Capcom vs. SNK: Millennium Fight 2000 (カプコン バーサス エス・エヌ・ケイ ミレニアムファイト 2000) is a head-to-head fighting game produced by Capcom. It was originally released as a coin-operated arcade game for Sega NAOMI arcade hardware in 2000, before being ported to the Sega Dreamcast later in the year.
Contents
Story
In 2000, a special martial arts event is planned through a collaboration of the two most powerful world organizations, Garcia Financial Clique and Masters Foundation. The gala event, it is hoped by everyone, will ease the political conflicts between the two powers. The competition was named "Millennium Fight 2000."
Many renowned martial artists have registered for the tournament. People around the world focus intensely on the upcoming exhibitions, making long-awaited opening ceremony a huge success.
Gameplay
The game is a crossover fighting game featuring characters created by Capcom and by rival fighting game developer SNK, with an emphasis on their two flagship fighting game franchises, Street Fighter and The King of Fighters respectively. With the move to the more powerful NAOMI and Dreamcast hardware, sprites and backgrounds are higher-resolution and more detailed, and special moves and hit indicators have been enhanced with particle effects. All of the SNK characters have had new sprites drawn by Capcom artists. Gameplay is similar to Capcom's Street Fighter Alpha series of games, but it uses a four-button layout, similar to SNK games. Players can choose between two "grooves" that determine how the power gauge functions. Like The King of Fighters, players assemble teams of multiple characters, which fight each other in one-on-one battles. When a character is defeated, the next character in the team takes his or her place in the next round, and the winning team continues with the same character (with a segment of health restored in proportion to the time left over in the previous round). The match continues until every character on one of the teams is eliminated. If time runs out before a character can be defeated, the character with the most life remaining is the winner. Both characters are eliminated in the case of a draw. The roster is evenly split between Capcom and SNK characters, who are divided into "ratios," ranging from 1 to 4, based on each character's overall strength. Teams of up to four characters can be assembled, but their combined ratios must equal and go no higher than 4.
Characters move with and and crouch with . They backstep or dash with or . They jump with and flip back and forth with and . They can "super jump" (a faster and farther jump, trailed by afterimages) by pressing , then , , or quickly. Characters can perform a weak punch with , a hard punch with , a weak kick with , or a strong kick with . Weak attacks are quick but do light damage, while strong attacks do more damage but have a longer startup delay and recovery time. Special moves for each character are done by pairing specific directional combinations with an attack button. Characters can perform a taunt with HOLD START , which is a short animation during which the character is vulnerable to attack.
Throws and grabs are done by holding or when near an opponent and pressing a strong punch or kick button. Some characters have midair throws as well. Grapple moves cannot be blocked (including special moves involving grappling), but a character can escape a throw and take no damage by likewise holding or and pressing a strong punch or kick button immediately upon being grabbed.
Blocking is done by holding the D-Pad away from the opponent. Characters can block while standing, which blocks against high and mid attacks but not low attacks (such as sweeps), or crouching, which blocks against mid and low attacks but not high attacks (such as jumping attacks and overhead strikes). Special moves still do a small amount of "chip damage" if blocked. If characters block too much, they become "guard crushed" and momentarily stunned and vulnerable to attack; the health gauge flashes red before a character is guard crushed. Characters can perform an evasive roll forward by pressing the weak punch and kick buttons (+) simultaneously. Characters are invulnerable during most of the roll, and they can roll through nearby opponents to the other side.
Characters can become dizzy from being attacked repeatedly; they are uncontrollable and vulnerable in this state but can recover more quickly by rapidly pressing back and forth on the D-Pad along with the attack buttons. It is also possible to escape grabs in this way.
Grooves
Players choose one of two modes before selecting their characters, which affects how the power gauge works. The power gauge is empty at the start of each round (though this can be changed to filled in the options).
Capcom | |
---|---|
The Capcom groove is based on the gameplay system from Street Fighter Alpha.
The power gauge is filled by landing normal moves (including throws), performing special moves (regardless of whether they connect), or taking damage. When the gauge is full, it gains a level, and the player can accumulate up to three levels of the gauge. The contents of the gauge carries over between rounds (but not between matches). Every character has super moves that can be performed at the cost of one level of the gauge. These super moves hit more times and do more damage than normal special moves. Every super move has three different levels, with each level costing an additional level of gauge to perform. Higher level super moves typically hit more times and sometimes have other improved characteristics, such as covering a larger area. The level of the move is determined by the button used to perform it: weak punch or kick for level 1, strong punch or kick for level 2, or both punches (or ) or both kicks (or ) simultaneously for level 3. | |
SNK | |
The SNK groove is based on the Extra mode from The King of Fighters '94 to The King of Fighters '98.
The power gauge is filled by blocking attacks or taking damage. It can also be filled manually by holding the strong punch and kick buttons (+) simultaneously, though the character is vulnerable to attack while doing this. The contents of the gauge carries over between rounds (but not between matches). When the power gauge is filled, the character enters "MAX mode," and basic attacks become stronger for a short period as the gauge drains. The gauge drains faster when the meter is filled by blocking attacks or taking damage than when it is filled by manually charging. When characters are in this state, players can perform a super move that immediately consumes the entire power gauge. Characters can perform super moves indefinitely when the health gauge is nearly empty and flashing red. If both requirements are fulfilled (the character's health gauge is flashing red and the character's power gauge is full), the character can perform a "MAX super move" instead that does more damage. Performing a super move when only one of the conditions is fulfilled is equivalent to performing a level 1 super move in the Capcom groove (regardless of what strength of button is used to perform it); when both conditions are fulfilled, it is equivalent to level 3 super move. |
Modes
The Dreamcast version of the game has multiple modes. Some options must be unlocked by acquiring "Groove Points" and purchasing them from the Secret Shop. Groove Points are accumulated during single-player games by hitting opponents with attacks (with special moves and super moves earning more points) and by earning a higher score. Finishing an opponent with a counterattack special move or a super move is called a "Finest K.O." and worth 40 Groove Points. Getting hit loses points. The number of Groove Points earned during a game is shown in the "GPS gauge" in the bottom middle of the screen, with each hit earning a letter rank corresponding to the points awarded (S, A, B, C, or D). The player's total amount of Groove Points is saved to a VMU and can be used to buy "secrets" from the Secret Shop.
- Arcade Mode: A single-player mode where the player forms a team of up to four characters (which must be different characters) and fights a series of elimination matches against five randomly selected teams, then against a final boss. In the Capcom groove, the player faces the crime boss Geese Howard in Geese Tower (recalling the final battles of Fatal Fury and Real Bout Fatal Fury), who must be defeated twice. In the SNK groove, the player faces Shadaloo henchman Balrog, then the dark dictator M. Bison in the Psycho Drive (influenced by the story of Street Fighter Alpha 3). The game ends if the player loses a match but can be continued an unlimited number of times. A second player can challenge the first by pressing START , with the victor of the match continuing the game. There are eight difficulty levels for computer-controlled opponents.
- Vs Mode: A two-player mode where players can choose any characters and any stage and battle each other in elimination matches. The game keeps track of the number of wins for each player. The ability to choose the maximum ratio points available to each player (between one and four) and change the ratio for each character (which changes the character's relative strength) and to choose the same character more than once can be purchased from the Secret Shop.
- Pair Match Mode: A single-player mode that can be purchased from the Secret Shop. It is a version of the Arcade Mode where every character is worth two ratio points, meaning teams consist of any two characters. Like the Arcade Mode, a second player can enter the game by pressing START .
- Game Replay Mode: A two-player mode where players can play a match (with the same unlockable options as the Vs Mode) and save a replay of the game to a VMU, which can be loaded and watched again at any time. A replay takes 30 blocks of storage.
- Training Mode: A practice mode where the player can choose any character and any opponent. The player can set the whether the dummy opponent is non-hostile, hostile, or controlled by a second control pad. Non-hostile opponents can be set to stand, crouch, or jump and guarding or not guard. The player can also toggle the health gauge (normal or flashing red) and power gauge (normal or max).
- Network Mode: The Japanese version of the game supported competitive online matches over Capcom's Matching Service. Players could also upload high scores or open the official web site to view rankings and high scores or download replays or color schemes.
- Secret Mode: This mode allows the player to exchange "Groove Points" for special bonuses. There are 77 secrets total, which includes alternate color schemes for every character, alternate versions of every starting character (Evil Ryu, Orochi Iori, and "Extra" versions of everybody else), three hidden characters that can be purchased after unlocking them as opponents in the Arcade Mode and then defeating them (Akuma, Morrigan, and Nakoruru), extra stages for the Vs Mode and Training Mode, classic soundtracks (from Street Fighter II and The King of Fighters '94), and special options and modes (the ability to customize ratio points in the Versus Mode, the ability to switch between dashing and running, and the Pair Match Mode). The game supports transferring save data from a Neo Geo Pocket Color via a Neo Geo Pocket/Dreamcast Setsuzoku Cable. The player can earn points playing the Olympic Mode in SNK vs. Capcom: Match of the Millennium and convert them into Groove Points for the Dreamcast. This mode also contains a list of commands for every character (which can also be invoked for the currently played character during gameplay from the pause menu after pressing START ).
- Color Edit Mode: A customization mode where the player can create custom color schemes for any character. Each character has 15 colors that can be changed (by adjusting the red, green, or blue color bars). Custom color schemes can be saved to a VMU.
There are two game speeds, Normal and Turbo (which can be set in the options so players are not asked every time).
Characters
Note: Move lists assume that the character is facing right. When facing left, and should be reversed.

The roster focuses on the fighting game heritage of both companies. As such, it consists entirely of characters originating in fighting games, in contrast to Capcom's Marvel vs. Capcom and Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes (which features representatives from Mega Man, Resident Evil, Strider, and other Capcom properties) and SNK's The King of Fighters (which includes characters from or inspired by the Ikari Warriors and Psycho Soldier games).
The Capcom side consists almost entirely of characters from the Street Fighter series (with the entire cast of Street Fighter II: The World Warrior present), while the SNK side consists almost entirely of characters from the Art of Fighting and Fatal Fury games and original characters from The King of Fighters. The sole exceptions are the hidden characters Morrigan, from Capcom's Darkstalkers, and Nakoruru, from SNK's Samurai Shodown.
Most characters have "Extra" versions with alternate movesets that can be purchased in the Secret Shop after completing the game with that character in their appropriate groove (Capcom for Capcom characters and SNK for SNK characters). The Extra version can then be selected by holding START while selecting the character in any mode.
Every character has a different color scheme depending on which button is used to select him or her (, , , or ). Additionally, sets of four bonus color schemes can be purchased per character, including the Extra characters, in the Secret Shop (which can then be used by selecting the character with +, +, +, or +). Up to two custom colors can be saved for each character in the Color Edit Mode, which are selected with + or +.

Stages
Stages are chosen randomly for most matches in the Arcade Mode. Balrog and M. Bison are always fought in the Psycho Drive stage, and Geese Howard is always faced in Geese Tower. The hidden characters Morrigan, Nakoruru, and Akuma also have their own stages when encountered.
The stage can be chosen manually in the Vs Mode and Training Mode. The stages for the bosses and hidden characters must be purchased in the Secret Shop first before they can be selected, and they only become available for purchase after defeating their respective characters in the Arcade Mode.
History
Development
Capcom vs. SNK was the second in a series of crossovers between Capcom and SNK, following SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters Clash for the Neo Geo Pocket Color in 1999. It was originally announced as SNK vs. Capcom, before a naming scheme was adopted where the Capcom-developed titles would be titled "Capcom vs. SNK" and the SNK-developed titles would be titled "SNK vs. Capcom."
While all the SNK sprites were drawn completely from scratch, many of the Capcom graphics are recycled from the Street Fighter Alpha series. With Alpha being designed for Capcom's CP System II arcade hardware, this means they were drawn with a different aspect ratio in mind (384x224 and 12:7 compared to 640x480 and 4:3) and thus most Capcom characters appear wider than SNK ones. The older sprites are also less detailed and fluidly animated and use a different art style with more exaggerated proportions compared to the newly drawn sprites. The sprite for Morrigan, which dates back to Darkstalkers: The Night Warriors in 1994, has especially drawn criticism. The sprites for Ryu, Ken, M. Bison (Vega), Evil Ryu, and Akuma (Gouki) are the exceptions to this as they were remade for this game.
In the options menu, in the middle of a song a voice can be heard saying in Portuguese: "Kaiser, uma grande cerveja. A cerveja dos momentos felizes," which translates "Kaiser, a great beer. The beer of the happy moments." Kaiser is a beer manufacturer in Brazil, and this audio track was a rip from commercial insertion on Jovem Pan FM radio. The rip was claimed by RadioDJ.com.br and released on Napster in late 1999.
Legacy
Capcom vs. SNK: Millennium Fight 2000 Pro is an update to this game. It would later be followed by Capcom vs. SNK 2: Millionaire Fighting 2001.
