[quote name='MarkMan']Tons of ways around it, not sure it can be discussed here.

My copy should be in soon. Got fastest shipping possible on that and two arcade sticks X_X

That shipping was expensive X_X[/QUOTE]

Doesn't it come out the 11th? Where is the cheapest/best place to get it anyway? I don't usually get imports, but now that I have a way to play em on Wii... I would just plain feel bad "acquiring" this game. I want to buy it.

Also, is there any way to use a decent non-GCN/Wii controller? I can't use sticks :(
 
[quote name='BlueSwim']More Street Fighter IV news. It's looking like there is going to be a feature where you can play the arcade mode on home consoles while having a matchmaker mode run in the background. When a match is found jumps right to it as a way to recreate the arcade experience on home consoles. Also, CAMMY!!![/quote]

That's fucking brilliant. No, really. Kudos, Capcom.
 
Yeah seriously! That feature is gonna make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside :D
They should have like a quarter with your next opponent's gamerpic on it show up in the lower corner of the screen too.
 
TvC comes out on the 11th, but Hong Kong always gets it a few days to a week early.

When I went to Hong Kong earlier this year I got tons of games early that way! (Both NTSC and JPN releases)...

Jim: Yes it supports GCN controllers, according to earlier Dengeki and Famitsu articles from earlier this year.
 
so yesterday i fought this ryu player like 4 times and i always lost. for some reason whenever i played him i could never get my DPs out. wtf.

then i beat him this morning. yeah. that's what you get.

my record is 110-60 something. i'm still stuck in mid 250s. i'm starting to like akuma, he seems mega broken. but if i play for serious, i can only play ken. i'll try to pick someone else but my cursor magically gravitates to ken.

i still gotta learn jump jab xx hurricane too.

cammy vs. honda is the most unfair thing in the world.
 
[quote name='asianxcore']How did that happen?

Last time I checked on the scoreboards you only had like 30-35 losses.[/QUOTE]lol is the game that broken? I havent had that many loss for ages!

I cant even check friends scoreboard... my game freezes up all the time...

but last I checked I was like 220-95... I lose to Blankas, Ken air throws, turtlers, and ppl who jump too much
 
I need to discover this magical method of playing Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom on my US Wii.

I love Nintendo's standpoint on imports basically being "NO, fuck YOU!"

fuck, that's gonna be one expensive game... the thing that I hate is that I'll feel like a chump if it comes out on PS3 and 360 later on with better graphics...

" Street Fighter pre-order goodness is piling up. Gonna be some happy people..."


I wonder what they mean by that? The Ryu headbands? Didn't they also have some sort of an art book that you would get if you reserved it?
 
[quote name='Jimbo Slice']Also, tried image search and Wiki to find out who / what Yami is (in Okami) but to no avail. Anyone have a link or something?[/quote]


I haven't beaten Okami (because a friend has had it for over 2 years) but apparently it's hard to get pics of Yami because it has multiple forms (4 I think?), same for TvC.

Maybe! The last time I checked was maybe 1-2 days ago.

Last time I checked I was 133-55. I haven't been able to check since I haven't updated my PS3 with the new System Update.

I really want to import TvC, but as many have mentioned it would be expensive to import due to various reasons.

Also Yami is sort of a lame choice for a last boss. I remember being tremendously disappointed when I got to the end of Okami and ran into Yami. It has different forms such as a big bubble/ball thing and so on. Think of "Master Hand" from Smash but only more lame.

Too bad the last boss of TvC wasn't Orochi from Okami. How sick would that be?
 
[quote name='JEKKI']that's Nico Nico, it's a japenese youtube which is 10000x better than american youtube coz they got the sheeyit, especially when it comes to game videos.
[/QUOTE]

I love Nico Nico!
 
[quote name='suko_32']I love Nico Nico![/quote]
Nico Nico is bomb, they got some hilarious mod gameplay.

[quote name='kainzero']cammy vs. honda is the most unfair thing in the world.[/quote]
Why is that? I haven't gotten the game yet and I liked to use Cammy in CapcomvSNK2
 
Yami in TvC.

If it's anything like their Special Editon of Street Fighter II HD Remix that was slapped together, I'm going to be sorely disappointed.

Gamestop is not getting an artbook. They're getting a Ryu headband that was given out at a convention for free to people before... basically getting leftovers. They were getting an artbook, but canceled it because of printing conflicts or something (although I heard this from a GS manager, so take it with a grain of salt).

I read somewhere that Capcom is starting up a partnership with Gamecrazy and that just pisses me the hell off. There are no Gamecrazies in my area, but there are Gamestops everywhere.
And if they do an awesome preorder bonus at different places, it'll suck. I don't want to have to buy the game at three places to get all the goodies.

I think I'm just whiny and bitchy because we've not been getting any substantial information about Capcom releases. No news on the Limited Editions of Street Fighter or Resident Evil. No news on preorder bonuses. No news on the sticks or the pads. And by the time we get this info, I will have already wanted to preorder. Just tell us what we need to know, goddamnit.

SF4 and RE5 are my most anticipated games of this year/next year and I know squat about where I should order them and what I should order WITH them. That's an issue.

Ah! I knew I wasn't imagining that art book.:lol::lol::lol:

I'm interested in seeing what Game Crazy has up it's sleeve if that rumor rings true.
 
I was supposed to do sum stuff this weekend, I was gonna take my mom with me too in case she also wanted to do something,

I got Street Fighter Alpha Anthology in the mail today.

I've been playing A3, and I really like it. I suck bad though, even worse than I do at SF2:HFHdSLKDJFLSDJFL:KSDJFLKJ.

What's a good website to learn combos and strategies and such for the street fighter games? One for the KoF's would be nice too, I'm baaaaad at 11.
 
[quote name='Inf^Shini']Why is that? I haven't gotten the game yet and I liked to use Cammy in CapcomvSNK2[/quote]

That's because Cammy in CvS2 was practically top tier, if not top tier (can't remember my tiers exactly right).

I wasn't aware of the tiers in CvS2, I haven't been into fighters for awhile, I became a FPS guy, but all these fighting games make me think about jumping into the foray again.

I also loved using Rock, he was the man in that game, but Kyosuke was pretty fun to use also.
 
[quote name='Inf^Shini']I wasn't aware of the tiers in CvS2, I haven't been into fighters for awhile, I became a FPS guy, but all these fighting games make me think about jumping into the foray again[/quote]

Yeah, she's good. Fast movement, good poke game, standing HK into super, practically unpunishable specials if spaced well, and smaller frame.

If I remember correctly, Bison (Dictator), Sagat, and Blanka rounded out the top tier.

Yea she was fun to use, god I hated Sagat and Blanka, Sagat especially.
The one thing I remember from that game was Shin Akuma (CPU) was friggin' hard to beat, but I'm not that amazing at fighters either.

Where'd you get that awesome pic?

Oh yea, and pacquiao #1!
It's funny, I'm half latino and half filipino, but I'm rootin' for Pacman all the way.
 
[quote name='GuardianE']That's because Cammy in CvS2 was practically top tier, if not top tier (can't remember my tiers exactly right).[/QUOTE]

She's high tier. She's an absolute beast in K or C. I've seen lots of great/local players run her in P as well.

Tiers in CVS2 work a little differently than other fighting games, mostly because the same character in a groove that doesn't benefit them, will be worse than one that does.
 
[quote name='heavyd853']Cvs2 is great. I love watching Rock players do the 360 throw into the lvl3 or max Kick super, so flashy![/QUOTE]

A-Groove Rock= Command Throw (Activate)-----> Corner CC = teh funny

On a random note, I realized today I bought Arcana Heart on release with the full intent to learn it from the ground up. Never did :(

Maybe I'll start sometime soon.

Rock was probably the one character I had ever really learned in any fighting game because he was just awesome, plus he can punish a whole slew of moves just with a high counter (or was it the mid counter, I forget...), and his deadly rave is sooooo fun to pull off, sometimes I liked to go right into a raging storm just for the hell of it.

Excellent show for you guys today. My guest is 5 Star who you know from his 3rd Strike beastliness.

Manny the Mexicutioner!

CvS2 Shin Akuma was hard for me as well. But I too suck at fighting games...
 
 
I hard talk in the Pacific North SRK Forums about the Team NorCal Vs. SoCal face-off. Shit should be great.

If I remotely knew how to get a podcast on my Zune, I'd listen to podcasts a LOT more often :)
 
[quote name='Inf^Shini']Why is that? I haven't gotten the game yet and I liked to use Cammy in CapcomvSNK2[/quote]
'cause honda can beat almost any of cammy's moves with little precision required.

Picked up CvS2 for the Xbox yesterday. Going through the 1-on-1 Arcade mode with Cammy was a breeze until I ran into Raiden and U. Rugel or whatever his name was. Had to quit and take a break. How come every SNK boss fighter is a cheap son of a bitch? Hell, why are ALL bosses in fighting games cheap sons of bitches?! U. Rugel, Jinpachi, Raidou, Genma, Alpha-154, whoever that asshole was at the end of KOFXI, I mean c'mon! At least M. Bison and Tengu were pretty close to reasonable.:evil::evil::evil:

*psst* Abuse general move counters and Cammy's S.HK->Super.

I actually LIKE the cheap SNK bosses, heh. It makes them look badass. I remember the first time I fought against Rugal in King of Fighters '98 and he dragged me across the entire arena to death. I was like, Hooooly shiiiiiit.

Tiers in CVS2 work a little differently than other fighting games, mostly because the same character in a groove that doesn't benefit them, will be worse than one that does.[/quote]Absolutely. Isn't Joe's groove supposed to be K or something? I mean, he's obviously good enough for me in N, but I was just wondering, since I've been contemplating switching to K altogether, which means I would probably have to learn like, 2 other characters aside from Joe entirely.

[quote name='Inf^Shini']Dammit, I gotta go boot up CvS 2 now, I got the itch :/

It's like my favorite fighting game next to 3rd Strike/Guilty Gear/KOF Series :p[/quote]Agreed. Although, KoFXI has my heart right now, as well.

Man, fuck what's-his-name in KoFXI. Bitch does nothing but cover the screen in projectiles, then does his super that causes like, 125% damage, or some shit.
 
Yeah there's a few videos of some beastly ass retired Rock player owning the shit out of homies in cvs2, I really wish I remembered his name. He does it like twice in one match.
