I hope we have pics this time... and I hope people can start giving their opinions on the new timeout system, so that if it sucks, SNKP can change it while they still have time.

Iori is SO kicking Ash's butt into subission...

Kyo? At home tending to Chizuru with his specially hand fried chicken.

Iori never changes much, that's why he's useful each year~ Hohohoho~

I dunno if I asked this before:

Did Iori have an outfit change?

If not, then *inser DDR's "BOO" here*

Considering that, supposedly, he was already spotted as a CPU player in the first loke test, it seems that he didn't. But I still have my doubts if he was really seen in the first loke test, since I only saw one person reporting having seen him...

Not really sure about the veracity of the appearance of Iori as a CPU opponent due to the simple fact that...

You disabled characters to tweak them somehow, right? So if the character is available as a CPU opponent, it means nothing is changed?

So the disabling is for....?

Feck.. i dunno if the fact that it's hosted at 2chan that i can't see the scans.... or... well.. bleh.

I know KK will be happy for Duck King being in there...

Where did Duck King come from? Why is there such a following for him?

Iori in the same outfit? Hmm... No complains? LOL Any idea if he's changed in any way?

7d3j: Duck King is from Fatal Fury.

C&P of Iggy's post:

All characters are usable. Whip has a new super where she moves forward while whipping, laughably bad.
Maximaâ€™s D is new, looks like Daimonâ€™s. His jump D is also new, drop kick.
Duolon has a new super with his legs coming out of the ground (XNDL?). Heâ€™s super weak and stiff.
Kensu has that move he had in 99. His leader super is new, he puts the hand to the ground and sends energy in it, power wave. New pose, new clothes.
Momoko is supremely kimoi. Her move list is in hiragana, phoenix arrow, become a star, esperâ€¦ Interesting how they managed to disgust even the perverts from the very move list. â€œIchiban Momoko ikimasuâ€, hip attackx3 like Ioriâ€™s moveâ€¦ She makes weird pikopiko sounds when she walks. Her throw swallows from very far away. Oh, and sheâ€™s supposed to use capoera? Someone says Richard Mayer Midnight Bliss would look like this.
Ramon is the same. His leader is his MAX2 (new name?).
Janet is the same as in MOTW.
Duck King looks like the 00 striker. The Break Spiral command has NOT been simplified : 4123698 kick. At least thatâ€™s goodâ€¦
Iori copipe copipe. His new moves makes him use just the finish animation of the Saika.
Eijiâ€™s leader super is an air move. Nothing much new here. Itâ€™s not his 95 sprite, heâ€™s been arranged to post 96 proportions (his intro against a kyokugen team member comes from Billy/Ioriâ€™s intro in 98 (copicopicopipe). His moves have a lot of priority, no lagâ€¦ Duolon->Eiji.
Alps no shÃ´jo Adelheid has a new Kaiser Wave. His protection and power are multiplied, heâ€™s Ã¼ber strong (heâ€™s the middle boss).
The last boss is 中国が舞台の映画で、事件が起きたら真っ先に不幸が振りかかりそうな感じの村娘. HAHAHAHAHA. Sheâ€™s quite weak compared to Heidi.

Shining yakusa kick on the AW!

Scan links don't appear to work. Too bad...

On topic...Ramon is the same, eh? Cool, maybe this time I can actually try to learn him properly. Momoko looks kind of cute, but I can't really say anything until I see the rest of her design.

I'm guessing she's probably an Athena fan or something, since one of her moves is called "Phoenix Arrow" (although it's written in hiragana). WTF.

And Eiji being as broken as Duolon = bad. That's something they're probably going to fix though.

If she's from Athena's 2k2 intro I'm not entirely sure if she's just a groupie or a pseudo-esper like Athena herself.

, with all my females back (kula kasumi vanessa), plus BJenet and 2 new ones, im almost not missing mai or andy... and Whip... finally a new DM, nice to know.

As for Eiji being badass, if you just port his moves to this engine without testing, of course he's gonna be huge, just wait for another test... I guess SNKP is trying to let Eiji rule a bit after being MIA for 10 years.

Wasn't Eiji's movelist huge in '95 to begin with?

He had like seven or so specials - not too abnormal by SNK standards.

I am shocked and amazed to hear that Whip finally has another DM (no, I don't count her HSDM - cool as it was). Even if it's just a worthless flurry attack it's about freakin time.

Actually, seven was pretty high compared to the other characters in '95.
