What do you guys think about this game? I just got the Saturn version and that's a bad case of slowdown plague.... but luckily it's still playable.

I don't like how Rai looks though... I dunno why.... and Marurun (sp?) reminds me of a Darkstalkers character.

Dandy J is cool though. Love his whip move which can be maxed out for a 10 hit combo. Good fighting game.

If you are asking about the Neo version, it is a fantastic title. There is no slowdown that I am aware of and it has some of the best music of any Neo Geo game ever. The animation is also wonderful. Personally, I like using Maru, the Totoro looking guy, and Rai, because I am lazy and I can play him like a Shotoscrub.

Really, all of the characters are fun,which is rare, and I can't point to a bad one. Great game and a great buy as an MVS cart. The Home Cart is pretty spendy, as, I think, it was Japanese only and thus harder to find.

It's a fun game, but I dun have much time to try it out on arcades, and the controllers is sucky. My personal fave is Slash, though he's a pretty conventional character. Try the other characters and see the wackiness.

I absolutely love this game! I really wish Sunsoft released the home version here in the states or had at least done more with the property, maybe it would have gotten more of the attention it deserved.

My personal fave is Arina, but I have to agree there isn't a bad one in the cast. Fernandez, especially, is one of the most memorble bosses in fighting game history, simply because he's so over the top. Once I finally get an MVS, this will be the first game I look to pick up.

I must be crazy... I'm trying to write the entire KOF Orochi saga as a fanfic...

Home... or if I can.. homie.... heh heh... I got it on eBay for a grand whooping...

43 smackaroos. It's from Yamotaku or something like that... he's from Japan and from what I hear.... Waku Waku 7 on the Saturn is EXTREMELY rare.

This guy wants to buy it off me.... I dunno if I should do it....

Waku Waku 7 is my absoulute favorite game to the Neo Geo! I like Rai best. Mauru and Politank-Z are also close favorites. There is a review of the game on this site. Just click on the "Reviews" and read it!!

Get it on MVS, though. No slowdowns, no loading times, just fast and intense action with lot of humor in it! A masterpiece!!

Continuing my like for the weird characters, my favorite character is Reese, the robotic maid. And my friends all get a kick out of the Bonus Kun... they think it's a great parody to Ryu.

I have a converted cart for the Neo Geo. I paid about $180 for it, and it's definitely a title I will play a lot of.

i've got it on saturn

its way cool.. but gets boring quick if i dun have ppl playing with me (then again, thats the same to all fighting games)

i like Arina best, her combos are soo easy to perform and is wildly damaging

Rai and Slash and bonuskun are close favs (how would u feel getting beaten up by a beanbag? )

It's a very good game and It's bizzareness can be closely compared to JoJo's Bizzare Adventure (in which, Waku Waku 7 came before it). I like playing with Rai.. kinda Jin Saotome + Batsu (in his looks) & BonusKun.... what a laugh!

, a sweet parody of Ryu. But Fernandez freaks me out! Just look at his second win pose.... he's damn ugly!!! But, overall, a worthy game to purchase .
