zOMFG! What if there was a Viper fighting game?
I'll tell you one thing brother; even if the game played worse than Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Tournament Fighters on the NES, I'd still be camped out in front of EB games on launch day gripping onto my preorder ticket.
I can see it now...
They'd call it Viper GTFO and it'd be for the Sega Saturn, because lord knows that system was built for 2D fighters. Even today you'll see people stealing Sega Saturn controllers for their sheer D-pad responsiveness and six button layout.
I think the character lineup for the game would look something like this(8 characters because if there's anything that Capcom's taught us it's that you need 8 characters to launch a successful fighting game franchise):
1. Akira Honjoji - Ryu type character with the shotokan style and aikido and judo mixed in. Out of all of the Viper characters, I'd say Akira knows how to throw down the best so she'd be the poster girl for the game-you'd see an image of her on the compact disc and cover of the game, and there'd be a sexy lady at EB games dressed up as her handing out promo flyers and lollipops.
2. Carrera - Since she has demon magic I'd imagine she'd use all sorts of spells and play something like Testament from Guilty Gear. Knowing Carrera most of her throw moves would involve some kind of groping action, and upon defeating you she'd take your soul and make Mercedes do the dishes for the fourth time this week.
3. Makoto - Not to be outdone by Akira, Makoto would play like Jun Kubota from Variable Geo. They're practically relatives, and besides, this game would need to have a throw character in order to be a fighting game.
4. Asuka - To mix it up a bit, Asuka would come into battle with all of her kendo armor on, and as a nod to Northern Light's storyline, peices of her armor would come off as she takes damage. Attack wise, I'd imagine she'd play something like a Samurai Showdown character.
5. Bravan -Bravan would fucking pwn. Of course, his super would be the Bravan Slash, and he'd fuck up life bars by way of his Metal Buster and Bravan Shot. He'd definetly be a top tier character, and would even transform in his intro animation.
6. Mika/Henshin Mode - Mika would fill the role of the game's speedy character. While she's not incredibly strong, I could see her running
circles around the other characters, thanks to her power armor.
7. Magical Gambler Totocal Chomi - Why in the fuck would Chomi even be in this game? She's got absolutely no real fighting ability besides being able to throw dice at people and turn the outcome of a game of chance in her favor. Success! She'll be the oddball character who's moves make absolutely no sense yet still deal damage! (See: Rival School's "Sleeping Fish" Nagare)
8. Raika - Raika's a tough detective character and I'd imagine that she'd play no differently. For the hell of it, she could use her gun in battle, would use all sorts of takedown moves and raw punches and kicks, and could match Makoto in strength, not because she's strong or anything, but because she's Raika. OwO
9. Yuka Takeuchi - Bam! Secret character! If we get enough yen together then we could persuade TGL to let us borrow her, if not just for a moment. She'd sweep in at the end of the game right before the last boss and say something along the lines of "I AM THE SECRET CHARACTER!" *Kills boss for you* "WE MUST FIGHT!" Of course, you'd need a top score of over 40,000 points and would have to finish every fight with super move in order to have the honor of fighting Yuka Takeuchi.
The chances of this game being created are slim to none, but who cares? Viper GTFO would pwn the bargain bin, going so far as to beat out every PS1 and Gameboy game in second hand sales.
This game would shake the foundations of mediocre anime infused fan service-y type fighting games forever.
If I were a jaded fanboy reviewer working for IGN (or another respectable online gaming publication) I'd quickly give it a 9.5/10 and quit my job the next day. This game would just rock that hard.
-
hell yes! totally sounds like a fighting game from the 90's alright...and it would pwn the crap out of the POS they call dbz budokai then for the second game you just add a new row of characters like all other games and 1 more secret character cause every one knows thats what all fighting games do now
-
What about Kate or Yulia? (fear the laser pistols)
Or Cara? (lethel swords and magic)
Or Mercedes and Ratty? (becuase Capcom's proven only one succubus just doesn't please everyone)
Narsha and Irear would make great bosses.
-
Ehmmm.... I DON'T think I should vote cause I cant vote twice... I WOULD buy my own copy as soon as it came out... BUT THEN I'd ALSO download it after everyone bought their own copy. JUST because! WOW, I'm weird. But that's an obsession for ya'...
-
i had the same thoughts also but i voted any way...there needs to be a C choice that would make things easier for those of us who would do both
-
Let's just make it easy on ourselves and say that if we went to the trouble of putting down cold hard cash for the game and already installed it that there wouldn't be any need to download it afterwards.
As for Kate and Yuria, as badass as it would be to be able to play as both of them at the same time a la Kohaku and Hisui from Melty Blood, I think they'd fare better in a sequel. The pitch would sound something like this!
*cheesy 1980s video game announcer*
"You thought you had enough of the ultimate nonstop fighting action of VIPER GTFO, but you were sooo wronGGG!
Now presenting as playable characters, a blast from the past! Kate and Yuria from Viper V12! With an all new revamped fighting engine, it's Viper GTFO 2: Hyper Fighting!
This new addition to the Viper series lets you play as Narsha without a cheat code and introduces several new characters to the lineup, including Cala, Shine, and Ratty! INVINCIBLE!! Let's enjoy a great showtime!!!111one!!oneone"
I think Cala's breasts could sell the game on her own so she'd be necessary for a sure fire sequel.
-
I think Cala's breasts could sell the game on her own...
Amen.
-
Definitely something I'd buy, especially since my three favorite gals are in it.

ok, but if I get BOTH, I'll get... lesee...
PANTSU! :D
-
lol anyone got the time to program it into MUGEN and create sprites? ONLY THEN CAN WE BRING THE VIPER MADNESS TO THE FIGHTING GAME WORLDz!
Also, I cast my vote for Clay Aiken in this thread

Move lists!
Akira
Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner ("Panch, Panch, Panch!")
:qcf :+ :p (can be linked three times)
Akira punches three times in succession, with each punch being more powerful than the last. Can be mixed with Drink, Appetizer, and Meal.

Using her knowledge of Aikido, Akira grabs the opponent's attack and slams them to the ground.
Supers
Falcon Arrow
:hcb :f :+ :p ( :t ) (:a)
Akira performs the move perfected by Japanese wrestling sensation Taka Michinoku where she grabs her opponent, suplexes them into the air, turns them around in mid-air, and sit down slams them in front of her. Can be performed in the air.
Friday Night Rush
:qcf :qcf :+ :p :+ :k
Akira rushes toward her opponent and unleashes a barrage of 5 punches, 5 chops, 5 kicks, and finishes with a jumping soccer kick.
Ratty

Ratty launches her pitchfork at her opponent. If blocked, the pitchfork remains on the ground and must be picked up in order to be used again.
Detonate Pitchfork

Supers
Impale
:qcf :qcf :+ :p
Ratty slams into her opponent and impales them with her pitchfork. Pitchfork gets stuck and she then puts both feet onto her opponent to pry it loose. Ratty then kicks her opponent hard and they're both sent flying into the opposite edges of the screen.
-
Don't foget Akira's chop-chop-chop. She slices, she dices, and makes a meal for two in 60 seconds flat. And always has to look good doing it, too.
-
Capcom had more than one succubus BTW, There was Morrigan and also Lilith (DROOL). Oh well
:f :b :f :qcb :hcf :p
lol include Sabin's bum rush from FFVI, just to drive people insane with that stupid button combination again.
Also Hyperguy has inspired me to write a commercial for this fighting if anything to entertain my sorry arse. I've got little kids at my house and I can make them say funny one-liners like "WOW COOL!" and "KICKIN RAD"!
Man I'm so sad.
-
welll i guess the viper figthing game could come true, if ur a MUGEN expert that is. come to think of it... i wonder why no one has made an Akira character for mugen?
-
I'd buy it just to snap shots of the weird looks I'd get from the vendors...
Having Akira show up in more games would be a bonus.
-
Well if you think about it, Akira has probably appeared in more games than most MUGEN fighters. 14 by my count: V16, GTB, GT1, Typing, all six Islands, and all four Paradices.
-

Actually, I did see one Akira available for Mugen:
http://www.dasenzaisdojo.frac.dk/htm/_chars_akira_h_akira_h_def.htm
The page that had her available for download seems to have vanished from Google, grrr.
-
does anyone know wer i can download akira for MUGEN?
-
What the, why haven't I seen this? And why do I have only Reimi?
-
Found it!

hey, thanks for the link bro!

It's pretty good for an edited character, since they usually tend to have very few frames and all of two moves. The lack of hit sparks and some of the funny hit boxes (her light kick hits when it's like an inch away from your opponent's face) are bothersome, but still, better than most. There's something seriously wrong with her idle stance bounce, though - nipples just don't meet each other right in the middle of the chest like...that, just from an up and down hop (I mean, it's like her breasts are FACING EACH OTHER, one staring the other down mid-bounce - you'll see what I mean, it doesn't look natural). They don't. Pay a girl to jump on a bed for a minute, I promise you her breasts won't directly face each other at any point. I don't care how big or small they are, they don't. They clearly weren't using enough "reference". :|
-
Ouch. She got totally destroyed by my Shin Akuma. :p :p :f :k :hs
-
well lets just hope that some one will release a better version of akira. but as for now, she's ok ^_^
-
Well, now me and Baka! are looking for MUGEN characters to kill each other at school...
Viper, Love Hina, others...
Anyone have anything to help?

Brownie points to whomever can find the Reimi Jahana for Mugen that's been floating around.

think any of you folks could rip a sprite sheet for those of us who are not running mugen? (i've got too many things on this comp to want to add a game to it)

That wouldn't be too farfetched considering Yuka's already made appearances in Duel Savior Justice and Scramble Savior (The latter also has V.G. Neo lead Yuu Asuka.).
