Dude, I respect you tremendously and love your content, but please reconsider being a spokesperson for AI crap...

Hope you're doing good man.
Norimaro extra jump code: in order to get an extra jump for Norimaro, first, select Norimaro, then, at the Versus screen, press and hold WK + MP + HK, therefore you'll get 3 jumps in mid air instead 2.
I've heard about Norimaro. He's meant to be exclusive to Japanese releases of Marvel vs SF as the character's likeness is based off comedian Noritake Kinashi, whom cooperated with Capcom in the character's design. He was removed from overseas releases of the game (hence the video game logo appearing in place of his slot on the character select screen). But much of the character's game data is still intact in overseas releases of Marvel vs SF, suggesting that Capcom likely intended to make him available in overseas releases of the game yet got dummied out. This was confirmed in a recent interview with Capcom graphic artist Katsuya Akitomo, who revealed Norimaro was going to be playable in overseas releases of the game. But Marvel strongly opposed this because they didn't want to have a gag character going up against their heroes.
"Didn't want to have a gag character going up against their heroes." Yet years later in Ultimate MvC3, Phoenix Wright seemed to have been okay'd just fine. But things (and people at Marvel) were different back then, I get it.
Fun Facts, Norimaro is based on real person japanese comedian named Noriake Kinashi. When he and his crew visiting Capcom company and they show him makin new character of Marvel vs Street Fighter, the new character is him, Noriake, he was so excited that he in the game. First when Norimaro was born in beta he has no name at first, then Capcom decided to do a compition of who will give the character name and the winner was a 13 year old boy who give the name Norimaro.
Aww man that PS1 Intro brought me back lol. Also I could have sworn there was an Asia version of this game that had this character for some reason. My man is hella animated.
Norimaro would be perfect for MvC games. He's the ultimate geek who got isekai'd into his favorite comics and he ends up accidentally helping or screwing things up
Only added to the ps1 version. You can use him in other versions with a GameShark or Action Replay. The Japanese arcade versions have him playable. I think they took him out of releases in Japan because they thought only people in Japan would get it.
I have the japanese Saturn version, and you can play as Norimaru in that one. I forget if you have to unlock him or what, it's been years since i hooked it up.
In the M.A.M.E arcade version you can still play Norimaro but using cheats also his bases on a real Japanese comedian Noritake Kinashi he even did the motion capture for the character movement.
Apart from being a gag character, Norimaro also was intended to be a handicapped character given the disadvantage on his stats and fighting style. Especially if you managed to complete the arcade run on highest difficulty also able to pass secret characters stage by only using him pairing with Dan. That is the best achievement to be unlocked. Also, this is the behind the scene of that character development. th-cam.com/video/ED0WZTtcKIs/w-d-xo.html
He was present in the SEGA Saturn (import) version. Fun fact: there was a proposal to give Norimaro a move... Where you put both hands together with the index fingers pointing upward, and you stick them up the backside of your victim. Capcom refused to put this in the game because they didn't want such things done to their characters.
Its called a Kancho attack, a childish prank that is popular in 80-90's japan, in fighting games...Faust's butt poke super is basically this, tho most people probably saw this in Naruto the most, it was one of Kakashi's repertoire of moves in the early games
a local mom and pop donut shop had a Japanese arcade cabinet of this game with Norimaro unlocked. he was my FAVORITE fighter since lol really good times. loved everything about this dude lol
I'm glad you finally covered this guy! I had the japanese MvsSF and always played this dude. a lot of love definitely got put into this goofy guy. I would pause to see all the memories.
So for those of you who are wondering what was the origin of Norimaro. He was guest character created just for this game only and was created by Japanese comedian, Noritake Kinashi, who based his likeness on Norimaro. Kinashi collaborated with Capcom to have this character playable in the then-latest fighting game on Capcom’s development schedule which was this game. However, he is only playable in Japanese versions of the game. He wasn’t playable outside of Japanese because of licensing issues. There has been scrapped data in the game’s code that shows he was intended to be playable outside of Japan with his Hyper Combos translated into English.
There are several Secret characters in Marvel Super Heroes vs Street Fighter: 1. Cyber Akuma obviously 2. Dark Sakura 3. Mecha Zangief 4. Armored Spiderman 5. Mephisto 6. U.S. Agent 7. Shadow Charlie
I've heard of him and his backstory, but I didn't own a gameshark so never actually got to play as him. I recently imported a Saturn though so MVSF is definitely on my wishlist, would be fun to try him out he looks ridiculous!
@@HerpThatDerp1 for fighting games Saturn destroys the PS1. With the 4mb ram carts. Saturn had the best home ports of Darkstalkers 3, XvsSF and SFA3. 99.9% arcade perfect.
Norimaru is playable on the japanese arcade and japanese ps1 version as well as the Sega Saturn version and is locked out of the over seas versions of the game.
I bet you don't know Norimaro but I do. I did some research of this secret "joke" character(check The Fighters Generation), and he really is a jank fighter with ridiculous expressions whatsoever. By the way, he's only exclusive in Japan.
2:51 that s called the double super combo by pressing high kick and punch at the same time ! you gotta have at least 2 bars and the name of this super double is combination of the two supers ! NB more than 26 years of fighting games ! i always laugh when i write NB so funny
On the Saturn version import he can be selected, no codes needed. Also, when me any friends got together to play against each other i would pick him to annoy the hell out them and beat them every time. It was infuriating to them! 😂😅😊 fun times!!!
Ah, Japanese Comedian, what a great character for Street Fighter Vs Marvel. Justin please don't take AI art sponsors. I get it, the bag is important, but you really shouldn't support these types of things.
"Norimaro appears in all Japanese versions of the game, but in the Arcade original, he's disabled if the Arcade's fee is set to 2 or more coins to play. " not just ps1 exclusive :o
This game MSH Vs SF PS1 version made me become Marvel Vs capcom Fan in 1998.🙌🏼🔥 and Fan of marvel characters like hulk,wolverine,Spider-Man and Omega Red. Only in the Japanese version Norimaro is an original character created by capcom and a Japanese comedian named Noritake Kinashi who also voiced Norimaro in the game,Norimaro also is a fan of Chun-Li.
I absolutely don't feel good about the PSX version for reasons people know. I didn't know you could do DHC with the one character in it, though! I almost swear he's exclusive to Japan, though; that bottom square just has the game logo for us.
You should really boot up the Saturn version instead. It's arcade perfect (outside of the slightly different resolution), with actual tag teams. I've had the Saturn port since it's release and it (and Norimaro) is fantastic!
Norimaru is in the arcade version of the game as well. But not in the US version. I have a lot of CPS2 stuff so if you don't use a Japanese "A" board then he will not be selectable.
I got my first truancy ticket because of this game and this character lol the liquor store a block away from school had it and i was handing ass whoopings until about 9 am where the coos showed up to take me to school lol
Norimaru looks like my new favorite character. Wonder looks like it could be fun, but calling that "art" is a stretch. If it is algorithmically generated, I don't consider it true art. It's art like. Like fake food they make to look good in a commercial but it's not real food.

No only in us version ??

9:07 cracked me up, nice job mr. editor
Norimaru is from the JP version
Yup
I've heard of him and his backstory, but I didn't own a gameshark so never actually got to play as him. I recently imported a Saturn though so MVSF is definitely on my wishlist, would be fun to try him out he looks ridiculous!
He was in my european version of MSH VS SF actually.
didn't know he was a secret character, just someone I had unlocked.
Saturn > PS1 version
I'm mad this didn't touch dc like marvel vs Capcom 1
I'm a firm believer that MvC 1 would have run Arcade perfectly on Saturn as well as MSHVSF AND XVSF...
@@DARKONE-E.I.C.O.S.A.T.isn't Saturn a nightmare since it was given a last minute second cpu? I know psx sotn > Saturn sotn.

Norimaru is playable on the japanese arcade and japanese ps1 version as well as the Sega Saturn version and is locked out of the over seas versions of the game.
He is in the much better Saturn version as well.
The fact that Norimaro is going to be in international versions of the game in the Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection is a miracle.

By the way, he's only exclusive in Japan.
I miss playing this on the Saturn. ULTIMATE GRAND CHAMPION JUMP! Wait... this ain't the Saturn version, it's the JP PSX version!
He was exclusive to the Japanese version only.. But he's just been announced for the upcoming compilation next week too!
you have to use a character modifier code to get him in the american version of marvel super heroes vs street fighter ps1! I remember doing that ll
Ai leads to Sky Net! 😅
Doesn't Norimaro have another Super where he shoots a stream of blood from his nose after thinking about Chun-li or something?
Mans posing for that photo like crazy
2:51 that s called the double super combo by pressing high kick and punch at the same time ! you gotta have at least 2 bars and the name of this super double is combination of the two supers ! NB more than 26 years of fighting games ! i always laugh when i write NB so funny
That PS1 Startup music feels so good!
*Diddy Kong got nothing on me* - Justin Wong 2023
i wonder what shuma gorath played expertly looks like....maybe some kickass combo followed by chaos magic?
On the Saturn version import he can be selected, no codes needed.
Also, when me any friends got together to play against each other i would pick him to annoy the hell out them and beat them every time. It was infuriating to them! 😂😅😊 fun times!!!
Norimaro: RANDOM BALLSHIT GO!
Actually own this on mame and set the cpu to have him ,needless to say akuma sent him packing lol
I never expect this day gonna reach, J Wong using Norimaro (Exclusive in the Japanesse version and the Hack version in Fightcade).
This is on ps1
still one of the greatest fighting games ever
7:31 no hes not, ive seen him in the arcades. Cmon you played in the 90s how could you not seen him!?
We actually have this arcade version in the Philippines and we have no idea who is he so we just call him as the "Pervert" because he looks weird. 🤣
Strangest Capcom hidden character ever 😂
He isn't really a Capcom character, Capcom just merely collaborated with the guy Norimaro is based on.
@@dogg-pawsSo he’s one of the earliest known guest characters?
he´s got like 3 supers, the other one is DP+ 2Punches.
Norimaru was in the arcade version as well.
Funny. I recently beat the game with him and Dan. Seems like the perfect pairing there. 😄
Msvsf content for life!
Ah, Japanese Comedian, what a great character for Street Fighter Vs Marvel.
Justin please don't take AI art sponsors. I get it, the bag is important, but you really shouldn't support these types of things.
Norimaro should have been put in Capcom fight jam or Capcom vs SNK 2 or SVC chaos
This was cool 🔥🔥
played the sega saturn venation all time, pluss has the tag team
Should have played the import Saturn version of this game. It has Norimaro and is almost indistinguishable from the arcade version
Imagine norimarō un Disney+ being a loki villain
2:44 *Hyper Stong Barrage X*
He wasnt in the arcade version back home though
* I remember we have him on Japan version arcades he's a troll 😅😂
So Justin found out about mech gouki/cyber akuma. Probably the cheapest boss besides shin akuma from cvs2
"Norimaro appears in all Japanese versions of the game, but in the Arcade original, he's disabled if the Arcade's fee is set to 2 or more coins to play. " not just ps1 exclusive :o
Wow I've never seen this character before this is definitely new thanks for sharing this Justin
Imagine someone making him a custom in Street Fighter 6
This game MSH Vs SF PS1 version made me become Marvel Vs capcom Fan in 1998.🙌🏼🔥 and Fan of marvel characters like hulk,wolverine,Spider-Man and Omega Red.

PS1 still has the best start up screen music.
We need Norimaru vs Dan!
Their comedic battle will be Legendary!!! 🤣
Not what I was hoping for, but a step in the right direction. Still hoping for Norimaro/Sakura. (You're playing the JP PS1 version).
I always thought he was a parody of Akiman
I got my first truancy ticket because of this game and this character lol the liquor store a block away from school had it and i was handing ass whoopings until about 9 am where the coos showed up to take me to school lol
Isn't he the P.P.A.P guy? If so he should have that as a super, lol.
This is the first time in your videos it felt staged not knowing the character😂
Big love tho👍
Believe it or not the secret character in this game , his name is Marvel 😁
Norimaru should actually 4 super , One attack involved used car attack
His chip damage is OD! it's like he's a better dan lol
This game is legit.😊
The infamous norimaro! A otaku He's actually based off a real Japanese person. He's not in the american version
Just hangin around
Just play the japanese version of MvST and you will be able to tag team him.
8:08 YEET!!
