Posted by Pslrgsvr on May 25, 2020 at 19:38:55 EST in reply to For sure. I’ve only played it in the arcade and on that one guy’s board when he later brought it to...I want to say Otakon. I want to stress how insane this was. SNK games were basically going straight from the MVS cart to my ROM folder at this point so to try and slow down the piracy they didn’t release an MVS of it. They only sold it as an entire JAMMA board. So you have to be crazy to to buy Neo to begin with, even home carts for what were I think $300 by then. You have to be twice as crazy to buy MVS arcade carts for what were like $800 I think then. But this was even more crazy because the thing had a whole Neo Geo in it as well and was well over $1000. I’m fairly certain I’m correct in these facts but it’s been a long time. Anyway, spending all that money and then just getting...SvC Chaos. Playing the hell out of it trying to get it to reveal its magic and then just realizing there isn’t any, that this is a early Beta with some finishing touches on it. Cue trombone slide...then they end up making an MVS cart of it anyway for the usual price months later so in the end you paid $100 a month more to get it ahead of the MVS. All this for a game that‘s just above bad. I’d still take it over CvS1/Pro any day. That thing really sucks. I hate that blurry Naomi look in general but that game just sucks. It sucks. CvS1/Pro sucks. Kyo looks like he’s 12. The thing sucks. (n/t) from SignOfZeta.
Oh wow, I didn't know about the initial JAMMA SvC release! As for CvS Pro, the PS1 version is all low-res--kind of my way of getting around the split resolution thing. ; ) The downer in that game for me--aside from it being too flashy for my eyes to enjoy these days--is that Arcade mode is too easy.
