Fighting Games Weekly | June 17-23 | Nintendoes what Capcan't

So I had a conversation tonight with a dude who was talking about how fighting game players are better drivers because they understand space control and have better reaction times.

Justin Wong can't drive. Argument over.
 
Thanks for watching the eSports hour and checking out the final Divekick character. Sad story, but awesome character.

Marvel players are F1 drivers confirmed. And Smash players when they grow up.
 
How do you play Super Smash Bros with a stick.

Real answer?

Play it through Dolphin and set it to however many GameCube controllers you need. Get some fightsticks (I use a hitbox personally) and plug em in, then make some controller profiles. Playing Smash with fightsticks is like having c-stick smashes mapped to every input, yet you can still have fine control over movement as well!

It's pretty fantastic.
 
The people who talk about divekick like they know about it are awesome. And by awesome I mean idiotic.

<3
 
The npd people don't release actual numbers anymore.

Did you see the Pachter comment that this month's NPD showed the lowest sales since 2000 (the PS1-PS2 console transition)? Still good that Injustice is doing well but that adds context.

Seriously cool tribute and cool character idea.

Just a heads up there's a bunch of good events this weekend with South East Asia going down in Singapore on Friday. There's a stacked lineup with players from all over hemisphere showing up including Justin Wong, Gamerbee, Mike Ross, Fuudo, Tokido, Sol (Melbourne), and more. Plus you get to see people from a lot of regions that usually don't get coverage like Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam and more. Eventhubs did a write up on it http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/...g-stream-monsters-showdown-round-robin-event/

Plus there's Bar Battles this weekend and also Final Strike at Super Arcade on Friday. It hasn't been officially announced yet, but there's a 5v5 San Diego vs. TRB going down that night as well.
 
The JP limited edition coming out in August is nuts. Complete with cab decals and move cards. Not mention the bizarre fact that it's made by a different team. Getting both. I don't really do limiteds anymore but that one I can't pass up. Might nab the limited BBCP just for the Rachel nendroid.
 
I think it's only out for PS3 today and tomorrow for 360 and PC.

PC is supposed to be out along with the PS3 version.

That Popi interview on eventhubs is really insightful on why Infiltration switched to Ryu. 2 combo = game over Akuma, Popi has an OS to counter U2 and Infiltration mauled him in causals with Ryu.

Popi's win is legit. Infiltration better up his shit for EVO cause I want a Infiltration vs Daigo GF rematch.

edit: Infiltration "friended" Popi?? He's been to his house and they are hanging out?? Download initiated.

Thanks for the links. Gonna hit some of these up.
 
Whoa 15 bucks. But oh well, might as well get it now when the MP is populated than later. I'll be on later in the afternoon playing it if anyone wants to co-op this.

So many international players are going to the SEA major. I'm so excited! It's going to be great.
 
Ono to announce something SFIV related at evo.

I assume this is just news about the next patch.

Personally I think it would be better to move on from SFIV. Next gen consoles are coming and a new street fighter is needed.

I doubt they'd announce SF5 at a venue like Evo. They'd probably do it at an arcade trade show or at least TGS.
