Fighters Megamix music during fights

[segaaaa]

Does anyone find it extremely annoying how the background music tracks during fights in Fighters Megamix keeps restarting to the beginning at the end of every fight/round? In most other fighters including Virtual Fighter 2, the music tracks keep seamlessly playing at the end of one round to the start of another round but not in Megamix, at least not in the Japanese import I have.

What are the U.S and UK releases like in this regard?

this sounds like the japanese ver. i think the uk ver fixes this but i never tried since it’s pal optimised and i have a japanese model saturn.

Pal version do the same, and it's very annoying.

Surely I’m not alone in seeing this game as a missed opportunity?

The idea of a Virtua Fighter style game featuring a selection of Sega characters is very tantalising, but it seems to have largely been wasted on obscure characters from lesser known AM2 IPs.

Sonic and Tails would have had much more appeal than “Bark”.

Alex from Streets of Rage would have been a great addition and would’ve appealed to MegaDrive owners, they could’ve based him on Jacky and given him extra/different special moves.

Joe Musashi from Shinobi modelled on Kage would’ve been a great addition too.

Oh well

YES this is extremely annoying, think this or another game was bugging me with this recently and then I was surprised (and happy) when it didn't happen on Dead or Alive. Although the matches are short by default in that game and I always mean to make the fights longer as I love the music..

[segafan2000]

Are there settings to increase round duration and decrease damage to mitigate this?

It wouldn’t stop the music restarting, but I’m guessing you’d hear more of the track being played each time.

Also, obviously the graphics are rougher than VF2, but is it me or are the graphics tougher than Fighting Vipers too?
