Let's see. Vice and Mature are in the back, Rugal is in the front. Between Geese and Andy is Mai and Choi is in the upper left corner.
Any other guesses?

Jason Fisher
In one of the trailers for it someone is seen fighting geese who is probably him. So even if it's just in a flashback it is likely that he will be. Also this first season will focus more on the FF1 story then near the end it'll transition more into KoF stuff AFAIK. This will most likely be it's own thing rather than tying into the actual canon or anything like that. I remember reading that they might use certain elements from the show to supplement KoFW.

Lurker here, I hate to be the odd one out but I'm not sure if SNK is able to make a Metal Slug 8 given that the last two games bombed financially. The best way for them to revive the franchise IMO is to reboot it but I'm not sure how given that SNK has a small budget and most of all hasn't taken the steps to make a non-fighter game in the first place.
Colton Ross

They've been expanding the story and cast a bit with Metal Slug Attack - with some luck, that could help pave the ground for a future full-scale game.
Ryan Brown
I'm very well aware of that (which is the highlight of that game for as far as I'm concerned) but still the idea of MSA foreshadowing a MS8 is being too optimistic IMO.
I mean, the previous games didn't sell well due to the lack of serious innovations to keep themselves fresh and that they reused the same assets from the previous games barring the new ones for said previous two games. Granted they all still look nice but it's kind of getting repetitive and SNK needs to address that.
Dylan Thomas
I don't know man, when reboots are done sometimes they turn out to be pretty shit or they're panned when compared to the originals in general. Plus if they start from the first one and release each separately I'm not sure people will want to pay full price for it. Whether it's a reboot or a new entry is made I think they should use something that looks like the stuff in their old site. neogeo.freeplaytech.com/metal_slug_en/metal_slug3/metamorphs/metamorphs.htm neogeo.freeplaytech.com/metal_slug_en/metal_slug3/vehicle/vehicle.htm I think it would really convey the feeling of the original sprites, maybe making them a bit bigger would work? Except I don't know how much of a money sink they would be. I can't imagine it would be small since the animation in Metal Slug is pretty top tier. The other user mentioned MSA, I think using elements from that game would be really cool too. Some of those new characters could really work well as allies/recaptured prisoners or mini bosses.
The spritework in the neo geo Slug games was amazing and despite it being my favorite SNK series I don't think I would pay more than $20 for a new entry if it used the same sprites in this day and age. Still I don't expect a new full fledged Metal Slug from SNK any time soon. It going 2.5D would be a shame unless they pull off some real magic with 3D models, but given SNK's history with 3D (I know they're getting better) it doesn't give me much hope for that.
Josiah Cruz
On the contrary, some reboots can succeed if the ones in charge of them put a lot of thought into them and make them work.
And I know some of you wanted the next game to be sprited but it's not economically feasible for SNK so the best they can do graphics wise is to embrace 3D models. Yet they can't afford another MS3D in that it's a flop.
Also, I'm the same person who mentioned MSA btw.
Adam Wilson
today is not a good day, for pest control reasons
Isaiah Ward
I am aware, which is why I mentioned that I wasn't expecting one any time soon. I also agree that some reboots can succeed, but I can't imagine people easily accepting a 2.5D MS. People really shat on XIV, some still do, for going 3D despite the improvements citing the 2D games' "beautiful animations". I don't think they were any better animated than the current game since even the devs mentioned that they tried to keeping the animations 1:1 in comparison to the old games. Personally I wouldn't shit on a 2.5D MS if done well. I would see it as something sad since good 2D in general is on the way out. It's a sad thing, but i guess that's just the way things are. Still if their financial situation gets better I would hope for a new game in the future.
Still I feel that thinking about them churning out new games is a bit soon as it is. If the game's website is any indication they are not even done with KoF XIV. Their mobile division seems to be in full production and development for the arcade version appears to be going well. They seem to be having their hands full as it is. I think what they are doing, putting their mobile division in full force in order to support and prop up their game division is a safe move despite it being somewhat slow as they can't afford huge risks.
There are/were rumors of a new SS, but oda pretty much shot them down long ago saying that they were probably fake which implies that they either are indeed fake or he isn't aware of it. If there were another big project like that I think he would be aware of it.
They did mention that they are doing a collaboration with the developers who made world war tons. I think their name was studio roquovan or something like that. That game looks pretty cartoony. Who knows what that collaboration might be in the end. Maybe they're lending them some MS characters or perhaps they can learn something from them. shoryuken.com/2017/02/10/snk-partnering-with-studio-roqovan-for-vr-content/

To add they recently opened a Tokyo office, but I remember reading that it was meant to house their accounting division. The also hired some employees recently too. It could be for accounting, or it could be for developing, I don't know. I could always be wrong and maybe they are planning something new. Who knows.

Diabla is a cool ass costume, but I could do without the fur coat.

now that angel has something new to wear, she can give her old costume for sylvie to wear
Cooper Lee
The whole 2D being smaller thing is why I believe SNK needs a full 3D direction but again it has to be done well.
Of course I am aware that SNK doesn't have much to start with aside from supporting KOF IV and the mobile games. Yet they did announce that they will show off more titles this year and they have shown off a few so far, we'll just have to see what E3 and TGS bring us from SNK's table.
And I did read about them teaming up with the devs behind World War Toons. Their collaboration could lead to exciting possibilities, hopefully something MS related; though it might lead to simply KOF characters in WWT, even though their civilian nature would clash with the war themed nature of the game.

Oh goddamit they're using the design Billy had in that fucking Fatal Fury Pachinko "Game"? It probably means ugly "Young" Krauser with that ridiculous Sgt. Pepper jacket's going to show up too...

So I saw that 14 got a big patch and decided to finally get it, first KOF game in years. After practicing a bit I jumped online, and upon seeing that the only room in my region was full I tried ranked.
Got matched with some dude with 3 dlc characters, leading with Whip. Although it was a 4 bar connection he was super laggy and bodied me pretty badly.
A shame that she never really completed her Luong costume. I think she posted about having trouble getting the earrings and her being bummed that the WCS didn't allow costumes.

Her Mui Mui is my favorite too. Saldy no pics of her Luon. There's no pics of her in her Nakoruru school uniform either.

Does anyone remember which KOF13 tourney had the commentators suddenly switch to Spanish because the match became hype? I remember it had at least The_Answer.
twitter.com/miharasan/status/852028572025765888 If I'm not mistaken a rough translation would be: >SNK's Oda came to visit Arika during a Tokyobusiness trip. He told us about various things about current fighting game sales. Thank you Very much.
Please please please SNK be interested in this or some sort of partnership. It would be a good fuck you to those who have shat on SNK, but also wanted a new EX.
Are companies this chummy with each other or is it just jap companies? Or could i be that they're just being polite like japs usually are with their whole tatemae thing? I remember reading that capcom's ono was there on april 1st.
