snk wii compilations

[mekanor]

trying to track down the various anthologies and collections on the wii and wondering which ones are available in pal. i dont mind getting american copies but pals easier if it exists.

so im wondering if:

• Art of Fighting Anthology actually even got released on the wii. remember reading something about an esrb rating for it but not seen it since
  
• SNK Arcade Classics Vol. 1 got a pal release outside of germany (cant stand the gigantic usk ratings)
  
• Samurai Shodown Anthology got a pal release

the metal slug one is everywhere and i found a french king of fighters on ebay which will do as long as i dont want to read the manual.

• and also not snk but wondering if guilty gear accent core plus got a pal release

I've definitely seen PAL SNK Arcade Classics Vol.1 available in the local HMV.

Not sure about the others I'm afraid.

I'm fairly certain the PAL version of Samurai Shodown hasn't had a release, at least in the UK anyway, I'm still waiting for my PS2 pre-order to ship.

Art of Fighting Anthology is PS2 only as far as I know

Samurai Shodown isn't out yet. Luckily my copy was sent to me before it was delayed

[Soundwave]

Guilty Gear got a PAL release as well.

It's available from HMV pretty easily if you need a copy??

Seems like ages since I pre ordered it, wonder whats taking them so long to get it released. Did you get a review copy?

ah thats sad. im sure i read somewhere it was coming, though it could easily have been cancelled.

Guilty Gear got a PAL release as well.

was it accent core plus though? i know original accent core did as ive got it right here, just not seen plus.


thanks all for the info

Possibly, just had a quick look on ignitions site, the publishers and under the Wii section they have Samurai Shodown, Metal Slug, Arcade Classics & King of Fighters Collection, Art of Fighting only shows up under the PS2 catagory.

SNK Arcade Classics Vol. 1 is definitely out, I bought mine from Amazon (UK) a few months back. Looking now they are showing 1 left in stock at £17.99 (not much use for you in AUS tho ):

http://www.amazon.co.uk/SNK-Arcade-Classics-vol-Wii/dp/B001I454NU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1248453858&sr=1-1

I'm 99% sure the Art of Fighting one is PS2 only.

As for the SS Anthology, it seems to have been delayed a few months back - along with the PS2 version as far as I can tell. I've sent multiple emails to those useless tossers at Ignition asking for release dates or confirmation of whether its been released already or not, but they never send a reply.

They just seem to do such a piss poor job at releasing their games. I've wanted to buy 3 or 4 of their PS2 compilations but you just can't find the damn things anywhere.

[mekanor]

ok sad for art of fighting, maybe it will come one day. and looks like ill have to wait a while for samurai shodown then

Oooh not sure now.

Will look when I'm in town tomorrow for you if you like??

Neil

ah yes please if you dont mind. thanks

[Soundwave]

ah yes please if you dont mind. thanks

Had a look today & I couldnt tell

The one that HMV stock is called Guilty Gear: Core
Doesnt make any mention of if it's the patched version or the original buggy release.

Sorry I couldnt help out more.

Neil

[mekanor]

nah thats ok. i have the original which says guilty gear core on the spine despite the title actually being guilty gear xx ^ core. id say plus is either not out yet or not coming out at all
