Hello, I have a question about the EX/Shadow characters in RBFFS. I hope this is the correct forum to post this in. This is Neogeo related, so I think this is correct. This is gameplay/code related though, but also it is a character portrait request, so this forum seems the best I guess.

In the Neogeo home version of Real Bout Fatal Fury Special, I have read on many FAQs that there are EX/Shadow versions of some of the characters (Billy Kane, Blue Mary, etc.) However, I can't seem to do the code, and I might be misunderstanding it.

The code is supposedely:

Select a character (like Billy Kane), press and hold the start button (keep it held down), press B,B,C,C, and then press and hold B (keep it held down). Then press and hold C (keep it held down) and then press A or D to select the character.

Are there any other requirements I must fulfill before this code will work? Like do I have to unlock Geese first or something? Is there a specific timing?

I might just have to buy the import Sega Saturn version, because the code seems easier to do (just press and hold two buttons and then select the character).

Oh, but mostly I would just like to see the portraits of the EX/Shadow characters. I've read that Billy has no pupils and has stitches across his face, while Blue Mary has a wicked smile. There was once a sprite rip site that had them (because I remember the smiling Mary one, but unfortunately I never looked for Billy or the others) but it seems to be gone now.

Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: Now that I look at the other forums, maybe this post should have gone in the 24-Bit forum. Sorry for any inconvenience.

I think you have to hold select as well.And if you trie it on the Neo Geo CD it won't work,as much as I know they have taken out there the ex versions

after you do the code (spd from right anticlockwise to right then down right, A, B, C.) you can just choose by holding B+C then pressing A or D for collor of chara.

Oh...So must I beat Geese and enter that one code on the Ranking Screen before I can do the EX character code?

normal not.It should work whitout the Geese Code. This way it works on my Neo Geo Home system whitout problems.

If I remeber right you shouldn't enter the code too fast for the ex chars.

press and hold start then press b,b,c,c, the press B down and wait some secs (3-4 secs)keep on holding B then press and hold C and wait there some secs as well. Then press A or D to get a ex char.
maybe you enter the code too fast,or so

GOOD LUCK :buttrock:
