SNK Discussion Madness/ SamShoV/0 Poppy Code

[The Bastard]

Apparently Galford's dog Poppy is a playable character. Here are some screens. It looks authentic enough IMO. Discuss.....

Looks like some ROM screengrabs more than anything.

Or plain old phonies.

They're quite possibly ROM screengrabs. 304 x 224 is the resolution and that tipped me off, given that this what the Neo-Geo runs at and also that these are pixel-perfect quality.

I've got a feeling that they're also fake- when one has access to the ROM, an arcade graphics editor/sprite ripper, and good Photoshop knowledge, they can do anything as far as doctoring a screen shot goes. Odds are good that this is a hoax, but I wouldn't mind eating these words.

[Despair]

Interesting. Since PS2 Shinobi had ninja dogs, I dont see why not Galfords best friend cant do some fighting as well

[Taito]

You guys know about Sanjuro, a sprite swap of Genjuro without the long hair, and he wields a large wooden mallet-type weapon instead of a sword?

Saw Sanjuro in action at TGS, dunno how to unlock the character though.

[The Bastard]

Yeah I know of Sanjuro. From what I can tell he's some sort of joke character. I assume he and the other boss characters are playable somehow. We'll probably find out sooner or later from either the ROMZ or somebody using a debug bios on their MVS cart.

Hey Poppy! (Woof!)

[The Bastard]

That was a very informative video Seven Force. Poppy being selectable is great. Now I don't have to pick that silly American Ninja.

[Werewolf]

All I have to say now is if it is true... SOLD!

[RoleTroll]

Interesting that the wolf sprite in the first screen and the third screen is identical.

EDIT: Well, after watching Seven Force's video, it's gotta be more than a simple screen fake.
