I believe the company in charge of the netcode was GSS located in Japan, looks like they didnt do a good job with it, maybe lack of QA, negligence or who knows what but the netcode is pretty crappy, maybe they intended to create a new standard netcode for there franchises which at the end didnt work and now they just planning on fixing it to keep using it for future games.

My mistake. I never played it in the arcade.

Regardless, my point still stands. She's been in more games, total, than any of the other missing characters and is a major part of the franchise, regardless of how you choose to dismiss her worth.

I'd like other characters to be in there (Yamazaki, Blue Mary, Geese, King, Yuri, Heidern, etc) but she's the one I miss playing the most.

Also, "fan-service"? C'mon people! Who here beats off to fighting game graphics? Let's be honest. We're not talking about DOA Xtreme Beach Volleyball here. Gimme a break with that crap.

Edit: My wife just read my post and wanted me to point out that Mai is her favorite character, and that she finds the bouncing boobs amusing, not hot. I'm sure lots of female KOF fans like Mai. My wife certainly isn't the first one I've known. I had an ex who bought a Saturn, import KOF '97, and a converter, just cos she liked playing Mai so much (and Iori, but mostly Mai). Mai is a fun character.

So true.

My wife was really disappointed that her favorite fighter, Mai, was not included in KOFXII. The argument that 'fan favorite' Mai is wanted for her large chest and ass, and solely for those reasons, is false.

thing is mai is MOSTLY known for her boobs even though she is a fan favorite. whats the point of having mai though if your a console owner who plans on playing KOFXII online. imo KOFXII is just fine but if you want to play online then your pretty much screwed.

Those are arranged combos, every character has those kind of combos that look great.

I was expecting tournament videos of people using Mai.

*shrugs* I don't need to search for them, you are the one trying to make a point here, not me.

Just pointing out my expectations of your post.

DUDE, you posted fucking "running in the opposite direction" shit. That kinda crap has been around since KOF added running and TONS of characters have silliness that can be exploited in the same situation. That doesn't mean DIDDLY SHIT in terms of her tier-ranking and effectiveness. *98 Rugal probably has a 100% while the opponent runs to the opposite corner, but he still sucks gravel.
