Probably on the Anime Topic that I don't follow but rev2 and BEST GIRL BAIKEN

i'm excited to try both of these characters and then probably not play them because one specific mechanic on each of them doesn't click with me

Throw softening, super moves, and juggles were all considered "scrubby" and pandering by the WW/HF OGs back in the day.

considering throw softens are basically a direct response to someone yelling "but I threw you first!" when they didn't, this makes sense

If two players throw on the same frame in ST, the victor is determined randomly. In that context it's a little understandable

even ssf2 is too fast for capcom japan, maybe it would be better as a turn-based game.

perhaps fight by mail, give you enough time to get your footsies right, think about it a little.

Rev2 will be a large update and include new moves for the entire cast along with balance changes.

It still has to be released on PC, and there is zero reason to expect it'll come out on PC at the same time as consoles given the last two Xrd releases.

I'm genuinely confused who this switch sf2 game is for. SF2 and the snes in general are like 8 years before the target audience for the switch were even born and if it's a nostalgia piece why is it slow as gently caress when sf2 turbo was out on snes first and (iirc) sold more than super did the year later?


in ST damage and stun values are somewhat random so sometimes you can do that sweet combo -> dizzy -> combo 100% combo and sometimes you just can't

cool game tho

The problem wasn't the sounds, it's that the frameskip method also rendered the sounds too quickly, which is why everybody's voices are so high-pitched in ST.

dunno if any game where some but not all of the cast gets a reversal for 1/9th of their total meter that leads into a lengthy 50% combo on hit & free pressure/mixup puppet shenanigans on block can be good, regardless of the quality it's relatives have

e: I tune in & fist thing I see is a dio pulling off the post ko timestop glitch that lets him auto kill someone in round 2, so I guess it's a good game after all

It's for people who have a hard time knowing the difference between Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat.

It's for people who think fighting games are cute.

It's for people who want the Nintendo Switch.

Honestly the switch could be a really good console for fighting games. Just because of the portability and the ability to prop up that screen anywhere makes the idea of bringing your console to a friends house or somewhere public a pretty easy and simple idea.

NeoGeo games are confirmed. Anyway I think a Nintendo vs Capcom would be cool. Maybe Nintendo could pull a Bayonetta and have Sega create Virtual Fighter 6 exclusively to the Switch.

Namco has been involved in the development of Smash 4 and I imagine their role is in character and system balance, and the Switch version will be a balanced, final version of the game's gold release on one disc you can just buy and play with no patching, the way I understand Tekken games to work. Truly, these are exciting times for gaming enthusiasts of all stripes.
