RETROREVIVAL
DREAMCAST 2000 SNK
I’ve recently been stockpiling a lot of multiplayer Switch
games, since I am catching up with a bunch of my old
university housemates. We all played games a lot, and our
multiplayer sessions could get heated – our Mario Kart Wii games
could reportedly be heard from down the street, and I remember
Pro Evo causing more than one person to storm off. I even remember one of the
guys getting punched in the balls for defeating his girlfriend at Dead Or Alive 2.
Another guy in our house was particularly stubborn and hot-headed. He was
the sort of guy who’d try to chop an onion with one broken arm, get pissed off
because it’d roll out from under the knife, but still refuse to let anyone help him.
One night, we were playing The King Of Fighters 99: Evolution together,
and I beat his entire team with King. I did the same in the rematch.
After a couple more games, that was it – nobody was putting down
a controller until he’d beaten King. She had to be in my team, and
she had to be first out.
He was unhappy when I hit ten victories. He was downright
angry at 20, and it was frankly uncomfortable at 30. Finally, as
I was attempting my 40th straight 3-0 sweep, he managed
to not only beat King but my entire team, bringing the
score to 39-1. I was too relieved to tell him the random
character select had given him the final boss. So I might
just leave BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle at home...IT FEELS GOOD TO BE KING
