So Athena on the Famicom, the game that this single was released with as a promotional item, might have been garbage, but the song is an awesome example of 1980s anime-style JPOP, and is now fully subtitled in English for your gaijin enjoyment :D
NintendoComplete Thanks, for the vid, and in HD too. As for Athena NES, I've only got to the world of ice, but I wouldn't call the game bad. Of course if you still wanna call it bad, just look up Action 52, The Ooze. PS- why U no add Bob cut Athena from '99? That's her best style!
Ryoko Haha I totally forgot about that one, to be honest :) Oh and trust me, I know the pain of the Action 52 ;) I think my playthrough of all of the A52 games was the first one (I don't know if it's still the only one) on TH-cam. The pain I suffered in making that.... lmao. Nightmares. And thanks! You should see it in not HD. TH-cam screws it up pretty badly. It's amazing how many times the number of pixels are needed to kinda simulate an original 320x240 image on a crt. My original 4K render was absurdly huge, like 64gigs :0
The Japanese lyrics make more sense for whom Athena is, the US version's theme for Psycho Soldier....it's like WTF is the girl singing about? Athena's name is magic? The girls a psychic, not a magician.
Yeah, or even another installment (or reboot) to her game. Nowadays she's just a playable character in the SNK fighting games. (and also makes a cameo in the Terry DLC in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)
I remember coming across The Arcade Game in the late 80's. I recall coming across maybe 1 arcade that had it so it was crazy rare. Who knew that I knew Athena before King of Fighters, but didn't remember at the time. Can you believe THAT 😳?

There was actually a funny in-joke in the Japanese version of Capcom vs SNK where if Bison and Athena are on a team together, they'll get in an argument about whether Psycho Power is Good or Evil...
It's a Retroarch shader. Pretty damned impressive, isn't it? The shaders can do some crazy stuff - shaders are also how I make my Game Boy videos look like a real Game Boy.
@@NintendoComplete On OpenEmu, the shader is CRT Geom or CRT Geom Royale. I was playing Darkstalkers 2 using the CRT Geom Royale shader and its identical to your video's gameplay of '94
An amazing feat back in the day to have a clear and crisp human voice coming out from a videogame back then.
This was a Cassette version

2 years from the future: The song was just remixed for Super Smash Bros. by Yuzo Koshiro.
@@NintendoCompletei love Athena theme song
If someone told me that this song is from Jackie Chan's old films, I would believe it.
What a marvelous little tune this song is! Next time I play any of the KOF games, I'll definitely be checking out Athena and her pals.
this is in Smash now. Noice

The girls a psychic, not a magician.
Bruh it’s the same voice actor
@@GameXenoZero64 ...What does that have to do with his point? Only an idiot would think that was relevant to lyric comparison.
And shes a magical girl too my man chill
SNK hizo historia con esta obra de arte
This is the best thing I have ever heard in my life.
Haha this is fantastic. 11/10.
Same... Oh wait...
This song has an 80's vibe
1987 was its release year
Cause it is!😂
what a beautiful song. we need something like this now.
Well, do I have news for you!
Amo Este Tema ^_^
I swear there is only one playthru on all of youtube with the actual Japanese theme. Nice vid bro!
Thanks!
Athena should have had an 80's anime series
Yeah, or even another installment (or reboot) to her game.
Nowadays she's just a playable character in the SNK fighting games.
(and also makes a cameo in the Terry DLC in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)
Athena have Anime. Is call Saint Seiya
Yeah... As that drama from the early 2000s is the only series she has to her name, but then again...
Great work. Thank you for this.
This is so well made! Great Job!
Thanks! :)
Athena! Sou fã! Desde os anos 90 quando eu jogava nos fliperamas!

Actually, for its time that looks really good. Impressive.
Thanks for this.
This was a song from my best cool game ever.

This song hittin hard
Athena:the daughter of M.Bison
No.

EVERY ANIME POP IDOL REMINDS ME OF FREAKING LIN MINMEY!! OMG!!!
I ❤️ Ath3na and the Arcade version! King of Fighters Fan since the 90's. Good old Time!
thank yu so much!!
FAIYAA, FAIYAA!
Soon™
Killer soundtrack! SNK should've re-dubbed and brought it to the Western along with NES cartridge. Would've saved it from becoming total dump.
sensacional kkkkk
NintendoComplete,continue in the same cycle of songs ,just fine.
best
This song is in smash. Wtf.
Athena herself is in Smash.
Technically.
In the background of Terry's stage.
When she feels like it.
There is also English version of this song, but...its bad :)
metalcoola Yeah it is :) but it only was in-game. I don't think it ever got the high-quality recording release like this version did
My main gripe with that version is that it alters the rhythm during the refrain.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: Hold my beer.
@@NintendoComplete Smash Ultimate would like to have a word for you
@@SymboliNegative That comment is from 2 years ago. He was not wrong.
This sounds like a 90s anime theme
thx！
Ma waifu 😘❤️
🔥
Anyone has this in lossless FLAC, please?
Right here, friend app.box.com/s/nncrl2rl800nrqe4oal5qm8l2xhbv4uv
Is that an actual C.R.T or a C.R.T filter on an emulator? I read the description, but it still feels like a real monitor...

@@NintendoComplete
In that case it has to be the 'CRT Royale', right?
@@marioe.4400 I don't remember specifically but that is a good one

Lain sings very well :)
Different Kaori Shimizu, sorry
Kof 94' is the OG Smash Bros
SMASH!
:/
살개가 좋아해
I never heard if that first game before
Rico 90 Psycho Soldier or Athena? I linked Athena's playthrough in the card links!
Sheesh, so the English version was just a complete rewrite 😂😂
So this game is it story snk heroine girl belong girl storyteller XD
Psycho beam? What is this, Jekyll and Hyde for NES?!
Smash bros brought me here
:/
No footage of Athena/Asina in Crystalis? :(
牛逼
사이코쫄쟈
It's SAIKO, not SAIKYO.
Yup, I realized that almost as soon as I had published the video. Oops.
Tubewings SAIKO BOORU!
@@FernandoPLAYERx Probably preferable to SAIKO BOORUZU!
Está canción es la mamada Athena ❤
after ive seen this video made me realize how awsome Athena really is 🥲
