Samurai Shodown Anthology

[m216xlegendx]

ABout mina in ss6 she is very good cause she has amazing get up game. A good example is dark geese vs tokido. Tokido simply puts 1 arrow in the air(RPD kick) and trips DG. Then after he trips DG he runs at him. At this time DG can do 3 things,1. small roll , which tokido will counter with running kick,2. long roll which tokido will counter with grab or 3.stay on the ground. Now what this means is if DG does 1 and 2 tokido will knock him back down everytime. So if DG try’s to roll at all on the get up he will be counterd. SO that means ounce mina knocks you down you only have one option and that is to stay on the ground.

Now what your saying to yourself is ok i just have to stay on the ground. And this is what mina wants. Ounce she makes sure you dont roll she puts a arrow up in the air(RPD Kick) and then waits for you to get up and drops a arrow on your head(RDP light slash). After the RPD light slash connects mina can do a mix up game

on RDP light slash block

1. another overhead arrow-forward kick-HCF hard slash (MASSIVE DAMAGE)

2. Down medium slash-HCF light slash

3.down light kick - rush grab

4. up down kick

5. roll back RDP medium slash- HCF light slash

On RDP light slash hit

1. forward kick-HCF hard slash(massive damage)

2. down medium slash- super

So basicly mina plays every character the same, The only way to beat her is to block her get up game(which is VERY HARD) and counter.

DG vs tokido mina 2008 [media=youtube]XaFk2qY9F-8&feature=PlayList&p=4AF20EFB343CB412&index=124[/media]

DG keeps trying to roll and if you watch tokido knocks him back down everytime. There 2007 match went the same way.

I sent him the links to stickied threads here , usually after reading those people set the game up with no problems

Yeah I must’ve done something wrong. All I get is a black screen. Going to try again, but properly this time and follow the guide to the letter.

So with any luck, I should actually get to play tonight.

[System_1]

anyone excited to play this?

get hype y’all!

shit wait a second does this mean i need to buy a psp?

frick!

[Black_Shroud]

Black screen = old neogeo bios (if its less than 700kb then its surely old); I PMed you with new one

@Denjin_Man
To play all six games in compilation by the means of compilation itself you need PS2 or Wii or PSP, and you can play SS1-SS5sp by means of emulation, and even with netplay support on services like 2dfighter.com

Nice buy man! I love Samurai Spirits Zero Special, it’s one of my favorite fighting games ever. However, the fact that I don’t physically own it and the NeoGeo hardware is driving me crazy (emulation only does not satisfy at all)! That is why why when I get myself a Neo Geo MVS (w/ UNIBIOS included), one of the games I’ll get first will be SSVS. I’ll have to be careful when buying it online though, since I remember a while back that someone was selling a fake on ebay.

Yeah, I remember paying $370+ when the AES version came out in 2004. Had to get rid of it because money issues. But I had some spare cash to buy this game on MVS. For a loose cart, you’re probably looking at $220-275. If you find a MVS kit, it’s around the $400+ range. Bootleg is $40-50.

In the end, this game is definitely worth every penny. The solid gameplay engine, large character rooster, and the fatalities are an added bonus. It’s a must own NeoGeo game right after SSII.

[PelvicThrust69]

So, when are people typically on for SSV? When I was dorking around and failing last night, I only noticed a couple of people in the room (And most were ironically enough just playing 3s).

[Black_Shroud]

Hmm, a hard question because everyone lives in different countries/has different timezones. When Europe has day, everyone in America sleeps so most populated hours are the morning/evening ones. If there are people in the room with Away status, I suggest PMing them for game. By the way, do you use same nickname at 2DF?

EDIT:
We seemingly fixed the hacking problem with site, so Google/Firefox should take down their warnings soon.
By the way I noticed that they restrict access to http://www.samurai-shodown.com/luivo2/ but not to http://samurai-shodown.com/luivo2/ , so you can still access the site by remowing the “www” part

It sure will when i do. I probably go for a loose cart, however, I don’t usually see loose carts much. Only full kits I see most of the time. Well, whichever is available when I do get a Neo Geo, I’ll definitely buy SSVS.

[Tech_Romancer]

When is Black Shroud going to post vids on his account? When? Where?

How?

I must see your matches.

[Black_Shroud]

You can view my matches at 2dfighter.com, it has replays service.

By the way, www.samurai-shodown.com now can be accessed freely again, since Google removed site from black list

No you will post them on youtube

[PelvicThrust69]

Played my first couple games last night, just as fun as I remember. Though I mentioned that you helped me set it up and some dude flipped out calling you a total noob or something :S

Really liking this so far though, its a great change of pace from screwing around with SFIV, BB, MVC2 and 3s. Though I’m starting to get too many games to play at once

Anyway hopefully I’ll see some of you guys online, I really need to learn to actually play Mina and not just play guessing games with arrows, or maybe that’s what I’m supposed to do :tup:

I thought about this for about a month, and some characters i think could go alittle higher or alittle lower. I think through time tiers change. So a year form now i could think differently. But to be honest i feel like god,top and med high are very accurate. I am always willing to debate … Im not too sure about goah or jubie’s placement. I think goah is really good in ss6 but i dont know how good. And jubie is always solid and has good state of nothingness set up. So those two im still very unsure about.

[m216xlegendx]

Oh and darkgeese i cant figure out this mizuki infinte. I thought it would just be ss6 sprit with no life, but i dont get my secondary super fast enough(claws). I see that in the corner the secondary super doesnt knock down. But i cant get it to infinte. can you post it for me?

[m216xlegendx]

Ok i know the infinte with mizuki now, its actully a glitch. In the corner if you hit with mizuki’s downed attack you can hit with her command grab before the other character can even stand up. Im pretty sure its banned in even casuals its really cheap. The timming is easy too. You just do the command grab right after the downed attack is over.

iroha has the same glitch with her super, If she hits with her downed attack its a free super. And garia can hit with a free 360 grab if his downed attack hits as well.

[Black_Shroud]

I thought those were fixed in console edition (you have Arcade/Console in options, arcade mode enables the glitches, console mode disabled them)

[Ultima]

Those OTG throw infinites are old. Not only that, but I think only Gaira and MIzuki’s are banned, since Iroha’s own requires super.
