The New Fist of the Star/Hokuto no Ken thread

Ah yes…that’s exactly what you see with Raoh’s 100%. Sorry for the confusion ammo. :sweat:

Youtube is back up. I was actually going to save the vids but I didn’t bother cuz the quality just came out really bad compared to what it is.

NEBULOSO, is that arcade Aladdin’s Palace?

Yeah, not at all convinced it’s an infinite. They drop with each hit, weight gets higher and you won’t be able to keep them up because 2C is just not fast enough of a move.

It IS pretty close to a 100% though, so it’s still a nice combo.

WTF Man

look at them bounce!!! lmao, the Japanese sure love to break this game. But for turning the opponent into a basketball, Rei is officially god tier IMO.

There’s an arcade here at Gametown, Zurich Switzerland. For any of you that care. I don’t play it though. Or go to gametown that often.

Hey does anyone know where i can find FIST OF THE NORTH STAR GAME SOUNDTRACK.

I really want the songs, but if you cant find it all I care about if you bring the songs of Thouther and Jagi.

Hydra632 please help me with the songs.

I really want to have these songs.

Just got my modded green goblin agetecs in today so everything is set for Fist of the North Star/Rumble Fish 2 casuals/money matches/tourney(if there is enough interest) for Evo. I’ll be at Suncoast Thursday night then at Redrock Fri-Sun. Looking forward to some good games with everyone who attends. If you need my cell number just get at me with a PM before 4pm tomorrow or hit me up on aim at Hydra632.

For point 1 and 2, ppl blocks souther’s C+D all the time. It’s neither fast nor tricky(Juda’s Mirrorbreaker is damn annoying). Unless you are facing an aggressive IAD Rei. Souther’s raw C+D rarely hits people. When I use Souther, I totally rely on C+D so I know.

For point 3, we have 236A>236C>C+D+E>~ I usually goes for 2C x 2~3> (stand C> 623C) x N > A+C > 2147A. It’s stable, -3 stars, does tons of damage and most important, a lot of “Mhahahaha” noise.

“Air 214A > C+D” in wake up game? I do that too much:sweat: Just beware opponent’s Agility Defense(or Just Defend). Seriously you have better options, though more complicate, in wake up game. Gwyrgyn Blood did a great job killing me with mid/low guessing game in Otakon:looney: Souther is waaaaaay too fast at mid/low mix.

That was the most broke thing Ive seen in a Game…shheesh

Rei infinite balances the game nicely.

No, I bought the game a few months ago from coinopexpress, which the seller gave me the manual and the moves sheets in English.

Do you have the PS2 or the A-Wave version of NGBC?

Is Ken and Raoh any good in this game? Are they Like the Ryu/Sagat of this game?

Does anyone have a pic of the last boss?Also where can DA GAME buy the arcade guide or mook?

well doesn that change the tier list now that rei has this new power.

I’ve lost all faith in this version of the game having the potential for long-lasting high level play.

I’d still buy the PS2 version if it came to the US.

No. Ken may have a few Shoto style moves, but he doesn’t really play Shoto at all. Raoh isn’t even remotely like Sagat in any way. Both characters are quite good though.

Last boss is Raoh. Only difference is that he gets 2 new beam supers, and when you get close to defeating him, he explodes and gets a whole new life bar, all his stars back, and infinite super bars (or at least they go up to full too).

Probably not. Practicality of this is yet to be seen, although it could be pretty useful. Take all of this ‘broken stuff’ with a grain of salt. Not saying that the game ISN’T broken, just that a lot of this stuff isn’t as useful as you’d think it was.

While the game’s high level play is pretty shadey, the mid-level play (the kind of level you’d be playing at for 1+ years as an American) is a lot of fun. Toki runs the game at any point, but you can deal with him. Play with friends, as you would any non-serious fighting game you’d play.

quick question, if you do instant death kill

can you do it on any round and finish the whole match ala AOF3 or just on the last round

Uh, I misread what you said. Bleh.

Yeah, you can do it any round so as long as you have taken away all of your opponent’s stars, but no, you just win the round when you do it, not the whole match.

I put a new version of the move list up at gamef@qs. Changes since the last version (well, since december, really) are very minor but I thought I’d mention it. Scope the Jagi strategy note, too.

Also, there are videos of a bunch of dustloop cats playing over here:
