I know exactly what you mean Sonic, this news (providing it turns out to be true which I think it will) really made my day to be honest. Despite all the people that still seem to hate SNKP, I think we have had a damn good year, and it looks like we might be in for an even better one in 2004. I mean, look at it this way - we did have to put up with a few really bad/average games with Metal Slug 4, KOF 2001 and the like, but now we have:
SNK Vs Capcom - great fun, even if it is a little flawed in some respects
Samurai Shodown 5 - People seem to have forgotten about this, but everyone I know that has played it says it is one of the best Neo games they've played in a long time, even though some backgrounds have been recycled. A new SS game was long overdue anyway, this is still my personal fave series on the Neo Geo.
Metal Slug 5 - Every time I look at this it just blows me away. I really need to play it to know for sure, but this does look very close to the quality of MS3, perhaps even better in some ways.
KOF 2003 - After a few years of really average games (even though I found 2002 fun), this years KOF really does look extremely good. I am a little disappointed at a few things here and there, but overall I am more excited for this game than I have been for any game in the series since '99.
Matrimelee - Can't forget about this one, even though many people seem to have already. I did sell my MVS cart a while back as I had played it to death, but Matrimelee is a very cool game and it nevers fails to make me laugh with all the craziness that goes on in it. I'll probably get it again if the price drops down
And now we have SNK Vs Capcom 2 and hopefully a new Fatal Fury game on the way. Although I still don't *quite* agree with Trieu saying that things are better than they ever were with the old SNK, I really am starting to warm to SNKP now, and I thought they were *OK* before! I wonder what other tricks they have up their sleeves for next year?
