Thing is, Wes is a huge FFS nut, that game is his cotton candy from our history together as players, I'd say that game was un-toppable for him as a neo-geo title, its like the SSF2X of the neo-geo, and its one of the my top 3 favorite fighting games of all time also. That spot isn't easily had, and the other two games are capcom titles, alpha 2 and 3S.
After 1995 truly ended, it was the major end of the truly classic style neo-geo titles.
I still consider Samurai III the best SS ever, a thought many would largely disagree with, and RBFF was an amazing game at good levels of play. That game has such fantastic replay, its unreal really. I'd love to play that game with others and put up match videos, because it is one title I could become ridiculously destructive in due to it being different then any other fighter. It is one of a chosen few games where footsies aren't king, and I still love it. Its also way damn better then RBS by a mile, and actually more fun then the masterpiece that is RBFF2.
BTW, anyone who likes sengoku 3 I cannot see why, that game is unfun, repetitive, and the enemies are shit in it. I found semi infinite juggle loops playing that game for the first time. After beating that shit, I can never do it again.
Sengoku 3 is a stinking pile of diatribe style horse manure and I could never like that game. The enemies are just unfun to fight in it also, not even due to difficulty. Those frogs for instance. I can't even begin to describe what a pile that game is, especially in terms of replayability. Its a game best played if you only have that one game and have a pointless one cc goal.
