"According to 1up.com:
SNK Playmore plans to release an upgraded version of Samurai Spirits Zero (Samurai Shodown V to American players) in Japanese arcades this spring, according to order solicitations from arcade distributors. Samurai Spirits Zero Special will feature adjustments to gameplay balance based on player feedback from the original version, as well as new playable characters.
Those characters may cause some balance problems of their own, though. They're all boss characters -- Amakusa Shiro from the original Samurai Spirits, Zankuro from Samurai Spirits 3, and the trio of Yumeji, Sankuro, and Gaoh from Samurai Spirits Zero proper. Mizuki, the second game's boss, is sadly nowhere to be seen.
A PlayStation 2 version of Samurai Spirits Zero is in the works, although its release date is unspecified. Hopefully we'll see the improvements from the Special version included in the home release as well, when SNK chooses to update the world with more information."
Since this hasn't been officially stated by playmore i'm not sure what to make of it, seems weird that they would just add 2 lame SS bosses & no one else. Anyways if this is true ill be happy cause its not about the new characters to me but a rebalance of the game.
