Samurai Sprit IV official poster ?

[greatfunky]

Hi guys!

I'm seeking informations about that poster .
I acquired it around 2004 if memory serves me well , from an ebay seller , in compensation for a return shipping cost of a non working mvs cart in a lot.



He claimed that it was an official SNK poster, i take his word for it , the paper is heavy , the other side not printed.
I never seen on the web another pictures of it , the symmetric repetition design ?!.....

This poster is for SamSho III not IV. And why shouldn't it be official? Although everything printed twice sure looks strange.

Maybe for an arcade? Up coming or new release banner?

Although I wonder what they mean by 3D movement? This game doesn't even use planes let alone any other "real 3D".

my guess is that they mean the game has tight controls and isn't stiff like previews fighting games. they used to say a lot of things that didn't actually mean what was said back then.

The AB dodge and close range f+AB turnaround are technically 3D moves because the player moves into the 3rd plane to dodge an attack or get to the other side of an opponent. This, as opposed to normal Street Fighter where most characters can't switch sides without jumping over each other in the 2D plane. Strange advertising, but that's probably what they meant.

The poster looks like it was designed for a sign, where it folds or wraps around in a plastic insert. So that way, regardless of which way customers come to the arcade/machine, they can read it.
