Finished Twin Cobra on default settings. Fun game, too bad out of the 8 difficulties with 4 labeled "easy" they couldnt manage to actually make one of them easy.
Not sure what to play next. Probably some SNES fighting games I think. I should do that Star Wars game but its just kinda repetitive and boring.
Edit: Finally beat Kizuna Encounter. The golden strategy is to use the A+B dash and time it when they attack and get the distance so you go right beside them and then throw or heavy attack.
Also beat the Genesis version of Fatal Fury. Great game and great port given the limitations.
Edit again: Finally beat the last boss of Art of Fighting last night. I felt so burnt out after and still kinda do. I played super defensive while he had meter and was to the right of me, use low kick as a jab because he will use it if you dont, use neutral kick as an anti-air, try to jump the hao-kens if you read them but dont risk it if youre hesitant, and as soon as you get your first knock down against him learn to time your hao-kens perfectly and you should be able to blast him every time he stands up 3 times which will do over half his health. There were rounds where I had less than 10% health and he was full health but I can back to win because of this. When he runs out of meter you can attack with jump kicks as he is not so good at anti-airs when he cant use his rapid punch special. If he jumps into you when youre in the corner it forces you out of the corner and he takes your place. If this happens go super aggressive with jump kicks and try to use the punch jab if he is right in your face. This fight is really a mental test because he can punish you so brutally and so much of it is luck because of how it reads your inputs. You can finally take a round off him then have the next two stolen from you despite making zero errors. e.g. he rushes you at the start, you time it so he runs into the end of your low kick and as soon as you push the button he stops in his tracks and initiates his rapid punch special at the perfect range to grab your extended hitbox of your leg because of the kick and within seconds half your health is gone, you wake up dizzy twice, he brutally punishes each time finishing you and that one kick was the only input you ever got to make. If you ever beat this you will have to go thru a really long phase where you will win a round then get annihilated in the next 10. Its a mental test of staying calm despite all the BS more than anything. Then after all that its supposed to be revealed that the evil karate master is *spoilers* your dad Takuma, but I didnt even get that, because your sister says "Ryo, stop, that man is our..." and then it says to be continued. Thanks SNK you dicks. I love you sometimes but this one really annoyed me lol
I dont want to put this wall of text in spoiler tags this time because the forum glitch seems to delete anything in any kind of tag and so it seems my wall of text from beating Rugal has been erased. Hopefully it can be restored but if not from what I remember I was talking about how I beat both Saisyu and Rugal with just Billy and it happened on a run I wasnt taking seriously where Saisyu was trolling me.
