Which one is better? King of the Fighters Neo Blood EX for Gameboy Advanced or the KOF R1 and R2 games on Pocket color?

well owning both R2 for the Pocket and Neo Blood ex for the Gameboy advanced I will say I enjoy R2 better.

Maybe I am a bit biased, However in Playing the GBA version all I would notice is missing frames here, the timing and button differences, also how easy it was to get through. It looks a lot better graphicaly but with the missing frames and lack of Gameplay I still like R2 better. R@ seems more like a handheld fighter. Neo Blood seems like they were trying to crame KOF 99 on a handheld and were unable to.

I will say though the Special edition GBA is pretty cool. not that it is anything other then a black GBA with KOF graphics. But it is cool being a Neo Geo/SNK Fan to own.

I sort of agree with both of you... i love R2, it rules, but it takes a long time to get used to playing with the mini-stick and 2 buttons. Plus the tiny graphics can sometimes make you squint.

As for Neoblood- i think its a great game, just not on 1P. Bruno- have you tried playing it on linkup? I think it's loads better that way.

Testaroto's right...KoF-EX doesn't even come close to KoF-R2 :D

I'm a big KoF'97 fan but I don't like KoF-R1...it's way too fast.

I haven't played R-1, but R-2 is superior. The GBA button configuration is poor for fighters, and it doesn't ship with a joystick as the NGP does.
