Ready, fight! King of Fighters 97 and Guilty Gear available in PlayStation Store Japan |
Ó
Armchair pugilists take notice - Sony's just unleashed a torrent of retro SNK fighting game joy onto PlayStation Store Japan, as well as a handful of unforgettable classics from legendary developers such as Idea Factory and Atlus.Earn the title that's still being coveted to this very day with King of Fighters '97. Let your trusty blade do all the talking for you in Samurai Spirits: Kenkaku Yubinan Pack (never released outside the US, and available for ¥600 - or US$6).
Ask your opponent if he's okay, and then SLAM your fist into his face with Real Bout Garou Densetsu Special: Dominated Mind. And finally, get into some smoothly-animated, crazy-fighting action with the original Guilty Gear.
Certainly good news for us token junkies itching to finally get some sweet arcade fighting joy on the road - and also on our couches, with downloaded PS1 titles fully compatible with the PlayStation 3. Retro addicts should also know that Sony went ahead and updated a bunch of PS1 games they previously released for download to work on the next-gen console, so everybody wins.
Let's hope Sony doesn't let up on the retro goodness. In the meantime, here's the complete list of the new titles out this week for your reading pleasure.

so, can crafty americans with japanese sign in's also download devil dice?
PSP DPAD SUX :(
ps3 dpad is the best then wii then 360.
Ol school guilty gear on my psp? fawkin A. My psp is gonna rock again
It all ready does all these games and more, sony stay late and 360 dpad does suck, but its the best i can get
why do people like you expect sony to stop releasing games just because you can emulate them?
mm... Had this for years with NeoGeos emus... have I missed something??
that they would randomly get a screenshot with 69 seconds left on the clock. unless they did that on purpose, in which case, rock on!!! :D
YUP. Thats why, I have bought (on ebay, from us> eu) two hori doa4 arcade stick for my 360.
More like $5. The yen is weak right now.
Even though my major at university was not related to computer science, I have taken many computer part-time courses for one year in Japan. My cousin whose major is computer informatics brought his computer booklet to my house; I spent a few hours to read it to kill some time. I translated all the Japanese texts into English. For your benefits, read the following paragraphs to increase your knowledge. If you want to compare the speeds (performances) of CPUs, run a benchmark software; or just do some math and calculate the values. - System architecture: PS2’s EE (emotion engine, CPU, by Sony & Toshiba) is implemented in 128 bit technology. EE was mass produced in 1999; at that time, all PCs (personal computer) in the world were made in 32 bit tech. Then a few years later, Intel and AMD (advanced micro devices) which are world’s 1st and 2nd biggest CPU manufacturers for PC industry, started to produce CPUs based on 64 bit tech. PC industry will have to go a long way until PC CPUs are made in 128 bit tech. - Clock speed (frequency) - Front Side Bus (FSB, system bus): is the physical bi-directional data path. (Quote) “PS2 CPU has 300 MHz speed, and PS2 console can run very complex games like God of War 2, Final Fantasy XII, and so on. On the other hand, my old PC’s CPU has 1.5 GHz (1,500 MHz) speed, and it can barely run very low-end games. How can it happen when my PC CPU is five (x5) times faster than the speed of PS2 CPU?” (Unquote) I have read comments like the above one many times which have been written by ign+rant and mor+nic losers. This is why many of you must read this informal essay (summary) to study and learn something. As I said earlier, you must consider all 3 factors: architecture, clock speed, and bus width. PS2’s CPU (300 MHz) is as fast as 1.5 GHz Intel Pentium 4 CPU. 300MHz EE = 1,500 MHz Pentium 4 (Standard Edition) (Or) 300 MHz EE = 3.0 GHz Celeron * 2 = (Celeron) 6,000 MHz worth of speed Sony and Toshiba’s PS2 CPU is five (x5) times faster than Intel’s standard CPU. PS2 CPU is twenty (x20) times faster than Intel’s Celeron CPU. Intel’s Celeron CPU (I don’t have enough writing space to educate you on this term, visit online encyclopedia and study by yourself) is basically a dumbed-down version of Standard Edition. The booklet (published in Apr. 2007) also talks about PC CPUs. Currently, the fastest CPU for PC is... Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6800 Quad-Core: $1,500 (tax inclusive, in US dollar). You may buy this dumbed-down version... Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 Quad-Core: Only $600 (tax inclusive). If you don’t get enough pocket money from your mom and dad then get the Duo version... Intel Core 2 Duo: Only $140 (tax inclusive). PS3’s Cell Microprocessor was jointly developed by a Sony, Toshiba, and IBM (an alliance known as STI). PS3’s Cell CPU is ten (x10) times faster than the speed of QX6800 Quad-Core ($1,500). You lowly-educated idi+ts always say that PS3 console is over-priced; you must be illiterate and blind; and I haven’t even talked about the future-device named Blu-ray drive in every PS3. A chart in this book shows something interesting (see below). If we say the speed of PS2’s CPU is six (6), then it becomes easy to compare all the other CPUs. 6 --- PS2 7 --- GameCube 9 --- Xbox 1 12 --- Intel Pentium 4 3.0 GHz Standard 13 --- Wii 20 --- QX6800 Quad-Core 100 --- X360 200 --- PS3 Just for your reference or ignorance (to fill in your stupidity), IBM and Japanese companies like Fujitsu and Hitachi are world’s leading manufacturers of SuperComputers. Currently (in 2007), world’s fastest SuperComputer is IBM’s Blue Gene (used in the department of US Nuclear Security). Its speed is 280 tera-flops. IBM is currently making the newest SuperComputer which will run at 5 peta-flops (jaw-dropping 5,000 tera-flops). This newest SuperComputer will use the updated version of PS3’s Cell-microprocessor. Professional analysts have said that Sony will use this updated version of Cell CPU for their PlayStation 4 in the future.
yes, you did.
AoxomomoxoA, thank you but "WHO CARES"Totally irrelevant... go back to copy and pasting to slashdot.org Blah blah blah
I still want play these on my PS3. I hope we get these here in the U.S.
I wonder if you can go head to head against another PS3 on KOF....
