Its all about personal preference, I think the scales are fairly balanced. Both companys have made the same genre of games for years. I'll die having to pick and choose.

Not really... KOF is the most popular arcade game in Asia.

In HongKong/Singapore, KOF is everywhere... not just one machine, but five to ten machines per arcade. In Korea, I think Capcom is dead; people only play Tekken/KOF. Probably the only Asian country with people playing Capcom games is Japan.

I think Brazil and Mexico have a lot more KOF players as well.

Me, I just love KOF... that doesn't mean I like SNK more.

They are both cool.

But wouldn't it be cool if this thread ended with Noble Shawn defeating Evil Dion with the Shawn Geyser. And then Dion would fall off the roof of his apartment complex.

I always hear about SNK having the worlds most popular arcade games. Its funny seeing who the real underdog is, even though Capcom makes more money.

To each, their own.

To me its Capcom. I've grown up with Capcom. Its not just for fighting games, but all the games they've made in the past that I grew up with. From games like Chip & Dales Rescue Rangers on the NES to Marvel vs Capcom on the Dreamcast, Capcom has always been there.

SNK has released very few games over here. I have rarely seen any KOF or Fatal Fury game being sold on shelves, and Samurai Shodown 2 was no where to be found at all. Only since I bought my Dreamcast have I finally gotten around to playing some quality SNK games.

Seriously, it's a tie... I grew up with Capcom and SNK... be it King of the Monsters or Street Fighter II... a lot of my gaming memories are thanks to those 2, or 3 companies.

For me its Capcom, The last official Snk release we got over here was Kof 95 for Saturn, and by that time Kof 97 was out! Capcom have released all of their games over here and I have grown up with them because of it! I'm still a massive Snk fan though, and still try to put a few coins in any I see.... although I don't see very many nowadays....

I'm neutral in this but I can say that Capcom is the leader in Sydney(one arcade still has SF2 WW,XvSF plus 2 MvC2s and CvS compared to 3 KOF2000 which has bad controls)

It depends on what you mean by quality. SNK has terrible programmers, to the extent were there are MAJOR glitches/bugs in KOF every year, some of which never get removed year after year. The same goes for a lot of character specific infinites.

If you mean quality in the sense that SNK tries very much to be original when it comes to the newer fighters that come out, then yes, you could say that.

Hehehe, i simply never understood how SNK could be so popular world wide when Capcom has always been on top when it comes sales. It makes little sense.

Tough to say. I'll have to join the few neutral BB members and say both. SNK and Capcom have made fighting game sereis I love (KOF and Vampire) while also making fighters that easily work my nerves as well (RBFF2 and SF2 Turbo Hyper Fighting).

Capcom all the way. Simply because they have been there with every game system I have ever owned. The Neo-Geo is my second favorite system in my collection, second only to my Sega Dreamcast. With my Super NES Capcom made dozens of games for me to have fun with. With my Sega Saturn SNK made KOF 95 for me to have fun with, but Capcom made several more games as well so I had ended up having more Capcom games for that system. Then with my Sega Dreamcast, I bought Capcom vs SNK because, well it is awesome. But I also bought Marvel vs Capcom, SF3 Alpha, SF3 Double Impact... the recurring theme here is that Capcom has always had the game to suit my needs. Plus they are much cheaper than the SNK offerings for my Neo-Geo cart system, so I just never had the cash to stock up on SNK games like I did with Capcom.

Difficult call. In the end I'd go with SNK. They were years ahead of there time with games like Fatal Fury. Having the ability to move to different planes was never seen till SNK invented it. Also there series are more varied than capcoms. Not to say capcom doesn't make great games cause I love my POWERSTONE!!!

Aw right. Now when ya look at my name and av.. you might think that I'm a big Capcom fan. But in matter of fact, SNK is just as good as Capcom. They have a lot of great games like KOF, Real Bout, MoTW, Last Blade & The Samurai Shodown games. Capcom did also impress me with games like SF & Darkstalkers (and the one and only, Rival Schools. In which I AM THE STAR!!! :D). Anyway.. both are 2 great companies with great franchise characters and cool gameplay. I can't wait to make my apperance in CvS2!!! Boy, you sure are lucky, Kyosuke.....

I like SNK more, but not by much.

If SNK's a 10, Capcom's a 9.999999999999 ad infinitum.

So there's my choice :).

Sheah right. Fortunately for everyone it's exactly the other way around for Crapcom games, right Kamui? I mean, titles like XvsSF or MvC1 or MvC2 never EVER have been plagued by such things as glitches and infinities, hey?

LMAO!

Gee those SNK d00ds must be sorta stoopid. Why haven't they recycled FF2 into a millon of different versions just like Crapcom did with SF2 instead?

Prozerg, I don't mind people putting small background music to sometimes add to the mood, but did you really need to add a 1.3 MB song to this post? Not everyone has Cable or ISDN...including me. >_<;;

UNFORTUNATELY THAT IS TRUE.......CAPCOM SEEMS TO BE DOING BETTER HERE.......


IN SOME PLACES.......
IT SEEMS IN GALAXY (THEY HAVE 1/4 DECENT STIX AS OPPOSED TO THE COMPETITION NEXT TO AND ACCROSS THE ROAD FROM) ON THEIR SNK GAMES THEY HAVE NORMALLY A NICE CROWD.....
STILL 1/4 DECENT CONTROLS ARE PATHETIC, CAN YOU BLAME PLAYERS NOT PLAYIGN MUCH?, BUT I NEVER SEE BOTH KOFS ('98 AND '00) EMPTY........


AND SNK GAMES ARE USUALLY FEATURED ON THE BIG SCREEN MACHINES ON LEVEL ONE WHEN THEYRE NEW.......I HAVENT SEEN A CAPCOM GAME THERE FOR A WHILE (I HAVENT BEEN THERE FOR A WHILE THOW* <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">


AND I RECALL WHEN MOTW GOT BROUGHT OVER, I GOT LIKE 3 GAMES BEFORE THEY REMOVED IT........BUT IT WAS BUSY AS HELL......


MABY I JUST APPEAR WHEN THERES A CROWD.....


OR THEY FOLLOW ME...... <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">

AND SNK IS THE BESTEST, I VOTE CAPCOM GETS KICKED OFF THE DEVELOPMENT OF SVC2!**

The difference bieng that its expected in the VS series becuase of the engine they run on, some infinites like the nearly impossible to land rejump corner versions cant be fixed becuase of the engine. I think it would also be impossible to remove every glitch from the game considering that the engine is so lose theres a new glitch found everyday. SNK could easily eliminate close every bug/glitch/infinite from the game putting up a few limits.

Im no troller, i actually like SNK games <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">
