Dream or Nightmere? Geese is Back!




1- " I've Been Waiting For You! "

Geese Howard is Back as a hidden character. In order to fight him, the followings must be done:

1- The player must finish off the game up to Krauser with No Losses.
2- The player must score ranke over Masters by the time Krauser is defeated.

If the two conditions set above are fulfilled, the player should see a screen with the words "Nightmere" instead of the usual "congratulations" screen, and fight with Geese. His background music is an arranged version from FFS as well.


HOW TO USE GEESE

Unfortunately Geese is only usable in the home versions. The command to using Geese will be shown after the endings once he is beaten, but for those of you who don't have the skills, it is Left, UpLeft, Up, UpRight, Right, DownRight, Down, DownLeft, Left, DownLeft + ABC in the "Top Scores" screen.
Owners of the home versions can use him as a normal palyer in both VS mode and normal mode, in which he actually has his own ending (and an extra skit).


So Why Is Geese Alive?

To make the long story short, he isn't. Geese died at the end for Real Bout Fatal Fury, and thus the Geese in RBS is only a dream match, or a nightmere that the player character is having. That is why Geese always has ghastly energy around him during his whole fight, and also why he tends to disappear and reappear in a distance sometimes. In fact his alternate / 2P color turns him into into a look that backs up his death...






Hidden EX Characters

In RBS, there is a way to get a "Shadow" version of certain characters. So far only 4 have been confirmed, and in most cases the characters become masocists or Sadistic. Just looking at their faces in the victory screen tells the whole story. (Look in the "Author's Note" section for more details.)

The characters who can be "EX" ed:

Andy
Has old moves from RBFF, has a smile on his face and isn't a Goody-goodie anymore.

Billy
Plays similar to Billy in RBFF, same moves including SDM & Counters. He has no pupils, he has stitches on the side of his face, he calls himself (VS) Geese's dog, and he finds himself similar to Yamazaki.

Mary
Plays similar to Mary in FF3 except for her DM. Looks wicked and talks evil, like the way the 2P color Nakokruru usually does. Likes beating up Terry to hear his screams.

Tung
Plays similar to Tung in FFS.

How to get EX Characters
To get the "EX" version of a character, go to the character select screen and do the following:

1- Put the cursor on one of the four characters.

2- Hold on the Start button. Never let go of it.

3- Press B, B, C, C

4- Hold on the B button. Never let go of it, just like the Start Button.

5- Wait for at least half a second and hold on the C button. Never let it go of it, like the Start and B button.

6- Finally, Press A or D, depending on the color you want (1P or 2P).

7- Voila, you got the "EX" character. You can now let go of the 3 buttons.
