Initially leaked from a Korean rating, the news was confirmed by SNK in the last hours. But what is SNK vs Capcom: Match of the Millennium? Released in 1999 for the Neo Geo Pocket Color, the game was a full-fledged 2D fighting game, able to combine the gameplay formulas of Street Fighter and The King of Fighters in a winning mix, giving life to a media phenomenon that generated 3 sequels: Millennium Fight 2000, SvC 2 e SvC Chaos.
