The definitive guide of Warzard

[Spooty_Whiteboy]

I’m pretty sure all the SF3 games ran on CPS3 and therefore wouldn’t fit at all into a CPS2 collection for PSP. Not so sure about Jojo’s

I think he meant CPS3 since SF3, Warzard, and JoJo ran on the CPS3 and not CPS2.

Holy Crap!!!

This thread still exist!!

[MagnetGenocide]

Yeah Red Earth runs on CPS3 Hardware.

It would be awesome if capcom released the game as part of a compilation on a home system.:tup:

Anyone else still interested in Warzard?

Someone who owns the game recently recorded himself playing and put the video on youtube:

It shows a lot so you can see what it’s like to play the game. He needs to get a better camera for the next video:confused:

[Mr_List]

wow this is a good game.

has lots of good ideas, could really have done with a sequel to expand and improve upon it.

[MUSOLINI]

[Tech_Romancer]

Level 10 Leo over here.

[Mariodood]

Why don’t we have a netplay community for this game?

[Mixah]

I can’t figure out how to combo.

Am I the only one who finds the com can be really tough/cheap in this game? My best was getting to Blade/Jihad without continuing, but that only happened once.

This game doesn’t exist in the U.S., right? Arcade or console- :sad:

Never got a console release, period. Not in Japan, not in the US. Even Nightwarriors: Darkstalkers’ Revenge, which had an arcade test site in California but was never marketed throughout arcades in the United States, got a US Saturn port.

WarZard was retitled “Red Earth” for the US but never got released in arcades. The only CPS-3 fighting games I ever saw in the North American arcades I played in were the SFIII games. My general impression is that the CPS-3 games weren’t all that popular worldwide and the CPS-3 itself had the shortest shelf life and least software development of all the arcade hardware Capcom ever developed. I think after the general perceived failure of CPS-3, Capcom abandoned it and used Naomi-based boards (basically Sega Dreamcast technology tweaked for the arcade with extra memory) for its last few arcade fighters including Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 and Street Fighter Zero 3 Upper (a port from CPS-2 with added features).

The WarZard characters have basically been limited to guest appearances in other Capcom games and the parody fighter, Super Gem Fighter Mini-Mix aka Pocket Fighter. I don’t recall the WZ characters actually being used in fighting game console ports aside from Pocket Fighter… I haven’t played Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom, either, so I can’t comment on the possibilty some of the WZ characters might be in that game.

why are you so annoying

Finally picked up this great game again! I started at Lv.1 with Leo, my favorite character(Conan!), and just leveled him up to maximum Lv.32 this morning.

Didn’t get any of the secret weapons, tried quite a few times but failed. The Lv.32 password on gamefaqs has 2/3 secret swords & the Demon axe already though.

Next up Kenji!

Yeah the CPU opponents are tough, i thought after i leveled up my character a good bit they’d be easier, not really. Just had to learn to play better.

Besides the CPU just being tough, it seems a lot of the enemy moves are also faster and have more priority over the characters. I think its supposed to be this way though for the sake of replay value and quarter munching. Can’t very well have the player running through all 9 enemies easily.

The challenge is part of the funfactor anyway. LOL i don’t think i’ve EVER beaten blade without continuing.

I made a quick search, and eventually I did not find any particular faq about this game. The only result is that people asking for a piece of information about Warzard.

[Capcom Fighting Jam] introduced a few Warzard characters, and yet, some people in U.S still think they are practically a whole new cast to the game. Well it’s not! Some people still don’t know what this game is all about, do they? Who are these characters? What’s this game all about?

Now before Capcom Fighting Jam hits the consoles [even it is now available on arcade], then I’ll tell you one thing, there’s a good reason to get prepared for it!

This is the definitive guide of Warzard.

Just keep in mind that I only tell you, what I know. So stop whining about incorrect information! Mostly of them are correct, so respect it!

As for today, you’ll find a little of everything about Leo - including spoilers, pictures. This is just a basic information about the game for those who don’t know anything about Warzard.

STORY

Basically, the game plays somewhere on Earth, in 1999 [wtf?!]. It is an altered earth, where countries restrained each other, as they were in lull. One engimatic country has risen. Mystic monsters of the country are leading the world into the doomsday.

Here is a map of Warzard
