'm typing it wrong), but I thought Aruze was pronounced Ar-U-z-EH. Or that's how I heard people pronounce it when they were a major sponsor of K-1 Kickboxing shows in the early 2000s.
Ive mentioned on here many times in the past that as a Brit, I place no value on pronouncing words a specific way as long as I am understood. Pronunciation varies completely differently here from town to town. I am an Englishman who can only speak English sadly.
Beautiful 2D fighting games will forever look beautiful. This crossover would be awesome if this has the same stylized art design in higher definition with the fluid animation of street fighter 3: 2nd impact.
SF3 was blocky 4:3, what are you talking about?
SF3 Second Impact features 16:9 and looks amazing.
great vid as always, Mr Parliament
This game is my most favorite of all the crossover capcom fighting games. I like the gritty art work and sound effects
To me this game is awesome! I actually like this more than Capcom VS SNK 1 and 2 mainly due to the graphics style reminiscing that of the KOF games (Particularly like you said, KOF 2002) And honestly, i like the roster choices in here as well. Although its still mainly SNK VS Street Fighter 2 (Like all the other basically), we at least got too see more Capcom characters, like Dimitri, Tessa/Tsubasa, Red Arremer/Firebrand (By the way, the BEST design for Firebrand I have ever seen to this day), Andre the Giant (Hugo of course), and most importantly, MegaMan/Rockman Zero (Also called Alpha in Japan). Better to have at least one Rockman rep in the SNK VS Capcom series than none because i feel Rockman should have been included somewhere somehow.
And I also like it because of how the game feels and plays in contrast to Capcom VS SNK. It just plays like a KOF game and me liking the KOF series it was a great time playing this. I just play SVC Chaos like i play KOF (only without the dodging, rolling, running, and blow backs) just like i play Capcom VS SNK 1 and 2 like I play Street Fighter. I feel those who dont like this or prefer this may not only be due to graphical comparison, but also just subjective preference in gameplay. I dont think the game is perfect by any means especially given that characters in the SVC Chaos roster arent balanced well (Goenitz in example), but this is a solid fighter worth playing especially for those who like the KOF series.
I just feel this game is kinda unfairly looked down and wasnt given a more fair chance by the general audience just because it was a new and anticipated crossover on older hardware. Yes theres no denying the Naomi and Dreamcast have more graphical power so they can produce more advanced visuals, but i dont think graphics alone is what make a game good or better, but the aesthetics or content, the feeling of the game, execution (which could have been better but given SNK's financial situation of course), mechanics, and replay value is what makes a game good or better. Especially when it comes to fighting games. Then worry about the graphics. You just dont wanna game to go through another Marvel VS Capcom Infinite situation where the game had a focus on the graphics (and online but thats irrelevant in this case) and then it wounds up flopping due to lack of things i mentioned before. Other than that take what i say with a grain of salt for this is just an opinion of mine.
Not everyone who plays fighting games is hardcore. Some of us just enjoy the lore and artwork. While the gameplay in CVS2 is excellent. The cookie cutter sprites and stupid backgrounds are unsightly today. You could take any screenshot of SVC Chaos even today and still be impressed at its timeless beauty. To each their own, but the games are equally matched. The same can be said of CVS1 against the NGPC version. That pocket fighter is a masterpiece.
Did you call Ryu "Pallette Swapped Ken" 😂😂 The disrespect!! 🤣😭😭 Great vids! 👍 I love this games art!!
Great stuff.. will you review other SNK greats like KOFUM2002 and Neo Geo Battle Colesium
18:40 It's BS that this never got a release on PS2 in the US. I remember back in 2005 (I think it was) when the game was available for pre-order on PS2 and then soon after the pre-orders were taken down.
SNK Vs Capcom Chaos was okay but Capcom Vs SNK 2 on GC and PS2 is way better to me
The only ps2 2d fighter I couldn't get in the states
My favorite fighting game of all time. I own it on Neo Geo AES, PS2, and Xbox. It is simply fighting game bliss...
government bills should be voted on by a best out of 3 street fight
My absolute fave version of this crossover!
Been waiting for someone to go over the history of this game. Awesome.
I know there must be some licensing issues, but I wish this game would get an ACA rerelease on modern consoles...along with Double Dragon, Kabuki Klash and Matrimelee.
I'd really enjoy a video covering one of Capcom's best licensed fighting games. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Heritage for the Future.
Jojo reference.
LOL! Street Fighter 2 VS The King of Fighters.
I agreed, Top Hat. 😂
That's literally what they did with the Capcom sprites lol they all fresh outta SF2 that's my least liked SF beside the first one 😂
You could say Serious Mr. Karate is based on the Art of Fighting 1 version of the character
Wow, I had no idea Megaman Zero had been in a fighting game. Out of all the ones to be in, I did not even think this was a possibility. Also, the Mars people is another really surprising pick.
Another legendary Mad history episode.
Please let the fighting documentaries never end!
My personal experience with this game.
Little buzz when it came out. Later I played the ps2 version. It was an okay game, but some backgrounds really look dull, while others look amazing.
They had this gem at a local laundry mat my mom use to take us to in my early teen years. Out of all of Capcom crossover games, this one hits different.
I love this game. The art style. The gameplay mechanics. The huge roster. Everything. I got for $15 brand new 11 years ago. One of the best purchases I've ever made.
Hell yeah, another Bluster Kong fan.
In the future if they do decide to make a Snk vs Capcom Chaos 2 game these are the characters I want to see:
SNK
------
Fighters History Dynamite: Mizoguchi, Ray, Fei Lin, Ryoko
World Heroes: Fuuma, Hanzou, K.Dragon, Captain Kidd
The Last Blade:
Moriya, Rekka Lee, Musashi
Fight Fever main characters, Ninja Combat or Ninja Commando main characters, Ninja Masters characters, Shock Trooper main characters, 8-Man main characters, King of The Monster characters, Savage Reign characters
Capcom
________
Asura, Guy, Cody, Fei Long, Scorpio, Samanosuke, Gunlock, Battle Circuit characters, Alien Vs Predator characters, Cyberbots characters, Power Stone characters, Dark Stalker characters, Claire Redfield, Leon S. Kennedy, Magic Sword characters, Dungeon and Dragons characters, Jojo Bizarre characters, cadillacs and Dinosaur characters
Sick and tired of seeing the same cut and paste characters in these versus fighting games. We need to see fresh new fighting faces.
It def has an interesting roster choice with the SamSho characters, Demitri, and Zero but it's a step down from CvS and even Neo Geo Pocket game. Gameplay should have straight up been KOF style, with multiple jumps, run instead of dash, close HP/HK for throw instead of LP+LK (and whiffing throws drains meter dafaq), and max mode should have been more KOF 2002 style instead of it automatically activating when you get a full bar. They were trying to appeal to SF players with those gameplay mechanics plus the 1-on-1 fighting but they were already turned off by the 4 buttons.
People complained that the backgrounds
Were boring and dead even though this
Game is suppose to have a darker tone .
While CVS had different grooves and
2 on 2 or 3on 3 battles this only had 1 on 1.
Is my favorite SVC game 🐺👌💚💚💚 I love this game.
Yay! Top hat gaming man time!
Eye rocky Iori gets me every time. hahaha
I remember when this came out in my local arcade in 2003 and then a few months later I came across the exclusive Xbox version at my local game store. I instantly bought it at the $30 retail price and played it so much. I played many matches online via Xbox Live at the time. This game is so underrated and obscure. I wish I still had it. Love the art style, character selection, and the dialogue before matches.
What happened to it?
@@SkalgarXLR I sold my entire game, movie, and music collection 7 years ago.
I own this for AES and I have fun with it. Its very unique and I can appreciate that and itt holds up well today. Its a classic 1 on 1 battle with lots of neat hidden characters you can play as with a simple directional combination in character select. Demitri FTW!!
ive been playing fighting games for 25 years.
"Violent Ken"
Now that sounds like a sick move
I remember when this first came out in USA arcades. First character I chose? MMZ style Zero.
Ah I see you are a man of culture as well
You need to do Capcom vs SNK 2. I loved that game. Too be honest just played red earth, good review
Fun Fact: Some of the SNK character sprites created for this game, including Genjuro, Shiki, Athena, and Mars People, would go on to be featured in Neo Geo Battle Colosseum.
If there's one gaming wish I could have granted, it would be to have a brand new Capcom and SNK fighting collaboration. I'd even ask for both Felicia and Cham Cham to be on the roster, but perhaps that's just asking for too many miracles at once! ;)
Why are all these stories Mad THGM? 😂😂😂
I watched through this whole thing, and never heard mentioned once about the Graphic Novel that was tied to this game explaining the plot way better then the game ever did. It's not a post apocalyptic world it's literally a world built for fights between these uh, participants
What's the next 10 fighting games that are going to come out that SNK/CAPCOM/NETHER REALM/LJM/D.C./MARVEL/IMAGE COMICS/VARIANT COMICS/UDON/SHONEN JUMP/PORN/SATOMURA VERSUS KANA_ASUKA of WWE/FATE STAY NIGHT/NINJA GAIDEN 2/SONY/UNIVERSAL/WU-TANG FIGHTING GAMES/DEF JAM FIGHTING GAMES/MORTAL KOMBAT/TEKKEN will come up with as an ultimate crossover???
