Posted by Atarianallstar on June 02, 2020 at 14:26:56 EST in reply to Naturally you'll want to hold out for the just-announced PS4 and Switch "Shockbox Limited Edition" packaged in "a replica of an actual NeoGeo box." ; ) Pre-orders open June 2nd, shipping August 28th. Limited to 1,200 units on PS4, 1,800 on Switch. Price still under wraps, although publisher Pix'n Love's previous "Shockbox" release of SS1 (with SS!2) for Switch was $132.53 (released in May, now sold out, like all their previous game editions). Pix'n Love are French and I *think* this is technically an EU release, but Switch and PS4 are region-free for games so I suppose that shouldn't really matter. from Paleface.

You can play my pirate MVS if you’re ever in Ann Arbor.

Normally when it comes to games worked on by S:NGP members I spend money somewhere between Drunken Sailor and Ronald Reagan but this one is hard. I already have everyone's favorite SS (II) on MVS and Saturn versions of III and IV and really I don't care at all for the level of violence in the later games. Its also probably double what the SNK 40th cost and I actually played that...

well the level of violence is actually reduced in V Perfect! They had to steal frames away from the overkills in order to make room for cutscenes and story! But yeah, I mean... I think you can get it digitally or something. you will enjoy some of the dev interviews and the walking tour of esaka I got to film.

Yeah, I want to see the story segments for Perfect and virtually any SNK info/dish previously unseen I’ll watch. I’ll download it I guess and hopefully some shithead will trade me something for it someday.

I'll also just see if I can get extra loose copies or something.

Yeah, even a bare cart would be fantastic. Eventually all those downloads just...go away.

There has to be some cult of GBA school out there that fixates on "what could the full power of the GBA really do?" like how people talk about how to make the PCE Arcade Card not useless. Those people, you'd think, would be really into Stuntman (GBA) because it really is pretty impressive. Sadly its not a cute 2D redux of the overdone PS2 game but instead it itself is also overdone. Fully polygonal and all that shit with sorta decent physics. Its basically a AAA PS1 game...so rough nobody can stand to look at it anymore...except I think we were already getting into that phase even when this game was new. IIRC Crazy Taxi is the closest thing to it graphics-wise. BTW I prefer this to the "real" versions. The pace of the menues and tutorials and stuff is way less frustrating.

nowadays you can find some of that "what could it really do" kind of stuff on youtube - one that often gets mentioned is Smashing Drive. Also there was an asterix and obelisk 3D platformer!

Holy crap, it's like a visually truncated version of Bulk Slash.
