One detail I think is really cool is that the game ends with the destruction of Southtown, the single most important location in the SNK verse. It being destroyed is basically SNK tearing down the set at the end of the play. 2003, the first KOF game made after the old guard formed Playmore and got back all their old IPs, ends with Southtown being rebuilt.
@@defo8811 Most SNK (and also Capcom) employees are now working at: -Arc System Works -Arika -DIMPS -Examu The current SNK has little to do with the original, except for some important people like Oda (the current producer of KOF, SS and SNK Heroines, who previously worked as one of the main creatives behind the Fatal Fury series).
The KOF '00 soundtrack is amazing for his melancholy. It was the last game to be produced by the old SNK, so they make it in a way that you can listen to the sadness on every song, like it was saying goodbye to everyone.
+Magno Rodrigues Costa pienso =... la verdad que en esta edición de KOF hay muy buenos temas a demás de todo lo que concierne a jugabilidad y de más aspectos del juego... es decir, la música, el entorno y el personaje en el Final Stage, POR EJEMPLO, son excelentes; para mi fue la mejor versión del juego producido por SNK, antes que se asociara con PLAYMORE.
the best producction of SNK...graphics, soundtracks, history, caracteres, playability...no playmore fucking stupids! i'll always remenber this soundtrack
The stage: (Camera faces towards Kula, who is falling headfirst towards Earth) Kula: If this goes on...we'll all die for sure. (Kula's sister Candy grabs her and holds onto her, falling with Kula) Kula:...Candy?! (Camera pans above, shows the two falling very fast towards Earth, the fades to black for a bit as Candy sacrifices herself, saving Kula's life) Kula: What means "friend"? Diana/Foxy: Friends are people who cannot be replaced. Give her a hug.
In the ending we see Heidern talking in a sad way about the events that happened before, I believe the default ending somehow mirrors the situation of SNK at that time, "All I know for sure is, we creamed big time" was a memorable line said by Heidern during the ending, in case you didn't know Heidern was modeled after Eikishi Kawasaki the owner of SNK and even in The Ikari game Ralf and Clark's superior officer is called General Kawasaki.
The end of a truly special era... Not to insinuate the future was all doom and gloom after OG SNK disbanded, but there was a certain kind of magic and care that was lost in the transition.
Agree with you, but it was not just the case of SNK, but many other companies. Videogames, movies... have lost "something" with so much modernization and superficiality typical of the present era (mainly from the second half of the 2000s onward). Wishing some genius creates the time machine, to be honest.
KoF 2000: the Old SNK'S Last Stand. They KNEW that they were going to die so they thought "Let the Fans Have a KoF to Rember us by." And that they did. If only the Old SNK was still alive. Then we wouldn't had to deal with the Mess that is KoF 2001.
RRaccoon99 At least 2002, X, XI, XIII, and XIV still stand strong. The only KOF titles that weren't good were 2001(the game isn't even canon, they had to write novels instead.) and XII(XII was literally a beta for XIII, but XI didn't exactly hold up)
KOF XIV is very good, and the main staff members who worked in Fatal Fury and Art of Fighting gathered again to make the game. The classic SNK is not dead.
It's so amazing. The last games from the true SNK: KOF2000, Garou and Last Blade 2 are their masterpieces: their heritage and we, the gamers, we'll always miss them and all the passion they put in their games
Kinda loving this. Getting over painful moments with this track kinda eases the pain. Rejection and heartbreak? Sadness and sad memories from the past? I'mma play this...
te da una gran melancolia...antes no lo notaba pero ahora si cuando volvi a jugarlo y terminarlo con kyo y iori recorde al ver el final con mis amigos de la tiendita de la esquina
@@chrhernan es cierto, te da melancolía porque ésos bellos tiempos jamás volverán, yo también la escucho y me da melancolía acordarme de todos los momentos qué pasaba en la tienda de la esquina jugando con mis amigos :(
Ciertamente...uno mirando atrás cuando lo jugó en su juventud y volver a jugarlo ahora que se es adulto y escuchar este tema, es la melancolía de que el viejo SNK hizo una belleza y se despidió pero diciendo, miramos hacia el futuro y nunca seremos olvidados
With the start of the melody you can hear the old SNK saying goodbye. It was like a grandparent passing away, giving one last gift to everyone and making his last stand before he moves onto heaven.
Este juego es para mi sin duda el juego con mayor carga emocional de todo kof, lleno de revelaciones y la destruccion de la ciudad iconica de todo kof, se nota que SNK se preparo para este juego pensando que estaban a nada de desaparecer.
ADEUS SNK! AGRADECEMOS POR TUDO DE INFÂNCIA QUE NOS PROPORCIONOU! MÚSICA DE DESPEDIDA....... CARA.... SÓ QUE VIVEU NAQUELES TEMPOS, SABE O QUANTO É INESQUECÍVEL! AGRADEÇO, SNK! Mas a Verdadeira SNK voltou? Prefiro entender que "NÃO", mas estão tentando voltar. Só o KOFXV, nos dirá, se eles voltaram, mas, por sinceridade, ainda acho que, "NÃO."

Is southtown's destruction canon?
@@Error-wn5gy yea it nearly killed terry which is symbolic
@@RyomenAyeni225 ah
@Error
In KOF, yes.
In AOF/Fatal Fury/MOTW, no.
The last message at the credits was simply beautiful:
"Thank you all with Love."
Guess that summed it up really well.
well snk is back

Los jugadores de Kof, tarde o temprano, vuelven a donde fueron felices: -El Ending del 2000'
Las cinemáticas de los personajes y sus movimientos ninguna entrega lo hizo como este ni el 01 ni el 02

Came to hear this master piece once again because it's getting a new version in KOF XV. LET'S GOOO
I love KOF with all my heart
Yo también lo amo Jéssica
"Enough Prattle."
tied with space quest as my all time favorite game series
❤
Even if I was a 2006 born, this was the first kof i played in 2012
this is the perfect ending theme
I CANNOT BELIEVE THEY'LL REMIX THIS FOR KOF XV
yeah, for sylvie vs angel's destiny battle theme, l think.
@@axelhunter321 yup!
@@axelhunter321 ironically both sylvie and angel never debuted at kof 2000
loved this theme
one of the most beautiful tracks ever in an snk game (Y)
kof 99 y kof 2000 me hicieron todo un crack en las maquinitas
2024, 24 year ago...
Simplesmente incrível a trilha sonora desse game. ❤
With the start of the melody you can hear the old SNK saying goodbye. It was like a grandparent passing away, giving one last gift to everyone and making his last stand before he moves onto heaven.
I would play and beat this game just to hear this tune. Worth it every time.
Que recuerdos señores, que recuerdos... :')

Concuerdo contigo, pareciera que todo K.o.F 2000 gira en torno a ese tema , tanto en sus ending como en la dedicatoria en los créditos del staff roll.
La mejor epoca de mi vida.
Y acá se terminan los mejores versiones arrange de los KOF de la antigua SNK :´(
Sebas Baez la verdad si gracias por todo SNK 😞😞😞
Aun queda la 2003 tiene unos soundtrack que uuff
@@godzero1257 si tiene algunos q estan chidos pero no comparados con los de la antiua snk
Glad I have it on PS4!

Nostalgia 😢 SNK forever!!!
