I've been wanting them to do an episode talking about the Fighters Generation and talking to Frank ( Mr. TFG ) Ever since they started this podcast.

Finally. The ultimate guest arrives. This is now hands down the single greatest video of all fighting game history. Literally the entire mount Rushmore of fighting game community legends all in one stream together. Thank you, everyone who worked to make this happen!

I have to commend Justin for the discipline it took to not just toss the baby and start rolling around like it was EVO Grand Finals

23:57 As a 21 year old, MARVEL IS BACK BABY I LOVED THIS FRANCHISE AS A KID MY DAD HAD A COUPLE OF THE OLD GAMES! 🎉

Fighters Generation has long been my favorite fighting game website, because it has always been a celebration of the genre. It's had a place in my bookmarks since I was still using Netscape.

Glad to see that Frank made it into this! I have been a fan of his site for many years! And congrats on the new baby coming. But yea, I am so stoked for MvC Fighting Collection!

Frank is an effing legend! He already had a great FGC website when I was a snotty kid looking for wallpapers, gifs and advice on how to be a pimp from Birdie. You are the man, bro!

Marvel Vs Capcom is a huge reason why I love Marvel now and then. I'm so excited about this collection release!

Holy hell, Fighters Generation. That's a name I haven't heard in a LONG time. Glad to see its legacy is still going strong even now.

Let's hope for a Street Fighter oddities collection: - Alpha 2 Gold - Alpha 3 Max - Hyper Alpha - The EX series - The Movie the game - The Interactive movie - Slotter Up Core 7 - SF2

Oh hey, here it is. MvC Collection coming with an RKO out of nowhere. Now that the collection is happening I regret not saying they should include AvP in there too. Now it's gonna be kinda tough to sell that one, cause not much to bundle it with. 47:25 Literally Fantastic Four team. Let's go! Also, I would love for some WB heads to see the success of MvC and be like: "Do we have anything like this?" and then some guy goes: "Well, we have Mortal Kombat. It's got enough games for at least two bundles". Then they release the 2D MKs: 1, 2, 3, Ultimate 3 and Trilogy and the 3D MKs: 4, Deadly Alliance, Deception, Armageddon, with Shaolin Monks and maybe even Mythologies and Special Forces for the memes.

Love hearing matt talk about Beat Em' Ups 😂

Oh shit Frank Yagami. Fighter's Generation is one of the sites that got me into Fighting Games.

Hearing "IronMouse" and it's not about the VTuber got me so confused.

33:21 spooky sounding DooD

Frankie Yagami is a legend. I first encountered The Fighters Generation back in the early 2000's and have been a regular visitor ever since. I'd always hoped he might one day be a special guest on TKO so this is a dream come true.

Now that is an episode to remember. It's a delight to see Frank over there, who has been internet's prophet of fighting games for as long as I can remember. In fact, he would be a damn fine addition to the team (quadruple K.O.?)

Actually insane to hear the voice behind Fighters Generation after browsing that site for years-as far back as looking at Shuma Gorath sprites on my grandma’s dial up desktop when I couldn’t have been older than six

NOW'S MAHVEL!

My thinking for a new, 2D fighting collection is the following: -Alpha 2 Gold -Alpha 3 Max -Darkstalkers Chronicle The Chaos Tower -Saturday Night Slam Masters -Muscle Bomber Duo -Ring of Destruction -Sengoku Basara X -Capcom Fighting Evolution -Mega Man The Power Battle -Mega Man 2 The Power Fighters

Can't believe that it was CASUALLY announced in a damn Nintendo Direct

Bringing back Marvel, and including the classic Punisher Beat 'em up with it. This collection might as well have been called "the Triple KO pack".

We are witnessing the Mount Rushmore of FGC news and content! Really happy to see Frank mixing it up with Triple KO!

This Triple K.O.-The Fighters Generation is just as big a crossover as Marvel vs. Capcom, and I'm all for it

AAAAHHHH!!! FRANK YAGAMI!!! HOLY SHIT!! Dude! This guy! THIS LEGEND! I obsessed over your sanctuary of awesome, seriously! If you ever read this Frank, you're like the Atlas to my view of the FGC--you've held and shared this passion for fighting games up like the "marvel" that it is and seriously, you're one of my heroes. Forgive me if Im laying this on thick, but sincerely; Ive always appreciated your opinions from Frank's Review on characters and games. Your genuine approach to your interest has inspired me for a life time--thanks for being (beyond) awesome!

I still constantly go for Fighter's Generation for image references, background art, concept art etc

Matt unlocking some buried memories with that ironmouse shrine site.

Been so looking forward to the post announcement episode. Feels like being in a room with my friends. Seriously love this podcast.

It has been a long while since I last checked Fighters Generation. Back then I used to save all the images there on diskettes or burn them on CDs while at work as my home internet was very crappy. I have all those pics arranged and saved neatly in a folder.

Proud to be regular visitor of Frank's site since the first days. Great to see him as guest.

The acid starts hitting at 33:40

Insane to see this video exist, Frankie is an awesome human being in person and is a regular player in the Soul Calibur 2 scene in my local venue (currently my bracket demon) so sick to see a legend play in person!!

Frank Yagami!!! Man I’ve been going to his website for fighting game lore LITERALLY since I was in 8th or 9th grade. I STILL visit that site and I’m 40 now lol

Yessss!! The episode I’ve been waiting for to talk about The Game we’ve all been waiting for!!!!

As an Xbox user I was absolutely devastated when I learned the collection wasn't coming to the platform. Watching that trailer made me feel like Ralph before and after he proclaimed his love for Lisa... 😭

Free MVC2 is finally completed! Now, time for Free CVS2.

Frank Yagami casting devilish glances my way

Frank Yagami's Fighter's Generation website is my all time favorite fighting game source of information and fan artwork.

The Fighter's Generation was the go to site for fighting game nerds back then. Crazy guest to have on the show!

1:30:34 I'll do it for you, Matt. IT'S MAHVEL, BAYBEE!

I'm a little older, but Fighters Generation helped me so much when in got into MAME back in 2003-4? and was going to build a home bar. Frank had so much info on the best games I knew which ones I wanted to play and seek out. Thank you for having him on the podcast and as an old head I very appreciate you guys podcast! Quick question, will we ever see a modern port of Martial Champion? I remember the day our arcade got it and loved it for what it was. Unfortunately, Frank didn't get to say much and did not feel like a "guest".

Oh my god it's The Fighters Generation. He was a being of myth and legend for me back in the day.

When I cosplayed Iori, I went to TFG to look at the sprites of his moves so that I can look decent when people ask to take videos and photos. 😂 And recently, I had nothing to do at work so I took some sprites from the site and added it to our Slack workspace emotes. Haha Thank you for keeping the website alive for the FGC, Frank!

Shout out to Tampa! Jet has done artwork for me.

Max and Justin are exaggerating a tad concerning how MvC2 was received early. Yes, there absolutely was some rumbling about the lack of direct access to medium attacks (I know I was annoyed at first) and it was initially thought that the game would lose tactical depth due to that. But it _quickly_ became clear that the new setup provided as much, if not more depth than the previous control setup, as the assist systems meant that the game was a true 3 on 3, compared to previous titles which were just 1 on 1 on 1 on 1. No one ever actually called the game "trash" after they played it for a little while (maybe Eddie Lee, the King of MvC1 did since he didn't quite make the transition, but the majority of players embraced MvC2 pretty much from day 1). Yes, the lack of individual endings sucked, but even back then, no one played the Vs. games for the arcade endings. But the music? Yeah. The music was HATED on release, and was hated for YEARS. I was one of the haters. The light jazz crap that replaced the awesome character themes did NOT go over well with _anyone_. _No one_ liked the music and was 100% believed to be the worst aspect of the game, so much so that later, players hacked in their own soundtrack, with the character select screen ("Gonna Take You For a Ride") being particularly despised with its monotony. I honestly don't know when things flipped around and people started genuinely liking the soundtrack and Gonna Take You for a Ride became beloved, to the point that it came back in altered form in MvC3. In retrospect, it is the _weirdest_ thing about MvC2, that the one thing that was disliked about the game from day 1 became yet another part of it to be loved. And yet, here we are. Even I love the soundtrack now. Wow.

I never liked the switch to 3D backgrounds either, always thought they clashed with the sprites, and with the music being random jazzy stuff it always felt a bit less badass than the previous entries. Pretty much felt the same with CvS 2 as well.

It's a story of our lives, where it began, it grew, and evolved.

Fighters Generation is a great website also super excited for Marvel Vs Capcom Fighting Collection,Here's Hoping for Capcom Vs SNK Fighting Collection and Brand New Marvel Vs Capcom :D

The legacy of the MvC saga is legendary. Those of us who lived it, we know. Each game delivered something amazing, uncanny, and astonishing. To see it return, plus for a new generation. This is a gift 30 years. The animation, character designs, the gameplay, the move sets, and the music. Every entry made it special. Welcome back MvC, missed you old friend Frank, I agree with you "Henshin-A-Go-Go-Baby!!" Btw congrats on becoming a dad

Yepp, found some cool Iconic Terry Animated GIFs recently, and the site was the same..so this is the dude, Cool. Fighters Generation💯

Been waiting for this one! Love the podcast, gentlemen!!!

I am soooooo starstruck! Frank is such an fgc icon!!

The world is a better place when CAPCOM decides to give a shit.

Man, those 1.0 anime/game shrine sites were something special back then! I was always excited to download MIDI files from em.

That fifty bucks Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection way too rich for my blood, gonna wait for heavy discount.

Max, you don't have to explain the hype to us Nintendo players. We've been around for every Smash guest character announcement. Trust, we get it. I've seen people literally cry for Sora. We get it.

This was a great podcast episode!

I want a Capcom vs SNK Collection & Tatsunoko vs Capcom Remastered as well.

probably the best fighting game site out there

22:46 I had such a visceral reaction when he said Tampa Lanes cus holy shit that's like a couple miles away from where I grew up lol. I REMEMBER the Marvel 2 machines

Thanks guys

Brah! When mvc2 was out in arcade I was a regular haunt at Tampa lanes. The competition was bananas! RiP Pete who managed Tampa lanes.

I had the impression that all the Capcom crossover series were wildly popular in my country (Philippines) during their heyday, especially MvC 2. The cabs were always occupied and had small crowds drawn to them whenever someone played. But I don't have any concrete data since the internet was at its infancy at the time, just a personal anecdote from my high school days.

My personal hope for a proper MVC4 is for Capcom to take a page from skull girls and allow each player to have their choice of 1-3 characters for their team with some slight stat adjustments to accommodate based on team size.

Pretty sure I got into MvC1 through the PlayStation port (though I eventually picked up the Origins collection when it dropped). I also ended up getting the PS2 version of MvC2, but missed out on picking up the PS3 port of MvC2 while it was available. It’s gonna be nice playing the arcade versions when the new collection drops.

Since Capcom and Marvel are doing well together again, then maybe it's about time we got a 1st ever re-release of Capcom's Alien Vs. Predator. A game locked in the arcades for literally 30 years.

Going to buy a physical and steam download. Hopefully Capcom crossovers will come back again 🙏

Man you want to talk about dredging things up from my youth. Like many of us seasoned FGC players I can't even begin to think of the amount of time I have spent on the Fighters Generation. I kind of felt my age a bit when Matt mentioned CG Shrines. This was just an awesome episode loaded with some nostalgia and a cool guest.

I remember playing the punisher game at a Walmart in Fresno back in the day. My brother and I were halfway through the game when we had to leave. I’m pretty sure that we could’ve beaten the game. Good times.

I really wished CAPCOM pushed the level forward on promoting The Punisher, because it's a great game. Here in Brazil, back in the day, we had an overdose of CADILLACS & DINOSAURS, the other huge beat-em-up that appeared on the arcade. Captain Commando, The Punisher and Cadillacs & Dinosaurs were the top 3 beat-em-ups. But for some reason Cadillacs were more popular here. Maybe it's Hannah's attributes of maybe Mustapha being a black dude.

If I'm not sitting on the TC5 machine after my shift at Dave and Busters, I'm working on my HotD Scarlet Dawn high score.

Frank seems Hella chill.. don't mind grabbing a beer with him.

I hope we get a new Marvel vs Capcom game soon
