It's the rarest thing in the videogame world to take a game that gets nearly everything wrong, and dare to produce a sequel that's so very right. Because make no mistake, Neogeo Battle Coliseum is the continuation of SNK vs Capcom, with its Capcom side of the fighting equation replaced with an eccentric collection of characters from a great span of SNK franchises, from obvious choices like King of Fighters and Samurai Showdown, to the underrated World Heroes and even the non-fighting Metal Slug series. Though if you're facing down a Mars Person with a slow-moving sword jockey, you better prepare yourself for a hundred tentacle ass whoppin'.
