Weak boss syndrome that is.

[@codybaier]

It says a lot about how Max's approach to SNK games has changed thanks to the Terry legacy. When he first played this game for the Rock legacy he barely knew what he was doing, didn't care quite so much, and ended up fighting Mizuchi, the boss you fight after meeting none of the boss battle requirements. This time when he picks it up, he spends some time labbing, learning the game mechanics, and this time fights Goodman; the hardest boss in the game and the one you get for meeting the most requirements.

The reason Goodman turns purple is because that was SNK's special little way of throwing shade to Eolith.

[@andrako748]

Ah Goodman, this boss has left me confused of what SNK thinks about Igniz. In case you didn't know, Goodman was designed as a parody of Igniz. Why? Because Igniz wasn’t created by SNK but by Eolith (the last KOF that SNK did before entering bankruptcy, until it returned as SNK Playmore in 2003, was KOF 2000. Eolith was the one who made KOF 2001, where Igniz debuted, and KOF 2002 vanilla), there is also the fact that Igniz killed in a cinematic the character who was originally going to be the final boss of the saga, if SNK had not entered bankruptcy, Nests himself. From what I just said I thought that SNK didn’t like Igniz, but he reappeared in the rerelease of KOF 2002 that SNK made, KOF 2002 Unlimited Match, even though he was not in the original version, in addition there is the fact that he is one of the souls that were released after Verse's defeat in KOF XIV and is a playable character in KOF All Stars. We can say that SNK cannot erase Igniz from existence because, although his existence was not planned, by Eolith's work he ended up being a crucial part in the end of the Nests saga. But we can also say that SNK began to like Igniz over the years, since we all know that SNK had no trouble deleting K9999 from the history of KOF and the things he did (like the fact that he killed Foxy, confirmed because she appears in future games accompanying Kula in her supers) because SNK hates the character. For all that I have just said, I remain confused about SNK's opinion about Igniz. P.S: Before you tell me that K9999 was not erased from the canon and that he has not reappeared just because SNK suffered a lawsuit because the character is based on Tetsuo, it was never confirmed that such lawsuit happened. In fact, people who have gone to SNK offices have said that employees are forbidden to talk about it. How am I sure that is true? Because watching the streams of the SNK community manager, Krispy Kaiser (from the Twitch channel KaiserWave), whenever the chat talks about K9999, Krispy never says his name and always refers to him as "THAT CHARACTER" which doesn’t happen when the people talk about Nameless, his replacement, or any other KOF character in general.

[@E24KLawson]

Meh, good riddance to K9999 anyway.

[@andrako748]

@@E24KLawson Well, it seems that K9999 will no longer be alone in his club, because Love Heart, the pirate of KOF XIV, seems to have also become unmentionable just like the above because it seems that SNK sold the character's rights to another company. Although being honest, of the 3 girls of KOF XIV that came from pachinkos she was the only one that didn't seem boring to me.

[@wesleymateus2891]

Isn't they not being able to talk about it proof of this lawsuit though? There are a lot of cases with lawsuits where you can't talk about it to anyone who isn't part of the situation, basically an NDA

[@Titanium]

Andrako In the console version of King of Fighters 2003, you can actually spot K9999 in the background of Kusunagi’s stage - Egypt - on a pier. I think that’s the last time I ever remember seeing a glimpse of him in a Kof game.

[@JT-nd6qp]

@@andrako748 Sucks about Love Heart, she was cool but I guess she got her wish in the end- she didn't want to stay in KOF, she just wanted to go back to her own world. As for the other pachinko girls, I don't care much for Mui Mui but Alice is so freaking underrated. Good damage, fast meter and easy combos. Best girl. And I don't believe for one second that SNK "hate" K9999's design. Even if there wasn't actually a lawsuit, they just don't want to raise any possibility of provoking one. I'd say that's pretty typical of Japanese corporate policy.

[@alexmcneill6445]

Not gonna lie, this game is a little weird to me. Aside from the fact that I have NEVER played this game in my life, it just... feels weird. It's not a bad kind of weird, don't misunderstand. lol I do know that Max freaking out when he fought Orochi in KOF '97 was largely because he fought Mizuchi, a character exclusive to this game and is also a clone of Orochi. The plot is nonsensical but given who the two main characters are and who the main antagonist is, I'd say that's intentional~ lol More on that below. - King of Fighters Neowave was a game made to test out the hardware of the Atomiswave arcade system for the eventual King of Fighters XI. It's widely believed that this game (Neo Geo Battle Coliseum) is also a test for KOF XI even though this game came out only a few months before KOF XI. - The plot is an odd one but try to keep up~ The main setting of this game is NEOGEO World. It takes place on February 2017 in "New Japan". An eviiil organization called "WAREZ" and their leader, Goodman, are trying to take over the NEOGEO World and to do that, they seek the world's power. However, the organization decided to sponsor a special event called the "NEOGEO BATTLE COLISEUM". To counter this, two agents of the Federative Government of New Japan are sent to stop Goodman and save the NEOGEO World~! ...Did thatm ake sense to you? Excellent, 'cause it gets funnier down below~ - This game's theme and plot pretty much mocks the emulation community, hands down. lol In the past (and still to this day), SNK had lost money because people illegally emulated their games instead of buying them or paying for them which likely contributed to their bankruptcy in 2001. Despite that, it seems SNK is having fun and are showing no ill will towards their fans with this title and onward, haha. I mean, the main characters, Yuki and Ai, just LOVE SNK's products. Ai loves the Neo Geo Pocket Color for example. X'D And the company, WAREZ, is the obvious jab at the emulation community. - As a "Dream Match" of sorts, this game's casts are not just limited to Fatal Fury, Art of Fighting, or King of Fighters, but ALL of SNK. Instead of Athena Asamiya, you got (Princess) Athena. Marco Rossi from Metal Slug has entered the fray as well, a couple of Samurai Shodown and The Last Blade all-stars and we even have characters from less known SNK titles like World Heroes, King of the Monsters, Aggressors of Dark Kombat, and Savage Reign. But there are PLENTY of character cameos around too~! - This game has multiple final bosses but depend on how well you play: . Mizuchi, a Clone of Orochi made by WAREZ . Neo Dio, a boss from World Heroes (another SNK game) . King Leo (or Shin Shishioh), a boss version of King Lion from Savage Reign and Kizuna Encounter (two "sequels" to Fatal Fury and AOF) . Goodman, the true final boss of this game and a boss exclusive to this game... He was designed after Igniz from KOF 2001 funnily enough~ - A few characters from this game were ported over to the PS2 Port of King of Fighters XI. These characters are (EX) Kyo, Geese, Mai Shiranui, Tung Fu Rue, Mr. Big, Robert Garcia, and Hotaru Futaba. - Just like with past SNK fighters, this game has both the Arcade OST and the Arranged OST. However, the arranged tracks aren't like the pre-KOF 2000 arranged OSTs. They're more akin to post-KOF 2001 (or Garou: MOTW) Arranged OSTs in that the tracks are merely updated with new instruments instead of having original pieces exclusive to the Arranged OSTs. XP That's all! Really short this time~

[@MitchJustChill]

Keep up the good work dood, was pretty cool info.

[@Cartoonguy133]

NESTS Kyo and Geese were also ported from this game to King of Fighters XI.

[@aceg.rookie]

thatm ake

[@codybaier]

There's a little more meta angle to the plot that you missed. Goodman is designed to look like Igniz (the big end boss of KOF 2001, the year they went bankrupt) and runs an evil organization called WAREZ (as you pointed out; a jab at pirated games). So you have this massive SNK crossover fighter, with a series of major SNK bosses, but who do you place as the biggest SNK boss of them all? SNK's bankruptcy. That's the ultimate villain in the big SNK crossover fighter. The toughest SNK challenge of all time: an incarnation of its bankruptcy. It's brilliant.

My immediate reaction was "what is he a fuckin belmont?!"

[@19st0pman4]

Goodman's Stand reminds me of the final boss of Metal Slug 5 lmao

[@xxnike0629xx]

I wouldn't mind if SNK made NeoGeo Battle Coliseum HD for the PS4..

[@Otawizo]

Watching this, I realize SNK bosses are just characters ported directly from Marvel

[@Strixer-gk2kz]

You notice Goodman doesn't punch or kick. He sits from afar and lashes you with his Castlevania fire whip while sicking his fire demon. He's a literal Zoner or in other words, a POS.

[@andrako748]

Goodman fights with a blue fire monkey... no joke.

[@bleack8701]

"this combo does red damage" a good thing to remember

[@viniciusraraujo]

7:59 Its funny how Terry voices cracks when he does buster wolf in this game. XD

[@blaze6477]

No

[@Nintality]

Just got this game, pretty awesome 🔥 the characters can look sharper. Did see something in the options, imo turning off the smoothing effect the characters look way better

[@joshualowe959]

11:46 GOOD MAN!

[@kingoverseas9052]

Kazuya entered KoF in one of the comics many years ago.

[@rogankane6901]

Dayum... I forgot How beautiful this game's Backgrounds are... take notes third Strike!

[@retrod8bit158]

ahhh at last!! He Plays against GOODMAN... havent seen the video.... ill need to watch this at home with proyector and my Home Theater

[@charleschase7945]

I recommend labbing Marco, Yuki, and AI. They are so much fun

[@dillon3213]

18:12 Max becomes the new rap god

[@diegogalicia1426]

At 6:30, is that a metal slug stage?

[@thelonesage3146]

The ost is really good with this game

[@Dirtyboots3strikes]

18:41 WTF did Araki visited SNK and Jojo'd Terry and Rock? XD

[@Shendue]

That Athena, the Athena of SVC and this game, is not Athena from KOF, it's Athena from the old platform arcade game of the same name. Of course she's in a chainmail bikini, that's the outfit she had there. The Athena from KOF is Athena ASAMIYA, originally from another SNK arcade platformer, called Psycho Soldier. She is actually a DESCENDANT of the other Athena.

[@hxctalent]

You missed ONE game: KOF:Neowave. The closest to 98 and 13/14 but the graphics were still stuck in the old school. It's not emulated but can be found on PS2 disc

[@bozzyham]

That Belmont boy been kicking your ass for days

[@kingeddy7966]

Marco Rossi on a SNK fighting game,NANI ?

[@marplatense31]

So THAT'S how you get to Goodman? Now I know how to fight him next time I play the game.

[@Gwrightproductions1]

The best stage work I've seen SNK do before KOF 12 and 13. 15 needs to be next level as in a game that finally looks like that latest graphics of this gen.

[@NathanMarchandAuthor]

I smell a new Boss Rage video coming soon....

[@truindividual]

That KoF All-Star x Tekken 7 cross over really makes me want SNK vs. Namco

[@ameernurhaqeem9738]

If they ever do that its ginns be sick as hell final bosd can from snk or namco

[@GotCamel]

Goodman should give you enough content for a new Boss Rage episode. Do it Max!!

[@otsu3011]

Eisuke Ogura's art is beatiful

[@TheKingoftheriff]

Zatto on them bull steroids.

[@robertbell976]

kudos for being able to vocalize that as fast as you did lol!!

[@InzidenzPanik]

The amount of tweaks you need it to somewhat play it on a Retroid was worth it just to finally beat King Leo and Neo Dio.

[@joshualowe959]

3:47 That tag team combo is similar to the Marvel vs Capcom 1 tag team combos

[@Blaze3062]

Terry just killed Bumblebee. Okay!
