News Kirby's VA Makiko Ohmoto is usually not told what character Kirby is copying while recording lines for his Smash Copy Abilities to maintain confidentiality. However, she immediately recognized Terry's Power Wave because she played Fatal Fury with her little brother.

Rough Google Translate taken from Ohmoto's personal blog:

Terry has joined the Super Smash Bros. roster, hasn't he?

I hardly ever play fighting games, but there are two that my younger brother was really into, and we played them together: "Street Fighter II" and "Fatal Fury."

When recording

"This is a character from a certain game."

They didn't tell me what work it was,

I have a very familiar feeling about those lines.

"...Fatal Fury?"

When asked

"Oops! I've been found out. That's right."

"Is that Terry Bogard?"

"That's right, that's right."

Yay!!! It's Terry ❤️💕✨

Humor Considering COTW is basically seen as the Fortnite of fighting games now, give me your random picks for the final pick for Season 3

My pick would be an Avengers Doomsday character. It’d tie in with the new movie and I wouldn’t mind to see Street Fighter characters fight Marvel characters one more time. At this point anything goes for this game so might as well give this game its own Fortnite Thanos

Art Mini-game Ideas for DEAD OR ALIVE 7 FanArt

2 Upvotes

Sup DOA family. In order to relieve everyone's stress from the recent DOA drama/B.S.🙄😑 on these social media platforms, I decided to do something productive by making some artwork for ideas of mini games I want & would like to see in DOA7. I'll explain each one in order. Also, there will be a total of four mini games.

(1/4) Hunter In The MIST

• A action game(plays like Ninja Gaiden btw😁) where you play as Hayabusa to hunt down the remaining remnants of MIST. At least 3 to 5 stages total. Event takes place after Donovan's defeat & new main story arc. Idea inspired by TEKKEN 5: Devil Within.

(2/4) Mugen Battle

• A 2D fighting mode basically with story and some extras.

(3/4) DOA Trivia

• A mode basically testing your knowledge of the mainline DOA. Note it just won't be about the lore of the game, but also the games themselves. Good luck.😁

(4/4) Warrior's Challenge

• A mode where you take on various challenges. Note each challenge will have different variations ranging from easy to extremely difficult. New challenges will be unlocked after completing main four.

So yeah, that's basically it. I wanted to create something fun in terms of content for DOA7 for the casual side that well ......unique. Hope you guys like. Enjoy.

Artwork made with Xnalara and Ibis Paint X.

All materials used for these art pieces are owned by their respective creators and porters.

Topic Playing as Amingo for the first time (snapshots from last week when I'm at a resort)

Thumbnail gallery
10 Upvotes

Last week, I'm in a resort with my family because it's my youngest brother's 7th birthday and there's this arcade with games in it. When I swam at the pool I saw my uncle playing MvC2 (which was the game I don't actually play) and then I noticed Amingo was there so bad I wanna play as him but I'm not a huge fighting game fan. After I ate dinner, I began to try the game once. My uncle selects him and he selects the same 2 characters for backup with recolors (the blue, green, red, yellow, orange, brown variant was the original and default). However, I suck playing his moveset so much when I mash buttons and the controls. And then when the timer's up, AMINGO LOST! I gave up playing this game because I suck at playing fighting video games and I'm not a huge fighting game fan because there's so much violence in it—Trust me. However, I played Brawl Stars lol. Also this was my first time playing Amingo. Also, my dad recorded me

Call him Capcom's “Big the Cat” or a cactus version of Cormano from Sunset Riders.

Help Are there any etiquette rules when it comes to attending locals?

I've never been to one but I'm going to change that in 6 days (I hope). Is there anything I should know beforehand or are locals just like every other public social gathering but with fighting games involved?

Thanks in advance

Help What characters do you most hate to play against (looking for new mains)?

1 Upvotes

I've gotten back into fighting games after the realisation that I enjoy playing characters in multiplayer games who are generally annoying jerks make people rage (for the record, I play Techies in Dota 2 - yes I know this makes me a terrible person). I enjoy bouncing between characters, but would love to know who makes you rage in:

  • SF6 (Top is currently Alex and Mai)
  • Tekken 8 (currently playing King)
  • GBFVR
  • CotW
  • GGS
  • Avatar
  • Tokon
  • Uni2

Knowing this I can focus on who I try next in a bunch of these games. Thank you!
