Man, they had an office in Osaka!? I should have visited it while I was there.

On a side note, I did see the old SNK corporate headquarters in Osaka right across the street from NeoGeoLand. It was pretty cool, so I took a couple pics of it. Maybe one day I'll scan 'em and post them here.

Chances are that the person who built the new webpage is not a translator, so the English section will not return until it is updated by someone else.

Is this the first time that all of these dates have been listed by Playmore themselves? Nice to see them confirmed, either way...

ザ・キング・オブ・ファイターズ2000 2002.11.28発売 6,800円
ザ・キング・オブ・ファイターズ2002 2002.12.19発売 39,800円
ザ・キング・オブ・ファイターズ2001 2002.12.26発売 5,800円

Edit: = 2000 for PS2, then 2002 for Neo, then 2001 for DC

Can anyone else see the penis on K's chest on the main page, with him standing across from Kula?

Subliminal messages, eh.

It's okay. We're open minded. You're with friends.

Neither, it's artsy stuff. The use of the phallic symbol increases the suggested sexual content. So when you notice this, you can make more assumptions about the entire picture (with both K' and Kula) than you would be able to otherwise.

Kula's facial expression helps this along as well. ;)

Perhaps they removed the english page 'cause now that snk neo geo usa is up (their phone number is on the kof2002 poster) they'll ask them to do their own english page.

Sounds sweet! Looks like I'll be having a merry Christmas and a happy New Year once I get home.

Evilwasabi: Thanks alot! You just talked me out of getting a King of Fighters K' x Kula doujinshi. J/K! Alas, King of Fighters cover art nowadays just isn't the same without Shinkirou (what I wouldn't give to see a new King of Fighters piece done by him).
