Triverse writes, "Fighting games are nothing new, we have them on all systems and in a myriad of variations on the theme. The difference is, the great fighting games worth your time are few and far between- though in general the genre is getting better. Drop back over 15 years now and check out one of the few fighting gamest that has strong enough legs to stand on that it is still a blast to play today on a system that wasn’t even thought of when King of Fighters ’96 was originally released."
"With its fantastic D-pad, sharp screen, and amazing battery life when playing PSP and PSone games, the PS Vita proves to be a veritable treasure trove when it comes to the wealth of fighters available for it.
If you ever needed proof that the PS Vita is the console every fighting game fanatic should be carrying in their back pocket*, this is the list for you.
*Note: please for the love of god do not carry a Vita in your back pocket."

NintendoLife: King of the Fighters '96 marks the third release in the popular SNK fighting game series, and while we've already seen KoF releases from both before and after this title, SNK has finally decided to go back and release this pivotal release in the series. With a host of new gameplay additions, many of which help balance the game out and make it a better fighting experience, it's not too difficult to see why this particular title is seeing a release on the Virtual Console.
One of my favourite King Of Fighters titles ever, this was an introduction to my first video game character crush Vice.
