I don't think we'll ever get anything as gorgeous as KOF XIII again.

No matter which KOF it is, I'm always impressed by how huge the rosters are. And this is a formerly annual series.

Honestly feel that XIII had the best character select screen. The boxes were big enough to where it was very visible and clear what character was in each box (without looking at the character art on the side) and they added an idle sprite animation for each character as well as character art

I think 2000 has by far the best portraits.

kof 2002 unlimited match have the best select screen in my opinion and it's music is awesome

7:58 Kula teamed with Shingo and Saisyu... that's randomly unexpected...

King of Fighters 2001: Big Nose Edition

2000’s character selection has the Best 2d art work that Mary is godness.

13:05 Select your memba!

KOF XIII and 2002UM are the best KOF games ever made. Period.

KOF 99 ..... best gameplay, best boss, best music

2001 select screen used to be my favourite back in the day. The white background with big enough and horizontally spread out icons of the characters looked good. Also when you hover over a character the big character art looks amazing. This mixed with the addicting cursor movement sound that they added in back in 2000 was everything for me lol (it gets annoying when you spam it by moving the cursor non-stop bit if you don't then I think it sounds amazing.). This might be the reason why XIII's select screen looks so damn good too. They put a black background instead of a white one and added idle character sprites while keeping the big enough spread out icons and the big beautiful character arts.

KOF 2002 WILL BE ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS MEXICO/LATIN AMERICA.

Whoa! Character select screen in fighting games were always one of my favorite part of any fighting game, and The K.O.F series always had one of the best character select ever. There are more King of Fighters games than I could imagine (especially in Japan where it is king.) King of Fighters 2000 (2D) and Maximum Impact Regulation A (3D) had the best character select screens ever. This video is amazing! I love it!!

That Neowave rap was tight

KOF, the only videogame series i know, that changes it's artstyle with every new installment.

In the KOF2003 screen, it looks like they've used the same face on Kyo's and Mai's selection portraits...

I wonder what the KOF15 character select screen will look like..

Wow some KOF games have characters I‘ve never seen before.

2000 was always the coolest for me

KOF 94 - 97: Orochi Saga KOF 99 - 2001: NESTS Saga KOF 2003 - XIII: Ash Saga Did I get it right?

2000 and 2002 UM have best Select Screen music

to me the best one it’s the 2001 screen, the images of the characters are so good, the soundtrack is great, all that game is such an art piece.

No sé ustedes pero amo el select de personajes del KOF 2001 3:10, es una obra de arte

still waiting for capcom vs snk3

11:03 The King of fighters 2002 that was the game that me and my daddy played together 😔❤️

I liked that you passed character by character to show the select screen.

2000 have the best portrait style by far!

The best fighting game series ever made

kof 2001 was my first kof game i played, ive always been a fan since

In this order XI, XIII and 2002 UM definitely have the best looking ones and music also. Didn't get to play neowave but the select screen looked nice to.

KOF: Regulation A. Omg I love that one!

Holy crap there's so many King of Fighters games.

KOF 99 has the best theme music of them all: Momentum, energy, charge

KOF XIII visuals in general was so amazing. Seeing the SDMs and Neo Max got you so hype. To this day, I'll never grow tired of seeing Nest Kyo's Neo Max😊

The Japan only game Quiz KOF features Haohmaru, Ryo Sakazaki, Terry Bogard, Mai Shiranui, Robert Garcia, and Nakoruru. Takuma Sakazaki is an unlockable character in that game. Yuri Sakazaki is a damsel in distress in this game. KOF XIV is Nakoruru's first canon appearance.

gotta give it up to those kof 2001 portraits

My favorites are : 1. KOF XIII 2. KOF 2002 (with the best music ever)

8:25 King of Fighters :Maximum Impact Reculation is one of My favourite Games in My Life 💔

I'd say the first Maximum Impact has my favorite select screen music. Neowave and 13 are tied for second

XI got the best UI design. Love it so much.

Kof 2002 UM has such an edgy feel with its OST and character art style. I love it

XI had the best UI for kof select screens for sure.

I love the fact Rock Howard is in KOF XIV. He’s my favourite SNK Character of all time. Go for it rock!!! However, my biggest gripe with KOF XIV is the lack of “hidden” characters. Why couldn’t Antonov and Verse be not visible or unlockable after you beat the game?

Fatal fury and the King of fighters evolution of select screen (1991-2019)

Love the music of neowave

Espectacular video,una parte de mi infancia y adolescencia resumida :DD

❤️

Very good ! Respect !

4.- KOFXIV - 58 Characters (With DLCs) 3.- KOF98UM - 63 Characters (With all Ex, Boss and Orochi Mode) 2.- KOF2002UM - 66 Characters (With all Ex, Boss and Orochi Mode) 1.- KOF2000 - 40 Characters, 96 Strikers (With all Boss, Hidden and Maniac Strikes

3:10 la mejor pantalla de select de KOF, además los retratos de los personajes están muy bien diseñados y son una belleza

FUN FACT:Kyo has been in every game Literally

95' nostalgia pura

I can't remember but I once played a LOT game at an arcade machine and it's like every ultimate move was instantly available it was fun

I like them all, but my favorite is 99, the very rhythmic loop music and the faces of the characters when you pass the course, I love that anime artistic style

10:02 Fio!!! Why don't they ever put Metal Slug characters in these games, I don't get.

You forgot the DC versions of '98 and '99; also, 2001 features a massive design overhaul in the PS2 version that I feel worth mentioning.

KOF 2001 is pretty strong. Also I believe that at least one of these is in the wrong order. Regulation A comes after 2006. But still very good video.

That 98' screen is actually from Slugfest, not Ultimate Match, which actually improved that select theme and had all of the Orochi Saga bosses.

0:52 best kof

@ 1:29 that's the screen for kof98 dream match/ the slugfest. Ultimate Match refers to the later one that came out in 2004 I believe.

I think 99, Neowave, 2002 UM and XIII are my favourites, XI would've been my number 1 if it didn't have off-screen selections and u could see them all

It's weird knowing that a game I used to play all the time came out in 1994

KOF XII's select screen looks like MvC1's character select screen

i miss KOF 2002💜

7:20 - The KOF Neowave select track reminded me of the select music in Cool Boarders 2(think it was called Shake it off)

ネオジオポケットの作品やアドバンスの作品まであるの嬉しい

99

So far, MI and MI 2 has the Tekken feels.

Honestly I loved all of them so I can't choose which is the best character select screen. I liked 98, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, neon blood, XI, and XIII

King of Fighters was the first Madden/2k/COD of fighting games.

Tengo la coleccion desde 94 a 2003. y el XIV. pero no sabía de todas las demás versiones hasta que vi este video. Ahora solo debo descargar las que me faltan.

We need more Fio in KOF~♡

i always thought ryos derp face on 98 was pretty funny

KoF 2002, 94 and 98 were the ones I played the most.

Guest Characters Terry Bogard (Fatal Fury) Leona (Metal Slug) Athena (Pshyco Soldier) Mai (Fatal Fury) Yuri Sakazaki (Art Of Fighters)

I have so much mixed feelings about the 2001 art

oh shoot I got metal slug vibes when leona, Ralf and clark showup

98 is the best All moroccans have good memories with it

0:33 KOF 96 the BEST select screen, design, and music..EVER!!!

Kof99

Man, the character designs really range from like 10s to negative 5s.

I really like the artstyle of Kof 2001 at least the ps2 version

Minha velha infância ❤️😍

do the bloody roar series

Damn kof neowave's music was actually pretty good Even though I didn't play it.

in celebration of Geese it would be cool if you did more SNK evolution

Regulation A Is the update of MI2, not MI.

2001 HAS the best music

Moe ,Jun & a few others should make a return. I used play neo blood &kof99 alot till maximum impact. Kof really should bring the fighter history crew into kof

They need to bring back kof 99 dream match for digital consoles. That was my favorite one.

For me .. KOF 2000 ARE THE BEST !!!!!! SELECT SCREEN - 4/5 star BGM - 10000/5 STAR

Waiting for KOF XV Rugal Krizalid Igniz Zero Clone Zero Goenitz Geese Krauser Mr.Big Orochi I WANNA SEE ALL OF THESE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

my favourite is 2000, the character art is on point

7:30 The roster is same as kof 2002, but they have saisyu, kula and shingo in 1 team and without kim kahpwan for 1 time in kof historg

99 siempre fue el kof que más me gustó

96 al 2002, las mejores kof.

Kof 99 select screen was the best...! All characters had real faces
