mango sentinel posted:Anyone have experience with this? Coming back to this, the Neo Geo X is what it is, but the controller is a reasonable facsimile of the real thing, especially if SNK won't make another one of their own. I prefer it to any other controller for playing SNK games, and it even works with KOF 14 for PS4 if you go into legacy controller settings. Depending how you're emulating, you may have to use Joy2Key or something.

mango sentinel posted:Do you know if it works with the Switch since that's where the bulk of my ACA collection is? Ugh, as far as I can tell it does not, and I have certainly tried. My ACA stuff is on the Switch too, and I greatly desire a solution for that. If anyone knows of any sort of hack, I'm all ears.

Right? I might try seeing if I can set something up with a PS4 adapter or something, but I'm not hopeful. It also doesn't work natively with KoF 13 on PC or anything ported by Code Mystics, but as I mentioned, Joy2Key gets around that.

They were talking about his taunt being integrated into his gameplay. Could you imagine if it worked like Art of Fighting and he could drain his opponent's meter?

I like that KOF roster list, but I don't believe it There aren't any brand new characters at all, which seems fishy, considering XIV had a lot. I guess XIII didn't have any either, but that had a rough development process. It's sacrilege, but I'm kinda hoping for a playable Jeff

Some classy, Shakespearean actor as M. Bison. Like Patrick Stewart but younger. They can recognize camp when they see it and secretly want desperately to be big scene stealing hams, which the role of Bison would require.

istewart posted:I'm still an FG newbie, but I have to say, out of all the vintage ones I've been playing, I love Garou the most. The inputs are really smooth, and sometimes I'm able to surprise myself. I wish they had included Terry's bomber jacket look in Smash Bros as an alt costume. I've never seen any explanation for his name change, but I'm guessing it was done to increase interest in the Pakistani market, as Neo Geo machines were generally more readily available than other fighting game cabinets in regions outside of the US and Japan. As for the spelling, SNK's localizations of the era can be very strange sometimes, but I don't think the idea was "lol butts". I had seen Bhatt anglicized as Butt once or twice prior to that, so I think they just didn't think it was weird at all. They seem to be keeping up with the name scheme; He appears in KOF XIV in the Art of Fighting team ending, referred to as Khushnood, but I don't know if SNK has put a huge amount of thought into what name they should go with.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:The two widely-held reasons for the change were that SNK USA thought the original name was too close to the MMA fighter Ricco Rodriguez, and that Khushnood Butt was taken from one of their business partners in Pakistan, similar to how Kim Kaphwan was named after a Korean associate. This is probably more accurate info tbh But yeah, Neo Geo games were generally popular in a lot of places around the world that other fighting games didn't have the reach for since the arcade machines were relatively cheap to swap out cartridges, especially for older games that dropped in price quickly. Also, since the platform was supported for a very long time, an old junky machine that's been sitting in the corner for ten years could conceivably get a brand new game for it.

K9999's not hard to salvage. Just recolor Nameless, keep the name, drop the goopy arm and other obvious references to Tetsuo, and you're good. A good makeover's all you need. Nothing's stopped SNK from putting 2001 and regular 2002 on the Switch either. I think it's just that he's not popular enough to bother. I think there's going to be some sort of NESTS presence in XV, since it's implied they seem to be doing something in XIV. Dead characters are on the table, and NESTS seems to be in better shape right now than the Orochi crew, considering Orochi came out half-baked at the end of XIV. That said, I don't know what a NESTS team would look like since your options are Foxy, who I think is more loyal to Kula than NESTS, Angel, who's out of the organization, K9999, who's K9999, and a bunch of bosses. Maybe a new character or two like they did with Sylvie.

I'm real bad at combos, but I'm best at them in Marvel vs Capcom 3. It only requires a little practice to do a basic Light > Med > Hard > Launcher > a few random hits and maybe a special > super that works with a variety of characters. I occasionally try SFV combo missions and always feel like a loser when I have to do HP > Cr LK > EX SRK and do a QCF move on the extremely rare occasion I can get the link to work.

I think this one's Vanessa. I'm assuming this is another member of Mary's team, and if she's not on the Women's Team, I don't really know what makes sense other than some configuration of Vanessa/Seth/Ramon. But then, maybe she is on the Women's Team and Yuri or Mai isn't.

So we've got Mai, Yuri, Mary, and Luong, and no definitive confirmation of the Women's Team yet. Is Luong on Mary's team? If so, why? If one of those two is on the Women's Team, where would Mai or Yuri fit?

The contract with Capcom likely doesn't have an expiration date, and if so, Bamco would be fools to give it up. Card Fighters DS happened because SNK still had the rights to make one more crossover game from the original agreement, as I understand it.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:Why are they specifying it as DOA6 as if that series ain't done and dusted as a fighting game franchise Licensing a singular game is often cheaper and easier than a whole franchise, and DOA6 is going to have all the characters they want to include. When KOFAS did a Samurai Shodown collaboration, it was specifically for SS4. It's my understanding that the KOF for Girls game licensed KOF 2002 and could only use characters who appeared in that one. It's still a lot of characters and almost all of the popular ones.

This looks like longer hair to me so either Athena or Kula, but Athena would likely have some sort of outline of a hair band or something, so I'm going Kula for this one. I note we still don't know the third member of the Women's Team, or even if there is one.

This is 100% what I hoped they were going to do with K9999, if they were ever going to do anything. All he needed was new hair, more focus on fire abilities, new voice actor, and a change in the look of that one super and he's good to show up again. Nothing about Tetsuo was intrinsic to his character.

From what I understand, the DLC teams have been datamined, too. It's my understanding that they're all non-canonical MOTW Team: Rock, B. Jenet, Gato Southtown Team: Geese, Billy, Yamazaki Orochi Team: Orochi Chris, Orochi Yashiro, Orochi Shermie Samurai Shodown Team: Nakoruru, Haohmaru, Darli Dagger Doesn't look like we're getting Kim, sorry. Maybe there'll be more seasons down the line. There's also Omega Rugal as a DLC edit character or possibly an unlock. He's not the final boss.

night slime posted:It looks like there's also bosses that are codenamed ReVerse, Otoma=Raga, and Omega Rugal, as well as possibly 1 more DLC character they didn't list at all in between the numbered SamSho characters. Yeah. Just as a sanity check though, this is all datamined info, so the pieces may fit differently than expected, or they're not what's really there at all. Maybe those bosses are one of the DLC teams. I'm a little surprised they didn't cover their tracks a bit more, after that SamSho DLC datamine a while back. It probably wasn't a priority though in order to get the new demo out the door as the release nears.
