LOL, yes the Evil JHendrix!

I'm just really interested in what all this commotion is about. I'll definitely stay tuned.

In all honestly it's probably nothing we haven't known for a few months. It will be nice to see something in print though and end all this stupid speculation.

Sammy is a shit company who got luck from Guilty Gear. A series nobody cared about until they saw the graphics of X, now all of a sudden, the company is as big as microsoft.

I pray Sammy and all its releases fail cold turkey.

its okay,
the SEGA curse will be passed on to them.
why in the world would an arcade company buy up SEGA.
to add to their IPs and cut out the competition.
they basically have a naomi frankenstein that they call atomiswave
and they buy out the company at no small feat that is their only
competitors arcade wise.
makes sense i suppose SNK routing to them.
who knows. it may even work out right.
but personally i m not to excited about it.

Could it be the blessing of all blessings?

SKNP has decided to buy out Sammy and dissolve the company? I seriously hate Sammy.

Of course its going to be something retarded regarding Atomiswave.

why even dev for atomiswave?

wouldn't it be better to design for system 246 if you want to do 3d, so you can do a straight ps2 port?

ugh, I hate this cryptic crap with trieu...just tell us, or don't, don't do this stupid hype it up thing.

Yeah, I also have to admitt that Sammy isn´t a great company.
Ok, they have GG, but besides it´s resolution and the great soundtrack, GG belongs to the series of games which the world does not need after all.
I really do not know one person who actually likes GG in terms of gameplay.

And I am really afraid that IF there should be something announced that we can say good bye to all the great SNKP stuff we had, have and will have :(

But I also have to add that whoever this Trieu guy is, and with all necessary respect, he told quite many things over the last months (from what I have seen in these topics) and nothing has really happened !!!

And it is also more likely that this news might just be something with this pachinko thing.

Fucking Hell. Some of the Sammy characters are cool, but I don't care for them. I had the very first GG for PSX and it sucked. The games are a lot better, but are still missing something. I don't want to see an SvS game.

I remember a stage on a fighting game of their own ( GG ?? ) wich had all the logos of their competitors ( namely arcade ) crushed and shattered all over the place and Sammy was the only good standing one... Names like Saeg, Kanomi, Nomca, SKN, Comcap, etc...

Would be this their wish ? :smirk:

A Sammy logo on the ground, Poppy walking by and doing his business onto the logo !!!

May this be my dream :eek_2:

Atomiswave and Snk....hmmmnnn......are they serious? we will see what will unfold-

Guilty Gear the game itself, is pretty in terms of graphics- but shallow in terms of Characters..... Characters are wayyy over done - IMHO. :spock: They designed characters that have a "CHEEZY Cool " look to themselves almost like Sammy worked so hard at trying to create different cool characters they outdid themselves on this one-

If they create a game with similar gameplay people are used to but outstanding graphics- im definately all for it Hell- this series needs a serious tune up cosmetically (but I know for the majority less is more) I am looking forward to an SNK/P Fighting game on Atomiswave Technology............:D (yet i dont think an Snk VS SAMMY is a good idea right away though)

SNK vs. Sammy?

Hell no, you guys don't realize what this means.

They already secured "Sammy vs. Capcom"

When they buy SNKP, Sammy vs. Capcom becomes SvC2!

It'll be like SNK vs. Capcom with some GGX characters thrown in. Plus all the good graphics/music/etc.

Go Sammy! :buttrock:

Of course this is in the whole "what if" category, till Treiu posts up and we know the truth.

But considering the rumors we've had from multiple sources, I'm very hopeful. ;)

I would be very surprised if sammy did away with the SNk name, it's too well known in arcades.

I could see them however, make SNK a branch of SAMMY, and devote the SAMMY brand to pachinko.

Yea just read the news from Gamespot website and Sammy vs Capcom is a go- also the news about them making King of fighters a great title again- thats evidence enough for me - Finally some sense getting knocked into SNK/P heads- A new facelift for KOF. (lets hope its not a disaster like Michael Jackson's facelift) Hey as long as the Gameplay isnt Fucked up too badly- and too hopefully they will keep around the Snk name when they annouce the title.................(the Majority of Snk Hardcore will not be too happy and will hope for failure but oh well)......the inevitable looks like its finally taking place- a step towards the future of 2d fighting.
