Huh? At last,a (graphically) brand new Samurai Spirits? And in 3D? Surely I will regret this words, but it sounds pretty promising for the time being. I guess they will bring back a bunch of characters from the two previous 3D installements, which would count as a good idea on my book.
And about KOF... well, not that I really care, but a new MI is not bad news for me. That being said, I hope the new board would allow some graphic improvement, much needed in both 3D and 2D sagas... but I won't hold my breath, of course. It's SNK, after all.

A new Sengoku BASARA for PS2 and Wii.
Speaking of KOF 98, rumors has it that Ultimate Match would ship at 3900 yen, which is quite a blow. MOTW was that price, and it had nothing over the regular rom. New expectations are 98 will have the NG version, the DC version for whatever person thinks the 3D background weren't lame even at the time, and voilà.
Oh, and also yet another interview swearing that they intended to add the boss team, Kasumi, Goenitz and Eiji this time, but, for the 4th time, they couldn't because, you know, stuff.
The rumor better be wrong, Imo.

If it was just a filter, don't you think it would be silly not to include it in all those Neo Geo Online collection games?
They had to redraw all of the sprites, so besides of what you think it looked like, it's a lot of work.
Sorry for the misunderstanding, I meant, "adding the Rebout look" which definetely looks like SOME kind of filter and THEN they draw in extra little details on the face and clothes. The sprites are nicely touched up, but I wouldn't call them completely redrawn (ie from scratch)
And I don't find it a BAD thing at all, like I said in the recent news topic, the 94 RB sprites LOOKED great, but still retained some very AWKWARD animation. Adding the style to 98 game or newer game that has significantly improved Animation would look great. Plus adding that to a silky smoothly animated character like Oswald would be heaven. If you play KoF 2003 for the PS2, the ending/story cutscenes also have the sprites in "Rebout style" except they don't animate (only for Mukai's little animation)

I'm not expecting anything at all, but if they -were- to do something new, a redraw makes sense, because then they could keep the same hit boxes/timing etc. (mostly), right? Totally redrawing would be like building the game from the ground up, which could be a bad thing.
Regardless, I would expect a "lean" year if they do redraws, and as Iggy said, a better game for the sequel.
If they do such a thing, then I once again cry for a "all inclusive" Neowave 2.

Knowing how SNK is over here, I doubt we'll see US releases of some of these. I can't wait to see some screenshots.

On KOF 98 Ultimate Match :
The arrange mode has an "Ultimate Match" logo. The original mode has the regular logo, it seems to be a complete port with just the online and the color edit added.
The arrange mode has several new modes over the regular arrange and extra (a total of four ?) the select screen was not shown yet. Characters in the trailer : Kyô, Iori, Kasumi, Geese, Terry, Kyô in regular clothes, Lucky, Omega Rugal. In the gackground, Vice, Mature, Eiji, Goenitz, Robert, Kim and some others were waiting. (Character waiting are still here ! thank god ! and Goenitz!) New energy (green, then red) and power gauge (somehow like the N groove in CvS2, except the stocks were shown as a number). An alternative (with the same old clothes) Terry was doing some sort of fire kick SC Buster Wolf. Kyô in regular clothes has the 182 shiki. Kasumi has hes super throw. Omega Rugal has his 02 teleport attack.
The winning drawings were Shinkirô-ish, and not the regular 98 ones. Not sure if it was him, but since Shinkirô is freelance, it might be. The game is not high reso like 94 Rebout, but it seems a bit more clean (?) Also, when asked if they could release this version of 98 in the arcades, they answered they were thinking about it and it would depend of the reception of the game.
Ijô. The guy wasn't sure of all this, he will come back tomorrow and check everything again. The video was shown only twice, while the MI:A one was running almost everytime.

I can't wait to get the game so I can use the touch screen to lift the skirts of all the girls I see to check if they're witches.
No kidding! Somehow, that really appeals to me as well. I guess I really like silly, "innocent" pseudo-eroticism like that...or maybe it's the artwork. I'm not usually into that sort of thing, but that guy's really good at what he does. I sort of wish the new Card Battle looked like that.
As for the SS deal, I'd say that its probably more relevant that they worked on Tenchu, given that the original SS is so outdated, and inferior to SSV. I mean, the sentiment is nice, and it's a good thing to say, but the game is so old and irrelevant at this point that it's better to look at what those people have done more recently.

Tell me what to make of this:
On the less-used stage, right before a live Athena "interview, there was a trailer that gave an extended plot dump of Mark of the Wolves, from start to end, with spoken dialog. They basically spoiled the entire plot. Then after Rock's ending, the trailer faded out -- only to fade back in, and to keep going, using brand new high-res art in the MotW style.
I can't remember what happened immediately afterward. After a minute, though, Mary turned up and discussed something with Terry; he got on the back of her bike, and they rode off. Then this text appeared, that Tim translated as something to the effect of "The story of the Wolf continues". (I'm sure someone here can do better.) Then there was a Garou Densestsu 15th anniversary trailer, that outlined the entire story behind the series.

Eh. I could care less about the three new Taito Type X2 games. Only "Sen" interests me, but not a whole lot.
Next year, this is what my game shopping list will look like:
- "Denshi Maid Tenchou" - "Dokidoki Majo Saiban" - "Rokuban Shoubu" - "Metal Slug VI" (yes, it came out last month, but there's one game I still need to get)
quote: SS, SSS, Zan, Ama, Rei, Tenka
The Hell? Well, if I can get "Rei" and "Tenka" in one collection, it helps, but still, this makes me wonder why this would be the case. I don't know if my friend will buy this even though he has "Tenka".

Actually, after further research, he was one of the key dotters of MOTW, wich forecasts good things for the new sprites of XII (since he knows the job and is responsible for some of the best sprites SNK ever did). The core game, impossible to tell, but at least it should end up good looking.
Also, if you have a definite source for claiming Nona didn't drew the demo art, I would be interested, since I haven't found any.

Well according to Moby Games, they list one of the Chief Designers as an "N. Kuroki" who I can only guess is Nona unless he went under a completely different name.
Looking THIS name up however, links him to one of the sprite artists for Real Bout Special and doing the in game demo artwork along with Ogura.
Geeze, and all this time I thought Nona was just some guy "Playmore" hired during KoF 2001's development.
