Perhaps the biggest development for PlayStation fans is the announcement that the company plans to finally release some of its formerly Japan-only PS2 games in North America. Going into 2007, SNK Playmore hopes to bring a new King of Fighters compilation to North America, along with its classic Samurai Shodown and Mark of the Wolves titles. Previously, the company was unable to publish these games here due to strict Sony guidelines regarding 2D games, but those guidelines have been relaxed thanks to Sony's desire to keep support for the PS2 alive in the wake of the release of the PlayStation 3.


This is great news for me! I can't wait to see some of these games make there way onto the PS2 in North America :]

My guess is we will get:

The King of Fighters Orochi Collection '95-'97
Samurai Shodown V or Samurai Spirits: Tenkaichi Kenkakuten
Garou: Mark of the Wolves
The King of Fighters XI

I will be happily suprised if we get any of these, and to get more would be a huge bonus. I am eager to see what announcements get made in the coming months.

Well check this out. In germany Atari has acquired the rights to publish a lot of titles from SNK. Among the more obvious ones also getting released in North America like the releases on the handheld systems, these title inparticular are getting published. None of these have been released in the US:

- King of Fighters Neowave (PS2)
- NEOGEO Battle Coliseum (PS2)
- Samurai Shodown 6 (PS2)
- King of Fighters XI (PS2)

Hopefully we will indeed get these. That would be great!!
