Whilst trying to search for an explanation for Zantetsu's glitch where he repeatedly bounces on the opponent i came across WiLMaster002's channel. Although i've still not found an explanation of how to do the glitch i did find a couple of interesting videos on this channel.The first is for Last Blade 2 and demonstrates how you can use an unblockable air attack on the opponent waking up. From the video description:This video showcases various setups for the Unblockable Air Hit Glitch.The glitch is that for a brief period as a character is waking...

EuroGamer has posted up a review of the Walnut CMVS unit created by Analogue Interactive.It gives a brief rundown on things like MVS vs AES, the hardware itself and software.Even if you have no interest in this particular unit it is still a good read for those who may go down the CMVS route at some point. Even owning a CMVS unit already myself i personally enjoyed reading the article. You can check out the article here, and if you haven't read it...
Decided to buy Fast Striker for my iPod Touch just a moment ago, as i can't afford to buy the MVS cart and not particularly interested in owning it on the Dreamcast, but for £1.79 on the iPod i thought why not?As you can see above i've embedded a video i recorded earlier, but it's pretty blurry...(If you wanna check out a clear video, there's this one of the mvs version from the NGDEVTEAM Youtube Channel.)So far my thoughts of the game are fairly...

Giby has just uploaded a set of Last Blade videos from a tournament held in TRF, the date is marked '5/26/10' but i'm not sure whether that's a typo and it was actually this year or not ?Quite crazy watching this game in high level play, i've dabbled on it in the arcade in the past and at home on MVS cart, but never knew about some of the stuff i've seen in these vids.Particularly the Zantetsu knife bounce thing is pretty dirty...Though i still found...

Saw this on SpekSNK just now.A new title is being developed by NG:DEVTEAM for the Neo Geo and Dreamcast called Gun-Lord.Described by the official website as a 'EuroStyle Platformer' looking at the screenshots it reminds me a little bit of Turrican.For those who don't know NG:DEVTEAM have been devoted to creating new titles for the DreamCast and Neo Geo systems, their other titles to date include Last Hope, and Fast Strikers. Fast Strikers has also...
chihuahuakof sent me a message earlier today on Youtube asking me to play some games with him on 02UM via XBLA. Though we played a bit later than originally planned, as i went to the MCM Expo, we got in about an hours worth of games.I believe he is based in Mexico (at least according to his Youtube channel) so there was a bit of lag on my side but he is very good and beat me down quite badly.Particularly i liked his play with Kim, Clark and Daimon.I'm uploading the matches now to my Youtube channel, there are 6 in total, but as of now there is...

SNKPlaymore has just opened up a new website for their new pachislot machine Sky Love 3, though probably not of much interest to all of us outside of Japan who cannot play it...So far the site only has the main page, so nothing much to see.Though if you go to the website of the previous game in the series you can find the movie page, which has some demonstration videos of how that machine works to get an idea of maybe how this one would be like.I've...

Was messing around in practice mode in 02UM as i wanted to try something i saw in the majijam video i watched earlier today. (Kensou's close qcfx2+AC -> qcfx2+BD)After doing that i randomly just found out if you hit the opponent with the jump~qcf+B the same time the fireball comes back from his HSDM it knocks him down with no power up.Maybe it's already common knowledge, i found it pretty amusing anyway l...
Just saw this piece of news on Andriasang, Samurai Shodown character Iroha has just joined the cast of the new Queen's Gate Spiral Chaos game for the PSP.This is not the first time for an SNKP and Queen's Gate crossover, a game book for Queen's Gate was released featuring the bouncy Mai Shiranui a couple of years back.Additionally Mai is also featured in this game, as well as Mina from the Samsho series.The game will release in Japan at the end of...
Saw this on NeoEmpire just now, Youtube user majijam has uploaded a set of 'Death Combo' videos (100% combos) over the past year.I've only embedded the Psycho Soldier Team video, but you can check out the rest on his Youtube channel.There are quite a few KOF combo videos on his channel including also single character combo movies and KOFXI combo movies. It's well worth checking out and make sure to subscribe to his channel for when he makes some mo...

Another set of videos from a tournament held in VERSUS is being uploaded by SMOAI2010, only part one is available as of now but some nice matches in just this one video. Some good pressure tactics with Athena, been a while since i've seen a video with her in it, so learnt some new things. Mai goes on a bit savage in the second match as well. I'd imagine the rest will follow within the next few hours, so something for me to look forward to watch tomorrow. Also linnesaka has uploaded quite a few new Real Bout 2 matches from TRF in these past few...
This was actually posted two days ago, didn't notice it until just now, but the owner of Replay Games left a small message with some background information about the store on NeoEmpire's forums. Hey guys, nice to see some enthusiam To give you some background we're a gaming and hobby store here in Northern Ireland and we've been going since 1997. The day we opened I had a Dr Who Pinball and Woody cab with WWF Wrestlefest and a 36" CRT widescreen beast of a machine with Tekken 3 running in it. Our ethos was to not only be a shop but a...
I've just been looking at some old posts in the SNKPlaymore subforums on NeoEmpire and came across some combo videos from about 5 years ago for various SNK games on combometro's channel. First up is for Real Bout 2:KOF 96/97/98:KOF NeoWave / Neo Geo Battle Colliseum:Some of the combos featured are situation/character specific, but it's always pretty cool to see what is possible in games given the right circumstances. (Though not quite as extreme as the Tool Assisted videos i've watched recently.)If you're interested there are a few more combo videos...

Another one of these Tool Assisted gameplay videos i came across on Nico Video this time featuring KOF97. This one although not quite as amusing as the previous KOF2000 one, still does have some funny parts in it as well as a few 'wtf' moments.Haven't played 97 properly for a really long time but still remember the Yamazaki infinite. I never knew B.Mary had off the floor grabs though but i'm a bit unsure how that works (or whether it is normally...
Saw this on DreamCancel just now that KOF95 has been rated by the ESRB for the PSP/PS3/Wii, which should hopefully mean the next wave of Neo Geo Station games should be on their way soon.I believe the Wii version was actually already released (via Virtual Console, and Orochi Collection) quite a while ago, and 95 has been available on the PSP via the Orochi Collection. The PS3 version is available currently in Japan via the PS1 Classics series, which...

Was browsing Nico Video just now and came across this amusing video of a Tool Assisted Speed Run of KOF2000.Never knew anyone made these for KOF, i've only really watched Super Mario ones before. It's technically not much of a speed run though, more of a showcase than anything else.Some of the things shown include Kim sliding across the floor with his foot stomp, Seth doing his counter over and over again, and multiplying Baos walking in the air....
So in this entry i'm going to have a quick look at the Geibun Mook King of Fighters 96 Characters Book, i can't remember whether my friend picked this up from a car boot sale or a used book store but i know it never cost the Y1280 printed on the front. I'm not sure if anyone has ever seen these kinds of books before, but they are pretty much like an extensive instruction book. I own another one of these i bought from Hong Kong years ago for KOF99...
