  • I read your comments and uhh... What IS this game!? I try out the arcade mode for Waku Waku 7 for the Neo Geo MVS system and this game was so obscure, but interesting! What do you guys think of this game?

    Waku Waku 7 is a fairly simple but cool game, for people that doesn't know characters in this game are pretty much parodys of other popular character or thropes from the time, Mauru is an obvious reference to Totoro for example haha
    This game can be played in Fightcade 2 with a fairly active community. There's good resources like a complete wiki, training mode and bi weekly tournaments haha

      I´d actually recommend the PS2 version of Waku Waku 7 (even tho it´s a japan only game) because it has an arranged soundtrack different from the Saturn release, and also you get an extra game.

    Everyone in this game has an unblockable Level 3-esque move, as they do a whole lot of damage (it even says "Warning!" on the screen). The drawback it's that they have pretty long startups and can be interrupted. But the final boss just gives the middle finger to such rules, as his super comes out instantly and can't be interrupted (while still being unblockable!), as it has armor (it's that rolling super move he did a few times)
    Tesse is more like a zoner, but her gimmick it's that her item throw move gets more and more powerful as long as she holds it. The EX version of said move can get pretty ridiculous if you let her hold it fully, since it becomes chaos. And her Level 3 is pretty cool

    The secret to this game is spam the ex moves and the gold power up mode as meter builds crazy fast.
    In gold mode you do inflict much more damage AND also take much less damage, and gold burst works great as an anti air or reversal. But you want to not whiff it or you can get punished by a good player.
    At higher level turns more into a meter resource management game where there’s lots of far distance zoning with the EX projectiles mixed with rush down with the gold power up mode, and it revolves around trying to use resources and gold burst to your advantage
