Two fighting game giants, Capcom & SNK, have join together in a Martial Arts tournament that's bigger than World Warrior, bigger than King of Fighters. It's known as Millennium Fight.
The Arcade version.
Released in 2000, Capcom VS SNK: Millennium Fight 2000 is a Capcom fighting game that was powered by the NAOMI Hardware for the arcades. The game is also released for Dreamcast around the same time as the arcade released.
The whole Capcom VS SNK deal started back during a magazine issue of Arcadia magazine. The issue covers both Street Fighter Alpha 3 & King of Fighters 98, readers were mislead because the front cover of the issue that said "KOF VS SF." Because of that excitement, Capcom & SNK have sign a deal to make two fighting games base on Capcom and SNK characters.
Basic Moves
The gameplay and basic moves in the game are more towards the SNK fighting games. The game uses four buttons instead of six - Light Punch, Hard Punch, Light Kick, Hard Kick.- and other technique can be done using combination of those four buttons.
Capcom VS SNK has a couple of basic moves. The First is the Roll mechanic which is done by pressing the Light punch and Light kick simutaneously. It make the player's character invincible and it's also good for evading all attacks.Other basic moves in the game that there is the Throw and Tech Throw; the Throw is done by pressing forward or back on the D-Pad or Joystick and pressing Hard punch or Hard kick simutaneously. The Tech Throw is a cancel Throw that is done by pressing forward or back when the player is about to be thrown. The other basic moves in the game is dashing or running that the player can choose to use in the options menu. The Dash is done tapping forward or back on the Joystick or D-Pad and same thing for the run.
The Sakazaki stage.
All of the SNK characters are fully redrawn for the game and some of the Capcom characters as well. But as for the rest of the characters have not been redrawn; their sprites have been taken from where they originated - Street Fighter Alpha and DarkStalkers. 3D visual have been used for the projectiles attacks and other effects to give the game a unique look.
The stages have special intros for all the stages - which is a bit of a nod to some of the SNK fighting games. Some of the stages have neat little effects; for example, in the Sakazaki stage, when a character gets slam into the ground the roof comes crashing down little by lillte.
Another way to earn VS points.
Secret Shop is a mode in the game were the player goes to unlock all the secrets in the game. All the secrets in the Secret Shop contains more characters, more colors for the character's outfits, stages, EX versions of some of the characters, game modes, music, and many more. The way the player unlocks the secrets is by spenting "VS points" that the player can earn in the arcade mode or the training mode. One cool feature that player can do is hook up their Neo-Geo pocket with a copy of SNK VS Capcom to transfer more points to Capcom VS SNK.
EX Version
Once unlock from the Secret Shop, the player has the option to choose an "EX" version of some of the characters. What EX does is it change up the moves-set - specials and super moves.
Color Edit Mode.

Ratio System
Before a match, the roster is broking up into four Ratio teirs; each character is place in the Ratio teirs in terms of their offense and defense. The player is giving four "points" and spents those points by picking their characters; for example, characters like Ryu & Kyo are in the Ratio two teirs. So the player can spent all four points by picking Ryu & Kyo and have a team of two. Or can have a team four if the player decides to pick just the Ratio one characters like Sakura & Yuri.
- Ratio 1: Weak Offense, Weak Defense
- Ratio 2: Average Offense, Average Defense

The Grooves.
