What cracks me up about this is how little people cared for the series back in the day.

Sure it 'hyped' the N64 but it ended up on the SNES and whilst being very good and selling well it was all about Tekken and to a lesser extent Virtua Fighter back then, the whole 3D revolution.

By the time it did come to N64 people didn't care, both critically and commercially.

Now everyones hyped for a sequel to a game no one cared about?

This is in no way aimed at individuals in this thread, I'm just speaking as a whole since this was announced at E3.

First of all, you have no idea what you're talking about. Many people enjoyed the series. Not just on consoles, but on arcade.

The N64 version of KI2 did poorly because of the platform. The N64 was not popular platform for arcade fighters. Arcade fighting fans were playing PS1. Look at Mortal Kombat, it did much better on PS1 than N64.

KI is indeed aimed at some people in this thread and the reason you hear so much crying about KI is because long time fans are upset its only on Xbox.
