the extra characters must be when they were planning on making XII complete the Ash Saga, but after 4 years and needing more time to finish the rest, they knew they needed to start making money before they were forced to layoff employees, so they made KOFXII into a dream match with the ones they had done already.
even if KOFXII gets character DLC, don't expect all of these listed to be added as DLC, because of course they want to give KOFXIII(13) characters KOFXII didn't have, and of course DarkAsh proves that's one of the bosses for the final chapter of the saga. so things like that will be saved for KOFXIII.
but I'm impressed with the data. this proves they intended Takuma to return as part of the AOF team.
and Yuri would reunite with Mai and King to form the Women's team again.
and Vice is alive as well. and it seems they planned to add 98 version of Iori to the game, but yeah, the rest of the characters were a tad too ambitious with the time it takes to finish these sprites. but which ones will be DLC and which ones are saved for KOFXIII are anyone's guess.
also
.data:827B06F0 .long aBadAllocation # "bad allocation" 7 lines hint that there were at least 7 other characters planned to be added as well (K', Kula, Maxima, Blue Mary, Ramon, Vanessa and one other...Adelheid?)
but like I said, there wasn't time and money to add everyone after 4 years (normally a game like Elder Scrolls IV takes 4 years to develop. which shows how much work was put into the KOFXII sprites, considering KOF used to be released every year since sprites were simpler and easier back then.)
Based on the layout of the list, it seems in KOFXIII, Elisabeth will be the leader of the new Hero Team, and Ash is on his own (like Iori was in KOF97.)
also Dark Ash hints at his true form (we knew he was hiding something since his eyes changed during KOF2003 intro.)
also I speculate "boss_chara" will be the leader of Those from the Past, or maybe Botan
(unless she is killed or survives past this story arc and gets involved in the upcoming Dragon
arc with Ron.)
some speculate "hwa" is Hwa Jai from Fatal Fury. And some think Hwa is a coded name meaning
Howard. either Geese Howard or Rock Howard.
This doesn't mean all other characters listed will be added as DLC, I mean we have even yet to see how many buy the first characters they will put up as DLC.
but at least this gives us a glimpse of what KOFXIII will include.
