Ready, fight! King of Fighters 97 and Guilty Gear available in PlayStation Store Japan
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 Â¥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.
