I really like this game. I just wish that it came out on PS2 in the US so people wouldn’t have to worry about downloading it on XBLA.
It did come out on the PS2. Only in Japan though. If you have a modded PS2 you can get it for probably 30 dollars or so.
SInce I spammed this everywhere, I might as well do it here.

Here is a picture of Wata (on the left) and Wain (on the right):

No video footage yet. Not sure if it did get recorded though.
Oh thats Wata. His B.Jenet is DIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTY. Also didnt know that was Wain lol. Yuji’s Tizoc was really fun to watch. I hope they upload some vids. I was very ill the day before and woke up too late to sign up.
I’m guessing you didn’t get to record anything while in Japan?
Awesome, but is it my browser or does the song cut off at the end?
Nah the staff members at arcades clock on to you and tell you to put it away. Happened once in some arcade (dont remember the name) assumed that was the case everywhere. I didnt have a proper camcorder anyway.
Tizoc bug throw only work versus Tizoc ?
Works against everyone not just Tizoc. That includes normal throws as well. It just sucks for Tizoc a lot more since he needs his comamnd grabs for damage.
I saw in video , Gato do this: qcf,B,qcf,qcf,A, but Jenet dont have damage, she do b,b ( b,b vont input 5 frame window ?)
b,b work versus gato f,A,qcf,qcf,A ?
only Jenet wont escape ?
Gato do f,A,qcf,qcf,A and Freeman may do dAb,qcb,button
dAb work only freeman ?
:qcf: + :snkb:? You talking about his :r: + :snkb:? You can reversal backdash or :d: + :snka: + :snkb: Gato’s super with anyone to escape the 0F setup. It’s not just a character specific thing. Gato’s is the easiest to escape cause his has slight start up so it gives you time to input :d: + :snka: + :snkb: to not get hit. It’s better to just use :d: + :snka: + :snkb: because you can cancel the :d: + :snka: + :snkb: into a special or super. So it will hit Gato out of his super as it comes out.
sorry
yes i mean
f,B,qcfX2,A and f,A,qcfX2,A
I knew all the characters can do back dash versus Gato f,B,qcfX2,A or f,A,qcfX2,A
but better to do dAB versus Gato f,B,qcfX2,A or f,A,qcfX2,A because i can cancel into special or super
thanks
So does anyone still play on supercade or is it ggpo only now?
So I got GGPO running smoothly and was finally able to play this against human comp. It was great. I started out with Butt, not because he looks like a shoto but I dunno I just dig his design.
But now I have a couple questions. (I’m an ST player).
What are his best pokes to rely on for mid range footsie game.
His DP, does it have invincibility? I had a hard time using it as anti air. How is it as a ground reversal? When I brake it but it get’s blocked, am I safe? What about if they JD?
If his DP is not his best AA, what is? If you use JD as AA what’s the best move to guard cancel with. I had some success GCing into fireballs but I imagine DP is better (and harder)?
What’s his best normal AA and how is his LEM? Is his HEM any good?
And for general Garou questions. The game seems to have a very loarge amount of blockstun, am I right about that? Sometimes I would try to reversal punish stuff and I would do it waaay to early or so it seemed. Is there throw invulnerability after coming out of hit/blockstun, it seemed like I had to wait a bit before I got to throw people. I got caught by wakeup throws a couple times, is that a viable strat?
Apologies if these are things I should just man up and figure out for myself. You can tell me to do so if you want lol. Pretty excited about the game though!
His jumping D is really good, great range, and is an easy cross up.
NO ESCAPE
FIGHT
O wait wrong game that’s for NGBC wrong thread
Butt’s dp is not the greatest of AAs and definitely shouldn’t be used much as a reversal or wakeup option. It doesn’t have the invul needed to be used as such. His st.A and st.B are both good pokes, as is his cr.B. You could use his cr.C or the universal 2AB as AA options. His b/d super is a good option too for AA or wakeup if you have the meter, but it can easily be baited and punished, so watch out for that.
What I like to sometimes do is, if the opponent is jumping, abuse Butt’s command dash or great regular dash, to sort of get on the other side of the opponent and then go straight into a st.D–>whatever combo if you dash underneath the opponent correctly enough.
For starts check the second post of this thread under Marco’s name. I have all the posts related to Marco there. There are some post I wrote breaking down what to use with him there. His best normal pokes would be far stand :snka:/close stand :snka: both very fast, far stan :snkb: has good range and is pretty quick and hard to punish on reaction. His :d: + :snkb: is good also and should be used a lot to create openings. His far :snkd: is useful at times if they block it or JD it you can FC it but not on hit. His dp isn’t really for AA use. It’s more for combos, block strings and building meter for the most part. There is long block stun depending on the move causing the block stun though. If you have someone with good FC or break move that lets them continue block strings (Kevin) it can be hard to reversal those. Wake up throws are actually good in this game. They work really well but it’s risky if you know it’s coming. People you are playing are probably mashing throw on wake up from the sound of it. You can always tech or jump straight up to counter it as you land. You can also backdash away or even small jump works well on wake up. It will make them stop doing that.

Terry DP,ABbreak in block have -2 (B version) and -2 in block (D version).
