Wasn't SNK (or whoever is responsible for SNK now) developing a new SNK Vs. Capcom for the arcades ? When are they planning to release any new information about it (as well as screenshots) ?

I can be any person in the world ... maybe I'm this person right in front of you ... or maybe I'm not !!

Chances are we'll have to wait after Power Instinct 3 is released before we hear or see anything about SvC.

I wish SNK could be persuaded to work on some other kind of hardware... maybe on some of Capcom's for this project? I think even CPS2 would be a step up. Or maybe if they used Naomi... blah. It's amazing that MVS has been pushed so far for so long, but it has to limit them in some ways...

Both those are outdated too. Really they need to move up to the System 246 (or whatever the PS2 arcade board is called) or the Triforce or that XBox compatable arcade board... System 246 seems best since it's easiest to make ports to home systmes when you aim for the lowest factor.

As long as they don't use a board based on the neo geo pocket, it'll be fine with me.

CPS2 is pretty much the same powerwise as the MVS, except for a few minor differences here and there.

Playmore is actually in a bad Catch 22 with it's hardware situation. It does need to move onto new hardware, mainly to stop piracy, but it also needs a solid Cash flow from it's arcade games as well. And that comes from a high install base, which the newer arcade boards don't have.

So they could try going with a new board, but the potential for failure could wipe them out easily. On the other hand, staying with the MVS means more piracy and also the inability to attract a new audience. Right now Playmore is choosing the lesser of 2 evils...

(Though I do wish Playmore would speed up on the Homeports, so it could build the cash up to make a safe run at new hardware..)

Yes. The new Power Instinct is due to be released early in 2003, with SNK vs. Capcom coming late in 2003.

I say they should go with the Naomi, it's already in arcades. I haven't seen any naomi bootlegs yet; also it would be a sinch for them to first port games to the dreamcast(japanese & import market) which the are doing and then port to other home consoles.

Or maybe see how that new Sammy System, ATOMISWAVE, wait and see how the market is accepting that hardware them go put games on that system

Another options is to take a chance on the Crystal System that Breeza Put Out

The triforce and the chihiro, specs wise they are some kick ass systems but i think they are to powerfull for Playmore, unless they decide to go 3D or have 2D games with kick-ass backgrounds and music.

No matter what they do hardware wise, i think that when SNK vs Capcom is released, it should be Playmore's(SNK's) new starting point.

OK here is what I've read on a Japanese BBs and the same was on Neo-geo.com so...

it seems that Shin power instinct and a "maybe" metal slug 5 will be the last MVS game, Playmore seems that they will change their support and the naomi2 or a brand new one will be the next support for: SNK vs Capcom (still in works) KOF 2003, and a rumored MOTW 2.

In fact, I think that all we have to do is to wait the 22-23 feb, cause the AOU show(arcade show) will be, and there I think we'll heard more about that.

Interesting rumor. We'll have to see whether anything comes of it or not, but -like you mentioned- AOU is just around the corner so there's a good chance we'll hear something soon.

Hmm I was thinking the other day, is it possible for a system similiar to Sega's Sonic Lock-on technology feasible for Neo-Geo?

I was thinking wouldn't it be sweet if there were 2 versions of SNK v.s Capcom produced, one could be like a set of fighters with Ryu and Kyo as the main guys, the other set could be Ken and Terry Bogard. Each game would work alone but if you buy two of them and connect them, you can combine rosters so you have two catridges that will allow plenty of fighters without chopping animation or having a few backgrounds.

Or can two catridges in the MVS system work together if programmed to do so?

Yes, they can. League Bowling was able to " link up " with another League Bowling cart.

Also, about SNK vs. Capcom... Beings that a good portion of the programming was done before SNK actually went bankrupt, and it was on the MVS, I have little doubt the game WILL be for the MVS. It has long been rumoured to be in " Double MVS " format, whatever that is. However, it IS rumoured that Playmore is working on a new hardware.
