Is pro really that much different?

Should I even bother with getting pro for cheap, or should I just wait? What's better about pro besides the two new chars?

Also, has Joe got all of his moves, or was he screwed? Also, is there an EX version of him? Thanks!

The changes are minimal. Pretty much the addition of Joe and Dan.

there are little changes on PRO.first of all the most noticable are the 2 new fighters,joe and dan.there are no EX versions of them.scondly,all the secrets are unlocked from start.thirdly,there are some tweaks in the gameplay area,for example the ratio 1 fighters are significantly weaker than before and the ratio 3 are stronger.some EX fighters like rugal have improved.kyo's orochinagi is now faster and his EX version rox.forthly,this is not very noticable-there are now more frames of animation added to every fighter and they now don't look as pixelly as the original game.the graphics now have more textures to them,again this is not very noticable unless you are an eye candy junkie like me.to sum it up,PRO has very little changes from the original,but its still worth picking if you are interested.oh,and i forgot to mention shin akuma is in the game.i'm not too sure if he is selectable.

Heres the bottom line.

If you hated the first CAPvsSNK, you'll hate pro.

Also Dan and Joe seem unfinished in pro, they were probly thrown in the game to warrent releasing the "Pro" version (You know capcom).

My advice wait for CAPvsSNK 2.

If you're an adept player at Capcom VS. SNK, you'll instantly notice the differences in the gameplay of your favorite characters. Is the game MASSIVELY different? No. But it's different enough that me and my 'crew' prefer it's faster and tweaked play over the first one. It's been a good tideover while waiting for CvS2. And while Joe seems 'unfinished' in this version (he's missing LOTS of moves), his moves have pretty good priority on them and I do very well with him. Dan, on the other hand, seemes COMPLETE except for some choppy neutral stance animations. But I think he sucks <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">.

capcom made dan look like a retard.he looks fierce and his face definetly looks ugly and his fighting stance looks horriblee when compaed to his alpha 3 sprite.

Joe has 3 moves... thats it, and we all know how dan is, this game is ok if you havent played or have the original, only reason I bought it cause I am a huge fighting game collector

Joe has MAD fucking priority!!!
Dan just sucks (in this game)
MOST SNK's have been sped up or made better (except Nak who was slowed down a bit)
MOST CAP's have been left alone or toned down (except Normal Vega/Balrog *claw guy* who was SPED UP of all thing and he is now THE best CAP!!! *if not the best in the whole game!*)

orochi iori...man, he is barely faster then normal iori now.....how stupid...damn capcom.....and as far as i know, ryu's shinshoryuken is still the CHEAPEST super in the game...however, one thing happened, i didnt believe it when i read it, so i tried it...

i fought against geese with ryu...ai is better btw....but i got in close, was going to hammer him with the shinshoryuken because he was beating my ass.....he high countered it!!!!!!! O_O...needless to say, i sat the controller down and watched geese beat the hell out of ryu after that.....geese can counter ANY physical attack...and i mean ANY....scarey....
