For those who didn’t get Orochi COllection yet…Amazon is selling new copes for $7.98 (Videogames Deal of the Day), today only.
Good deal.
mada mada dane…lol
Damn I’m late as hell haven’t been on here for a minute; but good to see that this game is finally coming to the freakin states! And I like the vid they had on Amazon; the 80s music with the DM’99 intro…sickness:wgrin:
Oh yeah and I’m pre-ordering it when I get paid next week for sure…might as well get the Orochi Collection since its mad cheap now too (and my Yakuza 2…I don’t care the first one was sickness to me!)
02" UM is coming out next month on the 26th.

good lookin out guyz. yeh, Tone hooked me up with kof 98 UM for ps2, the japanese verison, but i’m still going to get the american version. cuz round here, it’s forever KOF lol.
i like it alot with new EX characters, and better gameplay/control schemes better than control on 2k, 2k1, 2k2 and 3.
Last I heard it’s supposed to. Wikipedia has it listed as “Announced” with a Spring '09 release, along with Metal Slug 7. Personally, I’ll probably pick it up for PS2 just in case the 360 one gets kibashed, or doesn’t include Live play for some dumb reason, but if it does I’m paying whatever it costs for the Arcade version.
The new date is march 3rd
Which is like 2 weeks after street fighter 4 and 1 after 2002 UM drops in japan.
Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeally bad time to release it. I don’t see why it got pushed back from getting released at the end of this month
Yup. Pre-ordering mine in a couple weeks
Remember dudes to use my link if you can. I’d really appreciate that kick back lol
Is '02 UM also coming to the states?
Well there are no plans as the Japanese version isn’t even out yet
but I mean if the 98UM release date is any indication, you’re probably going to end up waiting a year at least for it.
So if you can import I’d do so.
Naw I ain’t importing that…I have an US PS2 and I’m tryna save up to get a ps3 right now…sigh oh well…I’ll just be fiending on 98UM till 2k2UM comes to the states. SF4 will have to keep me occupied till then
I still have KoF for the ps1, unforunately i can’t play most of my fighting games because my playstation got stolen, and my dreamcast died 3 years into owning it. I always wanted to get Fatal fury wild ambition, but after playing it at the arcade, ehhh i chose not to.
It seems the AST is usable in-game in the Wii version: [media=youtube]55CSgZJYkjI[/media]
But I haven’t seen the option for it anywhere, so I really have no clue what the deal is
With '98 UM coming out for 360 Arcade, '02 UM will probably also come out on Arcade, hopefully also with Live play. It’ll be worth the wait if this is the case, though '02 UM’s release stateside may depend on the success of '98 UM.
I bought the JP orochi collection, which contains kof 95-96-97.
I was a bit concerning if buy the US or the JP one, since the PAL is crappy.
Fortunately I found a bargain in HK during my staying and bought the japanese one… but now, i was wondering if the US version is ok or is like the crappy PAL edition.
If it has been already told pity on me but too many pages to read :wonder:
Yeah I just got my US copy of KOF Orochi Saga…its ok, considering the load times between matches and the announcer on '98 screaming “WINNER” or “PERFECT” instead of “GO” right before the starting of a match (it kinda gets annoying I ain’t gonna lie). But other than that its ok with me…its good to have all of them thats for sure. I wish they didn’t add '94 and '98 though and just stuck with '95, ‘96’ and '97…maybe it wouldnt be load times between matches. and plus they coming out with KOF98UM in March so what was the point of put the original in the Orochi Saga???
What was wrong with the PAL version?
the italian PAL version has the following problems:
-very slow loading time
-laggy controls
-problem with the announcer
-problems with kof98
The Wii version doesnt allow you to select the Ex Characters and Orochi Team in training mode. But you can on the PS2 version. Also the Wii version loads and menu go faster than the PS2 version.
Do the Wii version offers some sort of graphical alternatives over the PS2 version? (filtering or the likes) since the PS2 version seems really pixelated to me.
