This updated munchkin-fighting sequel uses KOF 98 as its base, colorizes everything and adds the ability to interface with the Dreamcast KOF 99, but has the same limited action as its predecessor

Review by: C. M0use

Same deal as Round 1, just colorized (in limited Super Gameboy style), using more art and music resources from KOF '98, and making a few extremely minor improvements such as "Making" mode, where you take a character through a randomized tournament in which you learn new moves and gain experience and equippable items as you go. 

Kinda fun but still a bit on the clunky side, the fighting engine is virtually unchanged from the previous game.
