In Fatal fury 3 you can also unlock the three bosses (Yamazaki and the Jin twins) and they are added to the "family picture".

11:05 "Art of fighters" 🤦♀ Kof was a crossover between Art of Fighting and Fatal Fury. Mixing both mechanics (taunts,Charging bars,Desperate moves ,Dodge/Line sway ) + guests from the same lore (LIke Final Fight shares the same lore as Street Fighter ) Samurai Showdown is not from the same lore as KOF. I'll explain later why they've put Samsho characters almost 30 years later.

I’m not talking lore here. I’m saying the top 3 teams all represent SNK’s main fighting franchises besides samsho

@@Drzuul You really they were like like _"Oh what's our main games series ? "_Now lets put their characters but forget Samsho" KOF was a cross over , as said on the magazines and 1994 interviews. They wanted the series to have Specific hero team + guests form SNK games. It wasn't JUST because they wanted to put their man series. SNK had TONS of games , was working on serveral fighting games project at the same time. You are biased. You don't talk with the 1994 1995 perspective. Exactly like you are biased when you talk like mainly a Capcom player. Don't take it personnally , but I think it's disrespecful or at least un fait for SNK in its golden age. 😥 They were way more creative than Capcom. Who invented Back dash? Who invented Supers? Who invented Desperate move? Who invented real time facial damages? Who invented extra bars? Who invented Team Tag battle? Who invented taunts, Who invented defense mechanic and parries? Who invented alternative stages? Capcom exclusive players are all talking of these elements like it was always from Capcom games 😭 It's super unfair bro. Sorry for having been rude. But Capcom fans triggered me with all these nonsenses just before I watched your video.

Uh... what? Fatal Fury 1 and 2 both had the 'group shot' character select (2 even more so than 1). You must've played Special and thought 2 was the same.

I love AOF but you gotta admit the pure blue background is as exciting as undercooked toast (and I don’t mean bread as some kinda joke, I’m talking about toast you take out way to early so it’s barely toast but also barely bread so you get the worst of both worlds)

I am baffled by your choice of games to focus on. Why so many snk games with such similar (and a bit dull) screens. Why not more of the Capcom marvel games? How can you just skip cvs 1 completely? The topic is unique and interesting, but I feel like there would've been so many more exciting screens you could've introduced. Especially under this title that promises wide variety.
@Drzuul7 ай бұрын
I mainly covered games I knew and played. Also kinda fumbled into the capcom and Snk split by accident and it only made sense to end it with cvs2 and mvc2 at that point. I was concerned about time as well because I genuinely didn’t think many people would be that interested which led me to cutting 3D games and anime fighters. In the next part I’ll cast a wider net.

SNK going complete opposite of Capcom (even in 1994 when capcom was still milking Street Fighter 2 ) all all what you found to say is : Ryo is representing Mexico = Lack of imagination "they just do what Capcom would do, because everybody was copying Capcom" 🤦♀ "People don't play Kof nowadays because they don't want to pick 3 charcaters" Ugh... Capcom exclusive players are pathetic.. Always. World warriors , globe was the norm in every martial tournament in Japan. There were tons of Pancras , K1 , Muay Taï , crossover fights way before UFC with world maps. Street Fighter 2 copied movies like Blood Sport and and all fighters coming from all over the world Stop explaining EVERYTHING from your Capcom/Street Fighter point of view. SF2 invented a lot of things , (or improved a lot of things to be more accurate ) but you're going too far..

I don’t want to be rude but you’re assuming a lot about me. If you look at my channel from the beginning I’ve been an SNK fan first and foremost. Some of the first videos on this channel are me playing kof 98 with my friend and talking about kof 14 dlc. I’ve been talking about kof 15 since launch, I have kof lore vids, always talk about kof when given the chance etc. If I was a capcom die hard I wouldn’t have dedicated a large chunk of the video to AOF and KOF? In fact I have 0 videos on my channel that talk about street fighter exclusivity like I do for KOF, Guilty Gear and Melty Blood/Type-Moon. I honestly have no idea how you came to this conclusion.

He mentioned a video about announcers and says we should check it out, but didn't include any link to it. Nor was it easy to search for searching for announcer just returns this video. I eventually found the video in question and it is called "The Most Important Character in Fighting Games you don't think about | Drzuul".
