[Jinfash]

Prolly Lawyers Just Doing Their Jobs. When News Broke And Upper Management Heard They allowed It. Didn't This Same Thing Happen With YouTube Recently?

Is this a post or a Book Title?

 

[Darryl]

lmao wtf did he do?

nintendo doesn't want to lose their "man sits in line for 2 months for a nintendo console" press. dude probably has a little bit of weight to throw around, believe it or not

 

[Sandfox]

I'm guessing Nintendo's lawyers(or whoever's in charge of this kind of stuff) saw it and told Evo to not stream their games but after the complaints and other things it got overturned.

EVO Staff: Ok Nintendo, we are going to stream your game this year. You owe us a big money hat.

Nintendo: No.

EVO Staff: Fine, we'll pull your game from the stream and put other games on instead.

Nintendo: Ok whatever.

EVO Staff: Really? Umm ok just kidding, we'll stream it anyway.

Its funny because that's actually possible.

How does Triforce have any sort of pull within Nintendo >_> Does his press time really have that big of an impact?

Actually he said the Wii U was the last time he was going to do that.

 

[Revven]

If you're going to tune in this weekend for Smash, definitely check this video out and get hype again.

 

[FourMyle]

Man that sucks. I really wanted to watch KoF13 and P4A pools. Oh well, Smash timeslot will be break time.

Him and Reggie are bros apparently....

 

[xxbrothawizxx63]

Glad they decided to reverse the decision. Will be tuning in.

 

[-COOLIO-]

the internet hit them with the WOMBO COMBO.

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

Yay you are forgiven nintendo!

Can't stay mad, too excited for evo!

 

[WrenchNinja]

Whats wrong with P4A?

 

[Lemstar]

Can't speak for KoF, but P4A is having pools streamed by FinestKO. TTT2 and SFxT are also going to have secondary streams pre-finals, too.

 

[ArchedThunder]

Whats wrong with P4A?

To hype for the viewers.

I'm talking about Jefailey

A very vocal portion of the FTG love to hate on anime fighting games. Because, you know, every other game made in Japan has no anime influence whatsoever.

 

[Avallon]

Color me surprised. I didn't see this coming at all. You're dreaming if you think region locking is going away, though.

That's awesome! thanks man.

 

[Barrel Cannon]

Redemption!

 

[famfrit]

Danm you, Persona 4 arena is awesome.

Pretty much.

Some doofus in Legal makes uninformed boneheaded move. EVO can't get them to budge, so they go public to amass some quick and vocal outrage.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Good to know that.

Well, Nintendo is only company that are still doing it. Sony promised no region lock for PS4, and apparently Microsoft did same thing.

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

yeah, they only call anime "anime" when its anime they don't like.

 

[Exile20]

Fastest turn around I have ever seen, and I thought Microsoft's one was quick.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Glad the decision was reversed.

 

[Galang]

Wow that was fast. I didn't even see the thread before they reversed it...

Oddly fast, especially considering who it is..

 

[Avallon]

I'm aware of the situation, I just don't see Nintendo buckling after having already issued their BS PR.

 

[Harlock]

Whats wrong with P4A?

The guy from the twitter cant live without your pikachu.

 

[BronsonLee]

Whats wrong with P4A?

It's anime, and Viscant hates anime

Despite the fact that he is anime in real life form

DON'T TRUST THIS MAN HE BLINDS PEOPLE

Lot's of stuff, I personally would have given SFxTK the final day slot over it though variety is better.

Good question. What DID Jebailey do?

 

[DAREALGUMMY]

 

[QisTopTier]

Q pls.

No go watch Japanese SFxTK play

Spoiler

Which we wouldn't get much of and we will still see the same boring shit we have lately

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

Lot's of stuff, I personally would have given SFxTK the final day slot over it though variety is better.

now now, let's not say crazy stuff.

 

[Madao]

If Nintendo is actually listening, it's time to get them to end region-locking.

for that we need a popular game in a popular series to not be released in a region.

like million-seller popular since 4-5 guys can't cause a fuss like what we saw today.

 

[Cody_D165]

LOL

GAF never fails to deliver the awesome gifs...

 

[Entryhazard]

Sorry for the noobness, but who is Triforce and what he does?

 

[SmithnCo]

Thank god. That Melee stream is the highlight for me.

I hope nintendo learned from this fiasco.

 

[Avallon]

Sorry for the noobness, but who is Triforce and what he does?

He waits in line and runs a shady fighting game team.

[Dahbomb]

Sorry for the noobness, but who is Triforce and what he does?

He's a manager for a fighting game team known as EMP and he's also a huge Nintendo fanboy.

 

[Exile20]

So what did we learn?

Nintendo does listens to their fan(Still ways to go Nintendo)
Triforce is chummier with Nintendo than anyone thought.

 

[SarcasticD]

Of course Triforce saves the day.

 

[SolarPowered]

Lot's of stuff, I personally would have given SFxTK the final day slot over it though variety is better.

I'm not a big fan of P4A either, but let's not say things we'll regret here.

 

[Ragingnight]

p4a is just bad competitively due to how broken/derpy the top tier characters are. I played a solid mitsuru player that mains the game. I haven't touch the game since maybe a month after release and with 1 hour training mode yu I was able to take games away from him due to how stupid some balance decisions are. Yu's DP being air unblockable and super cancelable? OK. Raging Lion is safe on block? Ok (granted he started punishing it with 2B after awhile, but mitsuru 2B is stupid)

P4A would be a much better game if Yu, Chie, Aigis, Mitisuru just didn't exist in the game in their current form or be nerfed. Chie would need a total rework. Teddie needs adjustments but his gameplan isn't super braindead as those characters.

Its sad that most of the high depth characters are all low tier.

 

[Phreaker]

Wow, I love 180s.
