Soul Blade [PS1] - play as NUGI-TAKI (unused character)
This is a play-through using NUGI-TAKI in the PS1 version of Soul Blade / Soul Edge. Read on below for more information...
Nugi-Taki is an unused gameplay character, which means that she is an unplayable character in the game.
The video is structured into 3 sections:
-- 1st section will show Arcade Mode being completed with Nugi-Taki;
-- 2nd section will show her Command List after the credits;
-- 3rd section will show Diver being selected in Edge Master Mode and locking the game
Here is the information about the character:
===== About NUGI-TAKI =====
---- Nugi-Taki is the version of Taki who only appears in her endings. She appears in the parts where she is using the hammer to make the sword.
---- Predictably, she has regular Taki's moves and her Command List.
---- Under the lifebar, her name is 'TAKI'.
---- On the character select screen, her large portrait is the generic hidden character '?' image.
---- On the versus screen, her icon is the generic hidden character '?' image.
---- When you complete Arcade Mode with her, she does not have an ending. It just goes straight to the credits.
---- She does not have a voice. However, when you fight against Soul Edge at the end, she actually adopts and has Soul Edge's voice. I'm not if this happens outside of Arcade Mode.
---- Regarding her voice, she uses/copies the voices of the previously selected character. So for example, in Arcade Mode if you selected Rock, then changed your character to Nugi-Taki, then Nugi-Taki will use Rock's voices. This seems to carry over to other modes in the game.
---- She has no announcer name voice. Which means that if you win a match with her, there will no voice after the announcer says "The grueling battle ended with the victory of ......"
---- On the versus screen, her name text does not show the hyphen. Instead it's slightly flawed.
---- If you select her in Edge Master Mode, she freezes the game after the messed up intro.
===== About PS1 Soul Blade =====
The PS1 version of the game is one of the all-time greats on the console, and is one of the best 'conversion/port of an arcade game'. Aside from the loading times (which are very short anyway) it's virtually arcade perfect. It helped that the arcade original ran on hardware that was already based on the PS1 hardware.
The PS1 version has tons of features that are not found in the arcade original. For example, the port has 2 extra remixed soundtracks, new character costumes, new weapons, cinematic endings for the characters, the superb Edge Master Mode and more.
