Plexosolarasolas’s channel on youtube has some nice CVs. My personal fav is The Killing Blade. Definitely check that one out.
Also, I’m surprised cuz I didn’t know that Avengers works in MAME. It’s interesting how MvC1-like it is, considering the fact that it came out two years earlier.
Insomnia.ac reported on the game’s loc test a long time ago, IIRC. That site is the only place where I’ve seen the game being mentioned, let alone having footage of the game.
Thanks for the link! I tried it out on emu, pretty crappy game… And a bit creepy too, some of the guys with underage girlfriends look scary. The mozart dude is extremely creepy
On a lighter note, anyone tried the X(the anime) - Unmei no Tatakai fighting game for PSX? It’s one of those “flying” fighting games, and I’m enjoying it a lot. I’m loving that you have both a blue normal dash and a yellow “curved” dash that kinda evades or gets you behind the opponent. The curved dash looks really cool and maybe makes good player vs player fast and awesome looking… But I’m still learning the basics.
(never played Psychic Force, which I guess is THE flying fighter, did it also have a curved dash btw?)
Here’s some guy playing the cpu:

If you crank up the graphics on epsxe, it looks pretty good for a PSX game too.
Is it made by the same company? Maybe they used the same engine and just switched some art and moves then
My only experience with flying fighters is the Mai Otome fighter on PS2

Which was quite different, and much more restricted in movement. I didn’t like it very much.
Fighting Dragon : Legend Elan Doree - 1998 Sai Mate
sega st-v hardware
and
Battle Tryst 1998 Konami
Konami M2 Hardware
This game features cameos from Konami’s other games : Pastel (the pilot of WinBee) and Princess Melody (from the “Twin Bee” series) and Simon and Richter Belmont (from the “CastleVania” series, as Shemon and Rheter, respectively), are the hidden fighters.
That last bit was from arcade history anybody play these?
I am in talks with a guy who is selling his pcb of Daraku Tenshi Fallen Angels
I am not willing to pay no $800 so we will see.:rolleyes:
No one’s mentioned it and I don’t know if you’d qualify it as obscure, but that Warzard/Red Earth game that Capcom only released in Japan is a lot of fun. It’s main focus is single player as it’s a fighter with RPG elements (that are actually kinda cool and different!), and instead of fighting in the best of 3 rounds format, each fight you take on (in single player mode anyway) is more of a boss battle. It’s kinda like Golden Axe meets Street Fighter in a sense.
Pretty cool game that runs well on newer MAME versions.

I’ve been playing a lot of obscure PSX fighters lately. Today was Critical Blow.
I found the game quite charming, until we realized how broken Berserker was.
Berserker strategy: Fire your laz0r! If you have super meter, fire Super Laz0r instead. Repeat.
It doesn’t combo, but the enemy can’t get avoid it and get to you.
His laser hits both high and low(even though it visually looks like high only, at least for the regular version), they both do great chip damage(and block pushback, further hindering you from getting to him!) and they last just long enough to make roll-dodge impossible and jump extremely difficult(and impossible for super version). There are some moves that make you lower than crouch/invincible(Marrys sweep, Kei(?)s super for example), but we havn’t found anything that can really threaten this tactic yet. And we’re not gonna keep looking.
Your only chance against Berserker is basically to get in his face right away and stay there, never letting him get far away enough to have time to fire the laser.
Also, when the super laser is blocked, Berserker build way to much super bar from that, making sure he can keep 'em coming often.
Too bad really, it was a pretty nice game. :xeye:
Other impressions:
Zero Divide 2: Pretty cool designs, but the gameplay was way to slow and clunky for me. Rakugaki Showtime: Awesome scribble-graphic throw-stuff party-brawler
