Gathering the SS titles together, SNK is taking the aging IP and putting all six appropriately numbered Showdown games onto one little disc; it's being called Samurai Showdown Anthology. With SNK around, there's never a shortage of these Anthology collections, now is there? The latest press release pins the game for a European release by winter 2008; a North American release was also mentioned sometime ago.

Apparently SS6 is in, so... great. In fact, that's the only game in the SS series I need! I can live without the other 5. I've played and re-played them enough.
Oh, and... SF3 3rd Strike PSP FTW?

Is... Is the missing W a throwback to the original US release?

SNK went all the way with their mispelling. They never changed the "shodown"

OMG, yessss! Best SNK fighters ever!
I know other people run some sort of SNK emu on their PSP. Anybody have a good idea how well it runs and a good source for info?

Hell yes. I hope they leave the bad translations intact. That was part of the fun.

I want a localized version of the SS RPG on this.... would make it a must-buy.

Oh, hell yes. I was always severely bummed that game never made it across the Pacific.

You misspelled "Shodown!" Or did they misspell "Showdown?" Hmm...
