Capcom Vs. SNK 2: Mark Of The Millennium 2001

This game is similiar to its prequel, but it adds more characters to the roster and you can now select from six different fighting "Grooves" (instead of two):

• C-Groove: This groove acts like Street Fighter Alpha 3's A-ISM. You are given three levels of super and you can variate the strength of the super depending on the button you press. You can airblock, dash, roll, safe fall and counter attack.
• A-Groove: This groove represents more of a mixture of Super Street Fighter II Turbo and Street Fighter Alpha 3's V-ISM. You can perform supers but they are limited to level one only and custom combos (the groove's main feature) are available. The custom combo can be initiated by pressing HP and HK at the same time, they can also be initiated in the air. Another neat feature about this groove is the ability to "hyper cancel." Instead of cancelling a special move into a super, it actually works the other way around. This only works on level two supers, and at any time during the duration of the level two super you are welcomed to cancel into a special attack.
• P-Groove: This groove acts much like Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike's engine. The main feature here is the parry technique. You are given one level of super and you are limited to using one level three super. However, your super guage gains a little faster than the C and A grooves.
• S-Groove: This groove is much like the engine of the King of Fighters series. The groove's main feature is the desperation super. As your character's life bar starts flashing (when it is low) you essentially gain unlimited level 1 supers. You can charge by pressing and holding down the HP and HK buttons.
• N-Groove: This groove allows you to go into "MAX" status. Once you initiate this (pressing HP and HK at the same time), your defense and offense rises. You can also initate level three supers in this mode, but outside it only level one supers are available.
• K-Groove: This groove's main feature is the "berserk" or "rage" mode that the character goes into (similiar to the ones in the Samurai Shodown series). The meter fills up incredibly fast (it fills up when you take damage or block an attack) and once it initiates the character automatically starts turning red. At this point the character's strength increases significantly and the defense is raised a level.

This game is often errorenously referred to as "Capcom Vs. SNK 2: Millionaire Fighting 2001," as a result of bad Japanese-to-English translation, by fans of the series.

This game uses Sega's Naomi hardware, which is JAMMA compatable. It is not at all difficult to convert in any cabinet equipped to run Capcom's CPS2 or CPS3 hardware.
