Hi guys,

 

This afternoon, we're with Mr.Fox. Here we will listen to a great comparison of music from the AES and the NGCD. Enjoy. :)

 

From the description,

"It's not about what you can see, it's about what you hear!

Neo Geo AES vs Neo Geo CD home systems. No gameplay or playthrough, just a comparison of music between the two, quality, rearrangements, hear the difference and enjoy this short list of classic Neo Geo games."

Hey NGCD,

 

Another well made and enjoyable video done by you my good man. Such a fun game Kizuna Encounter this is. Too bad I past on the opportunity on purchasing this gem years ago. But hey, after seeing this, I'm motivated to go after it again. :)

 

Thank you as always for sharing your works bro. Keep it up. :thumbsup:

I was wondering is NGF still around and active. I heard about a metal slug they were selling.

Hey Evan,

 

NGF is still around. In fact with the regards to the Metal Slug they were selling, fellow Atariage member Dr.Strangelove Retrogaming did a podcast with Dion Dakis

 

From the description,

"A firestorm has come up in the last week regarding the Metal Slug available for sale in NeoGeoFreak profile on Facebook. Although appearing to be a smooth and pleasant disposal, the events have quickly turned into a hostile back and forth discussion concerning the legitimacy of the game. VirtuaNEStor, a highlighted retro player and collector started fuelling the bonfire. Other users followed his path of flames.

The sale status (a major title for every single collector) seems to be right now very much up in the air.

 

Is the game legit? Has Dion Dakis failed in verifying the game? It's all about scamming? Where lies the truth?

 

The live interview with Dion and his main knocker VirtuaNEStor is coming and the quest for the Metal Slug will end up with only result... the pure and shining truth."

Hi guys,

Real Bout Fatal Fury Special Review (Switch eShop / Neo Geo)

Version Reviewed: European

The Real McCoy

 

 

300x.jpg

With a name like Real Bout Fatal Fury Special you might think that the game is an update of something else from the series, much like how Fatal Fury Special was the second game with extra bits. This, however, is its own thing, but although it's not an update of either of the other Real Bout games (and Real Bout 2 actually followed this one), it is not a completely dissimilar experience. It is a one-on-one fighter after all and one where most of the fighters from the previous instalment are included.

300x.jpg

Geese Howard is gone (apart from as a hidden boss fight), but the rest of the Real Bout Fatal Fury gang has made it across. It’s not unusual for a sequel to bulk out the choice of fighters and that has happened here with the inclusion of four more characters last seen in Fatal Fury Special, including end boss Krauser. Via some button holding, four characters also have 'EX' versions available that come with some different moves to their regular variant. The EX characters may not be brand new fighting options, but they are still something to consider before embarking on your bottom-kicking adventure.

As well as special moves, there’s a power gauge that can lead to you performing guard-cancelling Break Shots and powerful Super and Potential Power moves. While the core fighting is solid and feels like a refined system from a confident developer, SNK continued to be unsure what to do with the multiple planes used during the fights. Having used a three-plane system for Fatal Fury 3 and the first Real Bout, here it reverts to a two-plane one.

Being able to move into the foreground (as well as the background) may have seemed like adding an unnecessary extra evasive option, but the fact that characters automatically returned to the centre lane after a moment worked well to keep the battle moving. Characters no longer do that here, which feels like a bit of a step backwards, but attacks can be launched across planes and evolving mechanics over the course of the series have seen the pace of battle increase, so it doesn’t really slow things down the way it once did.

300x.jpg

Another change is the removal of out of bounds victories. Only featured in the first Real Bout game they provided an alternate way to win fights and were something to consider across multiple rounds. Here there is still some destructible scenery at the sides of stages, but while this can lead to a stunned opponent it can’t be used for a quick victory.

The stages themselves look great, with a pan down at the start of the fight allowing you a good look at the detail in the surroundings. Different times of day are used across the different rounds and there’s a good range of locations visited from a lush beach to a busy Hong Kong street and a music venue with instruments and videoscreens set up, possibly for a post-fight gig. Krauser’s castle stage is suitably ominous and has a lady providing haunted vocals as a lead-in to Mozart’s Lacrimosa. Elsewhere, the music provides the usual energised tracks that work so well, with move-calls, thumps, crashes and groans also adding to the atmosphere.

300x.jpg

There’s some replayability in the single-player mode, such as trying to clear it with each of the characters, although the endings are quite basic, utilising victory artwork for a quick dialogue exchange. The difficulty is not too tough (certainly compared to some SNK fighters), but diving into the options menu allows you to adjust the challenge to your liking. Other options include turning the blood on/off as well as HAMSTER constants such as button remapping and the ability to add scanlines to the image. The usual one-credit Hi score and five-minute Caravan modes also feature but naturally most of the game’s replay value comes from battling against a friend, which can be done from them buying in to the regular arcade mode at any time.

Conclusion

The 19 (plus four) characters provide a good variety of options for the fighting and the battles are as fun as ever thanks to the usual range of offensive options and evasive manoeuvres. The fun out of bounds victories from the first Real Bout game have gone and there's been a change to the multi-plane system, but there's still plenty of fighting thrills to be had here. Real Bout 2 is ultimately a better game, but Real Bout Fatal Fury Special is still a solid fighter that can provide plenty of entertainment.

Good 7/10

That RBFFS review reminds me of an old question I had about Real Bout Fatal Fury 2:

In my mvs softdip settings, and mentioned in this japanese aes manual on page 14 (here)

there is a setting called 'line select' which I take to mean 'I disable the second fighting plane'

 

But the thing of it is, that it never seems to do that for me.

Does it work for you guys? Or does anybody happen to have an english aes, or mvs manual that may provide some more detail on the setting.

Hi guys,

 

This evening we are with SegaStation. Here we see an interesting mod done by him with the NGX controller. Let's see what he has to say. Enjoy. :)

 

From the description,

"In this video I convert a splendid USB Neo Geo arcade stick to work on a Wii for use with Retroarch emulators, using a 'donor' scrappy old Gamecube controller.

VERY easy mod, and I presume it can be used with other old arcade controllers/fight sticks.

Hope you enjoy it!"

Hmmm. That sounds interesting Reaper. I need to take out my Japanese AES version and try it out. Never heard about this before.

 

Nice work bro. I learned something new today.
