Namco X Capcom - Valkyrie

[loquehacelvicio]

Valkyrie Densetsu

[doubleedgeMS]

i coulda sworn while i was watching magical whip :wizards of phantasmal forest game promo they had a song that reminded me of this ._.

[ApacheMan2K]

I wonder what of her partner, Xandra.

[TheDreamPrincessstar]

i keep thinking of Valkyrie as Link's and Zelda's Daughter

What? She has the long blond hair,wears green,and uses a sword and shield

[PacGuy765]

she reminds me of Rosalina

[gosia13k]

Team Valkyrie:

Valkyrie,Link,Pit and Sora

[DrGnockerz]

She's like a combination of Link & Pit.

[AlanSmithySculptor]

@DrGnockerz the game plays like zelda too

[AlanSmithySculptor]

@DrGnockerz the game plays like zelda too

[1983parrothead]

@AlanSmithySculptor Except it's completely linear and also has an overhead run 'n' gun feel like SNK's Ikari Warriors series and Data East's Heavy Barrel.

And Zelda has refined elements of Origin Systems' Ultima, T&E Soft's Hydlide and Namco's Tower of Druaga.

[KONPALegendz]

sounds so much like Kid Icarus ^^

[densuo]

Valkyries are awesome.

[KatanaNoNamida]

never thought she will be this good in this game. She's one of my main

[bobfttw]

sophitia much?

[Gunmetalhed]

@bobfttw Legend of Valkyrie came out way before Soul Edge.

[MrVocalord]

@bobfttw Sophitia is a reference to valkyrie hence being able to get her sword and shieldin the later soul calibur games Cassandra gets it in 3 and 4 its called the Valkyrie xP

[DarkSolnea]

It's funny how we will end up hearing this song many many MANY more times in Namco's other games... Like their Tales of games... Eternia and Narikiri Dungeon X more specifically.

[ZeroX1803]

Kurino and Sabine are my favorite team ... they do along Valkyrie the most insane ammount of combos in the game (except for Judas...)

[swordofluminesence]

First time I saw this, I tought she was Cassandra in that alternate outfit from SC2

[AiteFiripin]

Lili Rochefort's great great GRANDMA!!

[Hailstormful]

WTF Sophitia (Soul Calibur)???

[einwolf]

You can tell she's no Sophitia, because her boobs aren't bigger than her head.

[arcturus540]

best song

[edmaster93]

she apear too in TALES OF ETERNIA

[NotWorthyOne]

@edmaster93 And we did kick her ass back to where ever she come from. But I wonder, is she the same one that apear in Tales of phantasia?

[edmaster93]

@NotWorthyOne

exacly

she apear with pegasus jeje

she is a great warior in the tales of eternia

[smashbrolink]

That Valkyrie would be a better romantic match for Link than Zelda ever was.

The couple that slays together, stays together!XD

[TetsuNideji]

Actually, that's Cassandra in Valkyrie Armor.

You know how I got this? Go play SC2 you noobs.

[FrooteyLoops]

@TetsuNideji .-. Ur a noob.

[TetsuNideji]

@FrooteyLoops

no u. y so fruity?

[FrooteyLoops]

@TetsuNideji No you. Why so vegetabley? o -o

[TetsuNideji]

@FrooteyLoops

wut?

[FrooteyLoops]

@TetsuNideji Exactly.

[LordIchikyo]

@TetsuNideji Cassandra in Valkyrie Armor and voicing by Sophitia XD, how ironic XD

[TetsuNideji]

@LordIchikyo

Somebody screwed up, IMO, since Soulcalibur 2 came out before NxC, and this costume is definitely Cassandra's. Then again, it IS namco, and they can do whatever they want with their characters if you think about it.

[KefkeWren]

@TetsuNideji She was from a different game before that. And actually this wasn't Cassandra's outfit (thought she had one similar).

[TetsuNideji]

@KefkeWren

in SC2, she had the same sword and shield as one of her weapon choices as well as the costume for one of her alternative outfits, however since everybody has corrected me, I'm going to go google this, though there's a Youtube video under related called Namco Anthology 2 Valkyrie Scene.

[KefkeWren]

@TetsuNideji She's originally from a Japan-only set of games. I think one was for the Famicom, and the other was an arcade game. Gameplay is sort of a cross between Zelda and Gradius.

[Sepulchure19x]

well sophitia was way hotter in the soul series

[JexMugen]

Link + Sophitia = Valkyrie

[ezone525]

What Game is this music from.

[61theiceman]

FTW MUSIC FTFW

[blitzkrieg030]

It sounds like Kid Icarus because maybe Valkyrie is the alternate identity of Palutena (Pit's Protective Godess in Kid Icarus) That'd make sense... :)

[frankenvonvogler]

Reminds me a lot of Kid Icarus

[zigilist]

This sparked my interest in a lot of old namco titles. There are some bad ones--Valkyrie no Bouken is particularly bad. However, Valkyrie no Densetsu is FREAKIN' AWESOME. It doesn't hurt that this song is in it.

[CidGuerreiro1234]

I'd say Valkyrie is the most powerful playable character in game. She can heal allies, counter-attack, endure a lot of pain and still beat the crap out of everyone. Gotta love someone like that!

[nano69ify]

I thought that was Sophitia from soul calibur :(

[VileVava]

@nano69ify Wasn't it Cassandra that gets the Valkyrie costume?

Sophitia gets the "Ki" outfit.

[nano69ify]

@VileVava ...............wait no? Well it really looks like Sophitia though, she doesn't even look like Cassandra or the ourfit.

[VileVava]

@nano69ify

Yeah but Cassandra is the one who fights with the outfit for costume 3.

She also gets "Valkyrie" as her ultimate weapons in Soul Calibur 3.

[nano69ify]

@VileVava Oh yeah, but This girl has long hair that resembles Sophitia, Casandra has short hair though.

[VileVava]

@nano69ify

Yeah I know.. But they gave Sophitia the 'Ki' outfit... Ki's hair style is more like Cassie's though...

Silly Namco... XD

[archus777]

I'm a little disappointed how unknown Valkyrie is. :/ she's like Namco's first original Game Girl!

[YoshiAngemon]

@archus777 Actually, that title would have to go to Ms. Pac-Man.

[Fairlazy]

This song sounds like the "Boss Fight when you're winning" theme from Skies of Arcadia.

Anyone else feel that?

[No090684]

For those who are wondering about her, she debuted in a Japanese exclusive Famicom(Japanese NES) game called "The Adventure of Valkyrie: The Legend of the Time Key".

On a side note, she has made numerous appearances throughout the "Tales of" series.

[TylightDark]

@No090684

I looked at this video before I clicked it, and I immediatly thought, "She makes an appearance in the Tales series."

Lol, but it's Tales, not Tales of. :V

[No090684]

Either "Tales" or "Tales of" is fine. it doesn't really matter.

[doominator96]

@TylightDark yeah tales of eternia for PS1.

[SlavicDemon]

I wish she was in the cdi games.

[darkniks007]

Does anybody know where she's from, which Namco game is it. Never seen this character before except in this game. For first I thought this is Sophitia for Soucalibur Series

[chompette234]

@darkniks007 Well in Soul Caliber 2 this is either Sophitias or Cassandras alternate costume, but thats about it, her game never made it to America, which is probly why you never heard of her before(hope that helps)

[pifras]

namco meuseum 5 for plystation has it in english oh and its cassandra's costume

[warfire2555]

@darkniks007 in namco Anthology 2 there's a remake made ofr psx of the Legend of Vakyrie, better graphics and some story but is all in japanese

[Loneruler]

When i saw her i thought she was sophitia from soul caliber lol

[theemrx]

@Loneruler

Technically Sophitia looks like Valkyrie, as she came first :)

[wadoludo]

Why so many people talking about Valkyrie Profile? WTF?

[zeo94]

Because they.. can?..

[loomp]

@zeo94 I have Valkyrie no Densetsu on Namco Museum Volume 5 for PlayStation and Cassandra had Valkyrie's costume in Soul Calibur 2 I also hope to get a PS2 Slim from a Japaneses import seller so I can play Namco X Capcom, I like this updated version of the Valkyrie no Densetsu main theme.

[KOkingpinBrawlPlus]

you all know that Valkyrie Profile series is made by Square-Enix i hope

[Azazlam]

no, it was made by enix. not square enix because that would mean square enix made a good game.

[KOkingpinBrawlPlus]

VP Lenneth is the only one made by Tri Ace/Enix which is now owned by SquareEnix. Remake was done by SE as was VP: Silmeria and VP:(the one for the DS, which btw is a great game) Pretty SE still makes quality games (FFX-2 is an exception)

but alas opinions are like buttholes everyone has one. yours just happens to suck.

[Azazlam]

it was essentially a port, not a remake. the second valkyrie profile was sort of a let down, the DS one was good, I'll give you that. I wonder whats next with SE, oh look another faggoty kingdom hearts game.

[SirFuzzi]

TRUFAX, BRO. TRUFAX. I loled.

This exact song is a dungeon song in Tales of Destiny 2, though. I was baffled when I first heard it.

[Hunterskaridan]

hey look its sophia from Soul calibur...

seriously though? she looks exactly the same...

[KOkingpinBrawlPlus]

thats because it is

[navarone4031]

sound like kid icarus theme

[DestructorKoopa]

I once told my friend:

"Do you like Legend of Zelda? Do you like women? Then Valkyrie Profile is for you!"

[MattTheSpratt]

Not the Valkyrie you're thinking of.

[shinobi300]

female link lol

[WolfSyn]

@shinobi300 Lies, Link has a lot more than just a sword and shield up his sleeves... then again... they do both have skirts.

[GaiaX5]

Well, some of these tunes don't really sound like a fight at all, this one sounds like a hero theme, Kolona's is like a workout, not killing enemies (or imposters). But it's the choices the composers make..

[DBZ4brawl]

The song reminds me of kid Icarus game.

[1983parrothead]

Her first appearance was actually Valkyrie no Bouken for the Famicom.

[MusicStarChic]

its sophitia dressed like cassandra xD

[BonThach2]

This song is sound so similar to the original on watch?v=jXuGQ6QZ3Xw

[ChikikyoKONAMI]

Valkyrie is Namco's own version of Link!

[1983parrothead]

The difference between the Valkyrie series and the Zelda series is that Valkyrie is more linear than the Zelda series.

[Ohnogiantrobots]

I would describe Valkyrie no Densetsu more like Gradius than I would like Zelda. There's one direction to go, you mostly dodge along one axis as enemies shoot projectiles at you. You return fire, and can collect upgrades as you go along.

[blitzkrieg030]

@ChikikyoKONAMI without the pointy ears... LOL

[Gabd3v]

@ChikikyoKONAMI I still say its cassandra

[SamusSuperStar]

@ChikikyoKONAMI You mean Pit from Kid Icarus

[ZeroX1803]

@ChikikyoKONAMI in Fact is Link + Samus.

[YoshiAngemon]

Namco-Bandai needs to bring out the TG-CD Version of this on Virtual Console in America! I don't CARE if it costs 900 Wii Points, I wanna play it!

[kain306]

Her image is really like Sophita from Soul Calibur series!

[mansuru]

You mean Cassandra not Sophitia, this is Cassandra's third costume from SC2.

[AcolyteSilene]

Also, on SC3, they have a few pieces of this in the character customization.

[PyroProspectParagon]

Yeah, but the image here looks more like Sophie than Cassandra...just lose the winged helmet and it's a ringer.

[AcolyteSilene]

Go fig.

[DarthPaperBoy]

Yeah. Legend of Valkyrie is one of my favorite arcade games ever.

[TimelordR]

Such a cute warrior, too bad her game never got the attention it deserved in the U.S..

[beraboman]

the arcade game she's from is playable here in namco museaum vol.4 I think; if that helps?

[Rizxkid]

it's actually in namco museum 5. so if you can find that game, get it! :)

[KayTeeArr]

NxC actually inspired me to go look for a ROM of this. Same for Captain Commando.
