Whenever I think of SNK, this is the song that comes to mind. Not from the most esteemed game in their catalogue, but something about this track is a concentrated version of everything awesome about an SNK tune.

On an unrelated note, the fuck is up with Kim? How could they let one character have so much versatility? Pretty much every version of him is decent and similar to 3s Chun-Li.

>> No.1296872

I always grew up with Capcom fighters, so maybe I'm missing something. Why do some SNK characters just have less moves than others? Elizabeth and Vanessa are good examples, love them as characters but they just can't do as much as say King or Terry.

Do their other benefits outweigh that downside? I know I still play a decent game with Vanessa but Elizabeth is just lacking.

>> No.1296879

There will always be characters who are more overpowered than others (true balance is next to impossible in 2D fightan) but watch enough tourney videos and you'll be convinced that the characters are just as good as the people using them.

Less moves means nothing. It's about how those moves allow you to control the other player's space and options to attack.

If you actually mained Vanessa, you'd know that.

Because unlike Fatal Fury, Samurai Shodown, Art of Fighting and KOF, the Last Blade games never got a wide release outside of Japan. They're about as niche as SNK got. A shame too, because they're gorgeous.

He generally has his target combos to balance his lack of command moves. Elizabeth just straight up can do like 4 things.

Ahhhh! I love The Last Blade/The Last Blade 2. One of my favorite fighting games of all time. I am still hoping for a sequel... that will never happen...

>>1297051
Same here, friend. I like Capcom's fighting games and all, but SNK... I like the characters and their fighting games generally more. Darkstalkers/Vampire Savior and Street Fighter is nice, but when put with the King of Fighters and the Last Blade, I prefer SNK's games. I tend to just like the feel and the characters of SNK's games more, though Capcom is still pretty neat.

>>1299762
I don't know about Samurai Showdown. I never got as much into it as I did Last Blade. I kind of glimpsed over the games a little bit, but never got really into it. I always thought it was really strange that the characters would turn all red during the fight once their power meter was full or getting full. Which Samurai Showdown is regarded as the greatest? I would be willing to give it another go.

Yup! I have the Arranged Soundtrack of 2002 UM its quite fantastic.

I assume you know, since you said Tetsuo and all, the reason K9999 was removed was because of the blatant copyright from the movie Akira. A shame too K9999 had one hell of an odd move set.

Also damn was SNK's promo artwork good.

Shinkiro used to be THE artist for SNK (you can tell when they got him to do the SNK side fro CVS 1/2). After the company went under, he joined Capcom and recently he switched back to something similar to his old KOF 94 style, with bold outlines and bright colors.
