The Eye of Typhoon is the second fighting game developed for the Neo.Geo MVS by Viccom, a Korean partner and friend company of SNK. Its release was limited to PC CD-Rom and 3DO versions in 1996, and on the sole Korean market. As for the prototype that was initially developed for the Neo.Geo, it was never published and has yet to reappear…
Thus, The Eye of Typhoon has only reached an extremely limited audience, be it at the time of its release, or thanks to the more recent means of distribution and emulation. An unfortunate fate for a game with such a strong identity and delightful exoticism. The aim of The Eye of Typhoon [ Tsunami Edition / Saiki ] project is to bring this good old arcade production from the first half of the 90s back to the Neo.Geo!! the platform for which it was originally intended!
