Type - 2D Fighting

The King Of Fighters team hit the Saturn for the first time in their 2nd game. The King of Fighters series was renowned for it's use of many character sprites on screen at once.  now whist the Saturn could easily cope with the 2D aspect of this it couldn't really cope with the amount of memory needed for all of the character animations.  So this led to King Of Fighters '95 being the first and only Saturn game to use it's very own ram cartridge.  There are many other game that use RAM carts but not in the same way as King Of Fighters '95.  You see, the RAM cart that comes with King Of Fighters '95 features all of the character animation frames which the Saturn can download from the cart when ever they are needed by the game.  This leaves the Saturn with enough free memory to concentrate on other stuff such as backgrounds and music.  The cartridge that comes with King Of Fighters '95 can't be used with any other game nor will the CD work with out the cartridge.

KOF'95 features a total of 24 team characters plus Omega Rugal.  The game is from what I can tell identical to it's Neo Geo counter part and loads a hell of a lot faster than the Neo CD version.  Well worth picking up for your collection.
