SNK games

Can I get an essential SNK game list, please? I don't want to get too crazy with their library, just the must play games.

Metal Slug 1, X, 3, 5, 6.

Samurai Shodown II and Real Bout Fatal Fury Special if you want to play their non-KOF fighting games.

Yeah, I have Anthology. Are those versions good? Anything else?

KOF 98
Garou Mark of the wolves
Last Blade 2

Shock Troopers and Neo Turf Masters are pretty good.

Real bout 2 as well

I have The Last Blade 2 and I really enjoy that one. I forgot to ask, but which versions are the best? Originals on MAME, or are there better improved versions?

Real Bout Fatal Fury 2: The Newcomers
Garou: Mark of the Wolves
Metal Slug X, 3 4 & 5
King of Fighters 98
The Last Blade 1&2
Samurai Shodown II & V Special
Art of Fighting 2
Shock Troopers

I hope the list isn't too much, I just picked what I saw as the essentials.

looks good. But why KoF 98 in particular? It's always that one. I know they shuffle characters each release, was 98 the best on that end?

Biggest roster along with 02.

I like King of the Monsters on the SNES.

almost everything on neo-geo

sorry

really though, don't miss Windjammers, and that's probably one nobody will tell you. Metal Slug games are uniquely good among 2d shooters. Fighting games are fighting games, you'll find the one you want

Baseball Stars 2 is one of the best arcade sports game ever made

Viewpoint is a unique 3/4 perspective shooter with funk techno music

Neo turf masters

since i'm going to assume you mean neo-geo.

Waku Waku 7
MOTW
KOF98
Metal Slug 1 X 3
Neo Turf Masters
Last Blade 2
Windjammers
Magical Drop 2
Twinkle Star Sprites
Puzzle Bobble

does anyone know if neo geo emulates well on psp?

KoF, Metal Slug, Samurai Spirits

every now and then KOF does a dream match thing and ignores continuity and just puts a fuck ton of characters in

PSP has several compilations. Metal Slug Anthology, Samurai Shodown Anthology, KoF Orochi Saga, and SNK Arcade Classics

SNK vs. Capcom Card Fighters 2.

>Metal slug 4

No

They themselves have put out a lot of compilations.
MY personal favorite games of SNK unrelated to the said list:
Windjammers
Puzzle Bobble
Dunk Dream
2020 Super Baseball
Spin Master
Super Sidekicks 2

I plan to own my own shitty retail store-like a discount apparel shop or something- and put in those games on a MVS.
