CvS2 was a lightning bolt when it hit. What's wild is that it released on September 11, 2001. We pre-order imported it for our Dreamcasts but due to all flights being grounded due to the attacks there was no chance that we were getting our import shipped to us in the States for weeks. Thanks to the pirate scene, though, my crew were playing it that very night of release. The game helped to soften the reverberations of the tragedy for a lot of FGC members, as we had something to focus on that brought joy during such a dark time. I'll always be thankful to Capcom vs. SNK 2 for that.

[@kadosho02]

I remember hearing that happened. Not the best day of memory. At least it was still released. I played CvS2 on a friend's import console. Never will forget

[@elijahbowers1]

Just happened to be watching this today and Terry and Mai literally just got announced for SF6 lol. This aged like fine wine.

[@dougexists]

So, to clarify on the artwork situation, CvS1 was a really strange mess on that front. Shinkiro and Daigo Ikeno were the artists for the Capcom characters, doing the SNK and Capcom groove art respectively. On the SNK side, Kinu Nishimura did the Capcom groove artwork, but for whatever reason, Shinkiro didn't do the artwork for the SNK groove art. It was Bengus (a Capcom artist) imitating Shinkiro's art style (Though Shinkiro stepped in to adjust the faces). The sole exception to this is Joe, who was drawn by Shinkiro alongside Dan for CvS Pro.

[@TungstenViper]

Wasn't it that capcom's artists did SNK art and viceversa as a sort of tribute to the other company?

Yo, Kinu Nishimura's art for this game is LEGENDARY though. That Chun-Li & Sakura vs. Mai & Yuri promotional artwork may actually be the most iconic from the CvS2 era and it still gets posted and reposted to this day. The two different styles of artwork was a huge draw for me when I first played CvS on Dreamcast back in the early 2000's.

[@balrogdahomie]

First off, I want to say: I love this channel and podcast immensely. For a variety of reasons (social anxiety, lack of money, suburban isolation, etc) I was never really able to get deep into fighting games, but at the request of some friends, I’ve started to dip my toe in & am having a blast so far. I love how you guys are able to have high level conversations about these games, while still being understandable; this feels far less jargon-heavy than other fighting game shows I’ve seen, but it manages to produce interesting and thoughtful discussion despite that. I also just appreciate how much energy and excitement you guys have; you aren’t dishonest when something annoys or disappoints you, but something about the way you guys banter leads to the vibe always coming off as fun instead of pessimistic or aggressive, and I really appreciate that. This is one of the few podcasts/shows I think I can genuinely file under “changed my life for the better”; I always come out of an episode smiling, and as someone with GAD and chronic depression, let me tell you, that is NOT an easy thing to accomplish. Setting all that aside: I know you probably already have a massive backlog of requests and episode ideas, but there are a number of topics this pod has got me thinking about that I’d really love to hear your guys thoughts on. Obviously, I’m just a random idiot, don’t feel obligated to pay these any mind, but I thought I would share them anyway: • Fighting Game Joke Characters: What are your favorite joke characters? Do you think it’s better when they are mechanically weak as a joke, or are actually competitive or fun to play, and just happen to be silly in concept/mechanics? Are there any joke characters that deserve to be made into “real” characters? • Fighting Game Pet Characters: Taking this idea from a magic the gathering podcast where they talked about “pet cards”- cards that aren’t very good or competitive, but they still put in their decks because they have an emotional connection to them. Are there any characters you choose to play despite knowing they’re low tier, just because you have a soft spot for them? How bad does a character have to be for you to stop trying to use them- or, conversely, how much of an emotional investment do you need to get over a character being “bad”? • FGC Pet Peeves - Is there a certain kind of behavior from other fighting game players that you just can’t stand? Obviously everyone hates scrublords/“you didn’t win” types, but beyond that; things that annoy or get to you personally. Do people try to give you advice after a win, in a way you know is in good faith, but still really pisses you off? Do you think some people are too aggressive towards newer FG players? I can see this one perhaps dipping into the generalized “fighting game etiquette” episode, which I think I recall you mentioning as an episode idea on an earlier ‘cast, but I think there could be enough there for its own thing. • Which fighting game setting would be best/worst to live in?: I just think these kind of discussions are always fun. Obviously Mortal Kombat is pretty bottom tier, because no matter how good Ninja Mime is, it’s not worth the risk of being torn in half by a tarkatan. In street fighter, there are a ton of potentially world-conquering threats around, but they tend to get solved by a team of hero’s fairly cleanly, and if you put in the work you might be able to learn how to throw a fireball, so that’s fun. I just think it’d be fun for a goof-discussion, if that makes any sense. • Best licensed fighting games: the Injustice series, Jojo: Heritage to the Future, Marvel Super Heroes… what fighting game has the best depiction of characters from other media? Which has the best gameplay? Do you prefer these as crossovers (I e the vs series), or as their own independent fighting game lines? - The epitome of Archetypes: not a catchy title, I know, but I couldn’t think of anything better. Basically a discussion of what fightinng game character epitomizes a given play style or archetype the most: who is the most Shoto shoto? The most grappling grappler? The zoniest zoner? The most rushdown-y rush downer? • Great Idea, Bad Game / Bad Idea, Great Game: you’ve discussed a little bit before about disappointing fighting game titles; games that should have been mind-blowingly good based on concept and premise, but flubbed the execution. It would be neat to see a video both on those, but also a video on hidden gems you wouldn’t expect to be good; the gem collecting and orbs in Pocket Fighter, for example, don’t sound inherently super fun, but apparently the game is great. Again, maybe these ideas could be rolled off into separate “hidden gem games” and “disappointing games”, but I figure there’s no harm in throwing it out there. • A similar, but distinct idea: weirdest fighting game concepts. Fighting Games definitely have a massive breadth of aesthetics and themes beyond the usual “martial arts tournament” stuff; I’m looking at games like Clay Fighter, Primal Rage, Thems Fightin’ Herds, Fight of Gods, etc., and asking, “which is the weirdest in premise and character choice?” • Inputs and/or types of input notation: I know this seems like kind of a niche discussion, but (1) y’all already did a video on sticks v controllers, and (2) I think it’s an incredibly important point for trying to get new people into fighting games. I know that when I first tried fighting games, the fact I had to do combinations of movements for certain attacks instead of just hitting a button really through me off (“in Mario, you just press b to throw the fireball, why do I have to do this motion perfectly to do it here?”), and the old arrow notation confused the hell out of me (and many others, as that viral tumblr post can attest). I recognize now I was being a dumb kid, but that doesn’t change the fact that the confusion they caused (alongside the derision of snooty older players who balked at the idea of fighting games having simpler inputs) led to me missing out on fighters for a lot of my life. Nowadays, there are a lot of fighters (most notably and obviously smash, although that’s liable to start a whole other debate) trying out simplifying command inputs - Rising Thunder (if that’s still a thing), Fantasy Strike, etc. Do you think this is a good trend and/or one that should extend to more AAA fighters instead of just indies? How much can a fighting game be simplified without losing something important/fundamental to the genre? What’s the best notation for command inputs? What’s the hardest input you’ve had to do for a fighter (pretzel motions, or something worse)?

I played CvS in the arcade... the reason why we adopted it so quickly is because we had a lot of experience with the KoF series in particular (and World Heroes for me) so it took a short while to adjust. I think they did the four buttons to make it feel more familiar to SNK fans. At any rate I played SNK characters more than Capcom ones.

Card fighters 2 has never been officially localized. But there are two versions of cardfighters 1, a capcom version and an SNK version. I think that might be why they’re confused here. Love the episode and here’s hoping for more collabs between SNK and Capcom

[@cpt.hebikurashota7545]

Thank you Justin, Matt, and Maximillian for covering this exciting news Really hopeful that there will eventually be an new entry in to the CvS/SvC series, as Max stated one grand collection with all of the CvS/SvC related titles celebrating this fan favorite series of game would be more than welcome (TAKE MY $$$ now). I was lucky enough to have a NeoPocket system (which I bought pretty much to play these titles) and my local arcade had 1 CvS machine which was converted to a MvC2 machine due to low traffic (guess my quarters weren't enough to keep this around). As for CvS2 I had to make a pilgrimage to Arcade Infinity in order to see that game in action since, by that time, all other local arcades had pretty much gone belly up. I invested in a Dreamcast to play the JPN version of CvSpro and was more than happy that the investment paid off when my wife got me CvS2 for Xmas (along with JoJo for matching services). Am hopeful that SF6 will have an SNK entry and equally hopefully that we will see a Capcom entry on the "Team Guest" space for KOF XV. Would be interested to see whom else SNK is interested in collabing with (possibly Tekken now that 8 is on the horizon) especially with how often SNK and Capcom have been willing to lend out their characters recently. Looking forward to the next episode.

[@MrCactuar13]

Depends on the era of Street Fighter you're playing. Older games you can get away with your basic normal to special/super cancel combos and do just fine. SF4/5 is all about getting the right timing with your normal attacks to link them together before doing your special/super cancels. It's why frame data is so integral to learning SF4/5 combo theory because it basically lets you know what combos are even possible. There's more nuance obviously but this is basically the base concept.

If a CVS3 were to be made, the big gimmick should that every character should have a capcom mode and an SNK mode.

1:28:28 A possibility for the name thing. japanese use a combination of a syllabic systems (katakana and hiragana) and kanji. Kyo in Kanji is only one "character" 京, but could be three if written Kyo Kusanagi 草薙 京. however, the silhouette really seemed directly taken from one specific K' artwork (KOF'02 soundtrack cover IIRC. so why three characters? They possibly, wrote K in katakana (the system used to write foreign word in japanese characters), which become Ke-I' (ケイ') to hide it better. Also the reason why going with K' instead of Kyo or Terry is that the dude making Capcom All Star was one of the crator of K' or . he was his baby.

The fighting system was ehh, but I just loved the fact that SNK we're going neck and neck with Capcom (I was slowly becoming an SNK fanboy beforehand). The presentation of the game alone was bonkers!

Ghost Writer was godlike as I was growing up as a kid!

Thanks for reminding me how much of a freaking 90's kid I am to get that reference, Justin.

its quite fascinating that at this point people would ideally have capcom design the visuals of cvs3 but snk to design the gameplay. Back when cvs was a thing people would've wanted the opposite. SNK were so revered for their spritework that they would automatically be the pick for the graphics but capcom proved with cvs2 that they can get the gameplay right in comparison to svc chaos. But now at least as considered by the small number of people that play both games i think its in SNK's favor that they do fighting gameplay better while capcom have been doing better visual fidelity ever since the 3d era. (I know they don't work together on the cvs but people have been imagining what would be the best jobs to delegate to each company and team so its just funny its completely opposite to how it used to be). Also on the subject of whether the presentation of cvs1 or 2 was better svc chaos definitely is a contender too. They literally made a sprite for every single character in the game that you only see when demitri uses a special which genderbends all the dudes and does other stuff to the girls. thats the only time you see it yet they created a whole sprite for each character. And in general game looks great.

With the Zero thing, the GBA games were selling crazy at the time, so basically it's just advertising their current games. That Zero is sick though

I have Capcom V SNK 2 off PSN that's downloaded to my PS3, it has a controller issue where it turns off as it's loading and you have to wait a few mins before you press the PS button. If you do it too early the controller won't sync to the PS3

I've been playing some of these games over the past few weeks and found them to be pretty good and I do have some things to say -For CvS 3 I want to see them pull a bit more from each company's history, the rosters of the existing games lean a bit too heavily into Street Fighter and KOF. I will note how SVC Chaos does have more interesting choices like Demitri and Genjuro in its roster. I want to see some crazy inclusions so we can get matches like Super Geon vs Hauzer or Bionic Commando vs. Marco. -I don't really like what Capcom did with Ryo in their games by utilizing his Art of Fighting style inputs instead of his more modern ones. Also, I just want to note how I hate how Ryo's zansetsuken is FBF in every game after KOF 95. -I find that Capcom's games don't handle charge moves all that well -As for why CvS2 is still up, I would guess the licensing deal for the rerelease didn't have an expiration date for PS3. I imagine intercompany crossovers between video game companies don't have the expiration date of most licensed games, which from what I understand is a carryover from older licensing models you would see in toys and comics.

As much I tried to like CVS2, I couldn't justify the fact that Capcom did the SNK side of characters dirty, the SNK side is way too weak. Same as the Grooves: A=C >> K > N > S+P. They gave A & C way too many gimmicks that are not supposed to be there.

[@SeiryuuX]

Very much agreed

Love the thumbnail. I have the same art on my arcade stick. CvS2 is my favorite fighting game and I hope a new CvS is just around the corner.
