You got a tracking number from them? Did you have to ask for it, or did they email you?

I guess I'm in the club too. Go to ncs' website and click on "you and your order" to get the tracking #. I just got my copy about twenty minutes ago. :)

Edited because I'm a retard that can't spell.

Well, I got mine and have been playing for the past hour. Keep in mind I'm a huge kof fan. Here's my opinion so far:

Backgrounds? Wow do they stink. I'm not fond of the backgrounds at all this year. Also, the music isn't terrible, but it's nothing to scream about this year either. The new characters are cool, but seem very different than what I'm used to. This is good news, since I would have to have the same old same old. The game seems very VERY combo oriented. I'm not sure that's a good thing. I was wipping out huge combos by almost accident with the three striker rule. That's one thing I do enjoy, and gives it a ton of depth, is the fact that you can do one person and three strikers all the way up to four people and none.

One thing I knew about, and am not pleased with, is how they changed the heads on a few of the characters. Such as Iori and Vanessa. They changed them in their normal stance, but when you walk or attack, it goes back to the normal way. WOW is that dumb. I mean, the continuity is shot because of this. Vanessa's hair is almost pure red, and when she starts to walk or attack, turns back to the 2000 way (with dark parts and more detailed). Same thing with Iori, he looks pretty cool with the new head, until you start to walk forward. If they were going to change the art, WHY didn't they change all of it?

I'm just very critical of KOF, since I love the series so much. It's very VERY deep, this much is for sure, but right now I'm saying it's no kof98. Well, back to playing!

I'll tell you what, K9999 is just as cool as I thought he'd be. Man, this game gives me the feeling that you can't teach old dogs new tricks, since a lot of the moves I used to be able to do have changed (combos and so on). Seth isn't nearly as deadly for me since many of his combos have changed, and he now has three counters instead of two (making the air attacks and standing attacks two different reversals now).

Still, very good game, but tough. So many characters.

Oh, one more thing, they redid a LOT of voices. The clearest voices ever in a neo geo game yet. They are VERY clear. Kyo sounds like he's getting evil in this one... very deep voice.

Well, I just got the game in the mail 10 minutes ago. Damn, it was a bitch to get it out of the package. I guess i'm gonna see if it's good or not.

Holy crap is this game awesome! Graphics are very clean (is this really 12 year old hardware!?!) and the controls are excellent. This one may become my fav fighter on the Neo, of course I need to put some more time into to it to decide that. What do you guys think of the new voices (for Kyo, etc)? They're deeper sounding, but I guess I've kind of gotten used to the old sounds. I so glad I came back to my Neo! The next gen systems are crap (and I own them all). Poor, but happy :) .

I got mine a couple of hours ago, and yes the half assed redraws of Iori and Vanessa do suck.

I'm taking a wait-and-see approach to this one..

Spike, you'll have to bring this to the next MN GT so we can all try it out!

Is this club exclusive to JPN owners cause I can always start a KOF 01 US owner club. Hopefully mine will come next week. I'm glad to hear this game came out good. Thanks for letting me know. Now I REALLY want this game, who cares about half done redraws, I can easily avoid that! <img src="graemlins/drool2.gif" border="0" alt="[Drool 2]" />
