Consumer Poll
This doesn't mean anything but Ultimate Match was voted as the number one best console game for 2008 at Fighters Front Line. I thought it was kinda interesting so I mentioned it; the link is here : http://kasumi19years.hp.infoseek.co.jp/kikaku15.htm

Secret Characters in The Orochi Saga Version
In all versions of The King of Fighters Collection: The Orochi Saga, how do you play as the secret characters in The King of Fighters '98? I have this game on the Wii, tried highlighting Terry Bogard while holding down the Start Button, pressed the Y Button, and it didn't work. It worked with the Neo Geo and Neo-Geo CD versions, though.
 * Well depending on which characters you are referring to, for the alternate versions of characters (i.e. Orochi Chris) hold start while selecting them. Other than that you have to complete challenges in challenge mode to unlock them. A much more detailed list on how to unlock characters can be found here. Kyosei 02:13, September 25, 2009 (UTC)
 * I tried holding start while selecting Terry, but it didn't work. There is no challenge that you must complete in order to unlock alternate characters in The King of Fighters '98; they are already available from the start. How am I supposed to play as the alternate characters in The Orochi Saga version of The King of Fighters '98?
 * Are you trying to play in practice mode? I don't have the Wii version which is apparently different from the PS2 version I have. I did a little research and apparently in the Wii version you can only play the EX characters in arcade mode. Kyosei 18:27, September 26, 2009 (UTC)

King of Fighters 98 JP PS1 "special" variant
I was wondering if anyone had any info on the version of kof98 with kyo with his eyes closed on the cover (see below)

Cover on Right

I am coming up empty handed other than a ebay listing and that has no info on the variant itself. The price is thru the roof on it, its in AES/MVS territory price wise, so Im intrigued into the story behind it
