[@jerebyrd2563]

Capcom vs SNK 1 the 4 button layout works the best, I hate MP and MK all low and high for me, for that and the coolest intros to matches make this a far superior game than the second.

[@PKSkyler]

@@jerebyrd2563 Nah the extended roster and the new mechanics plus more attacks with MP + MK makes CvS2 much better.

Never played the first but i will try it out soon. The second game is on a pedestal along with mvsc2

The 2nd game is better overall, but yhe 1st one has a much stronger presentation. Those stage intros are still unmatched.

[@reyemilio00]

This overview of the Capcom vs SNK series is fantastic! Thank you for including SvC Chaos, as this game is criminally overlooked. Despite it's flaws, I found the mechanics (Guard Cancel Front Step, Front Grand Step, and Exceed) to be nice additions to the game. I also believe that, while CvS2 is superlative, CvS1 is also not given it's just due. The stage intros are some of the best I've ever seen, even to this day, and the it's very well polished game overall.

[@thecunninlynguist]

Loved CvS2. Such a classic game. A shame that this crossover came about right when SNK would cease to exist.

[@mrsupergt1]

Yea I'd myself personally associate this with the fact the company was sold to gambling machines in japan and the parent company had no interest in dealing with the video game culture or appealing to its fans outside of panchiko slot machines that and how senior management just rushed out the Snk version of SVC chaos .....instead of taking full advantage of the deal and developing a deep and wonderful ultimate version of KOF 99 that included capcom characters .....had they started development and focused on it as the next KOF game after KOF 98/99 it probably would have been way better then KOF 2000

in Chinese, the pronunciation of VS can kinda sound like “beat the crap out of”, so some Chinese gamers referred to the first game as Capcom beating the crap out of SNK characters due to balancing favoring Capcom and vice versa for the second. Extra fun fact.

[@eddylex4921]

Great video, but you could have mentioned at some point the creator of almost every title included in that series Takashi Nishiyama. And how he was responsible for getting the series off the ground. As SNK was struggling financially at the time Takashi thought up the cross over and contacted Okamoto at Capcom and convinced him as he felt that it would be a win win for both companies (source: interview 1up presents issue 3) Of course we all know that Capcom would come out the bigger winner in the end of this. Also Takuma Sakazaki is called Mr.Karate as his fist game was Street Smart were he was known as Karate Man. Street Smart was SNK's second fighting game ever, and some of the music in Street Smart was featured in there next fighting game Fatal Fury.

[@StewiesRetroGaming]

Fantastic history on the game mate and love this title a lot. One of my favourite 2d fighter and think the roster is spot on as well. Loads a characters I feel comfortable using right off the bat Was a fun change of pace from previous ones I'd played. Nice review as always 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🤩☕

CvS2 was and still is one of the best fighters. As a huge fan of KOF and SF, this game was a godsend. I loved Capcom's sprites of all the SNK characters and some of the new sprites of Capcom characters like Eagle and Maki. And that stk. Was so in love with that game

[@pheenmachine]

One of the most standout features to me from the KOF and SF series were the music. Tones and melodies that gave you all you needed to know about the character, much like a film score. In fact, it's my only complaint against SFA3. Once Capcom started going for more EDM or Hip-Hop (Both perfectly fine styles of music) in general, getting away from character based themes, it was a downhill trend IMO.

[@mrsupergt1]

Imagine that if the SNK vs Capcom Neo Geo Pocket color game that just came out on Nintendo Switch sold well enough that both companies made a Collection that included a HD Remix version that not only included the classic games in their OG versions but they took their time and made an Ultra Hyper version of CVS 2 that had all the characters and gameplay of CVS 2 but included all the stages of CVS 1 , 2 and even SvC Chaos linking all the stages and characters .....meaning you had all the beautiful stages of CVS 1 and 2 and remix updated versions of SvC chaos ....

This series paved the way for both devs to show their stuff. No matter which platform. Loved CvS 1&2, never played the Neo Geo entry because it was difficult to find. SvC.. That is a sore spot.

You said to correct you if you were wrong… as far as “home” consoles, you are correct that this was the first fighter from Capcom on a Nintendo system, however, the GameBoy Color and the GameBoy Advance did each receive games from Capcom; Street Fighter Alpha came out on the GameBoy Color while Street Fighter Alpha 3 and Super Street Fighter II Turbo: Revival came out on the GameBoy Advance.

SvC Chaos was in fact rushed as the reviews said. The second deal Capcom and SNK made had a termination date after which the licensed characters from the other company could no longer be used. SNK, after all its trials and tribulations regaining control over its videogame properties, got a late start on development and asked Capcom to extend the license a few more months so that SNK could complete and polish the game. Capcom flat out refused. SNK has been bitter about this ever since.
