The Heroines strut their stuff in these combo videos for SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy from Combonauts and Dark Chaotix
Content creators show off what the Heroines can do.
Amid the game’s general weirdness and smothering fan service, it was soon discovered that SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy has a fairly robust combo system, enabling some impressive displays of combo virtuosity.
Combonauts is naturally right in on that, as can bee seen in these mind-boggling sequences for Mai Shiranui and Zarina.
Dark Chaotix has been working on this game as well, as evidenced in these videos showing off what Shermie, Terry, and Leona are capable of in their new setting.
We’re sure to see more of these in the future, especially as the game’s first DLC Heroine Thief Arthur is now available.

Nintendo chooses not to renew its trademark for Custom Robo
Nintendo’s robotic build ‘n’ battle series appears to be mothballed.
For fans of Nintendo’s own answer to VIRTUAL-ON, the Custom Robo games, there’s some bad news. Nintendo has apparently opted not to renew their trademark for “Custom Robo”, which pretty much ensures that Nintendo is done with the series, at least under that name.
Nintendo’s Custom Robo franchise spanned a number of games in Japan, but only saw two official releases in North America: Custom Robo (“Custom Robo: Battle Revolution” in Japan) for the GameCube, and Custom Robo Arena for the Nintendo DS. As part of the functional family of robot-piloting arena fighters, players customized their mechs with special abilities and took them into the fight in 3D battlegrounds.
While we can now discount seeing a new title in this series for the Switch — and probably no re-releases, either — we may see the series return in another form, only time will tell. It also calls into question whether the “Ray-Mk. III” mech Assist Trophy will be a part of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate — something we’ll have to watch for in December.

Hayate EIN shares Astaroth, Talim gameplay preview for SoulCalibur VI
Hayate EIN, French SoulCalibur pro and YouTuber, has been incredibly gracious the past few days. In a continuing effort to share as much SoulCalibur VI info as he can, he’s following up yesterday’s Final Build preview with some short footage of his first try-outs with newly added characters Talim and Astaroth.
One of the most surprising changes Astaroth has is a new armored, slow command grab — certainly a different take on the way he worked before, if this is meant to replace his old command grabs.
Talim’s 33A seems to be capable of dominating close range again, and her new wind blast from her auto-dodge does an absurd amount of damage.
