I don't think that article is up to date. SNK america is gone and snk japan is bankrupt but they are stilling making games. Their newest game is King of Fighters 2001. It just came out in the arcades. I also heard that they are making a new king of fighters game called king of fighters ex (someone mentioned this on a post before me) and they are releasing the rom. i took this from madman's cafe http://www.mmcafe.com
According to Enterbrain Inc's Arcadia magazine, the home version ROM of "The King Of Fighters 2001" is scheduled for release next year by Sun Amusement Co. In addition, Sun Amusement plans to release future MVS titles to the home system as well, depending on the movement of the market.
Sun Amusement widely became known to the public since its apparance as the distributor for KOF2001 arcade ROMs within domestic Japan. Respectively, Sun Amusement has also announced to service maintenance for MVS machines in place of SNK, and will continue operation of SNK's Arcade franchise, "NeoGeo Land".
People over here in u.s. may not recognize king of fighters but in asia it is way bigger than any capcom game. Even in Mexico, King of fighters is big. So hopefully they will still be making games in the future.
