So a couple of weeks ago I went to PAX Aus, saw an old professor of mine showing off student projects in the indie section. It reminded me of my own student project from three years ago. It was a Smash clone with grappling hooks, we called it Swing Kings. We only ended up getting two characters and three stages into it. I think the social media pages for it are still up, haven't checked in a while. It didn't look as good as Fantasy Strike, but it's about the same ballpark as projects from the year after.

We weren't paid for it of course, as it was part of our education, and even if we did release it commercially, the university would claim royalties on it. Unlike Swing Kings, though, people were PAID to make Fantasy Strike.

At least it has GGPO. Kinda funny how most of the games one would actually want to play do not use anything close to GGPO and still rely on input delay. Meanwhile these mobile gaming-ish fighting games have GGPO since day 0. You can't win them all.

hey, leave skull grills alone !

...I played a game that was exactly that back at CEO!
Was simply called Grapple Hook Fighter, got my attention because Sonicfox was super into the concept but piled up a huge list of gameplay concerns. lol



I guess now it operates on lifebars because back then it worked on percentages and if you landed in a death zone (typically the bottom of the stage), the stage transitioned into a lower level.

Yep. I really wanted to add "Japan, get your shit together" at the end of that post but I forgot. SFV having rollback is a miracle.

I hope all those sales will help the developers to finally make the remaining characters relevant for True Story Mode playable at the very least.

Ah, Chikara

The American independent Lucha Libre promotion with the Japanese name and kanji

The business is weird sometimes
Nevermind, there's nothing I can do
Bet your life there's something killing you
It's a shame we have to die, my dear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time
What a way to go, but have no fear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time
It's a shame we have to disappear
No one's getting out of here alive
This time, this time, this time

grr with mexican wrestling I meant lucha libre which is the style the company focusses on, not that it is a company from Mexico. My fault, sorry.

I understand what he was going for, since this isn't the wrestling thread a lot of users might not understand if he tried to describe Chikara as we know it.  Because let's face it, to a non-fan it kind of...defies explanation.

This time I will get it together without Engrish  and other mistakes, here we go:

Samurai Shodown VI for PS4 launches November 22 in the United States.


It is the PS2 version from 2005 with the additional characters not seen in the Arcade version , so basically nothing new at all. This version was included in the SS Anthology for PS2 in 2008, it was not sold seperately in the west.

It is ported to PS4 as a straight port without any online mode..because heeey nobody of us would like to get one of the best Samurai Shodown games with a online mode riiiite?

In other words: Meh.

So it turns out Persona 4 Arena Ultimax arcades were just ordinary PCs that ...well looked cooler
And someone managed to crack them
So we can actually play it on PC now.A copy has been floating around the net for a while now.Unfortunately as this is the arcade version,there is no story mode or gallery or anything like that.
I ain't gonna link it as this technically is emulation,and this forum supports that,its still piracy,which this forum doesn't support,so you're gonna need to dig a bit on your own.
This could turn out great for people that want to get some more P4 characters into mugen,as the sprites and everything will be much easier to rip.

20° Atari Jaguar Fighting Game Thea Realm Fighters Discovered

Thea Realm Fighters was originally developed by High Voltage Software, the company behind Fight for Life (3D fighter) and the port of NBA Jam: Tournament Edition to Atari Jaguar. On an emulator Thea Realm Fighters supposedly runs almost as slow as Fight for Life does on an actual Atari Jaguar console. On actual hardware AtariAge members have reported using various Skunk Boards to play the beta version of the game and stated that it is quite decent in speed. Your mileage may very well vary.
