KOF 95's ARCADE MODE IS JUST STUPID 

Fun fact: the guys who designed the AI for SNK bosses have their own circle of hell reserved just for them!

JWong: I'm a Capcom fighting god! SNK: That's cute.

This is such a beautiful game, and full of details. One little detail found in Mai's stage is that the guy sitting in the middle starts playing his armonica when the armonica part comes up. It doesn't add anything to the gameplay, but it sure is an interesting addition to the game.

"That did so much damage" KoF 95 in a nutshell.

Oh no!!! The King of Fighters '95!!! Here in Latin America that RUGAL is Hated big time!

95 was awesome! The arranged soundtrack is pretty amazing, and the voices werent as compressed as later entries.. so lots of emotion from the characters and their move shoutouts (and beefy hit sounds).. Iori's laugh in this is iconic, whereas later entries it fell rather flat. Have to give shoutouts to the intro sonic air supply edit though that was hot. So many funny cheap things in this game :D brings back some good arcade memories

Appreciate you suffering for our entertainment. Go Justin!

Omega Rugal with the 2 hit KOs. Now try level 8 and see if it even lets you play, or your character just collapses as soon as the fight starts.

That failure montage reminded me of Edge of Tomorrow: "On Your Feet, Maggot!"

FUN FACT: The "95" in KOF '95 doesn't refer to the year it released, but instead the percent of damage you can do in a short combo Seriously though, the damage in this game is absurd

Rugal literally exploded from a time out

"I hate the SNK computer”. Me too Justin, me too. Fighting SNK AI especially the bosses is like an endurance test of how long you can hold up not to get angry and smash your controller 😂

I really like the death animation in this game, especially how the background changes and everything fades away.

That end part with the character deaths had me rolling. So fucking funny!

I'm having flashbacks of losing to Rugal in the arcades.

Do you dare fight Goenitz, Justin? I'd enjoy watching that

You won like a pro, without tricking the Ai into doing what is programmed to do after each hit and punishing it, you played an SNK game and reacted to a lot of things. You are amazing man. That's why you're the best in the business

Yes, of course i love this type of content, more SNK is always welcome. Ah, KOF 95, i love the production values, but my God the Arcade mode is so dumb, also i heard the damage was really messed up on this one, even on 1v1 you could end a round with 2 combos. Anyway i still remember one of my proudest moments in this franchise, when i managed to beat this game with a single coin. Is nothing but an endurance of exploits, remembering patterns for each character and even some luck. I also remember Saisyu being very easy to defeat, there was an exploit of course, but you could almost guarantee the win against him on the first round, i remember i used Joe against him (i used the FF team), Terry was essential in the Rugal match since for some reason, you could bait him into charge mode so you could land an easy combo. Also and again for some reason, he always tried to dash whenever you did a Power Geyser or with Joe an Screw Upper at a certain distance and if that failed, Andy could lame him out with fireball. Sadly, I could never beat this game with other teams.

This makes me feel less bad about how hard I used to find KOF AI 🤣 Would definitely be interested in seeing you do more KOF arcade mode runs 🙂 Goenitz, Orochi, Krizalid, Zero, lovable Igniz...so many cheap bosses 🤣🤣

That was really fun to see you struggle against busted CPUs. I was laughing hard at the game over sound

6:41 well different combos vary on damage, u know that JW 6:54 I think Goro used here a feature unique to KOF 95: you can actually "counter" any attack when you have Max pow with a special move (just like alpha counter in SFA, except you dont lose pow meter). In this case Goro countered with his command grab, cutting any distance since Kyo´s attack reached his guard hence he was able to pull off the counter. 7:04 Benimaru made more damage because it was a C+D attack against Iori´s normal. C+D (also called "power attacks") knocks the opponent down, as you can see Iori was knocked while Beni landed on his feet.

If you ever do a marathon stream, you gotta try to go through a whole series' arcade mode on a single life

I like the whole notion of your team standing in the background. Why the hell did they remove that?

I remember spending most of my school meal allowance beating this game in the arcade, with my team Terry, Ryo, Robert. I remember only a few touches the KOF 95 & Samurai Showdown Amakusas Revenge machine. Older players keep telling me these 2 games are a cheat but I enjoyed as those 2 are my favorite.

Your editor putting all those deaths at the end. Great.

NICEEE!!!! Love the KOF 90's era! specially 98, thats a blast!

YEEEEEEEEES THANK YOU JUSTIN, I hope you do an arcade playthrough of all kof games since we are getting kof 15 soon! that would be so awesome ngl i wanna see how you are gonna manage to beat the unfair bosses lol

More SNK! Try Art of Fighting 2, every opponent is like a final boss.

Lmaooooooooo bruh those screams had me crying.

I didn’t notice how funny the death screech was until you said something 😭😭 12:18 baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

The reason I love watching you play these is that it is confirmation from my childhood that the computers were cheating. 20 Game Overs from Saisyu and Rugal. I feel you man, I feel you.

Even Justin Wong can struggle against the infamous KOF bosses! (he’s human after all)

KOF 95: The King of Damage

this game is an audio visual masterpiece. especially with the CD console soundtrack. with a few gameplay tweaks it could have been a top 3 all time game. p.s. it doesn't count if you use team edit. try again with an official team :P

I really enjoyed that Ryo death montage, that EAAAAAAAA😩, again and again def made me laugh.

This was so fun to watch :D More SNK game playthroughs would be awesome!

I remember never finished this game in arcade. Just do it years later on Neogeo. Plus there were many fistfights over this game at arcade in my region (I think it was because you can lame opponent out with full-meter absurd damage.) so I prefered to sit at the corner and play SFA quietly.

Welcome to snk boss syndrome Justin deal with it with all cheap bosses 😈

I would love it if you went through the entire KOF series like this. I really enjoyed this and laughed my ass off at your frustration lol

Gotta admit that was pretty dope. Looking forward to seeing more playthroughs.

KOF "That did mad damage" 95

SNK was definitely on a mission to make "CHALLENGING" games. Gotta use the cheese.

Amazing!!!!! This is gold! Omega Rugal one of the Hardest bosses from KOF series to beat. I had trouble with Orochi kof97 and Igniz kof2001. :D but sooo fun!!!! Thank you for picking up on the kof series! Hope to see you around kof 15!

lol that was so fun to watch I can't even emphasize it enough, the whole "Yaaaah" thing had me rolling on the floor in tears🤣 Breakers /Breakers revenge has one of those hell sent Bosses , a very fun game

Yes, The king of fighters still hard to defeat and complete.

I like how family friendly you content is. (no naughty words) Liked and subscribed. Thanks to SNK for their great games!

Enjoyed the vid! Love to see more classic KOF runs.

If Rugal never took half your life with the Genocide Cutter, you've never played kof 95. xD The damage you do (and receive I think) is bigger when your Power is maximum. Also, when your life at the end is titillating you do more damage. This game is brutal. Now try to end it with pre stablished china team to get that special ending credits.

I swear I remember some of these auto-losing you if the timer ran out against the last boss, regardless of who was ahead...

Last Blade 2 on highest difficulty boss AI is insane.

That was great, loved it. I have so many memories of trying to get through the arcade modes of games on neoragex back in the day... Personally, I would love to see you take on SamSho IV, the boss of that one was always a nightmare in a game I otherwise loved.

Wow, nice! Literally on the last fight I was saying: "Just back off, Justin, let the time be your ally", good work man!

I never knew teammates could jump in and stop grabs. Really cool

Lmao, do KoF '96, Goenitz is a living Hell

I love this type of content! Please do more King of Fighters arcade runs! Especially with the rage with all the cheap and overly harsh and hard bosses! I recommend King of Fighters XI or XIII for the bosses they contain! Thank you so much for posting SNK content and I hope to see more in the future!

This was amazing! Your editor did a great job, too!

Noti gang. Can't wait for kof 2002 um

95! Classic!!! This game takes quarters and if I remember correctly, was actually designed to do so. J you should give the recent Million Arthur a try. I think you'd enjoy it. Also KOF 11 boss Magaki is a problem.

Best part is the dying cut scene 🤣😅🤣 lol... I still have all the old KOFs for playstation 2 might play to see Mai dye and yell "ANDEEEEE!!!" 😅

Maaan from 12:14 to 13:43 was hilarious with all the deaths. I damn near spit out my drink. Great vids but you should go back even further to KoF 94

the damage during guard cancel is unreal. ryo's dp deals 80% damage. benimaru's super attack deals 100% LOL

It makes us feel good to see you react like the rest of us and yell, "the game cheating, man!!!"

Your commentary in this video is pretty funny. :'-) the fade to white when you k.o. the last guy kills me..

BRO I really DID enjoy that, I was all nervouse an ish so I can only imagine what you were going thru my man!

The worst part is losing all of your guys to the first half of the boss 😭😭😭

Eu joguei muito esse jogo quando foi lançado. Os fliperamas da época eram cheios, e ninguém conseguia terminar o jogo. Rugal foi era um pesadelo.

Thank you so much. I remember seeing people reach final stage in arcade. (I couldn’t even get that far). And I was wondering why no one could win. … watching even the legend JW struggling like this made me realize just how stupidly hard it is! OMFG

This was one of the first fighters I played back in the 90's. My university had this game in the Arcade room. Using a roll of quarters it was expensive to try and beat this game. It makes me feel good to know that the great JW had a hard time beating this game as well. 👍

Don’t worry Justin. We’ve all had our no-no’s assaulted by snk at one time or another

The hardest boss in any fighting game, and I've played a lot of fighting games, is Arcana Heart 3: Love Max's boss. You fight her as either Trial 10 in trial mode or as the last boss of Score Attack. I believe it's harder in trial mode. There's like one decent way to beat her but it requires a certain character.

I held you to it and you delivered. You are the man, Justin!

I was playing KoF 95 today and was looking for arcade help because I was getting bodied... This video didn't help, but it made me feel better. Thanks!

More like this especially the 90's 3d ones. I love the struggle.

If a guy who won several fighting game tournaments still struggles like that when playing KoF then i dont feel so bad when i do it too. 🤣👍

I would love to see him playing Fantasy Strike and giving his vision in the game. Love your content man! Keep it up!

So long time i don't see you playing a kof series game, YEAH, i need more this

holy cow this is just level 4 difficulty

Everytime i hear "KOKYUKEN RYU OUGI" I lose my shit !!! Even when dey don't say it, soon as i see the move i yell it out myself n go crazy. Dat move be hype af.

I remember when i was a kid, see one guy sweeping all the levels and rugal with one coin after he requested to the arcade owner to set the arcade highest difficult. Today i see how good he was.

I like that Justin Wong talks about Justin Wong in the 3rd person. That's so Justin Wong of him, Justin Wong would approve.

You should try to play kof 11.

It took me many tries to complete kof 95 I literally cried for it

We used to play the PS1 version of 95, it had terrible loading times but the music was mad awesome and still is jamming. 🤣

The computer reacts, guards, punishes, counter, or does combos. Justin: Oh this is stupid. The computer just walks straight into his fireballs. Justin: Yeah, don't block.

All those times you made it to rugal with one character and lose then when you make it with three you only need one character 😂

IORI IS AWESOME EVER SINCE "95

So many "Waaah!" at the end! I just roflcopter 🤣🤣🤣

The moments with ryo’s “ahh!!” LUL

Probably the most difficult KOF to finish without cheating. Play KOF 96 in the hardest mode.

Please play arcana hearts 3 and fight the true final boss, Parace L'sia. It's near impossible despite her low health.

Hey Justin I was looking through your library of vids was wonder if you've ever did a vid on Tobal no.1. Also keep grinding man you're very entertaining best wishes to you.

You are going against the most difficult fighting games CPU, I got to admit seeing struggling was "hilarious," but I gotta give you a "round of applauds for pulling it off." 💯

That's great sir. I remember getting to Rugal when I was a teenager playing this in the arcade. I didn't have the patients you do. Lol.

Uuuaaaaaaahhh lol dude this video was great 👍🏻 still laughing I remember this game back in the arcade days .. really had me pissed 😤 it was so hard and being so young trying to play this game .. good times good times

I also recommend trying Kaneko Fighting games! They made Shogun Warriors, Blood Warrior (set it to level 8 difficulty), Power Athlete, and the Jackie Chan arcade game that it actually exists. The Jackie Chan game has a more SNK feel to it is than Mortal Kombat. Not to mention the high damage…

I think of this game as the alpha 2 of KOF. Great art, great music and it Introduced a lot of cool characters. I play through this game at least 2 or 3 times a year.

Justin: Well, today i woke up wanting to play king of fighters 95. Sponge Bob locurtor: One eternity later.... 😅

I about spit out my water when he said “Terry from Smash”.

Kof 2001 boss was pretty rage inducing. Same with svc chaos. I'd love to see ya do more it's fun. Feel the rage.

There’s a few “standard” tricks you’re not aware perhaps. 1) For Iori, back youself to your own corner, throw a fireball and wait for CPU to jump, then you can air juggle him till death (2 hits, pause, 2 hits). 2) for Kyo, slowly push CPU to corner, you can do the Dodge + Fireball kick twice (light kick then heavy kick), basically it’s an infinite combo as well. 3) when your power bar is full, you can “counter” when you do any special move while still in your block animation. With the above, you can beat level 8 easily.
