Aug 4, 2017For fans of the long-running series, buying King of Fighters ’99 on the Nintendo Switch should be a no-brainer. It’s a great game given new life on a new platform – what isn’t there to love?

Aug 15, 2017The King of Fighters '99 doesn't reach the heights of its immediate predecessor, but by changing things up there's still fun to be had from the different way of playing offered by the introduction of Strikers. There's a good variety of characters to play as and the game offers the expected enjoyable multiplayer with friends. However, just as earlier games in the series were "good, but not as good as the one after", KOF '99 would be improved upon by its follow-up. Those interested in story will want to see the beginnings of the NESTS storyline, but from a purely gameplay perspective KOF 2000 is a better option.
