I watched BB top 8 at CEOtaku. Wow, Nu has absolutely insane pressure.
UGC isn't gone... Yet.
What city are you in? I visited San Jose after an hour commute to see what it was like and it was shit.
Their cabinets had messed up sticks and buttons, they had Continuum Shift 1, they didn't even have Super Street Fighter update, mostly all old machines. Terrible.
BBCP upped the bullshit and is much faster than CS and CT.
CF seems to fix some of it but it's still faster than before.
If I want to play I go somewhere else or at local. Round One in Northern California is ass.
I'm in Socal, so the Puente Hills Mall Round 1 is the one I go to. The machines are new, it's just everything there costs too much.
I mostly spent time playing rhythm games there until they start getting more fighters that aren't on console.
One other upside about an all-anime major: people are too busy with their waifus to steal shit.
The pricing seemed comparable to Japanese arcades... if you were buying $50 worth of credits at a time. Which only really makes sense for regulars, but they're also the people that need it the most. The bigger issue is that some games have some but not all of the functionality enabled, which makes doing events in something like Beatmania IIDX or Sound Voltex even more of an awful grind than it already is.

Great doa discussion steam at: http://www.twitch.tv/primedirectivemultimedia
Listen and hear them pick each other's brains

I heard they're aiming to get Ultra and other more recent fighters by the end of the year. I've known the manager and he knows how important those versions and stick care are. It's a lot of hand-wrangling politics behind the scenes from what I gather though.
I am just surprise because from what my friend who live there tell me he says that the shopping centre there is dead and Round One was supposed to help revitalise it.
Told me some of the machines disappeared from opening till now too. Ended up just bowling the rest of the time.
It's a shame since it could be good, but it start out weak and is weaker than some Golfland near the area.
I'm glad that NorCal has other options like Gamecenter. Hoping they update to Pendual but Spada is good update.
It's good to hear that manager is taking it seriously. Getting some exclusive machine to differentiate from other local places is a good step. Maybe it will have a nice makeover next time I am able to visit down there.
Like one way to best differentiate is to modernise and not have one game per cabinet. Go do what Sega cabinets and Taito cabinets do in some arcades now and have multiple games in a single cabinet where you can put in credits and choose a game to play from.
Give customer more variety. It might be harder to license but it is worth the investment since you want to modernise.
This SEGA All Net PRAS Multi is what I am talking about. This station has GGAC+R, XRD, Caldarius Blaze, Dengeki Fighting Climax, etc.
Taito Nesica and Sega ANP Multi cabinets have become the standard for like 4-5 years now.

The grand finals of this were godlike. I'm fiending for Tekken 7, looks so much more fun than Tag 2

I've actually spent most of my fighting game time playing Street Fighter recently.

people get stabbed over some of those
Mike Z was on the 2BFP podcast this week. At the start he tells a story about demoing SG at a booth next to the SFxT demo. Apparently Mike looked over and noticed SKill was looking bored at the booth, so he jokingly asked if they wanted to switch. Seth just looks over and says, "You don't wanna watch this game."
It's the usual podcast, Mike is just on it talking about FG stuff a bit.

TLDR: Manchildren still salty over a non American winning EVO.

he didn't enter a tournament so whiny babies scream for no reason. this is what it looks like when a game's scene is in its death throes.
No,not yet. There's still Oomba and World 8 in SoCal anyway. E-Sports arena should be starting soon as well.

kbr should've just done the full schedule and told champ to hold the L

He ended up blocking champ on twitter, and champ then proclaimed that he won.
SNK's localisations were AMAZING. I hope someone finds out who this person is someday.
Yeah i don't think Ono consulted with Seth before announcing SFxT
It's been used as a badge of honor on anime Twitter to be blocked by him.

What is anime twitter? Like a collective or a specific account?
Imagine a mix of Anime fandom, anime fighting game players, channners, and stuff like that. It has ups and downs.

Agreed, this is but one of many absurd translations from their 90s era, mind you if that is from World Heroes 1 or 2 then it is by ADK, but if their translators were the same as SNK...
EDIT: Also Geegus sure look like the Senator from MG Rising lol.

This isn't far from the truth sometimes, heh.
It's many accounts loosely joined by a central hivemind.
This is amusing to me, since some of anime twitter got mad at me a couple months back for talking about people I'd blocked.
We should send one of our own as well. Someone who exemplifies everything about the Gaf FGC. Someone like shaowebb!

Anyway, the Fchamp and KBR stuff is basically everything we don't need in the FGC. It's gross we let this kind of harassment fly. This is what Anne talked about ages ago. It's gone far beyond fun and games into the territory of totally unacceptable behavior. I'm not surprised at who instigated it either.

Channers? Is in 4chan?
What initiative is he trying to get investors for? Team Spooky, NEC, EVO?
Didn't Fchamp go LTG in that shit talk vid?
Doesn't surprise me that KBR was not amused by it, considering his current state.
Fchamp strikes me as some weird mixture of Fanatiq and LTG with a pinch of shadiness.
Would like to know what Arts battle plan actually is. Having some pubs like Capcom, WB and BN backing him would be good too. A "yooooo esports" sadly won't cut it, I guess.
Doing a comparison pic between the Ti 2014 winners and some EVO 2014 champs might be a good start. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
