You can't stop what's coming
There an official (or unofficial) YouTube channel that’ll be posting edited-down videos? I know I can just watch the archived broadcasts but it’s nice to skip the filler

Also totally random wrong prediction: SFVI World Warriors F2P online with the rest of the characters gated

It's a shame multiverse gets top billing and DNF doesn't.

Other than that, I am loving pumped. Very ready to watch an outrageous amount of fighting games this weekend!

I'm excited to see how Sony's EVO is going to be presented this year. I'm glad to see KOF have at least 1k entrants. Sucks that it looks like there aren't any SamSho tournaments happening. Game is still really good.

It's been Three Years. And look at that fuckin' spread of games.

Also, we have a goon-made game at the EVO stage this year with Mega Knockdown on the Indie Showcase, so absolutely hype for that.

Doesnt Sony own Evo now? Theres no way a Nintendo game will ever be at Evo again. Nintendo already hated it being there to begin with.

Half own it. It's a joint venture with Endeavor.

None of those companies have forbidden Smash from being in, but Nintendo likely won't be sponsoring any Smash events for a while what with all the sexual abuse / grooming stories that came out months ago. They will want to distance from that at least presently.

They should have brought in the Pokemon fighting game, but they let that one's hype die too, so welp.

melty since it's not being played on a 13 inch tv in a gas station bathroom for once.

Breakfast! :v:

Actual answer is probably going to be some community stuff in the Vortex Gallery since DNF is supposed to start at 10 or that other channel doing a KOF '98 Exhibition should be cool, SAMSHO pools also start at 10 am, so between EVO1 doing panel stuff and those I'll probably bounce around those for a bit. When does the actual real tournament of Puyo Puyo start cause everyone knows it's not about Strive or Tekken, it's about some good rear end Puyo Puyo and Catherine.

EVO should build a stage setup like a wrestling PPV where it is gas station bathroom themed, so melty players feel comfortable. it can be on wheels so it's just around for melty.

I don't think Puyo Puyo's there, none of the regular TOs felt comfortable going and nobody wanted to sub for them.
