It's so kind of Max to allow them to translate instead of just using his fluent Japanese skills.

[@watermelonpizza7824]

😂😂😂😂

[@Rexaura888]

I mean someone’s gotta play translator for the viewers at home and the Twitch chat while also ensuring that nothing that shouldn’t get said at this point in development remains so. May as well be the person who is responsible for at least the latter half seeing how they’re qualified and all.

[@StabbyRocketJoe]

Oh no, too bad. I was looking forward to Max's astonishing display of his sublime Japanese vocabularies like *"Buenos gracias!"* and *"Phoenix Down me up my voluptuous ass!"* 😭

Try the old Garou mark of the wolves, it's on almost every system in the ACA collection for not too much,as are other SNK game gems like the Last blade 2, Samurai shodown series and many King of Fighter games and ofcourse Fatal Fury. SNK beat em up legacy is one of the best in both quality and quantity, not always have been succesful going to 3D but they been picking up their stride lately it seems.

[@schwim69]

This was so cool. I actually love the idea of a company ranking. It's great to see devs face off and show off tech and mechanics.

[@treexmv]

This game just keeps looking better and better. Can’t wait to try it out myself

[@GustavoOliveira-hq2dr]

We also know that the next game that is gonna get some luv from SNK is Art of Fighting (there is also Sam Sho) so if they keep this up they'll develop the character models for a sizable portion of KOF which would put them in a position where they can streamline the development of the next KOF.

[@Cronalixz]

It's like it's all coming full circle and we're going back to how these games were made back in the day. It's glorious

Krauser may be dead in the Fatal Fury continuity (He originially killed himself after his loss against Terry in Fatal Fury 2) so your best bet is him having a child that carried on his moveset, so Rock Howard's distant cousin.

@@DARKONE-E.I.C.O.S.A.T. How Is knowledgeable are you on the lore and continuity of Fatal Fury? Because the one consistent thing between most Geese appearances is that he survived his fall in Fatal Fury 1.

It's weird since there is text stating Geese died from a fall in FF1 ending but yet it wasn't actually fatal to him until Real Bout. Basically the end of CRANK is what happened to Geese in the first game.
