When compared to other SNK arcade smashes on Neo Geo, this game has to be the best. When it was on arcade, I remember spending quarter after quarter and hours trying to master it. The original Samurai Showdown was good, but this one is off the charts. If you have a Neo Geo system or Neo Geo CD, then you have to find this Samurai Showdown 2 playable for that system.

Read full reviewĢnd Favorite Game, losing only to Marvel Vs. I guess that's due to the fact it is a portable game and has no save feature.so you have to finish it in one sitting. Also, for a fan of the Samurai Shodown series, the feel and gameplay is very enjoyable. The moves are pretty int uitive and I don't imagine it would take more than about 5 minutes to become pretty capable at the game. They picked a good palette for the screen, given that it is not backlit. The good: The graphics are pretty decent for this little system, as are the sounds. Also, there is a card collecting feature which adds a nice twist. There are slash and bust modes to extend the game time. The gameplay is a limited by the lack of buttons on the Neo Geo Pocket (only two). There are single player and survival modes to keep you busy. Basically, take a subset of the list of Samurai Shodown characters and fight your way to the end. I bought it mainly as a collector's item, not expecting too much incredible gameplay on the Neo Geo Pocket and I wasn't disappointed.


Overall, it's a decent game if you are a Samurai Shodown fan or collector.
