Just got back from the AMShow.

Yes, Sammy announced together with Capcom that they will be making a "Sammy vs. Capcom". It's only in an announcement stage right now and there seems to be no details planned out by the two companies. Capcom's Funamizu said that he hopes to make the Capcom characters in Guilty Gear quality, so it's most likley that the game will be in 2D.

Another surprize announcement was SNK Playmore's announcement at Sammy's stage that they will be making games for the Atomiswave, and that their ~~first title will be The King Of Fighters 2003~~ let me rewrite that: the ~~next~~ latest KOF will be released on Atomiswave, no title given. Aside from the usual "we'll try to make it better since it's a new platform", there's no details on the game as well.

Edit #4 in under 20 minutes: And the new Guilty Gear game's been officially named as Guilty Gear Isuka. There was a foreign version available as well, so that most likely means.. and I said KOF 2004&3 by mistake, excuse me and my rush.

I changed the BBS subject header. I do remember KOF2003 being scheduled for winter, but this new one is scheduled for spring.. only like 3-4 months of gap between the titles...??

Oh, I can't wait to see what SNK is cooking right now. Imagine later when/if this think works out right and they do other games on the Atomiswave.

I'm gonna go and guess that SNK Playmore will update the site tomorrow and possibly add something about KOF2003. Hopefully I'm right, and it would be great to do that after this announcement.

I guess the rumor of SvC being the last MVS game was the truth. It looks like SNK Playmore is going to abandon the NeoGeo. Damn. (I guess it wasn't the truth, I just remembered Samurai Showdown Zero.)

Whoooooo.....now where's that Garou 2 on Atomiswave announcement at?

Maybe that isn't the case anymore. It'd be interesting to see if they were working on KOF 2003 for Atomiswave after all this time. But if not, I'll look forward to KOF 2004.

Looks like they were flip-flopping between Atomiswave and MVS for KOF 2003, and chose Atomiswave instead.

Coolness.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought the Capcom characters would have a disadvantage vs SNK. I've only played GG a little, but it seems against the Guilty Gear gang they'd have no chance wihtout serious handycapping.

Oh and thanks for the news!

Miniscule KOF2003 rumor:
http://www.planetdreamcast.com/orochinagi/cyberfan/main.htm
"
We are able to get our hands on some inside info about the upcoming sequel to King Of Fighters series. The info is mostly taken from alpha testing reports.
There is a new main character (as K' was in KOF99). However, the character design is neither handsome nor cool. (hope, its not some crazy sh*t like K9999)
So far, Whip, Kyo Kusanagi, Athena and a few other are playable. (Athena, yay!)
Whip and Mai Shiranui are same. (oh well. Whip should at least get one more DM)
Kyo is also pretty much same with his 99-02 outfit.
Athena has been slightly toned down. (so, they did realize she was overpowered)
Some 20+ character portraits have been seen, including Benimaru Nikaido, Leona Heidern. One portrait looks a lot like Jhun Hoon, but his entry is yet to be confirmed. (Jhun! double yay!)
Missing amongst portraits were Angel, K9999 etc. (IMO, its a good move. others opinion may differ)
The gameplay system is quite new. (anything but 01's power system, please!)
No strikers are seen yet.
There will not be any official word or news till November.
Note: The above information is confirmed and verified to our best knowledge. But still, the information is taken from Alpha Tests, which are done at very early stage of development. Don't be surprised if you see Angel or K9999 when game comes out.

Special thanks to Persona for news.

This blew my mind in a totally awesome way. SNK games needed a giant kick in the ass like this, and I only see good things ahead (unless you're a Neo collector).

I think it would be a pretty good idea if SNK made a new AES system based off this hardware, so the Neo-Geo collectors can still get games 100% identical to their arcade counterparts.

He better be in the game or else the series is dead for me. :)

I'm wondering if they were still deciding whether to put 2003 on Atomiswave or MVS, then the quality of 2003 on the Atomiswave would be the same as the MVS unless they can do high resolution sprites with high framerate in less than half a year or whenever they decided to make it for the Atomiswave.

Even if they do their KOF on Atomiswave in 2 years, there's no proof that they will do it Hi-res.
Atomiswave doesn't automatically equals hires... And if they upgrade the graphics, be prepared to play at least one KOF with 20 characters.

Do we actually KNOW that they are going to redraw the sprites? If they only made the decision to change platforms now, that suggests that this is just a quick and dirty MVS port. It kind of worries me and makes me think that KOF2004 might be the revolutionary KOF, while this one will be the one will be a between generations mess.

It IS an odd-numbered KOF after all.

It's possible that the sprites will be reused, but don't blind yourselves. It's also possible this game has been under simultaneous development, hence the short time frame. Still amazed SPONG was right. Well, I guess if you consistently report rumors, one is bound to be right sooner or later.

Moving to a whole new board is quite a step for KoF; asking for news sprites as well may be too much. I like that the rumor mill already states that the game will have a new game engine and a new main character who is neither "handsome or cool." What is that supposed to mean? Is SNK moving away from the Kyo/K'/Iori type characters for the series figureheads?

Better not daydream too much anyway.
In case that's true, though, would that mean that SNK Playmore will stay in NG being this only some kind of spin-off or will they definitely move to Atomiswave for their new games?

And I absolutely can't imagine SF or other Capcom characters fighting against GG ones.

Yeah, the Capcom characters are already set up for that kind of air combo gameplay, but honestly, I'd prefer Sammy vs Capcom to be more down to earth, so to speak. A compromise between Street Fighter and GGX gameplay.

As for KOF, so 2003 will be MVS, for sure? I was finding it hard to believe that it would be otherwise, at this late stage of development.

A new game engine HAS to be written for the Atomiswave because they're using different hardware and it's doubtful that the Atomiswave version of KOF will just be an MVS emulator with a new MVS KOF loaded onto it. Since they have to recode the entire game engine anyway, it's reasonable to assume that they will tweak the gameplay a bit because recoding the entire engine just to make it a carbon copy of the old KOF engine would be a wasted opportunity. It would be like buying a new $1500 computer and loading Windows 3.1 onto it.

Moving to a whole new board is quite a step for KoF; asking for news sprites as well may be too much. I like that the rumor mill already states that the game will have a new game engine and a new main character who is neither "handsome or cool." What is that supposed to mean? Is SNK moving away from the Kyo/K'/Iori type characters for the series figureheads?

Well, hopefully the game will be close to how KOF plays. I'm just hoping it's not KOF meets GGX or anything. I really don't wanna see Terry Bogard doing air dashes and stuff.

I'm looking forward to seeing how the game looks and the music, gotta love the GGX soundtrack, hopefully the soundtrack will be something like that.

Still waiting for a Dan Hibiki and Robert Garcia dream match!

A 100% hard rock soundtrack doesn't float for me, really. But just as long as it isn't anything like the crap put into 2K1....

I seriously doubt she'll be in KOF2k3 at all. She hasn't made the cut for a number of past KOFs and she's in SVC.

The synth GGX soundtrack was kinda bland at best. The live-recorded stuff for the home version, the GGX Heavy Rock tracks stuff... now that's amazing! Really killer guitar work. I think it was performed by a band called Lapis Lazuli, at least, that's what I heard. I love listening to the stuff... but what I've heard of GGXX stuff is kinda synthy too, but not bad... but I haven't played much of it, nor have I heard much, so I don't know...

He gives no sources, and has this total arrogant fanboy way of writing. Plus, he *did* state that KOF 2003 would be on MVS, we all saw that. Now here he is saying "see? Atomiswave, just like I said."

Ummmmm...if you read the whole thread, you'll note that KOF 3D is a console-only release, thus nothing to do with Atomiswave.

Or maybe that's not in this thread. Hell, I forget.

Anyway, I'm right.

In exactly one year from now, there will be a tread as long as this one, except it will be about "Aah, you remember how KOF rocked before they moved to that stupid hardware?", and it will soon become a huge flamewar between all those who prefer the new KOF to the old ones, and in a matter of weeks, a huge gang war will begin in every major arcade of the world...
(A little like what happens with the Final Fantasy series, with people talking about 8, 9 and 10, and people prefering "old school" games like 7, and people who began the series on SFC laughing their ass at them, and people who began the series on famicom laughing their ass at them, and people who never wasted their time on the series laughing their ass at them).
Damn, I can't wait.

Iggy, t'est un fouteur de merde!!^^
mais bon pour te donner raison, vais commencer tout de suite!!^^

IMO SNK graphic style wasn't Bad, I always likeed them I find them better then other game like GGXX or CvS games for exemple. Well I find the sprite have more "detail" on them...
All I wish to see now (Hear me Mr SNK!!!!)
is a good KOF with GGXX like background, SNK craphic style (KOF style) with SF 3rd stirke sprite size and animation...
Here again GGXX was marvelously animated IMO goodly sure burt SF 3rd was better for me...
Well can't wait to see KOf 2003 1st pics...

They are peerless warriors and world class drinkers all in one!

I never pretended I was not.
But unfortunately, I just noticed I forgot to talk about boobs in my message, and no one will notice my warning and I will stand in the ruin of Civilisation (or at least of my nearest arcade), hiding my face in the sleeves of my kimono a la Kakyô, and saying things like "the future is written" and "is there really no way to change the future?" or even "the last battle of the millenium is about to begin".
Then, hopefully, I will be eaten by a rabid whale.
