Once again.

Alright EVO is after this week. Will the people with expertise in the main games PM me what you know is going on. What, when, why, etc. Rev for instance is the Smash guy. I can handle the Capcom games myself, but the rest will need some work.

Did you get all the Tekken casino info I PM'd you? Never got an acknowledgement that you've received it.

UMvC3 on Vita didn't even go on sale before the discontinued it? I think they literally forgot.
They did literally forget. It wasn't until the game had been off the store for hours that Combofiend edited his blog post to indicated that the game was being delisted that day, not the following week.

loves Arcade Sticks
I remember when the TE first came out, it was funny watching the reaction. Sticks were basically as complicated as this: if they have sanwa or seimitsu they're awesome, and if they're built in a way that makes it easy to put those parts in there, then those are slightly less awesome but still awesome. So Madcatz released both kinds of sticks and it was just going to be cool. But it was funny to see the reaction from people who were convinced they'd suck just because of the Madcatz reputation at the time. It's like, do you really think they're going to fuck up a case and some wiring to house sanwa stuff? Even if the wiring turned out bad that would be easy to fix anyway with all the solderless pcbs that started showing up. So basically, do you trust them to make a box? Even if they weren't successful they still would've been worth getting, when the alternative was to build one or wait for Hori to become available somewhere.

Yeah people can just look at it and say it's just a box with parts. But it was more than just that. Do you realize the amount of new/and interesting innovation we (Mad Catz) brought to the table that has ended up becoming a standard and having other companies reference it into their designs?

I like what we did, I think it's great. But you know what's even better? Making Hori step their shit up.

That's what I'm proud of. People knock on us for doing the same style stick multiple times in a small 3 year period. But what about the other guys who have been using the same style/design for 5+ years?

Innovation is cool, but I honestly like the fact that now that the standard TE stick has been around for a while and has been so widely adopted, it's easy as hell to find aftermarket parts and such for it. If the design was less stable, it could actually be a net negative.

I'm unsure of anything special for Smash in particular so far but I can probably PM you some stuff (like notable players) tomorrow. But if you need some other stuff besides that let me know and I'll include it in the PM.

Is it worse?

Nah, he's surprisingly a pretty shy guy. You gotta trash talk him a little to get him to talk or body his Cammy. When he talks, he's a great coach with a good handle on frame data. Most of the asians in our group are pretty savvy with that data but he sure hates grapplers with a passion, which is why he always picks Sagat against me ;_;

Dudley's overhead is like the most disrespectful looking button in SF4. That match ending looked like Duds told Fuerte to sit the fuck down. :lol
