Art of Fighting - Image 1We've got a new game sighting thanks to the ESRB's Game ratings page today. According to the ESRB, SNK Playmore's Art of Fighting Anthology will be making its way to the Sony PSP and the Nintendo Wii. The PS2 version of this title is reportedly coming to U.S. shores this May, so maybe the Wii and PSP versions will also be released around that time.

Art of Fighting Anthology collects the entire Art of Fighting trilogy. Originally released for the Neo Geo platform in the early 90s, the Art of Fighting games predate SNK's popular King of Fighters series. A few characters from the former, like psycho crime lord Geese Howard, have lived on through their inclusion in the latter.

We'll be bringing you more details on this title as they surface, so keep checking back here on QJ for more updates.

And the Geese Howard isn't from the Art of Fighting series. He is from the Fatal Fury, the first game, who is older than AoF or even Street Fighter. He appears on AoF2 as a special and unplayable character.

I hate those kids who doesn't even know the history of the games...

 » what about listening to fans lol

first, they should just release king of fighters, and take out the diagonal motions in moves exactly instead of down, diagonal foward for ryo's fireball thingy, make it down, then foward. Capcom was too lazy to do something like this, instead they just slapped an uncompressed hacked rom on the psp and sold it with a useless stikcy dpad., since the psp dpad sucks.
secondly,
lastly, we already have art of fighting via emualtor so we dont need this lol. gg snk playmore.

I think its a good thing that SNK is droping titles on the Wii. If you own a Wii, buy it and support SNK just for the sake of it.

Neo Geo emulation is coming to Nintendo Wii's VC anyways. You'll see Fatal Fury and KOF. You'll absolutly see Samarui showdown on VC too.

What I look forward to more then anything is seeing Mark of the Wolves come out for the Wii.

Next thing we need is a wireless Hori stick for Wii. Holy ***** that would rock. No kidding. I should get paid to give them my brilliant ideas.

read plz, Geese started out in AoF then Fatal Fury


   Re: brunobelo (Unregistered) - 2007-04-24
 » Kind of.

Nope. In the HISTORY of the game, Geese started on AoF2, but in the REAL world, he first appear on Fatal Fury 1. FF1 is older than AoF2.
