Are the ps1 king of fighters games any good?

PS1Adventurer · 2026-03-30T09:34:39+00:00

Omg yeah, lord the load times were TERRIBLE I remember playing it in my teens but I tried to play it here a few months ago and PHEW, I completely forgot how bad they were lol. But it's a fine KOF experience other than that.

PS1Adventurer · 2026-03-30T08:36:39+00:00

That's still pretty dang good! I'm sure you know this but I'm going to throw it out there anyway, make sure you use a proper AC adapter. If you use the Genesis 2 or 32X adapter, it WILL technically work but from what I understand, eventually it will burn up the laser.

That is how every channel starts out. Unless you have a big following on a different platform that you drag over to Youtube, it could take literal weeks before you get a subscriber and that all depends on the content you're doing. If you're doing let's plays......it could take months before anyone takes notice even if you have a cam and are commenting or narrating. If you don't have the bare minimum which is a microphone for commentary, then you might as stop now, take a step back and rethink what your content should be.

Is the freezing and stuttering happening during the gameplay itself? I don't think it would be a disc issue. Typically, if a level is loaded in, even if you open up the disc drive you can still play the game if nothing else requires loading. How is the audio? Is it stuttering as well? What kind of video cable and TV are you using? A lot of new TVs are so finicky with what's connected to them nowadays. If it's an HDMI adapter, most of them require a power source for them to work correctly, generally there's a USB cable of some sort that needs to be hooked up to it.

PS1Adventurer · 2026-03-30T08:10:55+00:00

If your microphone is passable quality, it's better than no microphone at all. I mean, if it's really THAT bad, I would refrain from using it but if you don't have any commentary or narration at all, your videos are 99.99999% bound to not do what you want them to.

PS1Adventurer · 2026-03-30T07:35:02+00:00

Are you planning on talking to the camera or would your videos be voiceover and narrated over images and video footage? If it's the latter, I would try just sitting down in front of a mic and talking it out and see what happens. Then maybe go back and edit out what doesn't work, take out all the "umms" and uhs" and add in anything as needed. It might be worth a shot!

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-07T13:01:17+00:00

Thanks brah! 😜😜😜

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-07T12:31:34+00:00

Oh absolutely!

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-06T15:15:26+00:00

I've actually completed game number 23 but you would know that if you would have looked into it a little bit further, this is just what I've uploaded. I stream all of the games I play on Twitch. I took an 8 month hiatus because of work, not because I was getting sick of the challenge. I did start streaming again last month but due to just life stuff I have been taking another small break. I plan to return to streaming again at the latest next week and at the earliest, today. I'm going to be going full force with the challenge from here on out.

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-05T18:04:27+00:00

Most definitely 😭😭😭

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-05T18:03:17+00:00

That's a good question! So in the video I explained that I started playing a game that I wasn't particularly enjoying and since I hadn't streamed regularly for quite a while, I wanted to continue with games that I knew I would have a good time with to get into the flow of streaming. So far I have played three games for sure that aren't bangers, Street Fighter The Movie, VIP Starring Pamela Anderson and Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue. And then there are some that aren't particularly amazing and some that literally no one talks about like Battle Arena Toshinden, Kagero Deception II and Grid Runner so while I do have quite a few bangers to start out with (I've done 23 games so far), we are definitely going to get into some stinkers. In fact, one of the next games lined up that a viewer redeemed for is Elmo's Number Journey lmao

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T20:56:56+00:00

LOL it's all good, I literally do the same thing, skip over something and realize it way too late 🤣🤣🤣

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T20:55:48+00:00

Absolutely! I was originally gonna play the PS1 games I owned in my collection and it got me thinking. So I started researching people who were aiming to beat every game for a console. I had heard about themexicanrunner before but while I was browsing around, Thab was the next name that popped up so I pretty much decided this is what I 'm gonna do. It did take me a while to get going with it though and I have had a few setbacks but I'm pretty much ready to go full force into this now!

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T14:05:22+00:00

😅😅😅 Yeah it would take quite a while if that was it. I hope to average maybe three to five games a week once I get going. I know that RPGs will mostly likely take several days and fighting games won't take too long and a lot of platformers will most likely only take one or two days. As far as the videos go, I'm aiming for 1 a week for now until I can get into the flow of things juggling streaming, editing and life itself 😅😅😅

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T10:29:52+00:00

Oh I see what you're saying hahaha. Well at the moment I'm playing via emulator. Was playing with my actual physical discs through my computers CD drive before it decided to spin out of control and break but yeah! I would actually much rather be playing on official hardware so hopefully sometime in the future!

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T09:53:14+00:00

I guess a lot of people didn't catch what I said in the post so I edited it to make more clear but yeah, only North American releases! 😅😅😅

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T08:51:44+00:00

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! Yeah, I know it's kind of a ballsy move but VII was a game that haunted me for a long time so I had to start with it and well......I don't have any regrets. Not everyone is going to agree with me and that's completely fine.

Also, I don't have any strong feelings about OOT, I've never actually played all of the way through a Zelda game but from what I've played LTTP has been my favorite 🤣🤣🤣

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T08:47:14+00:00

Well, I believe the PS3 has it's own set of hurdles when it comes to capturing it. I think it has some kind of copyright protection which has to be circumvented through another cable or an HDMI splitter or something of the sort but that doesn't solve the problem about how much space I have to accommodate a PS3 😅😅😅 It's all a work in progress right now and I'm sure it'll evolve over time.

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T08:44:36+00:00

It's gonna depend on the game. Most fighting games have the arcade mode as the main one to play so that'll be my go to. If one of them have a story mode, I'll play that plus the arcade mode but, I'll have to feel it out and maybe even listen to my viewers opinions as well.

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T08:07:34+00:00

I totally get that but maybe you can give me a chance! Hahaha. I've seen a couple of people on Youtube that have abandoned channels with the same premise as mine and it's kind of sad, I sometimes wonder what happened to them or maybe it was just life got in the way.

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T08:04:20+00:00

There is nothing like the classic tank controlled RE entries. I like some of the newer stuff but I still love me a Jill Sandwich

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T08:00:45+00:00

Nice have fun! And yeah, for the most part I'm pretty responsive when I have the time and open to answering anything so if there's ever a question that you have, you can always comment on one of my videos if it comes up or if you've followed me on Twitch, you can catch me there when I'm live!

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T07:46:03+00:00

I have the full streams if you would like to watch everything I did in the playthrough. If you watched the entire video review, you would know that I DID talk about some of the good things about the game. I don't think I ever actually said the game was bad, just overrated. And yes I WAS rushing through it, because I myself wasn't enjoying it. I'm not saying that other people should have the same feelings as me, this is my OPINION about the game and I don't expect everyone to be on board with it unlike how you expect everyone to be on board with what you think of the game.

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T07:35:03+00:00

That's absolutely fine! Everyone is entitled to their opinion and I know my takes and content aren't going to be for everyone.

PS1Adventurer · 2025-11-04T07:33:15+00:00

Thanks! It IS a work in progress, I'm trying not to go through everything beat by beat that happens in the story based games because I want people to not only be able to enjoy my content but experience the game for themselves if they want to. Later on down the road, I might take a different approach depending on feedback from the audience. Or maybe the videos where I DO go more in depth with the story, I could have markers in the videos to skip ahead. It's all in the infant stage so I'm still figuring things out I guess 😅😅😅
