Mikado Arcade’s Street Fighter Carnival 12 is a multi-game tournament series designed to promote high-level gameplay in a wide variety of legacy FGC titles. We’re well into a month of arcade battles and the action isn’t slowing down — here’s two more VODs, featuring Samurai Shodown II and The Fallen Angels!
It’s almost guaranteed that everyone reading this will be familiar with SamShoII…
…but you may be less familiar with Psikyo’s The Fallen Angels. Better known for their world class shmup titles, Psikyo had a very brief run in the fighting game market with this game and an odd, okizeme-less martial arts fighter Battle K-Road. It’s a shame we didn’t get to see how far potential sequels could take The Fallen Angels — Some balance issues aside, it’s a gorgeous game with great flair and an emphasis on close range pressure. It is worth noting that the developers of this game largely moved on to work other fighting games for another company — SNK Playmore.
You can follow the action of SFC12 by subscribing to Mikado’s official YouTube channel. For the night owls in the US, you can even try to catch them when they livestream.
