Capcom vs. SNK: Millennium Fight 2000 Pro brings the legendary crossover to the PlayStation, updating the arcade original with new characters and balance tweaks. Developed by Capcom, this fighting game pits the iconic rosters of Street Fighter and The King of Fighters against each other. It introduces Dan Hibiki and Joe Higashi to the lineup, making an already massive roster even richer for fighting game fans.
How to Play
Matches are fought using the “Ratio System,” where characters are assigned a strength value from 1 to 4. You build a team of up to four fighters whose combined ratio equals exactly four. You also choose between two “Grooves”: Capcom Groove, featuring a multi-level super meter like Street Fighter Alpha, and SNK Groove, which lets you manually charge your meter and unleash MAX desperation moves like in The King of Fighters. The PlayStation default controls map the D-pad to movement, while Square, Triangle, Cross, and Circle handle your punches and kicks (mapped to the Arrow keys and Z, X, S, A in the browser).
Tips
- Understand Grooves: If you rely heavily on super moves, the Capcom Groove’s passive meter building is safer. If you like high-risk, high-reward play, the SNK Groove’s ability to dodge and charge meter manually can be devastating.
- Roster Balance: Don’t just pick a single Ratio 4 character unless you are extremely confident. A balanced team of two Ratio 2 characters or a Ratio 1 and Ratio 3 offers more flexibility and health across rounds.
- New Additions: Practice with Dan and Joe if you are returning to the game, as their unique movesets offer distinct strategies not found in the original release.
