Also, for some reason I often lose control of my character while they do some weird pose (not stunned).  It is at that time my ass gets beaten.  Is there a way to turn off the poses?
That would be the POW charge pose (not sure what it's "really" called) and you're not the first person to complain about it. I believe they removed this little "feature" in later SS games for that very reason. As if we couldn't tell from the flashing "POW!" on the bottom of the screen that the bar's full! And there's no way to turn it off.

If you hate the game so much, sell it to me. I don't even have a machine yet but I'd rather own a copy of the game then to see it blown up for YouTube mindless monkey entertainment. [-X

- Capcom makes the best video game fighters ever.
- I disagree, it's a very good company, but I think SNK makes the best fighters ever.
- SNK sucks.
- You know something? YOU SUCK!
hahaha, so many ways that can be altered for this, and other arguments!
I need to watch that movie again, sometime soon....

HA HA HA! EXCELLENT! I had never thought of the idea of modifying that quote. That was very funny. :) I actually planned on re-watching it (for like the 20th time) a couple of days ago. :P


I have been playing Brandish 2 SNES at last (I've played it many times before, but never the SNES version). GREAT game, but not as good as Brandish 3. :)

Seld... FM-77,

That last post of mine sums up the last 2 dozen posts or so.

It's a bit like "cliff-notes".

Certain conversations of, "this is better than that", bring that quote, and a lot of laughter to me.


Gaming... I haven't done any in the past 2 days, however I did play about 2 hours of Magical Drop 2 on Friday. I used about 30 credits on the final opponent before I decided to stop. I'll return to it at a lower difficulty so I can get past the last opponent and see the ending, hah.

Hey now, I said it might have worth as a two player game!  I can't wait to pose with my friends.  I will strike the better pose.  It's on!

Quote from: Mike

Take a pic of your cracked stick. I really wanna see that.





It looks like a hairline crack and pretty much feels like one, however yesterday it was a full-fledged bump that I had to push back into place.  Curiously my knob doesn't have any cracks.  No hammers were involved.  Just mashing many buttons, HARD.

Holy Jebus, Joe!  I've sent a few Turbo controllers to an early grave with a cracked board by flexing the controller with aggressive button crushing, but never a NeoGeo stick.  They're usually pretty durable, but I guess it's better to take the frustration out on the stick rather than kickin' your dog (or wife, cat, kids, whatever).

I'd like to see someone try busting the Sega Arcade Stick for the Genesis.  Toughest sticks I have ever used, and quite weighty!

:shock: Holy F**K that is a thing of beauty.

I totally have a thing for arcade sticks for home consoles. I grew up playing games in the '80s man, during the golden age of arcades and Atari -- I'm a dyed-in-the-wool joystick man. I got the Advantage stick for the NES, and it wasn't until I got a Super NES that I begrudgingly started using pads (even then I got the Super Advantage, but found it a little sketchy). SNK packaging the Neo-Geo with two sticks made the ridiculous price tag of the AES worth every penny in my eyes (not that I paid that for mine, but still...the perception of value was there). The Saturn Virtua Stick from Sega and the almighty Dreamcast arcade stick from ASCII got me through countless shmups and fighters. And lately I have been lusting after a Hori Real Arcade Pro -- any version -- for the PS2.

But I've never seen that VSP for Saturn...wow! I want one!
