SNK not the same anymore

[Nutty-Da-Kid]

man wat happeded to da days when snk was actually compition for capcom man i miss the old snk all they do now is release new kof's but that is not enough. they let capcom win i just dont feel the same way about snk like i use to wat about u guys.

Trust me, i remember those day. SNK was a big let down for me too. It was right went Strret Figther Alpha hit when we started to witness Campom lose ground to SNK's Samarai Showdown 3 or 4, World Heros, and the Infamous KOF series. I remember SNK begin my favorite Figthing engine too when the King of Figthers '95 and '96 first came about. And then like a David Blane magic trick, POOF they just fall off the map. I still don't there question there creditibility tho, I can see a 3rd Wave SNK comeback in the future.

SNK is trying to get out of the hole she carved herself!

I had a Neo-Geo CD, so I remember well the days of glory of SNK!

The SNK now isn't the same company that it was years ago, considering Playmore bought them out. I miss when SNK made other types of games other than fighters like Magician Lord, Blazing Star, Metal Slug....well they do still make that series, but it hasn't been the same since the third one. When it comes to fighters I think the best was Samurai Shodown 2, they have not made a fighter of that quality since then. Companies change, that is just what happens...even Capcom isn't what it used to be, but theres nothing we can do to stop these changes. Oh, how I miss the Neo-Geo and it's 24-bit glory.

true but capcom is still progressing nicely releasing lots of games and stuff i liv near the sega and capcom company. and they havnt went out of business once but man i miss the old snk

[MaverickZr0]

And when SF4 comes out. SNK better think of something fast. that's what I think. don't hit me! *covers head* >_<
I still support SNK, I buy their new games. I never really understood what's good about SS, but I guess that's cause I never really played it.

[Whoblehwah]

I think SNK will make a comeback eventually. They have MI:RA out, SSS coming soon, and KOFXII. If they can properaly market these in the US they'll definatley be able to compete with Capcom.

[Nutty-Da-Kid]

but u remember back in the day when all snk did was release hits and many many games now they only release a few at a time.

I have MI:RA (jp) and is a good game but far away for a comeback...i honestly hope
that KOFXII will be tho', because i really like KoF and want it to continue =/

they always sucked compared to capcom

they always sucked compared to capcom

yea i use to think that too they dont make as much adventures and other games like capcom they are almost all fighting but back in the day they were serious competition for capcom and ironically they screwed themselves over

[Magma MK-II]

They were victims of themselves. KOF made such a success, that they think just making new versions of it would be enough to keep the players satisfied.

IMO Capcom is like the Madden of fighting games, a lot of people buy it just because of the name . While Capcom puts out some great games, they put out some stinkers too.

SNK, here in the states, it didn't get very popular because not many people had a Neo Geo, and for some reason not many people played their games a lot in the arcade. I enjoy their games though. Not saying they're a better company than Capcom and I'm not saying they're worse, thats up to the user, but I enjoy SNK's games over Capcom's because their character design is much better and I just like the style of play SNK uses, makes it easier to play on home consoles as well because of only 4 main attack buttons. Don't really have to worry about finding a 6 button layout pad or an arcade stick. I usually only use sticks on 3D fighters though

[Marancv]

Hahah I'm still looking forward Capcom Vs SNK 3 more than MVC3.

[C.R.O.M. jodafro619]

SNK has this style that rubs you the right way when it comes to their fighters. The characters were oozing with style and substance. Kof did what Capcom would never do. Pit their characters of past and present in one big brawlfest. To be frank, cvs would've not came to be if it wsn't for kof. There wouldn't have been that game if there wasn't any heated competition with those two companies. But kof xii will be based on a new board. So the characters will hopefully be redone from the ground up. I hope the don't do like neowave and improve the stages and that's it.  >:-(-|Does anyone know who made arcana hearts? A friend of mines said snk made it, but I've played it and still don't believe it.

[Kev The Galaxybender]

Examu developed Arcana Hearts

yea i agree im a capcom fan but i like snks fighters better because the way it moves and snk always give there fighters a bunch of moves so u can vary ur combos as to where street fighter ppl only get about 2 or 3 moves.
