The Next Fist of the North Star/Hokuto no Ken thread

Im glad people see that Rei is the holy spirit and Toki is jesus.

Anyone type how to get the 2a to connect for the sai loop?

what is the official title for this game on PS2?

Maybe it’s just me cause I suck, but it seems if a move say kenshiro’s close D can cancel directly into the blowback attack(CD) you cannot cancel said move directly into Instant kill.

Luckily being awesome like I am(haha) I figured well if it works for combing into CD then maybe I can make it work for combing into instant kill, and it does. So basically if normally your attack couldn’t cancel into instant kill because the cancel into CD takes priority, you just need to do, CD, qcf+cd, I just do the motion twice and that seems to do the trick.

Again maybe this is unnecessary it’s a regular cancel that I just don’t seem to be able to do, but this has worked for me with all moves that can cancel directly into CD but I was having trouble canceling them into instant kill.

I noticed the same thing. The way I deal with it, though, is to do it like a link or at least a very late cancel. So with Kenshiro, if I’m juggling with D, I do the motion for the FKO slower than if I was trying to combo, say a 236+C after the D. Same thing with Rei. Sometimes, during a wall bounce combo, I take my opponent’s last star with a CD then boost into juggling with A then C then a slow 236+CD.

Hope this helps.

I join this request :frowning:

i try to do it as late as possible and i get good results i think but i need a more consist indicators for it.
Thanks.

Just wait for Raoh to take his hand off the Sai. Practice with that in mind.

I usually mash it and I get it, but my fingers get tired. Maybe I should time it instead.

I like this game, it seems balanced, character selection wise. for some odd reason i fell in love with Shin right off the bat, the guy is awsome, i love all the way i can combo into his C+D and set them up for about 50% damage in the corner, cool stuff.

Fuck yeah, Shin is da man! However I’ve been having a hard time lately with his 3star FKO combo, I can’t get the timing down, but I am still practicing it.

The combo I am talking about is this one:

63214A > 2C+E > 214C > E > C+D > E > C > 236C+D

This is supposed to work on everyone, anywhere, but I am having a hard time landing it on toki, supposdly I should add a 2A before the final C then do the FKO.

I am just having a hard after the C+D > E > C part D:

(Sigh)…

Does anyone out there have some wiki or some guide as to what the hell you guys are talking about?

JEsus…what is 52525432+B to a 3428-B-589829 combo???

What ever happened to like, c.lp or j.hk or :dfp:

lol, please…let me know

Wow Ken34, didn’t know you posted on SRK aswell as M-I…what up!

This post should give you enough info to get started

but think numpad notation
789
456
123

A-light punch
B-light kick
C-hard punch
D-hard kick
E-Boost

I still don’t understand why people can’t understand the numpad notation. lol

Anyways, we were discussing the Shin 7star FKO combo from the Fan DVD on irc… and we came up with this.

63214A > 2C > 214C > E > 5A > E > 2C > 5D > AC > 623B > land (opponent dizzied) > 63214A > C(far 2 hits) > CD > 6 > 2C > AC > 214C > E > B > 2C > FKO

This was done on Shin, anyone have a confirmation for this? We are testing it right now, hopefully we can come up with something stable as far as this combo is concerned, would be awesome to be able to pull this out with Shin more often. :smiley:

Sigh… No one is reading my guide:sweat:

For that Shin 7 star combo, I wonder that will walk on everyone. It’s like some character faint faster than others.

Hmm… it seems it fails at fainting, maybe I was off somewhere… I still think it fainted in the video cuz of a few hits before the combo started.

Maybe I really need to drop a few 236As before the combo. I gotta test this further.

Try 7 star FKO on Yuda or mamiya. I heard they faint faster.

Does anyone have a list of the extra games included on the bonus DVD?

I’ll be trying it out later, for now I need some sleep.

Anyone else feel free to try it while I sleep and get back to me. lol

really? haha do you mean Akuma from 3S??

So Souther suffers from Full Body Testicle Syndrome? :rofl: Well maybe Kenshiro just tells everyone that his pressure points are reversed like he found out in the manga / anime and he becomes easy for anyone to defeat. :rofl:

My copy should come in a week from now. I’m a HUGE fan of the Hokuto No Ken manga / anime and I’ve never played this game, really can’t wait. “YOU WA SHOCK!” :nunchuck:

There’s a page about the extras that are on the DVD, on the official game website.

Anyone know what the first mentioned extra is suppose to be? :wonder:
