#365DaysOfVGM Day 180:
Dear Falling Angel [Boss Stage] (The King of Fighters ’99: Millennium Battle [1999])
This final boss track is one I feel never got a better rendition ever since, even “Cutting Edge”, which I love in its own right, but ultimately misses what made this one special. It’s essentially a total redo of Omega Rugal’s King of Fighters ‘98 theme, taking that track’s best traits and carrying them over for extra mechanical spin this one’s got. How much you value intimidation factor versus sheer energy in VG music will probably determine which one you like more, with “Dear Fallen Angel” focusing on the latter aspect more closely, but they’re both catchy in their own ways regardless.
Those “whirr” and “steam” sound effects are cool and all, but they take a backseat compared to the even cooler yet underrated, old-school Bass. In fact, one of its solo(s) single-handedly starts one of the better Electric Guitar melodies and compliments it wonderfully whenever it comes into play. The Drums sound like the typical Techno drum but not quite 100%, giving the track an energetic feel during the less intense sections. I believe that all of this together with the other electronic/”mechanical” sounds, creates an engaging melody of triumph over a major yet artificial obstacle, such as Krizalid himself!
And before someone mentions it, I don’t know enough about the “NESTS Saga” to talk about it. It’s a fighting game story anyhow; a genre I’ve still yet to find an impressive story in, because no one’s been able to properly separate canon from the playable roster whenever necessary. I’m just here for the cool music, the last thing I need is age old discourse. You can look forward to more NEO GEO action in the list later down the line!
(Length before loop: 2+ minutes)

On the 23rd of September, twenty-four years ago, The King of Fighters '99: Millennium Battle was released for the Neo Geo AES.
It is the sixth installment in The King of Fighters series, introducing a new story arc known as the "NESTS Chronicles" which is centered around a young man named K', who is formerly associated with a mysterious yet threatening organization known only as NESTS. The game introduces several changes to the established KOF format, most notably an assisting character labeled "Striker".
SNK had originally planned to remove main characters Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami, who had previously appeared in earlier installments of the series, from The King of Fighters '99, but they ended up as hidden characters instead. The popularity of Kyo's previous incarnations resulted in him being given "clones" that wear his original clothes and perform his moves. SNK had difficulty balancing the age of the characters and teams.
Critical response to The King of Fighters '99 has generally been positive because of its fighting system and its use of Strikers. While the game has sold well, overall sales have been less than those of the series' previous games.

I cannot recommend enough starting game series from the start. Both because if you get used to the clunky gameplay of earlier ones, the later ones will be easier (from experience, going the other way just makes the originals seem IMPOSSIBLE) and also bc it does in fact help w understanding the story. Also because honestly old games are so cool
#twist rambles#like. if i started with the wit/cher three (which i did) and was not patient enough to learn the mechanics of 1. i wouldn't have experienced#my fave game in the series. if i got into kof with like 13 or 15#i wouldn't want to play 95 or 99. due to them being hard as shit. but im so glad i DID because the plot in those is very good#like. idk i think more people need to play older games when theyre accessible to them. i dont want to see hyper realistic+#games everywhere. when are we gonna post game sprites that are like 20 pixels maximum and be like wow 😳 i want her#all of that to say. emulating helps a ton w branching out w stuff and idk. just play older games and experience them#i will never feel the stress i felt when playing certain atari games EVER bc those are insane. anyways god. long and rambly but i think more#f/e fans should be lusting after the rly old guys. where is the hype for like saji <- does not know if ppl care abt him or not#or like. barts/bartz. anyways. yes please go emulate and also experience old games. I promise theyre fun and still worth playing#and it will expose u to the worst bullshit mechanics known to man. i love old rpgs and ols trpgs and i wouldn't have known that if i didnt#look into older ones. and thats very cool for me. nes rpgs were always daunting for me. and for me to be enjoying them this much? its cool#sorry. i will ramble in the tags for 50 years. its my job.
