Is Smash a fighting game? Have we ever had a definitive answer to this question?

The Soulcalibur II HD side tournament at EVO now has a pot bonus of $1000 from the community. Peep it out if you're in attendance.
 
Congratulations on your fine pick of a console. Great games await you.

Such as Smash.

For everything fighting game related, however, there is last gen.

I keep getting pulled back in. I already bought three PS3s and four 360s, I can't keep doing it. P4A2 be damned.


And yeah Wii U is the only console with good games so that's why I bought it. And the deals right now are insane. 200 bucks for the console with Nintendoland, 3 for 2 games at Target. If one of those games is MK8, you also get Pikmin free which also gives you 5 bucks for the eshop, and all of those games give you club nintendo points for more free stuff.

Right now I got:
  • Mario Kart 8
  • Wonderful 101
  • Nintendoland
  • Pikmin 3
  • Skyward Sword
  • No More Heroes 2
  • Shovel Knight

Off-screen play is heaven.
 
Where do people get this stupid idea that thw Tekken team is working on Smash? Last time I checked they just said some people that worked on Tekken were working on it, some =/= the team. Also Pokken isn't real.

post like these just remind me of how 'simple' neogaffers can be at times. I'm lucky I mostly stick to dedicated community threads.

That post was so stupid that it actually made me mad, even whilst laughing. I was tired, and it is leg day, so thanks for that link. Time to hit the gym and channel that rage into some scripted sets.

People need to stop being so consumed by numbers or which game is dead or not. Unless you're an organizer, then why does it matter?
Let the SF savants dream yo, they need Marvel to be dead to claim their superiority.

May every other game people still show up for in masses rest in peace.

The NLBC/Big Two metric on the other page was pretty much the height of hilarity. As if we didn't have discussions here week after week about Big Two being a gauge for Capcom player's adoption of other games. The fact that we're arguing dead and dying just tells you how ridiculous the premise of this argument is.

Just like Chrono Break?

Never heard of it. Regardless, How do you know such a title never existed at one point and was cancelled? But Oh well, there is no official announcement right now so I'll just agree to disagree, nothing more to gain from this debate.

Didn't they announce Tekken 7 at some Korean arcade trade show a while back or am I totally misremembering things?

Last Tekken related announcement was Tekken Revolution, nothing has been announced since then.

If you're grouping Marvel together with the other "dead" games then I'm already satisfied

Square trademarked Chrono Break in the early 2000s, everyone assumed it was a new Chrono game & got super excited and kept waiting for an announcement that never came.

Wasn't that because of the majority of the Cross developers leaving Square like right after that game was finished? I mean if you're going to use a dead trademark as your primary example, you should at least consider that Nintendo has a pretty noteworthy track record with releasing/announcing games shortly after the revealing of a trademark.

Last year's numbers were inflated. EVO was 3 months after release so you still had the players trying it out deciding if they were going to stick with it and players from other communities who enter everything when a game is new. Now a year old it's settled into it's normal area.

I'm fine with the Injustice number. It's about what I expected. Killer Instinct is a big surprise. Impressive.

I'm sad I always want NRS numbers to be good. Looking forward to seeing quality matches though. People seem a bit razzled about Aquaman these days metagame/spectator wise. I really hope the matches in top 8 are exciting because last year top 16 was where it was at and top 8 was a blowup

yeah but marvel's dead
 
The winner of Injustice will earn less than I did for 2nd at MLG. Kind of a shame. Still I'd rather place 7th at EVO than win most majors.
 
Since I guess it's OK to announce now, I was selected to do commentary at Evo for Marvel. It's a huge honor to get to talk to the people, especially on the biggest stage of all and I'm very thankful.

From Viscant facebook.
 
The difference between 1st and 2nd is crazy in USF4/BB/KI. Its like 2nd place isn't even playing the same game.

Huge gaps like that makes a pot split much more likely, I would think

Not that it matters too much as long as the players are still trying to win. And considering it's EVO I don't think that will be a problem.
