In the manga, SNK among other companies referenced are credited

If they are using their characters and making profit on it then just crediting them isn't enough. They need their permission, and most importantly to pay royalties to them.

Royalties?  For mentioning them in the manga?  That's horrible.  That's so awful.  I hate this world where you can't mention any products of the past without being sued.  It disgusts me, not to mention how idiotic it is.  I hope they keep giving free publicity to Street Figther and edit Samurai Spirts to Ninja Ghosts or something.  Expecting to be paid for having your characters being mentioned in a manga about gaming is nothing but pure greed.
