Dumb anime games are fun but not socially acceptable, like weed, dank memes and arguments about favorite waifus.

Also, I came across this and you know what that's a cool vanity stick.

Never, because there's all of about two people who play her, and her Mizuumi and JP NPB wiki pages are both forever blank.

why does nobody play her? from just fiddling around with her she seems pretty strong damage-wise and her moves are so big... but maybe that's just everyone in this game


edit: oh on the custom vanity stick subject has anyone seen these yet? http://www.b15sdmdesigns.com/
and are there any other custom stick makers left? not just vanity sticks but customs in general. srk was just filled with dead threads.

Honestly? I've got no clue. From what I've picked up from super scant JPBBS translations and english language stuff, a lot of it might have to do with her coming out so late in arcades, and the JP stuff I've read says her super heavy hitting combos are really impractical apparently? She ranks around mid in the tier lists despite everything though so I couldn't give you hard reasons besides hearsay.

That's the thing though, pretty much everyone has touch of death combos.

I think I saw that one, if I'm not mistaken they also did this dumb arcade pad thing. On the subject of customs all I can remember is Giantsword and the guys that did the one I just posted, EFighters (They are/were Keoma's sponsors, local to Brazil obviously).

It's not what you're asking for really but I was gonna link this anyway, it's a small playlist of videos for some of the characters with combos. Some of the videos are more worthwhile than others but it should help be a springboard for learning and figuring out poo poo to try with the characters I have videos in there for. I don't seem to have Saber vids in there for the people asking about her, but I have seen a few, just search Youtube for Nitroplus Saber or something:

Edit: Found and added some short Saber combo videos to the list.

Speaking of Sonico...

Shadow Ninja 64 posted:

Sonico is silly in the best way in Nitroplus Blasterz. Also, she gets 7.1k damage for one meter off her 5A which seems pretty good to me:

5AA(4 hits) 6A jc. j.A(2 hits) dj.A(2 hits) XX j.421A, land j.A(2 hits) dj.A(2hits)A~j.5B XX j.623B(2 hits) XX 421A+B

I found out the hard way that this combo drops on Homura at the j.5B part (she falls too fast). However, you can change the ender to j.2C XX j.421AB and it'll work on her for not much less damage.

I also played around with that combo and the Althea assist and found this pattern that seems to work on everyone and does 8169 for one bar or 9144 for two bars:

5AA 6A jc j.A(2) dj.A(2) XX j.421A, land j.A(2) djA(2)A~j.2C XX Althea, dash, 236A XX 421AB or (C+E~mash A) [8169 or 9144]
- Do 236A as second hit of Althea connects, cancel into either super as third hit of Althea connects

If anyone was wondering if the Mad Catz FightStick Alpha moves around when you use it:

This is why arcade sticks with small cases are bad. It's not very stable even when it's played on a desk. Look at how it bounced when he did Kazuya's CD+3 (the flying kick), which is basically a DP motion.

One of the assists was doing that. The ripples appear for a few seconds, and then those spots get blasted. Get away from your opponents ripples.

That assist also hits the user as well, so you can theoretically combo into one of the counter supers using it.

Unfortunately I think the placement is randomized so it's possible to get completely hosed over by RNG like a few of the other assists in the game.

I don't really get the Tekken console release strategy. It seems like they could port their current game to a console and have a Tekken that people could play on the current generation of consoles and then update that later with DLC or whatever, but who knows

It's weird to me that they wouldn't have ANY Tekken game on the PS4 for that long

Real hurthling! posted:

its kinda nice that they just release the game and you don't need to keep up with updates

Hareda gave an interview in 2012 when he said that character dlc is "against his philosophy" so he likes to put out a complete and refined package for home players after everything has been figured out in arcades.
http://www.gamesradar.com/tekken-dlc-will-never-cost-extra-new-fighters-says-harada/

he's probably leaving money on the table but its good for players and makes his budgeting easier
I believe Harada's also said in the past that the enhanced console versions are funded by the arcade versions. Like, Namco takes a cut of every coin inserted into the game in Asian and Japanese arcades, making both the case and the budget for the updated port.

You spend your rage to do one attack that has different properties depending on character. Some get combo extensions others get super armor etc.
