Changes: Super Fighters S

Revision as of 11:07, 25 June 2015

Super Fighters S, re-released as Super Fighters 99 is a unlicensed entry of the King of Fighters series, mostly based on Takara's KoF Game Boy ports while taking its character roster from the official King of Fighters '97.

Gameplay

A few things are unusual about this unlicensed KoF game.

First is that it is a unlicensed game that comes with a border when played on a SNES Super Game Boy. This is very uncommon with unlicensed titles or even rockman z by the same company.

The second thing of note is that unlike the official KoF Game Boy games, that the characters are actually set up into teams instead of having random characters from all the teams. The only ones not set to teams are Iori and Shingo, who did not have teams in KoF '97.

While many of the characters are taken from the previous official KoF ports done by Takara, several of them are new sprite sets that were designed specifically for this game and do not appear in any official GB ports. Some of them may be taken from the KoF NGP ports, but more detailed analysis would be required to verify this.

The gameplay engine is based in Takara's original engine used in their official King of Fighters ports, so the gameplay is very well done to be based on the GB hardware. All gameplay aspects including team/single options and the actual fighting engine is the same as those found in Takara's originals, with the exception of link play, which was removed.

Trivia

The teams included are:

The Hero team, Kyo, Benimaru, and Goro.

The Kyokugen team, Ryo, Robert, and Yuri.
