It seems there will be a update to the characters link on the japanese SF4 website on the 8th. New characters maybe.

If true and this is not some shitty one cart play... I might actually be interested now.

So does this and the newly announced arcade release approximation mean we will see more than just Ken and Ryu fighting in Chun Li's stage on the 15th at AOU? I can't wait to see some videos from this.

:( :( :(

Oh well, I'm still interested, but that would've been awesome. I don't like the fact I have to own multiple copies of handheld titles to play multi when it isn't the case on console, but I guess I'm stuck on this for at least another generation.

I don't get it..
People were like "Please Sega, make a sequel to Typing of the Dead..or some port..and I'll carry your babies"..

They (in some way) do it..

"What the fucking fuck Sega????, you suck so much!!

they're still making a real TOTD2 AFAIK. plus, there were plenty of people who thought TOTD was the downfall of sega too (it was a coincidence, though, honest)

Nomura interview
* At FF7 design period, they were undecisive about how spiky to make Cloud's hair
* Would be happy with FF illustrations done only by Amano
* Likes to draw with just a sharp pencil
* Before finally deciding on a type, there were other Lightnings and friends
* Lightning has goat legs
* Lightning isn't sweet
* Lightning is shadowy
* Lightning doesn't cry
* Aya is a bid more rounded than Lightning
* Versus 13 heroes' clothes will probably be revised
* Buys games based on Famitsu reviews:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

I hope that doesn't include the prince :(

It better do. He sticks out like a sore thumb - they all have suave looking suits and he's decked out like a 16 year old goth kid.

Aya = Parasite Eve 3? Oh... :(

So they're just going to toss all that nice CG they've made for Versus trailers because they want to give him more belts?

Nomura: OMG what a piece of shit! NO SALE!

Nomura said a while back that the Prince's actual design isn't even final yet, and that it may change completely, so I wouldn't be worrying about just his belts, but his face and body too :lol

Does this mean the guys will look like... well... guys? I hope new hair styles are also part of these revisions. Better yet, just take a break from this one, Nomura, and let another designer with less homo-erotic fantasies about teenage boys help out a little.
 
Nintendo should put a similar effort into mario kart as they did with smash brothers.. TONS of characters and tracks.. and tons of unlockables..

the series is so popular.. if they made a console version as awesome as the DS one it would sell even better..

but regadless of what they do it'll still sell millions on name alone now.

i just hope for a solid 8.5+ racer effort wise.. But i know they could do alot more with it
 
WOOOOT IMAS!!! :D

many buckets of lols @ English of the Dead :lol

99 Tears doesn't really seem like a game... at all, but the concept sounds very interesting to me.

Seems like a pretty meh week (early year Famitsu is always a drag), but I can't wait for Soma Bringer and SFIV scans.

I'm arriving late and so a bit confused. Why are people saying this 99 Tears thing sounds interesting? I see nothing at all about it.
