SEGA VS Fighting Games - "Better run home to mama now!"

[Mystic Monkey]

Can't help myself to admire Nintendo's spirit back then.
They're not afraid to try anything.
Anything to keep them alive.
Now they are in comfort zone and sometimes lost their fighting spirit.

Happy 25 Years Anniversary for Cyber Troopers Virtual-On (PC Version) !

1997 saw a Windows PC release of Virtual-On.
Derived from the Saturn game, however unlike previous Sega PC games, it required a 166MHz Pentium MMX processor to run, which at the time was only available as part of high-end machines.
Despite this, the game was unable to hit a stable frame rate with the recommended hardware, and 3D accelerator cards were not supported.

Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles (Swicth) is Devilishly Good!

The voice cast does a great job all across the board, playing up all the performances with just the right amount of passion and cheesiness.
It does get a little old having Tanjiro constantly monologuing in his head at every little thing going on around him, and there are occasional scenes that get close to Tidus’-laugh-in-FFX bad, but it’s all part of the overall charm.
Meanwhile, the soundtrack borrows a lot from the anime and hits all the right tonal beats, although we didn’t find any tracks to be particularly memorable.

That's where Mario's movie comes in to be pitted against Sonic's movie... oh yeah, Sonic second movie had Mario's movie on the run!

Yes, and probably later Sonic 3 movie vs Mario 2 movie too.
Sonic made the score first right now.

There is one hindrance to Mario's movie backing down though, and that is they may rewrite or redo parts of it to surpass the Sonic movies. They've seen the Sonic movies, they know how popular and fortunate they are, they can learn from that. Sonic movies maybe the best for now but they've already shown their hand to Nintendo.

Yeah, also Miyamoto himself is being invested as consultant in this movie.
His works rarely dissapoints.

Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles - Character Introduction : Rui

Serving as Lower Five of the "Twelve Kizuki" under Muzan Kibutsuji, Rui is a demon with a childlike appearance who operates out of Mount Natagumo.
He masterfully wields sharp and sturdy threads of steel, while also maintaining control over his “family” through fear.

Was he a consultant in the previous movie? Either way this movie will likely hit hard.

No. I think one of the reason's back then communicating between countries are costly.
Unlike this time when internet, zoom, whatsapp, etc are easily available.
