Samurai Shodown / Samurai Spirits (NGM-045, alt board) — About this game
Samurai Shodown builds its duels around the reach and damage of distinct weapons. The attack buttons provide weak and medium slashes or kicks, with paired presses producing the strongest versions. Well-timed heavy hits matter more than extended combinations, while the delivery man’s bombs or restorative food can change a close round. The roster’s personal journeys eventually lead to Amakusa’s threat.
