Nishiyama, who served as the head of SNK’s development group, says this marked a tough time for him personally, in part because he was opposed to the release of the Neo Geo Pocket, which SNK invested in heavily. SNK failed to find the same level of success outside of fighting games, trying its hand at a CD version of its Neo Geo home console, new 3D arcade hardware, and a Neo Geo Pocket series of portable game machines.
Console games were exploding, the fighting game boom was over, and Capcom and SNK’s arcade divisions were left trying to scrape the last pieces of candy out of the piñata.įortunately for Capcom, it had managed to grow its console game division in the meantime, finding success with the Resident Evil series, among others. Capcom kept up appearances, the business was changing. I even reached out to a Capcom representative, who told me it was the first they'd seen of it as well.By the late ’90s, though, the industry’s momentum caught up to it. I've not been able to recreate this effect despite countless tries thereafter, nor have I found anything on the internet about others having done it. Like the majority of these attire variations, it was slight, but it does mean developers at Capcom have hidden away at least one such goodie in Street Fighter 5, and likely more for other fighters.įrom what I can recall I was simply drumming on the arcade stick buttons (and not touching the stick, but I'm not 100% certain of this) and somehow caused Akira to raise the visor of her motorcycle helmet.
Thanks to SeriphAngel for the info, and now let's see if any other characters have similar changes.Įarlier: While playing an online session in Street Fighter 5 recently, I accidentally accessed an Easter egg costume alteration for Akira's story costume that I'd never seen before. Update: We've since discovered how to do this: hold light punch and medium kick as the round loads.
