Was there any specifications on why they ranked it as it is? I didn't see any. SNKP>Capcom! (But Konami>SNKP.) Take that Capcom!

"NINJA GAIDEN betrays expectation, however it was possible to call, was whether the enemy to guard too much just a little stress accumulated."

This game betrayed expectations? I wasn't expecting much but Team Ninja proved me wrong.

Hey Click. Are you adding NGBC scans to the Arcadia 56 section? What about 57? You plan on scanning that too?

Thanks.

I think I have scans from 56, but I never put them up... I just picked up 57 today... give me a few days before I get around to putting any more up.

I don't know, do you have a direct link to what you want me to translate ?

I think the favourite characters were 1) Ash 2)Garnet 3)Gedô.
Ash first is like the best joke of 2005 already. SNKP is the only company who couldn't buy reviews in Famitsu, so they bought Arcadia instead.

Ash is ranked way too high.

Garnet's way too high also.

I will not ask how Kusaregedou's on that list.

Terry should be in the top three.

I guess Aran's too high.

Goose is too high. =P

As much as I like her, Malin shouldn't be on the list.

Chun-Li's too low.

Nakoruru's too low also.

Surprised people like Shiki and Leona didn't make the cut.

It's actually Vagina, he is the Miss X of Gundam, in other words; the main anti hero becomes good, disguises, denies his identity though everyone knows it's him and has a 'you dumped me' war like drama with the main evil mistress in Z gundam.

See??? He is a God...

Nobody likes Nako anymore.
There are thesis about the change of character between Nako in SS and Nako in SSS, and don't even try to know about the changes in each game.

Shiki is like the most boring character to play in her series, and Leona's style of frigid character has been unfashionable for years.

I'd complain about Kula being ranked too low, but considering that not even K' made it to the list, I'll just be glad that she's there. As for Kusaregedo being there at all, let alone #3... >_>

C'mon! Leona being in that list would surprised me to no limit, but is good to see there's people who like her. I don't know why but I usually end up liking those kind of characters: Rei in EVA, Sakaki in Azumanga, Lilith in beatmaniaIIDX...

This reminds me when SNK Vs Capcom was hot, and I entered one of the chats at SNK World (thanks Exodus for the guide!

). I succeded in getting the poeple at speaking english, they sure were surprised to see a Spanish fellow in a Japanese chat. We started talking about what female KOF characters we liked, and they where shocked when I said I liked Leona. It was very funny because there was 1 person that didn't understand a single english word, and there was one guy who was tranlating back everything we where talking in english.

They were puzzled when they found out I knew about most of the games they were talking about. "Guilty Gear is famous even in Spain!". I couldn't get them to understand that it was because I'm into Japanese stuff and not a casual gamer.

Oh! And there was a pretty funny guy that kept on telling me "I'm the king of hentai!". He then said "hentai=japanase joke". I answered back with a few names of hentai mangakas, and he changed a bit the subject: "Oh, I see... I like Mai. I like big tits!".

I had a really good time discussing games, manga, japanese music... Isn't it pretty rare to get japanese people speak english?

Just my opinion. That or this is my pre-climax way of saying, "Why isn't Exodus not high enough of that list?" I don't know. You decide how you interpret it.

I honestly think people are whining too much and being way too harsh on Kusaregedo. He's not that bad of a character, ferchrissakes. At least he's original, unlike most of the other characters introduced in SS0.

Maybe it's residual rage because he wants to eat an annoying lolicon character...? Nah, couldn't be.

THIS IS DWARF INVASION!

Weird, you're talking as if people were complaining about Gedô being 3rd.
Ah, you mean they are complaining because he ought to be 1st ! Ah, yes, I understand you.

I was just surprised, because I thought Nowave should have been there (if only for all the AW-NET robery).
In my experience, 2003 stopped being played a few month after its release.
On the other hand, it goes along with the amazingly laughable 1st place of Ash.
