[quote name='asianxcore']No offense Chac, but why would you get a custom 360 stick when all of us here know you have a TON (as most of us do) of PS2 games (imported and domestic). Having it work for PS3 makes all your import fighting games sad :(

Also maybe MarkMan can shed some light on it, but is it even possible at this point to have a PS3/360 stick?[/QUOTE]

It's a custom 360 and PS3 stick, so it's like, totally legit and this way, I can play every fighting game that comes out from now on with it... except for the Castlevania fighter, but I think I can stand to miss out on that.

I've still got my Tekken stick for all those PS2 games, though, so my PS2 fighters won't be that sad. I thought about having it work with the PS2 instead of the PS3, but I dunno... I'd like to get away from the converter just because if it breaks, well... I'm basically fucked, and really, everything coming out now is basically gonna be on the PS3, 360, or PC, so not being able to use it for imported PS2 games isn't that big of a deal... especially when the Tekken stick still works.


Now the key is to find the right picture for the stick. I've found some potential stuff, but I gotta get as high res of an image as I can.
 
So originally, I was going to do half of my student teaching in Australia. However, our school is most likely opting out of that program this year, so I'm going to student teach in............
JAPAN!

I should be there in July of 09'

Maybe I'll hangout with Cheapy lol

Dude, that'd be totally ghangsta. You'd be approximately the most thug-ass teacher in the country.

You gonna teach them how to low Forward into Super? Oh wait, it's Japan.
They already know it at age 5.
 
Thanks for all the well-wishes everyone, will definately post up when I meet with the Teaching Abroad advisor. You can essentially go wherever you want though, so it's more or less a done deal.

Meh on Akuma, like Chac said we didn't need another Shoto. I just hope that this opens the way for more characters in the game then we knew about.
 
[quote name='Chacrana']Even I'm starting to doubt that we need a third shoto character.[/QUOTE]

Wow. Chac saying no more Shotos? :)

Congrats Jim!
 
I'll agree, shotos are one of my favorites too, but I'd like to see Akuma play differently or just a new character entirely.

Also, congrats Jimbo. Sounds like a great opportunity.
 
[quote name='asianxcore']Wow. Chac saying no more Shotos? :)

Yah, I know. But c'mon, I mean, apart from a couple minor things, Ken and Ryu are the same fucking thing. I can understand having both of them just as a pleasantry, but Akuma? fuck that. So he has air fireballs - I want some variety plz. And not a charge character!
 
3 Shotos doesn't bother me. There are some pretty significant differences between them and as much as I think stories in fighting games are very secondary, all three of them are major players in the storyline. I'd only get pissed if they were all just MK-style palette swaps.
 
[quote name='dragonjud']What happened? You changed your mind about selling?[/QUOTE]

Naw, I'm in Florida right now, and I was gonna ship that shit from here, but I kinda forgot it. So the auction's gonna have to wait... I'll relist it probably like... Tuesday.
 
That's what I decided, yep. I'm gonna go ahead and order up that stick today.

Though the "..." after your last sentence makes me weary.
 
No tears for the weary!

But it is a good choice, are you still going to get custom artwork on it? You have a much bigger canvas than the Fighting Stick EX2. Also are you going to button plug any of the buttons to have 6, or do you like 8?
 
super late for SC4 but...should i get that reg edition for $44 from a CAG or the PE for $76 from BB? i mean, i rly want the DLC but idk...help?

EDIT: im taking about getting it on the tripple
 
I heard someone say that the PE version of SCIV dropped to $59.99 at their BB. Probably YMMV, but I think I'll check my BB in a few days.

Heh, the bigger canvas actually makes things more difficult, because most of the pics I have are tough to cut into that wide of a picture. But it's fun to look for stuff... definitely doing the custom artwork . I'm not going to button plug any of the buttons, just because I like how it looks to have all 8 button holes taken up, and if I wanna play an SNK fighter Neo-Geo style, having 4 horizontal buttons is good.

But yeah, back two years ago when I got my Tekken stick, I was like okay, yeah, if I decide to stick with the stick (lol, puns!) I'll get a custom down the road... I stuck with the Tekken stick a lot longer than I thought I would, since I figured it was basically a Wal-Mart brand stick when I bought it, but yeah, it's time for me to step up.

And as strange as it sounds, when school starts, ima have a lot more free time that I can fill with fighters, so this is definitely the right time to be doing this. I was worried that there wouldn't be enough games to use this for if I just got a 360/PC stick, but now that I'm planning to get the promo supremo, I really have no doubts.
 
Any Ippo or Ashita no Joe fans?

joe2.jpg


AWESOME
 
Aaaahhahaha, fuck yeah. I wish they'd release Ashita no Joe in the US, because I've never seen that shit, but Hajime no Ippo is off tha chain.

Totally worth the 3000 yen admission price.
 
I wish it came out here too... I started watching/reading Ashita no Joe because Ippo manga was dragging on... I jumped in and I was hooked...

Yabuki Joe >>>>> most.
 
Yeah, I heard the Ippo manga turns into like... near-super power shit after a while. Makes me glad the anime series ended at a good time.
 
Ippo would kill Joe.


They've released Vol 1 of Joe Vs. Joe, which is some stupid spinoff of Ashita no Joe. I haven't heard good things about it though.
 
Ippo did kill Joe in the simulated 1 vs 1 match (via custom engine of Victorious Boxers 2) where Morikawa and Chiba both gave their input/thoughts before hand.

I think they featured it in the latest Shonen Jump.

It was a pretty close bout but only lasted 5R. Ippo wins by knockout.
 
So far yea, it's only been announced for Wii. Some people thought this was fake, but it was in one of the Dengeki magazines as well. X_X

I'll ask a few of my Capcom connects, but seriously, there is very little chance this will come out in the US :(

Raises hand

"WHAT IN THE fuckING HELL SHIT CUNT?"

Only announced for the Wii? The shitty Wii? That is fucking stupid. I can deal with it being Japan-only because I can just import, but this had better come out on a real system...
 
[quote name='heavyd853']So MM, whats this junk I'm hearing about TXC coming out on Wii only or something!?

What the crap![/QUOTE]

This would be horrible if true.

There are ways to play imports on Wii, so that's no biggie for me... but the CONTROLLER IS NOT FOR FIGHTING GAMES! Can you IMAGING trying to do qcfs et al on that damned d-pad?!

PS3 please and thank you.

Seriously... even the Classic Controller isn't adequate... the d-pad on that thing is awful. I mean, I guess you could buy the stick for the Wii, but buying that for one game? Seems stupid.

Either way, though, wouldn't the graphics have to be dumbed down significantly to work on the Wii's decade old technology? I think that if Capcom's serious about bringing the game to the Wii, they're intentionally trying to produce the least satisfactory product possible.
 
lol since when is Wii not a real system??

the Wii's graphics are fine, all the games I've played on it with the exception of Trauma Center were all 3D polygon type games, so I'm sure it can handle tatsucap jus fine.

and yah get a stick! hella shmups on that system man
 
Got a new 360 and SC IV also.

I'll be on sometime tonight fi anyone is game.

So far I am diggin' the game. I already made me a Xena and Gabrielle custom character as well as She-Hulk.
