What Makes SAMURAI SHODOWN ACA NEOGEO Stand Out
NEOGEO's masterpiece games are now available in the app !!
And in recent years, SNK has partnered with Hamster Corporation to bring many of the classic games on the NEOGEO onto modern gaming environments through the ACA NEOGEO series. Now on smartphone, the difficulty and look NEOGEO games had back then can be reproduced through screen settings and options. Also, players can benefit from online features such as online ranking modes. More, it features quick save/load and virtual pad customization functions to support comfortable play within the app. Please take this opportunity to enjoy the masterpieces that are still supported to this day.
[Game introduction]
'SAMURAI SHODOWN' is a fighting game that was originally released by SNK in 1993.
The game features 12 swordmasters, each with their own unique personality. They will battle it out among each other before taking on Shiro Tokisada Amakusa in the game’s climax.
One of the unique characteristics of this game is the Rage Gauge which fills up as the player takes damage.
Once that gauge is full the character’s attacks do more damage, keeping the battles tense and exciting.

Community Insight:
We download this and was excited to play before we realized it doesnt support Backbone yet. Is this something you can add.
But it needs a training mode! Please.
This release of Samurai Shodown is high quality and very playable. It works great with the Backbone controller and another controller we tried from 8bitdo. PLEASE REDO THE SEQUEL LIKE THIS. The current version of II in the app store is terrible :(.
