Alpha Posted June 29, 2007 Posted June 29, 2007 Here's the teaser video of Street Fighter III: 2nd Impact with hidden characters available! These characters (except Akuma) were never playable in the official game. Also, please note that you will not be able to access these characters with the current ElSemi Preview Test Emulator. The hidden characters are: Akuma, Shin Akuma (WIP), and Gill. Download information will be available in less than 24 hours! »» (A big thank you to Kryso for his efforts and hard work to find this in the game!)
Sultan Posted June 29, 2007 Posted June 29, 2007 Great job with all the videos lately! I think video reviews are a really good direction for the site in the future. Can't wait to try the hidden characters out! Do you think the other games might have similar unplayable characters who will not be playable? I'm not familiar enough with the original arcade games to know which bosses/secret characters were unlockable.
BlackKnight Posted June 29, 2007 Posted June 29, 2007 Most hidden characters and bosses in arcade games are simply not playable. However via hacked romsets, or cheats for emulators, you usually can sometimes play as them. In the case of SFIII, Akuma is the only playable 'secret' character in 2I. Shin Akuma and Gill are never playable. Here it is the result of a rom hack methinks.
olaf Posted June 29, 2007 Posted June 29, 2007 That's uhh... definitely interesting. Were these found as a result of the recent emulation breakthroughs?
Vegeta Posted June 30, 2007 Posted June 30, 2007 I'd like to get my hands on that. *been 24 hours* Yeah, been over 24 hours now, where is the info?
Alpha Posted June 30, 2007 Author Posted June 30, 2007 I've been waiting for the developer to come online. However, it seems he's been busy this week. Therefore, if he doesn't come online today, I'll go ahead and just release it for you guys.
AcidGlow Posted June 30, 2007 Posted June 30, 2007 (edited) Do you need his permission to release it?I'm also wondering what the problem is with Shin Akuma as it's in the status of WIP. What's wrong with him so far? Edited June 30, 2007 by AcidGlow

What's wrong with him so far?I haven't had much time to play with Shin Akuma, but let's just say he's definitely not completely done. As far as permission, I don't think it'll be necessary for this particular release. BTW, I saw your YouTube channel... Wow! You sure have done a great job with the videos you've uploaded. If you want to help us out with our channel, send me a PM.
AcidGlow Posted June 30, 2007 Posted June 30, 2007 Hmm, I see. Does he have graphic errors, crash the game when selected? Could I know what's wrong with him? As he's the reason I want this XD. Thankx for the compliment. I like to show CPS3's emulation progress from start to end.
