Youtube series in the works for underrated FGs

Gotta have Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure

SFEX2+

It looks goofy but it’s insanely technical for 1998

Read the 2nd post, as I understand it the show will be like this:

Only more technical, right?

I could help with covering the Real Bout Fatal Fury games, especially Real Bout 2.

The nostalgia train is taking me for a riiiiiiiide now.
+1 TMNT fighting game. It had frickin super arts in it and everything. That shark dude was the best!

real cool to see OP idea getting alot of interest and even support. Hopefulyl this start to something good.

+1 for TMNT TF SNES and thx Keobas for support! We enjoyed a LOT and miss the CVJ scene days.

I like this idea, I’ve had a small fantasy of doing something like this (I was gonna call it Forgotten Games Fridays, something cheesy ya know).

Be cool to see Tobal 2 and Super Dragonball Z, maybe even a Bloody Roar. I don’t know too much about these games, when it comes to a competitive level, but they look fun.

Basically. Kinda saddenned that Team Best from Now did the PR game. I dont wanna re-break down games that were already done.

Unless there is huge fan demand.

agree

though is the series goal to bring light of underrated titles or just game that haven’t been broke down yet?

Both really. But also to attempt to answer the question, why didnt these fighters sell better, get more attention, or get a tourney scene?

For many games the answer is simply because if it isnt Capcom or Namco then consumers DO NOT WANT!!!

But then there are games like Rival Schools. This game flew so far under the radar its at the bootom of the ocean where the sea monsters hang out. It only pushed a little over 500k in units. Battle Arena Toshinden pushed 1.27.

What the fuck happened here? Thats one of the things the show will look at.

Episodes are going to have any format? O mean, part 1: control and mechanics, part 2: small game backstory and intro. part 3: etc etc ?

That is precisely the goal.

My buddy is going HARD for this. Building a PC just for recording, streaming and gaming.

Yeap, this deserves more love.

Oh yeah, do a episode on Plasma Sword. I didn’t get a chance to play it, but I would like to know why exactly it flopped on release.

Mmmmm great. Going the extra mile would be to contact old game developers, or even FGC old heads that played some of those underrated games. I would LOVE to know WHAT felt the people that in their age played ST side to side to MKII and Primal Rage. Or even if Eternal Champions had a scene, stuff like that, to hear old stories of those games.

I was interested in the “underrated” then you mention “Rival Schools series at the very top followed by Bloody Roar, Psychic Force, some DBZ”

Not interested now. At all. And those are hardly underrated games, several of those games had side tourneys at Evo.

In and subbed!

I’m all for this and look forward to the series. But please play legit or somewhat legit fighting games.

Virtually every game has had some sort of side tourney at EVO (I was watching people play on a Kaiser Knuckle cab at EVO 2012). Just because there was a side tournament for some Psychic Force 2012 doesn’t mean that it wasn’t underrated. I sure as hell didn’t see a cab at my local arcade back in 2000.

Anyways, I’ve preemptively subbed.
