Samurai Shodown 2
SCORE: 36
We are getting close to finishing off the
Neo Geo Pocket games we own. Next up for review is Samurai Shodown 2.
This is another SNK fighting game. Another one that has a bad image, and
lack of diversity within the Neo Geo Pocket library. Like other Neo Geo
Pocket games, Samurai Shodown 2 is hard to see. I had a full lamp behind
it just to get a decent view of the violent action. When I moved the
little hand held device too much I lost visual. The 3DS has a similar
problem when using the 3D. So this is nothing new in our industry.
Samurai Shodown 2 has poor controls, and it moves from boringly easy to
nearly impossible. I love how I could decimate the first five
characters, and then unable to ever hit the sixth one. He would block
and then combo me to death. No strategy, and no chance. I eventually
gave up with a headache from the graphics.
This 16 meg game has lame sounds, and comments from the characters.
Eastern religious content is also within this aggressive hand held video
game. The modes are 1P Play, Survival, VS Play, Collection, and Game
Options. Samurai Shodown 2 is one of the reasons this hand held device
failed.
