i'm excited that it has regional pricing, going to give it a try for that alone. haven't been in any of the betas though so don't really know what to expect

As of a few days ago, every character (except Sailor Uranus...) has a starter guide written! Pluto was the last to be added as she's undergoing some advancements thanks to a dedicated main of her named Virus. Thanks to O-RANGE, Inva, Legs, BowserBrowser, kan kan mikan and Virus for writing for their characters! While there's still a lot we have to cover in characters advanced strategy, this is an amazing point to get to. There's never been a better time to get into the game!

I figure the best way to start off the Sailor Moon S subforum is with an infodump on the game and some links if you'd like to learn and play! Bishōjo Senshi Sailor Moon S: Jōgai Rantō!? Shuyaku Sōdatsusen is a game developed by Arc System Works and published by Angel (Bandai) for the Super Famicom in 1994. It is the first fighting game that ArcSys developed and has somewhat of a cult following. Since the Dustloop forums went down (which seems to be around 2017 or so, before my time) the game has become quite popular and has continued to grow. Around that time was when the game was finally starting to get noticed and a competitive scene formed. In the early days it was marketed as a crazy, unbalanced kusoge, but over time it has become to be understood as surprisingly well balanced and forward thinking. When it comes to fighting games on the SNES it really doesn't get better than SMS. If you are interested in learning more, please make some posts about it! The SMS community is really eager to grow our game and welcoming to new players. Important Links Moonlight Fight Society Discord Server - http://moonlightfight.com This is where almost all discussion about this game happens. Tournament announcements/talk, character discussion, TAS findings, talk about other Sailor Moon fighting games and many other games too. It's all there. Though I'm hoping that this new forum can be a great resource too, for people that don't like using discord as much. How to Play - https://www.dustloop.com/w/SMS/How_to_Play Information on the proper LAN setup and netplay through a recent fork of BSNES. Wikis https://newchallenger.net/w/index.php/Sailor_Moon_S https://www.dustloop.com/w/SMS The Dustloop section for this game is relatively new, though myself and some others are working hard to make it even better than the NewChallengers wiki which we can no longer edit. You might find some information there that hasn't been ported over yet, like static hitbox images. But the Dustloop has a lot that the old wiki doesn't, like matchup information for each character and starter guides for most. Koushun's Videos - https://www.youtube.com/@紅春-koushun1022/videos The Father of SMS. Made videos about the mechanics of this game and lots of sick combo videos too, way before it was noticed by the mainstream FGC. Tournament VOD archives - https://www.sprintinglegs.com/sms/tournamentslist.php Legs, an SMS community member, hosts a page that archives SMS tournament VODs and brackets going back to 2017. It's an extremely important resource for finding footage of all characters from the beginner to highest level. Godot's Coconut Throwdown Netplay Weekly - https://www.start.gg/godot Every Monday at 8PM Eastern, ran on BSNES.

I noticed that there isn't a subforum for Sailor Moon S, any chance one can get created?
