I tip my hat to Pointless Fight (Street Fighter 2)

Yes indeed, a great job done. I was looking back in the original street fighter conversion topic by Norakomi, its nice to see that many people from the msx community contributed bits and pieces to it... discussing/finding techniques, experiments, ideas... I forgot that I wrote that much crap there myself heheh..

Anyway you can roughly figure out how its done by reading that thread, since most of it is discussed (at least the graphical part, for a game as complex as a fighting game, lots of work has to be done in the game engine as well)

Btw I am like you, started to work on my game again and been studying many games (thus getting overloaded with new awesome ideas! )

It's great how a surge of software development 'near you' motivates more coding =) (like an msxdev contest for us msx peepz)

Here goes a proposal: crowfunding to see game finished, this is, the 12 fighters of the original arcade.

I agree with the crowfunding, although I prefer to return to the original beta menu artwork and title. Come on, 2015, MSX... nobody at Capcom even remebers our machines. Then I could buy a physical release

I think that whoever finished this great port did the right thing and right work. While I in the end completely forgot to vote for the MSX compo @ Nijmegen my vote would have gone to pointless fighting as well. While I don't have high affinity towards street fighter myself I find that pointless fighting has: great artwork, great coding and all it takes to be a good MSX2 title. It took alot of time and alot of developers but the result is there to be.

I hope that in the future this project will be continued by the same way it continued before and eventually all fighters will make it in. Pointless fighting shows what a MSX2 can do and how much we love these kind of great quality productions.
