The New Fist of the Star/Hokuto no Ken thread

Your avatar is awesome Aries.

More info on the PS2 release. It will have strategies for every character in the tutorial vids. It also comes with around 20 older Hokuto games … there’s bound to be SOMETHING good in there! ;o

Damn, no WONDER it took so long to release. And yes, Aries’ avatar is awesome. I want dibs on a Raoh av!

:sweat:

Like I said pal, Hokuto Shin Ken may have 2000 year history of bad-ass martial artists…but over its 20 year history of being converted into a video game franchise, there’s not a lot that’s worthy in there.

Trust me, I’ve played a good number of HnK games, starting with the ones for the NES/Famicom…believe me when I say that a lot of them suck! :rofl:

And yeah, Aries…your avatar is awesome.

Who made his av anyways? I call dibs on a Toki av.

I’m a tier whore.

What happened today Aries? We need to get some games in soon.

That sounds interesting aswell.Maybe one day we can get another vs game from capcom…

does anyone know toki’s cd combo connect

does anyone know a good site to order HnK?

Play Asia is reliable IMO http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-40-49-en-70-1s1p.html

play-asia.com, yesasia.com and I believe ncsx.com are the immediate ones I can name that are all offering the game.

the toki question

What?

I SWEAR TA GAWD I WANNA PLAY MORE!! I need to play another character but just can’t decide… They need more characters.

vids vids vids more vids less discussion and fantasizing

So any news on any changes?

Word its like this game dropped off the face of this earth in the vids department, but what can I say GGX:AC and Arcana Hearts both stopped people from playing in japan .Also it not being at SBO this year.

Pretty sure the big names who were still playing decided to quit … White and Hige. Don’t really expect much more out of this game until at least the console version comes out, if not a sequel.

Woops, forgot to mention earlier that Raoh Gaiden subbed is out by Heart of Madness. Enjoy mofuckas.

Any idea when the official release of said dvd is?

Hopefully this thread is going to pick back up in a big way when the ps2 version finally comes out.

The Raoh Gaiden dvd has already released in Japan. No word on an official US release yet.

Other good news, Yuria Gaiden releases Feb. 23rd, 2007, straight to DVD. You can view the trailers at http://www.hokuto-no-ken.jp/index2.html , just click the trailer icon on the bottom while on the right side of the screen. Looks like we’ll get to see Kenshiro v Shin and Kenshiro v Raoh 1 reanimated, goooooooooood times.
