i love the aesthetic/lore of the this game. definitely one of my favourites, right up there with classic MK and KI. great character design and cool backstories for all. gameplay is badass too. kind of reminds me of like a more primitive soul calibur.

Weaponlord is one of the best fighters of the 16 bit era, with some really interesting mechanics. Supposedly it inspired Soul Blade.
>>
I don't think it was very good , pretty clunky as I remember but still some fond memories of Mace The Dark Age. I think I will have to see how well it emulates considering 64 emulation sucks
>>
My brother and I still play Mace The Dark age almost every weekend. It's stupid but I would bet we're probably some of the best in the world at it right now. So useless.
>>
I always liked Last Bronx on the Saturn. Not a great game but fun to mess around on.

Darkstalkers and Fighting Vipers, especially the latter, seeing it had the cool system where you actually had armor on (an your enemy could break it if they punched hard enough) and a literal Jojo reference.

Throw your nostalgia to the side, you know this to be true!
>>
>>3947498

Are you kidding? Everyone talks about Dark Stalkers, especially because of Morrigan the Succubus. It's one of the most talked about fighting games there is.
>>
>>3947518
Huh. Maybe I'm just out of the loop then.
>>
>>3943147
I used to own a copy of it. Traded in for Fighter's Destiny. Also a good N64 fighter.
>>
>>3947518
I play the game, part of the discord and still hardly see anyone talk about.
>>
>>3948184
It's true. Darkstalkers is very well known because Morrigan, but very few people play it at all which means there really isn't a reason to talk about it. Other than the occasional person chiming in that they like it here I can't think of a single big discussion about it, even in dedicated threads.

Rival Schools was actuallt bretty good, and sexy.

I remember when I was super excited to get a burned copy of Fighting Vipers 2 on Dreamcast. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't nearly as good as I thought it would be.

>>3943787
There is a small but devoted community for this game as it's 7 characters are balanced nearly perfectly.

I found Tech Romancer last year and loved it. It plays damn well on MAME and had a Dreamcast release.

That's because Americans are better game designs than dirty Japs.

I know a bit about Advanced V.G. 2, some combos, how some characters work. I know there's a small Japanese scene for it that play it every year at an event called Kyuugeki. As far as 90s waifu fighting games go, it's one of the best.

But I can't do this combo to save my life. The dummy always recover from hitstun before I get to land the second rush move, after the fireball super.

>>3943147
Oh shit mang, is that sum MACE: THE DARK AGE?

I remember seeing this on the arcades back in the day and thinking it was the coolest shit ever, that big red knight on the sides was the shit.
