SS0 Question

Will this game come out on a proper MVS cart, or they`ll do like 'SNK vs Capcom' with the integrated motherboard?

Thanks!

There will be an MVS version of SNK vs Capcom, unless I've missed out on the news totally. Most likely SS0 will have the same birth, JAMMA boards as the first few factory shipments and later MVS carts.


(Long time no see btw, I'm *kuma from efnet #neogeo, ages since last visit)

Why this new policy may I ask? To cater for arcades who dont have an MVS board? Wouldnt it be simpler to include an MVS with the cart, rather than do a combined piece of equipment?

No official words from what I've read so far.

Either new'ish hardware and/or anti-bootleg, could be a way to try to enter new markets that dont have MVS units as well.

SNK initially claimed it as an anti-bootleg tactic, but I believe it has become apparent that it is a marketing technique to not only cater to non-MVS arcades, but to manipulate arcade operators into not noticing that it is developed for use with "old" hardware/technology. In other words, I don't think that there are many people who would buy a PS2 game if they found out that it was originally a canned release for the PS1. It's just that not too many people have the "neo" mind-set when it comes to gaming.
