My bad but it seems my Samsho buds aren't getting any love on any of the bulletin boards. Especially Genjuro who seems to have faded away into news obscurity. Do they stink right now? What are your impressions? What type of moves do they have any info will be much appreciated.
Genjuro/Shiki/Earthquake info SvC?

earthquake was a bit of a surprise
the "big guy" should have been goro
cos snk side still doesnt have a grappler
weird eh?
shiki,excellent choice
genjuro = genius
that is,
unless they've ripped that ss4 sprite
cos it would look so out of place
that aside,
genjuro is cool as ice and i like him better than haohmaru

shiki seems to have great potential, decent moves... cool look, ability to play a great high/low game, etc. she has a nice teleport, a few dash->slash moves, a flip kick, a dp, a rush super and an ex where she deals damage and gets lots of health back...
earthquake is the fucking man!!! i love this guy, dont know about his potential but otherwise he rocks... sprite is awesome, cool ass moves and fun!! he has a dp (the ground spin, heavy he disappears and reappears in a puff of smoke), hcb + k for an on the spot teleport and the heavy version has his galford style dropping from the sky. hcb+p is firebreath... fb in the air with punch is the spin from the air. he also has a slow to come out but very slow moving and seemingly useful fart fireball with fb+punch. fbx2+punch super is an uppercut slash to spinning chain and fbx2+k is a rolento style chain haul with the enemy exploding near the top of the screen...
genjuro has a samsho style setup with abc being lmh slash and d being kick (mainly heavies from sam4). he has his dp, fireball, three slash move (fb+p) and his card super. his exceed seems to be a sam4 rage bar break style death slash... not sure of the damage coz i havent seen it hit.. he seems a solid character and looks great...

I was thinking MR.BIG would have been a good rival for Vega aka M.Bison
I don't like Earthquake in it because if he has been redrawn,which I doubt..he should have been redrawn to resemble his new illustration.
Genjuro is definitely a welcomed addition as oppossed to Haomaru..Ukyo would have been a nice choice as well.

it looks consistent i think... i would say it is new but i can never really tell. the texture and coloring of the sprite have definitely been changed to make him look kof though...

I probably am one of the most excited about Earthquake. He has been a fave of mine since the first time I played the first SS.
I was pissed when he wasnt in Cap vs SNK so I'm glad they brought some of the SS chars into the game.

I don't believe Earthquake was redrawn but perhaps an edited sprite..He just resembles his old incarnation too much whareas Gejuro and Shiki are soo much more advanced looking in their design but we shall see.
I can't wait to use Ms.Todoh<-RIGHT.

believe what you want, i own ss2 and have played svc at least 50+ times... earthquake is a completely new sprite and his moves are all redone.
hold on hold on
i wasnt being "positive"
i was only commenting about the fact they decided to include gen,shiki and quake
the game is still eiji-less,rose-less and ibuki-less
and its engine is basic as hell
my fingers are crossed though...for the sequel
Earthquake is gonna be my first pick (if you saw SRKs "who are you gonna pick first thread"). Beelzebubble is getting me more excited every time he talks about how fun he is to use. Does he still grab the guys face and fart or is it just simply the new projectile? Does his hard slash still have huge distance? What does he say to people (so far i only know what he says to iori)? I just cant wait!

he has that throw too..
his heavies are not really like samsho.. his normals are completely redone and he doesnt have as much range.. prolly good coz they would just lead to him being open all the time... he is faster than samsho 2 also..
what do you mean by fat bound? You mean his super in SS2 where he catches the guy out of the air? If so, yeah i know how to trap into it, but the super itself kinda stinks. His hard slash was more powerful and less punishable.
Or do you mean his fat bounce where he keeps giving the guy repeated but drops from the air? that move is only good for chip damage when the guys energy is low.
Good stuff. Im glad hes faster. He seems to have alot of good new moves that will help him pressure and annoy people. I can just picture using this big tub of lard now. lol hes gonna be the best.

Fat Bound is the 2nd move you're describing. His super was Earth Goddamn. I'm looking forward to Earthquake, too.
