Good looking (like the first one), but really playable? I heard that first was shit. And what about the right chara in the fist photo? Who is it?

KOF EX for the Game Boy Advance was pure ASS, I don't care how the game looked. The first played like shit and if the developer (Artoon) is doing this one then they can just forget getting my money right now.

There is a saying: Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. I'm not about to get conned out of money twice on this crap. <img src="graemlins/veryangry.gif" border="0" alt="[Very Angry]" />

The good thing about the past, is that you can learn from it.
Lets hope that Artoon do this.

I've played the first one, not very good at all. It looked great, yeah, but played like LoSJ. Control all fucked up. And what did they do? Put Geese in it. I like Geese and all, but way to fuck up a storyline, Artoon.

Now that you mention it she does look like Chizuru, wonder if it's good or bad though.

Damn it!!!!!!!!!!! I can't stand Chizaru!!!! I hope she's not as sucky as her mother if she is a playable character. Could they have just stuck her in cause she's this games Bao???

The lesson is that KOF belongs on the NGPC not the GBA. :rolleyes:

I would say the lesson is that they should build a portable GBA KOF from the ground up, rather then trying to port it from the Neo.

Damn you SNK/Playmore, why did you have to be such a TEASE on KOF R-3???

Anyway....I think KoF CAN be done well on the GBA, it just can't be done well on the GBA by those MORONS at Artoon. <img src="graemlins/veryangry.gif" border="0" alt="[Very Angry]" />

moe sucks!!!

king of fighters ex was a big letdown as well.
quite possiby the most unplayable link up mode i've ever (played?), it's just sucked.

what's with these crappy 'blood' names as well?

and that guy on the end of the first pic looks like MOTW Terry + MOTW Rock + Stir a bit = unimaginative character.

Very ass translation via babelfish (take your own conclusions ... :D ):

"The マーベラスエンターテイメント sells January 1st of 2003 (schedule), 2d grapple action " the THE KING OF FIGHTERS EX2 for the GBA - HOWLING BLOOD - ". Capital, terry, water caltrop, Athena! Again, the アツ it is with the GBA and unfolds fight!


With the same work the original story was prepared. While " the KOF " invitation of sender obscurity reaches again in the grapple house which scatters in the every place, feeling disquieting wave motion, the weasel づ る requests KOF participation at the capital and the 萌. On one hand, also marry and the 怒 team which chase another incident had held the inactivity in the KOF......, with those which are said.

This time 6 teams or more participates. With " story mode " and so on, team opposition in 3 human 1 teams develops. Like the 萌 of the previous production, also appearance of the オリジナルキャラ is made clear. You say the play impression and the movement of the キャラ which, are approached to ネオジオ edition with the GBA are reproduced.


Is not score and technique level is measured, the " judge system " and every aforementioned team and skill is possible the original story in the team of combination of the キャラ of specification, the " multiple ending " et cetera were prepared.


Of course also the opposition by the communication cable actualizes! It follows to the previous production and release is done in New Year's Day, the アツ with the palm it was and was expected to the battle and! "

I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw this.

Sorry guys but the 1st KoF on GBA was a POS title. It didn't have anything remotly worthy to have the KoF name on it.
