How much of a pain in the butt is it to get that Puyo on an American Switch?

you need to create a Japanese eshop account (easy as long as you do it from a computer first so you can set the account region to Japan) and then buy a prepaid eshop card (seagm, japancodesupply, play-asia, and offgamers all sell them). You can't do direct funding unless you somehow manage to trick the system into believing your CC or paypal's billing address is in Japan

Just bought Puyo on the Japanese website and it should be all downloaded and ready to go when I get home. 2018 is pretty neat overall.

So I've broken my X/LK button trying to escape bronze/silver as a Sakura / new FG player.

Any new thoughts beyond OP on Qanba Obsidian vs. Razer Panthera? I'm extremely unlikely to ever mod the thing and the aesthetics don't matter. The existence of a $200 fight stick in my apartment at 30 year old says enough. Any major differences as PS4 only person?

It's legit. I don't know a drat lick of assembly or whatever, but there's also some asset stuff (unused sounds, original MIDI data for some of the music) and a pre-release build of N64 Trilogy among that pile. Kinda neat!

Pick the one you think looks prettier. Iirc the pcb on Panthera is a tiny bit faster once you update the firmware.

You can use the Panthera as a lunchbox since the top can open without needing a tool.

Am I the only one that's fallen way off watching CPT events since EVO? I know there's the usual post-EVO lull but in past years I felt like there was at least still buzz about results from majors.

In Training
Jun 28, 2008

I haven't watched a CPT event ever really so I can't say. I have gotten into the habit of watching basically every TWT event though, I never would have considered myself an eSports fan like that though, I've always watched FG events by throwing up like 4 streams of games I like, but this is the first time I've cared about one game to exclusion of others, and it's a game I watch more than I play these days. Tekken is so cool

10 dollars for the base game when it has a f2p model is too much

Usf4 would be more fun if they made all the link windows really big but none of my friends ever want to play when they come by cause its that game none of them can combo in while dbz or whatever gives away 30 hit strings to any masher

I used to play a lot of SFV when it came out and watched it a whole bunch up through..a while past the first Evo it was at I guess? Dropped off playing and watching FGs for a while cause other games and IRL stuff; gotten back in to them since DBZF dropped but I just haven't been able to bring myself to watch Street Fighter. It sounds like a good idea, I load a big tourney stream up, and just don't care after 5 minutes. Not even sure why. Tekken though. TEKKEN! I just binged the past 2-3 TWT events including pools and I'm lookin forward to watching Canada Cup this weekend.
