Samurai Shodown Talk

I just mentioned Sen because they added some animated effects with traditional Japanese paintings in the character select screen. That would have been fit with the change in artwork. but they stopped there

Is the LB 2 netcode any good?

AFAI remeber, the ps2 port had loading times between character select screen and fights from SamSho3 onwards. IDK if those were NeoCD ports or what. Never played the one on Wii.

I second this question, Im specially interested on the portable versions of LB2 and the upcoming Garou.

^Hey look, it’s @Virtua_Leon’s favorite game!

I told you people bust genjuro was good, he should have won that first encounter with shizumaru when he fucked up the back turn combo
But really, bust genjuro is good, and told you that throws where bad how many non command grab throws did you see?

The game is so fucked up, i mean amakusa is so fucking retarded, literally the worst chracter in any fighting game ever down D that’s it who fucking wants to play that? a chracter so poorly designed that you can win pressing one button.

mind boggling! but shit i dont care, this game is like my ginger step child, i still love it

I have a special nick too for SS3. IDK bit what I hate the MOST is the “transparent” random hurtboxes.

post launch KOFXIV should motivate SNK to get samurai shodown anthology on PS4. they didn’t give Nakoruru a push for nothing, ya know? it would be the next step towards hyping a new SS

this is so facepalm it’s not even funny

this is going to conflict with Samurai Shodown Anthology port. a lot of people would be upset purchasing SS1, knowing that SS1 is in Anthology anyway,

and everyone else is going to hold off for Anthology anyways, so simply bringing SS1 arcade to PS4 is just plain cheap when MetalSlug got its Anthology version on PS4 instead of Metal Slug 1 separately, you know?

fans should really twitter SNK for SS Anthology port, it’s a waaaay better deal with 6 Samurai Shodown games.

Just picked up a NOS copy of the anthology for my Wii, but would buy again for the ps4 if it had netplay.

Do they do that for these releases, or is it just a straight port?

Hey everybody. I’d like to get into Samsho5 to play it on fightcade but the SRK Wiki has very little information on individual character tech. Any good places I can go? I want to learn Sogetsu (mainly), Kyoshiro and Charlotte.

Been playing Samsho5 for the last couple of days and really enjoying it even though there’s still a lot of things about the game’s mechanics I don’t understand. I’d like to learn the game more but I don’t want to spam this thread with beginner questions. If anyone would like to “tutor” me shoot me a PM.

does anyone play ss4? all the other ss games feel so off to me

I don’t know. I get about the same amount of enjoyment out of II and IV, but every other entry feels cumbersome to play or really off in the balancing department.

Samurai Shodown is about sick ass ninja samurais going at it with badder man style techniques. You would have to be on crack to play one for balance lol. I can jam on it every now and again but the balance is wack not the worse by any means but not great. I prefer BAT2 for all my samurai needs there is the odd damage issue here and there but generally playing it, setting health to max the balance is pretty good

Battle Arena Toshinden 2? That silly ass proof of concept? It doesn’t hold a candle to even Virtua Fighter 1. No, if we are talking samurai, there is no choice finer than Kengo II. Besides, ninjas are as fake as a Las Vegas stripper’s tits. Mofos prominently used guns, wore normal clothing, and even the most famous one (Hattori Hanzō) is known for using a fucking spear.

Dont know what your talking about mate BAT2 eats VF and Kengos for breakfast. Why you so mad at ninjas bro? is it cause they merk samurais on a regular basis? is your dad a samurai? why samurais so salty?
