Wow, Samurai Shodown II on Live Arcade. THAT is awesome. Hopefully it’ll be $5 like Fatal Fury Special.
I’m not generally a fighting game fan but when I was a kid a friend of mine had a NeoGeo and his first and only game was SSII. Great game.

Oh man!! Pete you stole the words right out of my mouth. I think I’ll cry at the beauty that will be KOF XII.
