Very confused by this because at the KO in their round of Night Warriors: Darkstalkers’ Revenge, there’s no red screen flash–whereas in every playthrough of the arcade game I’ve seen on YouTube, and in the versions on PS2 and PS3, there’s a red screen flash at the end of every round.

In Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection they used I think like the earliest available ROM revision for each of the games, which was bizarre–but maybe that’s what’s going on here. … Oh, they actually list the included ROM revisions on the web site Night Warriors - Darkstalkers' Revenge - | Capcom Fighting Collection - Japan 950302 and USA 950406. 950302 is included in the JP Vampire Darkstalkers collection on PS2 and does have red screen flash (ditto with that collection’s other version, JP 950316); the one shown in this video below is probably USA 950406.

Whoops no that’s not it, this video of 950406 has heinous red screen strobe at the end of a round, even in 30 fps: [ARCADE] Night Warriors: Darkstalkers' Revenge (US 950406) (1995) DEMITRI - YouTube

So…either IGN edited out the red screen flash in their video–seems unlikely, since their rounds of the later games in the collection have round-ending red flashes–or the version in CFC is just different–or they added an option to turn the flash off?

Also just realized there’s NO red screen flash in the first Darkstalkers game (any version).

Guess I’m gonna have to get Capcom Fighting Collection after all. = o
