That's awesome.Aku-Audi said:I'm surprised no one has mentioned Battle K-Road, which features probably the best last stage of all time.
It goes from this:
to this:
when you fight the last boss, which is a bear that shares movesets with Ryu from Street Fighter II

Raging Spaniard said:I wish, its all very scattered. Some focus on SNK, some Capcom most are incomplete.
The challenge comes because you cant really rip them, somebody has to manually make screengrabs and rebuild them in Photoshop. Newer games are thankfully an exception since companies like to pimp their shit out and tend to display them somewhere (like when all the Blazblue backgrounds were given out as reference for an art contest)

SNK really makes the best backgrounds though, that plaza with the rain in particular is absolutely stunning.[/QUOTE]
So Maj linked this thread on his [URL="http://combovid.com/?p=4655"]Combovid blog[/URL] and [URL="http://www.youtube.com/user/error00001"]error1[/URL] actually posted the background I was talking about in all its full glory!

So yeah, Gaf > Internet > Gaf
I love the pigmies and the baboon, especially since I'm a Brazilian and know there aren't any of those here. I've always had the theory that they were in the helicopter and escaped when it crashed.patrickthehedgehog said:
Hotaru had a rad character intro on this stage.Grzi said:One of the best threads ever. So much memories.
Almost everything I would've posted has been posted already, but check this out:
Anyone else thinks that the flags look a bit like the Neogaf logo?

Murrah said:Props to you, I'm surprised yours is the first mention of Marvel Super Heroes I've seen; the animations were really well done, and I remember thinking Dr. Doom's stage was particularly awesome once the ship surfaced

patrickthehedgehog said:In Choppasmith's post the sewer is KOF99 and the two on the bottom are from Art of Fighting 3. Not sure what the two top ones are from.
Flying_Phoenix said:What's crazy is that SNK was using specs from 1990.
I'm surprised they never launched a new 2D board.
Norante said:Piracy did destroy SNK. Their game ROMs were being distributed on the web hours after the games made it to the arcades.
Make one!RelentlessRolento said:where the hell is the 3D Fighter Background equivalent of this thread? there's a lot of nice 3D backs as well, though prob not as many as 2D.

Yeah, I hope I don't get anyone banned for this (myself included). I had this one open because someone linked to it in the other topic, and I just forgot to ctrl+w it. Went to go look up some screens for Ultima Underworld on google, came back and c/p'd the images without looking at the topic title. I don't really know the rules on bumping old topics, but it is what it is I guess =\TheSeks said:Damn it, pa22. I didn't even notice the time stamp until I just replied. :|
