Shin Akuma was what sold me on the character. That CPU never stopped moving. The art and his intro so badass

"I am the fist master! Neither heaven nor hell can hold a candle to my power!" Shin Akuma ending in SVC CHAOS

At this point I need Max in an Akuma cosplay for the next video

CVS2 Shin Akuma is probably one of my favorites boss fights in fighting games and also one of the coolest.

2:08 CVS1 Ratio system RATIO 1: Underdogs RATIO 2: Heroes RATIO 3: Bosses RATIO 4: Evil Secret Characters

Max: Wait a minute. No! WHY‽ IT''S SHIN AKUMA! NO! Noooo.... Whhy‽ Noooo it's the wrong one!" Akuma: Ryu is dead!

Playing CVS2 was so much fun because if you meet the requirements you will never know which boss you could get after the final stage. Some players aimed to get Shin Akuma but instead got Ultimate Rugal while others aimed to get Ultimate Rugal but instead got Shin Akuma. And there's the regular Akuma & Rugal. Fighting games with more than one boss are much more fun

Misogi, the KKZ alternate and Akuma's signature super in most crossover games, appearing in CvS 2, SvC, and SFxT. I love it.

I remember the good old days of Maximilian's CVS2 boss rage videos taking on both Shin Akuma & Ultimate Rugal 😌

"SCV ready!" "Woo-hoo! Overtime!" "What, you run outta Marines?"

"SCV" Akuma in Starcraft let's gooo

You can have Akuma/Gouki in a team in CVS1 arcade by holding specific attack buttons at the title screen before pressing start. The mode is called 'Pair Match', which sets all characters to ratio 2, including bosses.

The direction SNK went with SNK vs Capcom Chaos is such a weird one. When it was announced I think the expectation from everyone following the game was a game that was essentially KoF with Street Fighter/Capcom characters in it. But it’s like SNK saw that Capcom went the team direction and completely shifted gears from what they normally were doing at that time. It’s too bad the direction they didn’t go was something like using SVC Chaos as an excuse to make a follow up to Garou:Mark of the Wolves or something. Like if they were going to do one-on-one fights, having the game basically be MotW2 but with characters from KoF and Capcom games would’ve been cool. It does have some nice sprites. I do like the games roster picks too.

Max better hurry up he's only got 3 more days to dish these out till Akuma launches

Akuma with orochi power is so sick even if it's just a small portion of it

"As the sun rises in Osaka City, Where is Shin Akuma? Some believe in a "martial arts god" who disappeared into the fire but will one day return." Shin Akuma ending in Capcom vs SNK 2

That image of Zangief on the character selection screen hit me like a ucking TRUCK!

SvC Chaos came out _after_ SNK emerged from bankruptcy as Playmore in 2003, but it actually started development before they went bankrupt. Post-bankruptcy, though, it looks like they pushed it out quickly, which is why it's so rough around the edges. I heard that it was _Capcom_ who pushed SNK to release the game when they did to honour their deal (I think it was 3 games apiece? Though I would have thought SNK already had 3 games done at that point, albeit all for Neo Geo Pocket), so they pushed it out mostly as contractual obligation. Also, in CvS1 arcade, there was a way to put all characters into Ratio 2, so you could have any two characters (including Akuma) on a team. Oh, and the Dreamcast version had free ratio edit first, allowing you to set any character to any ratio. (The Dreamcast version also had the ability to turn on _running_ in the options, which wasn't possible in the arcade, as even SNK Groove had dashing. Running was clearly meant to be an option, most likely for SNK Groove, since all characters have run animation, but Capcom ended up not putting it in probably because running was _waaaaay_ too good; everyone's run speed was _crazy_ fast, like twice as fast as the running speed in CvS2; Chun-Li and Vega were like Marvel characters who could warp across the screen with their runs). So if anyone insists on checking oit CvS1 for whatever reason, check the Dreamcat version which is much more interesting than the arcade version. There's also CvS Pro which is an update that rebalanced the ratios (though it basically murdered the R1s and made the R3s busted) and added a Joe and Dan. It was better than CvS1 but also completely pointless since CvS2 came out maybe 3 months later, no joke.

CVS, CVS2 and SVC are hands down some of my favorite games of all time. Seeing my two favorite brands collide was a dream come true. I still hope on some sort of re-release 🥺

The intro with akuma doing raging demon with all the games he's been in shows he conquers the game he crosses over in.

I so want a svc collection that would be so cool

Would kill for Capcom vs SNK 3 to become a reality...

The first time I played Capcom vs SNL 1 was on Dreamcast and it was pirated. Those were good times.

Capcom Vs. SNK Saga will always be the greatest crossover in gaming history to me. I hope they do it again in the future.

Capcom vs. SNK Saga will always be the greatest crossover in gaming history. I truly hope they do it again in the future. Also that thumbnail is DOPE!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I had the displeasure of only playing the very bad port of Capcom vs. SNK Pro on the PS1 back in the day. I played the PS2 release of Capcom vs. SNK 2. I never played SVC Chaos since the PS2 release in the US got canceled and got an Xbox release. It definitely would be nice to see a collection with these 3 games and also SNK vs. Capcom: The Match of the Millennium.

That thumbnail is super SICK

Gran video como siempre 🤩🤗😎! Akuma es un clásico y un todo terreno

I might be weird but I loved SVC Chaos! It was just a blast to play when I was younger, as well as SvC 2!

you have no idea how much I love the music from CVS1

Loving this series!

The first Capcom vs SNK game has the coolest Akuma intro of any game. When you fight him as a secret boss, he drops down out of the sky and cuts M. Bison in half. Would’ve looked even cooler if the blood that shoots out when he does it wasn’t this censored “blood” energy stuff, but even that still looks cool. That intro is where that Shin Akuma move from CvS2 comes from, and we’ve been getting versions of it since then.

CvS2 was my first exposure to Shin Akuma. And beans, that aesthetic difference is the most terrifying secret character I had ever seen. Glass cannon sure, but I'm too busy panicking about the cannon to remember the glass.

"You fight for fame & fortune. I will grace you from heaven. The Orochi & Satsui No Hado will consume everything. No one is safe."

funny enough this boss rage was how I found max's channel so it always holds a special place in my heart

We love akuma

never played these games but it was cool to learn!

For cvs2 my favorite waky thing you can do with akuma is in c groove you can cancel level 2 supers into other specials or supers, so the uppercut special canceled into air fireball super feels so stupidly good

5:45 What is interesting is that SNK gave that Super to Takuma and Mr. Karate in KOF XIII While in Takuma it is a Desperation Move, for Mr. Karate it is a just a special move. It is very common for Capcom and SNK to copy each other's work. Or copy the work of other companies Just to give examples, Capcom look at Shen's (KOF) moves and gave these to Marisa (SF6) Capcom look at Lee's (Fighter's History) moves and gave these to Yun (SF3)

Mark of the Millennium Tournament was definitely peak Akuma as far as I am concerned.

Yeah baby!

Cvs1 pro was my return to fighting games on my psx

This is my all time favorite fighting game. I need to find a way to play again!!

Rate the Exceeds!

Akuma my Goddesses 🙏🙏🙏

I always liked the visual recoil effect that the characters had when blocking moves on this game. It was cool and unique.

SVC was the first time I encountered Akuma and I've been in love ever since

3:50 That booger tho

As a hardcore casual, CvS1 was always my favorite because of its style and charm.

"He's not a god but a demon will do." Maximilian CVS2 boss rage video

I was very attached to CVS1 because it was the first game I competed in at the age of 13. It has issues, but casually, the game has so many amazing aspects. If CVS3 came out with a CVS1 style presentation, and had CVS2 style gameplay, it would be the perfect game.

I love the presentation of CVS1! CVS1 better music and stages while CVS2 has better gameplay SVC Chaos has a much better roster A good example of quality over quantity The CVS games made me love Vice While SVC made me love Shiki and Tessa 😊🥰

CVS2 was my jam back in the day.

Hell yeah

I literally commented on the last vid, hoping you would talk about this version 😁

Reminds me the old days of boss rage also brings me memories about the little fella, your dog 😢

Nice Vid Max. The CvS Games was very strange at the time, defo good Part of Fighting Game History nonetheless tho.

Even more crossovers my goodness XD

I remember Maximilian's old CVS2 Shin Akuma road to rage videos. Not the Boss Rage video where he encountered Ultimate Rugal

every time I see CVS I think: "that's how Dragon Ball FighterZ should be." Ratio 1: base Goku, R2: Goku SSJ, R3: Goku SJJ3, R4: everything above SSJ3.

I can't believe I actually got good enough to beat CVS2 Shin Akuma every time I played him when I played this back in the day. I was SO addicted to CVS2 but not even on the competitive level, just because of its fan service alone and seeing SNK characters in that awesome Capcom style.

SVC match of the millennium is on steam too

Can you break down how super or ultra sf6 is going to affect the casual I just bought the dlc characters

Someone talks about SvC Chaos, my ptsd trigger acting: -Messatsu!!! -Sayahhhh Sayahhhhh Sayaaahhhh!!!

CvS 1 is the best fighting game yet made.

9:34 is max asking for help? is akuma in the room, he's blinking so much it must be morse code

SvC is truly an under rated gem. My friends and I get just as excited firing it up as CvS1, even more so which is crazy. If you've never tried Serious Mr Karate, you're missing out

CVS 1 & 2 were my jam at launch and in arcades. We need 3. We need 2 to make a main stage evo comeback

Shin Akuma was the definitive glass cannon when you played him... but AGAINST him... that CVS2 Boss Rage was accurate. And that explains the feel of SVC Chaos... they were in transition of being under Playmore

5:45 Shin Akuma Misogi in Capcom vs SNK 2.

I remember buying this game on the dreamcast and was super stoked for it. I'll never forget booting it up and it was fuckin SNK controls. I was so bummed out. I was like man, fuck this game.

Theres a bar-cade ive been to. And no shit the only fighting game they had was an SvC chaos cabnet.

CVS2 boss fight with Shin Akuma was the first toughest boss battles I've faced in the past. Unlocking him afterwards felt completely worth it.

In Capcom vs SNK 1 I always thought the only final bosses where Geese & Bison until I went on the internet and It showed how to get Akuma as tge boss and that wad to have 85 GPS before the boss battle against Geese or Bison. I never got the Akuma boss fight until I was in high school

We have finally reached the critical point of Akuma’s power in the fight of the millennium Capcom V SNK Crossover, Let’s go.

We need more games like cvs2.

SHIN AKUMA 😈

Crazy games

CVS2 top tier and fav!

I called shin akuma's giant strike form the sky " the waterfall!"

Svc Shin Akuma is so beginner friendly. Can use supers without spending meter. It was a pretty abuseable mechanic.

Hoping we'll get a Capcom vs SNK 3 in the future

SVC chaos needs a fan mod !

6:19 😂😂😂😂

Didn't mention what version of these games are we supposed to play, Dreamcast, PS2, Gamecube, which one is the best?

SCV Chaos typo gang here before the title fix

CvS 2 was one of my favorite fighting games of all time if not the best......

yoooo this corn spam in the comments is wild bro i mean... yeah akuma

I really hope CvS3 becomes a thing in my lifetime

For me this is the definitive akuma

SVC CHAOS had Shin Akuma as a standard final boss. CVS2 had special requirements to fight Shin Akuma heck even CVS1 had requirements for regular Akuma: both required a certain amount of Groove Points

Hey look it's shin Akuma. I like the pallette that looks like Goku, and getting wombo'd by Mai 👍

Akuma was a boss in EVERY Capcom vs SNK crossover from CVS1 to CVS2 to SVC CHAOS

Rate the the supers for SCV Chaos

Does anyone know if we will ever get CvS 2 on PS5?

The only way to really balance Shin Akuma in CVSNK2 was to give him low health although strangely enough God Rugal had good health and hit could still hit like a truck, with the groove edit and unlimited points after doing the boss battle and survival mode its possible to make a groove where Shin Akuma is lethal like a combo off his burning fireball or dp into misogi was certain death.

Was Akuma in Match of the Millennium for the NGPC?

Just played Capcom vs SNK 2. Idevided to do 2 Ratio mode arcade runs. On the first run i did Ratio 4 Akuma. I defeated the sub boss Geese, got over 1500 GPS and defeated Shin Akuma withdraw continuing. Tge next run i did Ratio 2 Shin Akuma & regular Akuma. That time i got Ultimate Rugal and defeated him withdraw continuing

I don’t even remember CvS1 only 2 🤷🏾‍♂️

Ah, SCV Chaos, my favourite. SNK Capcom Vs Chaos.
