Actual Entry (non editable)
Samurai Shodown IV - Amakusa's Revenge (c) 1996 SNK. The 4th installment of the weapons-based one-on-one fighting series features seventeen selectable characters and two end bosses. Changes to the established formula include the removal of both aerial blocking and the switch-around move (the latter of which which allowed a player to move quickly behind their opponent's back). Dodges, which allowed players to evade/side-step attacks are also gone. Players can no longer charge up their own POW gauge but a new move called the 'CD combo' was added; players can press the C and D buttons together, triggering a strike that can be followed up by a sequence of button taps. SNK also added a suicide move, allowing a player to forfeit a round. The advantage to this is that the one committing suicide will start the next round with a full "POW" gauge. Certain finishes also enable a "fatality" move in the vein of "Mortal Kombat". Some of the series' older characters were restored for the 4th game, including Charlotte, Tam Tam and Jubei Yagyu. The entire cast of the previous game also returns, although some have been redrawn to further enhance the cartoonish look. Joining the cast are the two ninja brothers: * Kazuki Kazama - member of the Kazama ninja clan specializing in fire jutsu, he deserts to rescue his younger sister, Hazuki, from Amakusa's clutches. * Sogetsu Kazama - older brother to Kazuki and Hazuki who uses water jutsu; unlike Kazuki, he stays with the clan and is ordered to assassinate his brother for leaving. - TECHNICAL - Runs on the SNK "Neo-Geo MVS" hardware. GAME ID: NGM-0222 Players: 2 Control: 8-way joystick Buttons: 4 => [A] Light attack with weapon, [B] Medium attack with weapon, [C] Strong attack with weapon, [D] Kick - TRIVIA - Samurai Spirits - Amakusa Kourin was released on October 25, 1996 (Friday) in Japan. The subtitle translates from Japanese as 'Amakusa's Descent'. This game is known outside Japan as 'Samurai Shodown IV - Amakusa's Revenge'. - TIPS AND TRICKS - * Beat the entire game in the time limit to see a picture of Wan-Fu or Sieger after the end credits. Who appears is entirely at random though. * In order to see a special win pose with the puppies, win with a double perfect using Slash Galford. Galford will say, 'Arigato!' as the puppies scamper across the screen. * I'm Not Afraid Of You!: Think you are really good? Tap START 3 times quickly to make your character drop his/her sword. Now show your opponents that the most fearsome weapons are the ones you were born with! Note : a few characters are really hampered by the loss of weapon (e.g. Haohmaru, Kazuki, Sogetsu) and a few are not really affected (Nakoruru, Rimururu, Hanzo). * Sepukku (Suicide): Press Back, then move your joystick a quarter circle from forwards to down and press START to make your character kill himself/herself and lose the current round (Useless trick? Not quite since you will start the next round with a full rage gauge!). * Silly Name Trick: Now this is weird! At the naming screen input 'AAA' as your name to make your character faint! - SERIES - 1. Samurai Spirits [Model NGM-045] (1993) 2.
