Just in case some of you folks missed out on the news this weekend (that includes me, getting over the depressing fact that Sunday’s marathon was postponed due to the haze), the classic NEOGEO game Samurai Showdown II has made its way to both iOS and Android platforms! I kid you not, the game maybe a little expensive at 9 bucks, but it looks to be worth the price tag being a perfect port and all that.
The game features a 6 button layout and a SP button to allow players to easily pull off strong slashes and special moves, and those controls can be customized by players in terms of size and placement. The game also features a Bluetooth Multiplayer Mode. Check out the press release below for details:
