Back in the heyday of the Neo Geo, SNK supported their own hardware platform with a bevy of (mostly) fighting games such as Garou Densetsu and King of Fighters. Unlike most other publishers who avoided the Neo-Geo, ADK was right in there, dishing out a relatively steady stream of titles that sated the hunger of thousands of Neo Geo fans and adherents. In recent years, many of the old Neo Geo games have been ported over to the PS2 and ADK's collection finally gets the Neo-Geo-to-PS2 treatment as well. The games featured on ADK Tamashii are:
» Ninja Combat
» Ninja Commando
» Ninja Masters - worth the price of admission by its lonesome?
» Toukai Gan Gan (aka Aggressors of Dark Combat)
» Twinkle Star Sprites
Ninja Combat and Ninja Commando are hack 'n slash action games while Ninja Masters and Toukai Gan Gan are 2D fighting games. Twinkle Star Sprites is a vertical shooter with competitive twist where 2 players attack each other by shooting down waves of flitting enemy squadrons.
SNK developed a new introductory movie for the game compilation which features screenshots of the games scattered in a sort of music video.
The title screen shows the five game logos on the left while images from the various games scroll on the right. If you leave it alone, demos of the games will play starting with Toukai Gan Gan followed by Ninja Masters and the rest of the lot.
The user interface is similar to other Neo Geo PS2 collections but please note that none of the games support online connectivity or functionality.
Some bonus modes have been added to the games as follows:
1) Toukai Gan Gan: In addition to the Arcade Mode, there's also a Versus Mode and a Practice Mode
2) Ninja Masters: In addition to the Arcade Mode, there's also a Versus Mode and a Practice Mode
