"Hardcore players only..."

I only give this game a 4 because there is some replay value here although the glitch makes me sick to the stomach. For the most part the game is super repetitive as most card games as you go from floor to floor battling mindless people. I hated the fact that SNK took away our roaming capabilites from the first 2 games that were released on the ill fated Neo Geo Pocket. The dialogue looks like someone from middle school had their way with the game and don't even get me started on the horrible translations! As I read through each card profile, I got confused on what they were tryint to say as there were no comma's or any kind of vocabulary. Don't get me wrong, if your a fan of the first two games and your a hardcore collector then go for it. But if your a guy just wanting to get a card game, your best bet is to go for Marvel's VS. It may be a little more complicated than your favorite SNK and Capcom characters duking it out but hey it's better than nothing. My suggestion is to wait for the 2nd release (if this ever happens) so you can avoid the glitch all together. I feel sorry for SNK... it's been all downhill the last few years. They don't release anything new and all the stuff they do put out are cheap versions of previous games carted. How the mighty have fallen.

Now I know you all must be thinking what is this guy talking about? Some of you may have already bought the glitched game as I did and are feeling kind of ripped off huh? Well welcome to my world friends. So far I have only heard of 2 people who has unaffected games... now take a second to think about that a second... that's 2 out of how many carts they made? What a joke. Gamestop and EB Games won't let me return my game because they said the game technically isn't broken until SNK makes an official annoucement regarding the glitch... well it's been 7+ days now that we bought all of our games and still no announcement. The only thing we have to go for is some stupid forum where an admin states that they are currently researching the glitch. I think SNK better fix this problem and offer new copies of each game to each customer or this problem can get real ugly, real fast. To alienate whatvever fanbase that SNK has left in America will seriously bring down the USA division. The only games left for them is the Metal Slug series and the King of Fighters series. Both are long overdue for a new game rather than ports. Sooner or later people will just turn away to bigger and better games. Hurry with an answer soon fella's cuz the long you take, the more profit and people you lose.
