I can get in as a player. I play fairly often wit the top players in Central CXalifornia and beat a lot of the mid-tier players who got invited. I just haven't asked to be on the list like some of them have.

On one hand it's good practice and on the other I should probably just save money for Evo.

Its probably better to save the money for EVO, you'll get even more experience there due the the large amount of competition there, also its Vegas man, you gonna eat delicious food and drink great liquor/liqueur,
if you drink that is.
. There's always a next time!

Any Canadians going to EVO next week? Hoping someone could pick up some silent buttons if there's a booth selling them.
 
Did anyone notice at the bottom of evo.shoryuken.com that Nintendo is listed as a sponsor?

To get hyped or not to get hyped, that is the question.

The former. Why would they even throw money at EVO then? They're probably gonna do something right after Smash Top 8.

Likely doesn't mean a thing. They probably got Nintendo's OK to stream, is all.

Yeah, unfortunately that's probably all. The deal probably went something like "you can stream it but we need to be listed as a sponsor" or something. Or maybe the EVO staff just felt like listing them as a sponsor since they were given the OK, like you said.

One can dream they'll actually do anything for EVO though.
 
On the flipside, WB or NRS aren't sponsors, but Boon is counting down to Saturday on Twitter with MKX themed tweets, so anyone could still announce or bring anything regardless.

also snkp is a sponsor, 2.5d kof14 confirmed

Do we know if they'll have a booth there?

Eh, I don't know. If we actually knew if they actually gave money or not to get that spot, then we'd be able to give a more concrete answer.

If they throw me Smash 4 WiiU demo is all good

Don't! The community would shred the game to pieces!

Sadly that's my exact same though. Would be surprised if we even got a representative from Nintendo to show up, let alone a demo or trailer or whatever.

Anyone wanna play some ultra? Either XBL or PSN is fine with me.

Woops, thought I was posting in the Ultra thread. Well, whatever.
 
A MK9 side tournament is being organized for EVO on Saturday. Pretty cool since all the top guys will be there and the NRS community will be done with the IGAU tournament Saturday afternoon.

Reigning IGAU champion KDZ is not attending. So there will be a new champ. He honestly didn't have much of a shot at repeating anyway but still.

what're the most active 360 fighters? i own ultra, hdr, 3rd strike, and mvc2. only interested in on demand or arcade, so mvc3 is out.
 
I haven't played a random in Marvel in ages. It always leaves me angry. If you want Marvel matches, we can always play sometime.

Thanks, if you have the chance to play this weekend I would appreciate that.

That's pretty much how I feel about Marvel. I might stop completely after Evo.

Yup. Alongside starting game development after Evo, school will lower my time to play games in general (I'm already taking a heavy load for fall quarter and plan on adding another class) so I might just stick with Smash 4 and maybe USF4.

Is this some kind of birthing simulator or something? Doesn't sound like something I'd be into.
I think you're thinking of Conception II, instead.

Under Night coming to the US.
Aksys is going in hard this year.

4 fighters in a single year...
awwwwwwwww yissssssssssss.Still keeping my import pre-order, though.

That's later than I would like but at the same time, there's a shitfuckton of anime fighters coming out over the next year.
