Whoa, Guile has been pumping up the roids.
If SNK gives him new moves, then I'm there. They need to give ALL the Capcom characters one or two new moves.

Well, Roufuss, looks like you may be a bit dissapointed....
New characters.....

Kasumi Todoh
Balrog ( Claw )
M. Bison ( Boxer )

hmmm, what an odd line up...
Odd. Yes.Quote:

Kasumi? Gah.
Not too fond of the others, either... But. Damn. That must be everyone now. Something just struck me, however: no Geese or Vega [JPN]? That's actually nice.
EDIT: Give me Morrigan and I will be completely set.
Trueminator, over at http://www.snk-capcom.com, estimates that there will be 26 total characters. He's usually a pretty damn reliable source, so I bet there will be a few more.Quote:

Perhaps this is an indication that we will see more characters tomorrow, on the 3rd day of E3.
This is one bad ass picture - :cool:
Balrog? Vega? And here I thought Playmore wanted to get away from CvS2...
Hopefully there's more on the way, especially with them reusing KOF sprites.

Everything in the video footage looks like completeley redrawn sprites to me.
Kyo and Ryo are definitely using their KOF sprites. Everyone else was made from scratch.Quote:

So much for the hopes of a high-animation, high-res comeback for SNK. Like most their games, the system should be pretty solid, but it looks like a step-down from SF3, around MotW, and definitely nowhere close to GGX2. I said it in the other thread as well, but they really need to release a polished port of this on a major home system with online play, otherwise, it'll just fade into obscurity like MotW.
I wonder what Sagat would look like if he was in this......
I hope Dan sits this one out.
I'm still not sure those are reused sprites.Quote:

Regardless, I don't know why you'd ever hope for SVC to be high res. It is running on the Neo Geo after all. It's tough to go high-res on a machine with a resolution of 320x224.
I have a feeling we're going to find out. I'm still hoping for some more characters. ;)Quote:

I think we're going to get Sagat and either Blanka or E. Honda on the Capcom side.
On the SNK side, I really can't see them making this without K'. After that who knows, maybe Kim.
I know...there was just speculation. But why are games still running on the Neo Geo anyway? It's not like other companies use the same hardware for their arcade games for like, 10 years or something (I don't know too much about Neo Geo).Quote:

I'm not sure the sprites are reused either, but, they don't look all that amazing nonetheless. I liked the way SNK characters were rendered in CvS2 better than the way Capcom characters are done in SNK style. Still, it definitely looks better than CvS2, so that's something.
I like the new character choices, especially Mr. Karate and M. Bison / Balrog.
Since Ryu and Ken look a lot more like their SF2 versions than anything else, I wonder if M. Bison / Balrog will look like his skinnier SF2 design. Same goes for Guile, Chun-Li (though I personally hope she looks like her SF3 design), Dhalsim, Balrog / Vega, and Gouki.
Argh, need more screens!
Feh.
These vs. games have far too many SF characters on the Capcom side. Or, more particularly, too many SFII characters, which I tired of 8 years ago. I'd like to see some more from Alpha, III, or even EX. A good move in that direction with Hugo, but I'd like more. Not to mention some Rival Schools, Star Gladiator, or even Power Stone folks.
You'll never see any EX characters outside of the EX series- they are owned by Arika and not Capcom...
I agree. I'd love to see some characters like Kairi (SFEX), Zaki (RS), Edge (RS), Wang Tang (PS), etc in there. I like all of the old World Warrior characters, but it seems they're always prerequisites in games like this.
Dissapointed, FighterX?
Yea, a little bit. Kasumi is a good choice, I liked her in KoF and she was underused... plus, she has a pretty rich background, which is nice. I'd rather Mr. Karate actaully BE Takuma, cause I can't stand that mask, but that's a great character.
But wait? What's this? Yes, more SF 2 garbage. I'm sorry, but Dudley is more superior to Balrog (U.S names) in every way, shape, or form, and ESPICALLY character. This is almost the whole damn SF 2 line up, and it's really sad, because Capcom has alot to draw upon, and not just SF 2.
They probably won't update their moves, so it'll be the damn characters I've played in at least 7 or 8 different versions now. AWESOME!
You people can spend your 250 bucks on the neo version, but if I feel the need to play Street Fighter 2 I can just pop my 4 dollar Genesis cartridge in.
Sorry, but SNK dissapointed me big time so far.
I'm not real big on fighters, but I would have liked to see Karin(spelling?) from SFA3 on the roster.
From http://www.snk-capcom.com -
"
S-C.com interviewed both SNK NEOGEO USA's President, Ben Herman and Capcom's VP of Sales, Chris Jelinek at E3 today. Both interviews will be up on our "INTERVIEW" page for viewing.
All we can say is, there is definitely some interesting news from both Capcom and SNK NG USA.
We have also confirmed that there are hidden characters in SVC CHAOS, which we believe there are 4 of them, bringing the current total to 24. This number, however, is not the final total, so there should be more to come.
"
So it looks like there are 4 hidden, plus some more. Hoepfully we'll find out who the non-hidden characters are rather quickly.
The interviews mentioned are not up yet, but they'll be here when they do get posted.
I want Gen. :(
i hate balrog so fuckin much.horid design and character.Dudley is just so much better.i meen damn Vanessa is a much better boxer than balrog.sigh.how bout some Donovan or some ORO.ORO is better than both characters they announced for te cap side so far.And i really hope that Breaking makes it to the game.i loved Garou for that little innovation.really i am just hopeing its good and not a totally sack of shit like CvS2
JBNagis
Ibuki! they need to put Ibuki in the game
Yeah Ibuki would make a great addition to the roster.along side Hanzo,Shigen,and Q.Quote:

Here are my feelings on the matter, cut and pasted from another forum:
--------------
1.) Dhalsim? Give me Necro.
2.) Balrog? ( U.S. ) Give me Dudley.
3.) Ryo? Give me Robert.
4.) 3 Shotos? B.S. Ken and Ryu are the only ones you need.
5.) Choi? Arrggghhh......
6.) Pizza Boy-Terry? How about MOTW Terry?
7.) Mr. Karate in the Tengu mask is nice, but it's still Takuma.
8.) KOF Kyo? Jeez, Redraw him in his new post KOF 99' clothes.
9.) Vega? ( U.S. ) Jeez........
Leona? Ralf? Murako ( Warzard Ninja ), Hanzo Hattori?
I certainly hope that last few people they announce are characters that we haven't seen in a while.........like KISARAGI, who seems to be one of the most requested characters.
When i saw the vid, my first thought was "HOLY SHIT, TABASA IS AWESOME."
She is slowly becoming the number one reason I want to play this game. It looked great, on my e3 top 5 list.
There's a vid? Satsuki, would you mind telling me where I could see it?
oh crap! well you know what, I've got footage of it on my cam, so let me see how to get that online (because I have nooooo idea how, I'll have to ask) and I'll put it up for you guys. It was just the movie that SNK was showing at their booth, it had an example of a few characters in action. Pretty short movies but I think I got the entire loop.

At this point I wouldn't hold out expecting any of the extra characters being anything special.
I am wondeirng about the bosses though. Will we be getting past bosses or will they do something cool and create a brand new boss for this game? Just have to wait and see.
I agree with FighterX for the most part.
And a new boss? We ARE talking about SNK, give me a break. It'll be Rugal, and Bison. And if it's not Rugal, then Geese.
I'd love to see someone like Orochi, but it'll never happen. SNK has only used Rugal as a boss, what, 4 times now in KoF's 8 years? That, and they can just reuse an old sprite of him.
I'm holding out for Vanessa, Yamazaki, Billy Kane, Duck King, Leona, Kensou, K', Kula... the list goes on and on. Well I see any of them? Probably not.
This thread just shows SNK can shovel any sort of rehashed, crap lineup, and people will STILL eat it up. No offense, but I don't see why anybody could really be overjoyed playing as the same SF 2 and KoF cast of the last few years.
SNK has the chance to pull out all the stops, bring back a ton of old characters and fan favorites, but it's just the same old thing. Hell, had this game been diverse and awesome enough, I would have put down the money for the MVS cart and Neo Geo ASAP.
I guess it's because I've played fighters since forever, and seeing Ryu, Ken, Dhalsim, and Balrog just don't excite me anymore. Same with yet another Kyo, Iori, and pizza boy Terry (even though he's my favorite character).
I thought the Boss in this game was Mr. Karate (Takuma)? He's not really powerful enough to be a Boss, but the opening trailer gives the impression that he's a Boss..Quote:

You know, I used to be one to carry SNK's banner high over Capcom HQ because I was so enamored with their unique characters and personalities. But you're right, Playmore is dropping the ball here. SNK has such a wonderful cast of characters to draw from, especially in a game called SNK vs. Capcom, which should be making use of several diverse characters from several genres. Street Fighter vs. King of Fighters I did not want.Quote:

Where are the Top Hunters? Mordred from Metal Slug, complete w/Boss mech? Lee (AOF2)? Rosa (Kizuna Encounter)? The Twinkle Star Sprites cast?? Where are the Vampire series cast?? Devilotte? Arthur or Maximo??
One of the reasons Match of the Millenium on the NGPC was so great is because it used more than just KOF/SF characters. The mini-games put it over the top as one of the best fighting games ever, never mind that is portable.
I am rather disappointed with the current roster. I, like most, hope for some more diverse characters (unlockable), but I don't think I'm going to get that. Of course, I'll still buy this game when it comes to console, but I would've purchased an MVS kit 'n kaboodle if this had been done properly. As it stands, MotM stands to be the better game.
We shall see..
::sits back and waits for "stop whining, be glad it's coming out at all!"::
I just think it'd be nice to see one Garou character... but this game is definitely looking to be incredible.

I can't get the SNK Vs Capcom movies to work. I'm on 98' with MP7, but all I get is the "visualizations" graphics and sound. Can anyone help please?
So far it seems to me CvS2 has the better character selection than SvC.
At least CvS2 has Haohmaru, Nakoruru, Eagle, King, Yuri, Geese, Hibiki, Todo, Chang, etc.
It's the fact, that sometimes, companies do take a chance but axing alot of the cast, and you get real gems like Garou and SF 3.Quote:

I understand the need to use popular characters, but when the entire roster is JUST popular characters except for about 3 or 4, that kind of sucks.
Like I said, I've played with the entire SF 2 cast since the game hit the arcade. Seeing Ryu, Ken, and Guile isn't exciting anymore in the least. I see the need to add them, but Balrog instead of Dudley? Three shotos?
You can bitch about CvS 2 all you want, but it was damn diverse. Every character added was either one we haven't seen in a LONG time (Haohmaru and Eagle), some of the newer blood (like Rock), and some real gems nobody excepted (Maki, and the chick from LB 2 who I'm forgetting).
At this point, SNK has forgotten it has games past KoF 98 and Samurai Shodown 1 and 64, and seems Capcom is only worth SF 2 and 3 and Tabasa (I think she's from Warzard).
If the other characters are hella cool, then yea, I'm all for it. But this is just another example that a company like SNK can pump out generic stuff, and their fans will still buy it. I'm pretty sure the game could just be Ryu and Ken vs Kyo and Iori and some of the fans would still spend 250 on it.
You know, one thing that I haven't heard anyone ask is whether there will be a "story mode" like the KOF games. What I mean is individual storylines and endings for each character...unlike the craptastic generic endings in the CvS games.
CvS 2 had the stock main characters of part 1 to build on .Quote:

The fact we already had a dream match game like this then, with alot of the same characters, is even more of a reason to add in people we haven't seen yet.Quote:

I mean, this will be the 4th Capcom vs SNK game, and looks to be the least diverse out of the 4.

Oh yeah, check out the SvC thread in headlines. We have some video of the game in action.
Cody looks pretty cool, but SFA-wise (or FF-wise, if you wanna be anal) I would have preferred, well, almost any other character.
What games are Hayate and Hwa Jai from?
Is it just me, or does K' just an incredibly glaring ommision? ...I mean, he's supposed to be the new poster boy for KOF.
holy shit, Cody looks awesome!
I can't wait for this game.
Hayate is from SNK's Savage Reign/Kizuna Encouter games and Hwa Jai was an opponent in Fatal Fury 1. (He he drank this liquid in battle that powers him up.)Quote:

Nice of them to put some more fairly obscure folks on the SNK side... though I was crossing my fingers for Fio.
Now if the Capcom side can do the same with it's remaining lineup, I'd be happy. I'd geek out if they put in Akira from Rival Schools.
Boss-wise, I think it'd be awesome if they did a 180 on CvS and put in, say, Grant or Kain and Kurow or Hyo. Someone completely unexpected.
Ah, can't say I'm too crestfallen they're not real. I thought it was odd that Cody didn't have handcuffs, and now that I look at the Hayate screen closer, you can actually see the hands of the character he was pasted over.
hmmm, well that sucks.
though I still want this game.
GATO PLEASE GOD DAMN IT
Heh, in that Hwa Jai 'screenshot', his sprite is just an edited Joe Higashi sprite, and the M. Bison / Balrog sprite is an edited Heavy D! sprite.
Four more:

Fuck Sagat, honestly. Single most despised character ever.
Genjruo, though... Good move. He's not a personal favorite or anything, but you catch my drift.
Yea SNK, you keep pimping out SF 2, for whatever god forsaken reason. I know I'll get the argument of "characters that need to be recognized", but fucking shit, it's almost the entire SF 2 staff.
Fuck you Playmore, for not having any sort of imagination.
Kim's in? I'm pretty happy with the roster. Genjuro kicks ass.
The SNK side is definitely looking better at this point. All we need now is some Bakumatsu blood to step up. Setsuna, Lee Rekka, Moriya...someone.
I know, it really sucks to play with the greatest fighting game characters ever made :wtf:Quote:

Genjuro kicks ass.
I think the Line up is looking pretty nice
theyre obviously going to go with which ever characters are most popular
why put unpopular characters in there
and id imagine that games like CvS2 helped them decide who was popular and what not
Genjuro does kick ass I'm so happy. i wonder if he'll be "all new" and not some past sprite from SS3 or something.
Kim rocks I hope they use his 2k2 sprite.
Capcom side needs some variation, I'm sick of these boss caracters.
He'll be redrawn. The SS3 sprite wouldn't fit with the KOF look.Quote:

Genjuro rocks the house. Throw in Amano and I'm a happy man.
Sagat and Vega AGAIN?!
Genjuro is cool, kudos, ( I hope there's not Haohmaru ), but the other new character choices SUCK ASS. For Kim, it'd be decent of them to use the Real Bout FF version.
I know that people are saying, "the game needs to be recognizable", but they could have easily done that with a 1/2 old 1/2 new cast. Instead, we get the same SF2 characters we've been using for the past 15 years.
Bullshit.
The lineup is looking better...but I'm disappointed with the lack of female characters....
No Athena? King? Yuri? Leona? Vanessa? Cham Cham?
Not surprised the lineup continues it's uninteresting trend. The game looks to play well, at least it can thrive off that.
I hate you.Quote:

Genjuro is definitely my favorite SamSho character. good stuff.
TO all those people complaining that the lineup is uninteresting...I was just wondering is..can you do better? What sort of lineup would you choose that would insure that both sides are well "represented" and the game will still have mainstream appeal? IF you try to work it out yourself you might find your lineup is not much different from what Playmore has chosen....I mean some of you complaining about all the shotos...if you take out the shotos, can you still honestly expect the game to be popular?
PB, that sig is too large - please resize it to 160x100 or I will delete your account :p
If you go back, you'll see many choices that were made by us from games that are still recognizable.
I still say that the game could have been 50% old and 50% new, and still be marketable.
Uh, what chance would there be of this title not being popular?Quote:
if you take out the shotos, can you still honestly expect the game to be popular?
I can easily say leave in Ryu, Ken, Chun Li, either Bison or Sagat, and then put in Remy or Charlie for Guile, Dudley for Balrog (if they really WANT a boxing type), Guy, some Rivals Schools characters, Yun or Yang, some SF 1 characters (I know there was a cool ninja in there), Darkstalkers characters (there's a good number of them that would work), etc etc etc.
As FX said, even 4 or 5 noticeable characters would be more than enough. And you'd be stupid to tell me someone like Yun isn't as popular, hell I'd say MORE popular, than Balrog or Vega :rolleyes: (American names).
Yea, and as dog$ mentioned, this title is popular regardless among the fanbase Playmore is trying to hit. I highly doubt this title would be NOT popular, unless of course people are getting sick of these dream-matches.
With the exception of a few guys, the lineup is pretty damn good. I would have put in Gen An for Choi, and ditched Ryo and Kyo alltogether. Gato would have been in there, as well as Marco (Just so he could fight Ryu). Add in Amano, and maybe Zantetsu, Cham Cham and Wan Fu. Well, I'm just going overboard now. For Capcom, I'd probably ditch Ken, but Keep Sagat, Akuma, and Ryu. I'd get rid of Balrog for Dudley. I'm not sure who I would put in there...
Too bad these are faked. :( It could've been interesting to have Hwa Jai in this game. I'd set it up so you could use one power stock to have him drink- in FF, it enables him to do a grievously damaging "ROCKET!" attack. For a playable HJ in SvC, there should be a limit of one rocket per drink- but it should be one of the more damaging supers in the game.Quote:
Originally posted by Ammadeau

Note the original screens were from E3, where none of these characters were seen.
Well, let's just say for the sake of argument, that the final roster is around 30 characters. They could have had, say like 7 old Capcom characters ( like Ryu/Ken/ChunLi/Guy/Bison/ ), 8 new Cap. characters ( Dudley/Urien/P.Akira/Hyo/ ), 7 old SNK characters ( Kyo/Iori/MOTW Terry/Mai/ etc. ), and 8 new characters ( Shiki/Ralf/Leona/Rick Strowd or Vanessa etc etc ).Quote:

I mean honestly, if you are even remotely interested in fighting games, you know about the Vs. Series in one way or another. Recognizability isn't really an issue, IMHO.
Honestly, why don't they just announce E.Honda and Zangief, and get it over with? :bang:
They've put the "popular" characters in these games with such unerring regularity that anyone who plays these vs. games is sick and tired of them. If they keep putting the usual suspects in, that makes them not only unpopular, but maligned. Give them a rest.Quote:
why put unpopular characters in there
As to who I would put, given 30 spots to fill, 15 on each side:
Capcom:
Ryu, Ken, and Chun-li are givens. They won't budge and you're a fool if you think otherwise.
Warzard: Tabasa
Rival Schools: Akira, Daigo, Kurow
SFA: Karin, Sodom
SF3: Ibuki, Hugo, Yang
SF2: Vega/Balrog
Vampire: Donovan
Star Gladiator: June
SNK:
Kyo, Iori and Mai are the same as Ryu, Ken, & Chun-li.
KOF: Takuma, K', Yashiro, Vanessa
LB: Setsuna
SS: Genjuro, Cham Cham
Garou: Terry, B. Jenet, Freeman, Grant
FF: Duck King
edit: whoops, Grant's from Garou, not LB. I'm a moron.
You're about on the same track as I am, but I would have used Hyo instead of Kurow :)
Good list. Donovan would be killer.
If that was the actual roster, then I would be Neo Geo +1 and SvC +1.Quote:

I'd pay 600 bucks just for the fact SNK threw in some of the greatest characters ever, if that was the real roster.
So true. It's a shame when you go into a new fighting series, having no desire to use 95% of the cast because you know how they will play.Quote:

You're about on the same track as I am, but I would have used Hyo instead of Kurow :)
Glad my list was well-recieved.
I'd use a toned down J. Talbain instead of Donovan, though.
Being that it's on Neo hardware, I'm guessing only arcade goers and SNK fans will care. Unless they port...but even then, since when has an SNK port sold well?Quote:

It's their ( SNK's ) own fault. Staying on the Neo was a bad decision. They seem to cater more towards their small fan base ( who can afford the games ), rather than gaining exposure by using updated CD-based hardware.Quote:

Well, it seems like they're at least trying to make everyone in the lineup human, and Talbain'd look a tad out of place... Donovan's basically all you could use from Vampire in that respect, aside from Buletta. Also, I think Donovan would be better in that he has a unique move list and would be more of a challenge to play as, which I also took into account when making my picks. I didn't want the list bogged down with characters who are all quarter-circle/half-circle move heavy.Quote:

Not that I'd be tremendously heartbroken if such a substitution occurred.
PS2 port coming by December (though unclear if this is to Japan or US), according to the new head of SNK USA. No word on an xbox port.Quote:

I would do things a tad differently (Makoto instead of Hugo and Clark instead of Takuma) but that's a solid roster. Certainly more interesting than SF2 vs KOF94 :rolleyes:Quote:

As to who I would put, given 30 spots to fill, 15 on each side:
Capcom:
Ryu, Ken, and Chun-li are givens. They won't budge and you're a fool if you think otherwise.
Warzard: Tabasa
Rival Schools: Akira, Daigo, Kurow
SFA: Karin, Sodom
SF3: Ibuki, Hugo, Yang
SF2: Vega/Balrog
Vampire: Donovan
Star Gladiator: June
SNK:
Kyo, Iori and Mai are the same as Ryu, Ken, & Chun-li.
KOF: Takuma, K', Yashiro, Vanessa
LB: Setsuna
SS: Genjuro, Cham Cham
Garou: Terry, B. Jenet, Freeman, Grant
FF: Duck King
edit: whoops, Grant's from Garou, not LB. I'm a moron.
I'm quite pleased with the character roster at the moment. The Capcom side could be stronger though.
Heres my dream list of characters, which is sure to piss people off, as I basically threw in my faves:
Capcom:
Ryu - SF
Ken - SF
Akuma - SF
Chunli - SF
Karin - SFA3
Rolento - SFA
Hsien-ko - Dark Stalkers
Dan - SFA
Bison - SF
Scullomania - SF ex
Akira - Rival Schools
Venom - MvC2 (well MvC2 IS a capcom game)
Zangief - SF
Wang Tang - Power Stone
Batsu - Rival Schools
SNK:
Kyo - KOF
Iori - KOF
Mai - KOF
Ralph - KOF
Leona - KOF
Clark - KOF
Vanessa - KOF
Gato - Garou
Setsuna - Last Blade 2
Kagami - Last Blade
Tizoc - Garou
B Jenet - Garou
Kazuki - Samurai Shodown 4
Sonya - Rage of the Dragons
The Capcom side is a little weak, as I don't really like many Capcom characters.
Ah another Karin fan. I'm so upset she's only in SFZ3, easily my favourite Capcom character. It's so much fun roughing up shoto scrubs with her.
yeah, she is great. I'd love to see SNK's take on her.
Still, not a bad list at all. Sonya would be great, as well as Wang Tang, but I'd also like to see Rouge ( the gypsy ) or even GunRock. Fokker would probably be their main choice. Kazuki would definitely be good, as he is an awesome, but underused character. Seeing the Big Fall Griffon would pretty be spiffy, too :)Quote:

Anyone against the mixing of weapon-based fighters (Shiki, Earthquake, Genjuro...) in this game?
Just curious.
It's not really an issue to me. If it helps make things a true Snk vs. Capcom, as long as it's well done, I'm all for it.
I still wanted Hattori Hanzo :(
Hmm...antiquated 2D graphics, stiff animation, 0 new characters, and gameplay more-or-less identical to what's been released for the past 6 years.Quote:

I'm happy with Genjuro, but I'd like to see Capcom delve into some of their other titles rather than just remaking SF 2. How many are left to go? is there still hope for a Garou character?
Well here would be my "dream-list" of characters:
Capcom:
Ryu
Ken
Chun Li
Zangief
Vega (Balrog)
Nash
Alex
Dudley
Rouge (Powerstone)
Felicia (Darkstalkers)
Cammy
Guy
Jill (MvC2)
Strider
Boss - M.Bison
SNK:
Terry
Mai
K'
Kyo
Iori
Daimou
Whip
Ryo
Fio (Metal Slug)
Leona
King
Hanzo
Earthquake
B.Jenet
Boss - Rugal
Nice list, a few on there that almost made the cut on mine. Rouge, Alex, and Fio are especially good inclusions.
I'm not a big Whip fan, though, and Rugal & Bison are just plain worn out as bosses.
:lol: :lol: :lol:Quote:

Man, you might as well sit back. We've still got T.Hawk, Cammy, FeiLong, and DeeJay to use! *JOY* THEN, maybe of there's a sequel, we MIGHT get one or two ALPHA characters.......but they'll probably be the Alpha versions of Ken and Ryu! *Whheeeeee!* Oh, MAAYYBE we'll get Alpha......Blanka!Quote:

Oh, and for a Garou character, probably not at this point. I don't think we'll ever see them in action again at this rate. It isn't like people haven't been requesting them for how long now.
I'll go, I guess.
This list isn't my dream line-up, but more like one that attempts to satisfy most people + a good deal of variety.
Capcom
Perennials: Ryu, Ken, Chun-li
SF2: Guile (must have a new special or two)
SFA: Karin
SF3: Q, Makoto, Alex
Rival Schools: Akira, Daigo, Tiffany
Final Fight: Haggar, Poison
Darkstalkers: Talbain (human form. Goes wolf only in supers)
Warzard: Tabasa
SNK
Perennials: Terry, Mai, Kyo, Iori
Fatal Fury: Duck King, Alfred
Art of Fighting: Kisaragi
Garou: B.Jenet, Kim Dong Hwan, Butt (needed a Kyokyugan)
KOF: Shermie, Heidern
SS: Shiki, Ukyo
LB: Lee Recca
