Norcal Regionals 2013 | Road to EVO 2013 Fighting Game Tournament | April 26-28

So excited to head up to NCR tonight! NCR 9 was one of my bestest tournament experiences and I'm glad to be helping out again this year!
 
You know, I am not as impressed with it seeing the latest PAX footage.

The novelty factor has worn out for me already. It might something you'd want to play while drunk with friends or something but even then the jokes and parodies are something you would have to follow in the FGC to understand.
 
who's confirmed for smash?

I am! 8-)

Can't wait. Driving up from Socal in like an hour.

Is anyone going to be streaming all the Smash on Friday?

Supposedly. I think they're trying to work out a stream solution atm.

Might be more that come and register at the door. But 68 entrants for online pre-reg is pretty good, IMO.

It will probably top 100 with on-site reg. Pretty freaking good for a Friday tournament and the cost of entry.

I'm a little wary tbh cause I heard the "smash room" is only 1000 sq ft and segmented off from everything else...and I'm disappointed we didn't get main stream time over KoF and Tekken when we brought in much more entrants (3 times Tekken's and probably much more at door..). Hell, even Divekick got an hour on Spooky.

But I'm going to try and remain optimistic and have a good time. Melee has a way of working things out.
 
Daigo is going to be at the world's biggest cosplay convention. That Choagki 2 or whatever it is called. There are tons of events there and it is being streamed on Nico. I think Japan just had their Golden Week or is having it now, it is considered a holiday and festival time.
 
He was, but couldn't make it cause of something else

Balls....


I'd love to see a long set with him and infiltration.
 
The only time I hear of Golden Week is when Manga fans complain about that week's issue not being out because of Golden Week, and that was last week.

Not just Daigo but pretty much all the big name Japanese players will be at it.

Magic the gathering will also be there. Sp00ky would love to go.

I would love to go there just to eat. They create dishes and dessert based on video games, anime, etc, and it looks real good.

That's cause comics in Japan get leaked like 2 weeks before their street date.
And the double issue was this week, so there'll be nothing next week.
 
Absolutely awful schedule, I can see why every non Capcom player is shitting on it.

In other, more pleasant news, I only have to watch one game on sunday.
 
Chris G gonna win Mahvel and Infiltration gonna win SF4.

Didn't Jaxel set up a page for viewing al the NCR streams or something like that? If so, anyone have a link?
 
That intro was legitimately hype. I wish I could have read those blurbs on the different games though.

Shoutouts to "built in fuck you mechanics".
