Do you actually play regularly Mani?
If you call once a month regularly. Its the only game I play at the arcade when I go, I just can't make it up there very often.

That H.TK feint nerf doesn't ruin much of her functionality does it? Hopefully? I'd assume just tightens the combos up a little.

It cuts the stHP > feint > sweep combo nobody use, but beside that, not really.

This guy?

Yeah that place is rough if you go there at the wrong time. I don't go there in the evening. Usually I just end up playing via link play in the afternoon.

Yes I was talking about that guy. So the stories about the skill level skyrocketing at 6pm are true after all, Mani with the inside information :D

Hardly inside info, more like pity looks from Japanese teenagers. The thing that makes it so difficult is that all the arcade machines are linked via wifi, so instead of someone sitting down opposite from you, you can end up playing anyone in the city. The game usually gives you three CPU rounds before hooking you up, and after that it is merciless. Thus my lack of coins.

100yen coin is basically a dollar, definitely not a quarter.

Daigo has a family and a job too mang.

Well, obviously, but Sako and his wife just had a baby, so he's probably busier than usual.

So are there enough mid level players around to keep it interesting or is everyone a killer there? The arcade scene in Japan seems like such an amazing environment, a lot of players (I imagine), tracking your stats with playercards etc.
funny that they essentially netplay in the arcade, although with Japanese internet that's probably still like you're playing face to face

They talked about it during Capcom cup, that he had to go back to Japan to take care of his wife and his baby.
Almost all the other players stayed in America for a while until the next tourney.
