yes thats it,saw it right now.Gai a guy like joe is in the game,but he is from an strange 3d game that is not well know,at least he is a striker from kof 2000...
Now the question will he be a normal playable character or a mid boss?I hate bosses because you dont play with them,just hope this isn't the case...

One thing:now we can hope that the boomerang guy from Kizuna encounter will really be in the game

if he's not playable in the arcade version, he'll be playable in the port

I hope he's not a playable boss, overpowered characters take the fun out of the game

edit: on second thought I doubt I'll be playing this game in the arcade

Awesome. Nice to see oddities once in a while. I'm not a huge fan of his, but his 2000 striker was a decent novelty.

Actually I would be suprised. Its seems like lately SNK doesn't want to put old school SNK characters in KOF(which was the point of the series), they'd rather make all of these new fuckin anime influenced metrosexual overly cute bastards in KOF instead.

I'm EXTREMELY suprised.

Well, looks like KoF XI is the exception to that rule as classic SNK chars like Duck King and Eiji are already in that game. We could even count the Garou ones in 03 and XI too. Not to mention the shitload of that classic chars in NGBC (which isn't KOF but you get the idea).

Gai from Buriki One is a nice choice IMO, it's not the first time a 3D chara gets adjusted to a 2D environment, just think of Shiki from Samurai Shodown 64 who appeared in SvC Chaos.

A nice addition to the roster. I wonder what team he'll be on or if he will be getting his own.

It'd be nice to get a whole Buriki Team, maybe Gai, Rob, and Takato. That would be sweet.

same here!

"IT'S TIME TO DRINK FROM THE FIREHOSE!!!"

but my fave is "Conan the Librairian(bad sp)" ...when he's about to slice the "guy returning his books late" in half, he makes this funny sound that you just have to hear (if anyone can find a way to rip just that sound, i will love you forever.)

"DON'T YOU KNOW THE 'DUEY DECIMAL SYSTEM'!?"

Just FYI, WakuWaku7 it's from Sunsoft, not SNK.

Read earlier in the thread, we were talking about the movie "UHF" an old film starring Weird Al Yankovic.

Sorry, partially my fault for derailing it ;)

Hayato and Jill in the Capcom vs series are the first ones I know of. Shiki came much later.

ANYTHING added to this game is welcomed by me. I really really want Atomiswave hardware. :annoyed:
