same, other than the awesome intro, it’s not a very good game. it’s like the most basic snes rpg, but with 3d models in the battles
denki groove jigoku v is the predecessor to work time fun/baito hell 2000, instead of working and buying trinkets and more part time jobs like in WTF, you buy records that have samples on them and then you make techno music. that’s like a full realization of all the playstation 1 marketing campaigns. work to live, live to play. death to warioware

Are the Capcom and Saturn ports really that bad on PS1? I know the VS games don’t work right but there are a lot of them. Or is it really just an argument of small differences that you would never notice in actually playing.
the vs games are garbage, and street fighter alpha 3 is missing a bunch of features, but otherwise, they’re fine.
even sfa3 was good enough at the time, until the dreamcast version came out (unless you were able to play the saturn version back then)
there’s some little things like how the intro in the playstation version of sfa2 is a prerecorded fmv of the arcade version’s instead of just being ingame graphics like it is on saturn, but yeah, it’s not a noticable difference.
What’s Alpha 3 missing? Word on the street back when was it was just a couple Zangief animation frames.
lots of animations (though most of them are just things like intro/win poses)
in dramatic battle mode, player 2 has to be player 1’s preapproved partner
other stuff i can’t remember, though i’m sure there was more
i just know that when i got the dreamcast version a few years later, it felt like the lap of luxury in comparision

Yeah, I played the shit out of the ps1 SFA3, and then the DC one was like “oh, so this is what that was supposed to be? huh.”
Oh yeah, I forgot about the non arcade extras like dramatic battle.
I know it’s compromised in different ways, but I’m still amazed by the GBA port.
