I would double dip the shit out of this on console and steam and gift copies to friends.
On Max's stream, he mentioned earlier ( someone told him but it could be unreliable) that Ono seems to be there. Is he actually there? If he is, is it just for support or is he actually going to do something.
Nah, it wasn't actually him.
You don't know what you've got until it's gone. To say the FGC was spoiled for choice back then would be a gross understatement.Funny how old games always become everyone's favorite...only when they're old.
People absolutely HAAAAAAAATED the EX games 10+ years ago. I remember the disdain everyone had for these games on SRK in the 2000s.
Now, they create some shiny new models and place the EXACT SAME animations from TWENTY years ago in a demo, and the crowd goes wild, lol.

Arika staff are talking to each other about how foreigners went bananas for Shenmue 3 Kickstarter
They'll need English help for a Kickstarter
Oh snap.

Some of us actually liked them and the jank along with it. SRK isn't everyone.
Obviously there was some hatred but it was interesting.
Once people could get past the visuals, people realized the games themselves play pretty solidly. There's been a wealth of high-level footage from Japanese arcades like A-cho or Mikado in the last few years.

EX is kind of the antithesis of the SRK/high level/tourney experience, but that's part of its appeal. In fact at high levels, it kind of de-evolves into a strategic stalemate with a lot of its match-ups. But what it lacks in strategic excellence, it makes up for it with technical excellence and flashy, satisfying, endlessly creative combos. And the music is the bomb.
And I never got this, lol, I always thought the games looked great. EX1 is of course blocky, but the character models looked much better in EX2.Once people could get past the visuals
But SRK...
Yo there's people playing it live on Arika's youtube. What the hell is going on!?
We also got awesome 20th anniversary mugs too!
But Kickstarter is useless unless they seek Capcom's permission for Street Fighter, I don't think its appealing with just Arika characters.Oh snap.

how did the game feel? Was it as fun as the videos look?

I hope Sony do something similar marketing like Shenmue 3.
Does Arika have the rights to non-SF characters? I know CFN has been posting those profiles for EX characters and Garuda is speculated DLC, but I have no idea how the licensing would work.

Here's a list of Capcom best selling video games:

Do you see any SFEX games on there?
They weren't popular. Sorry.
I know this is GAF, but it IS possible to like SF5 AND be correct, lol.
I know Mikado very well. They play all sorts of obscure @$$ kuso games. That doesn't change the fact that SFEX games were not widely loved or celebrated...until now.
I should know, because I was usually the only one defending them back then.
Pretty sure there are no arcade numbers on there, which is where the games were actually popular.
I went to the arcade literally every day back then, and the EX games were played MUCH more consistently by arcade players than the sf3 series.

And I think it's super cool that people are more accepting of games nowadays that got overlooked for silly petty reasons. I'm also just trying to point out that there's a decent amount to respect about them as games, that there's a bit more to em than just charming jank and Skullomania, y'know?I know Mikado very well. They play all sorts of obscure @$$ kuso games. That doesn't change the fact that SFEX games were not widely loved or celebrated...until now.
Arika's creations were amazing and honestly I'd pay money to play a fighting game with just the EX cast.
Hokuto, Garuda, Skullomania, D. Dark, Blair and even Cracker Jack I had so much fun playing as.
Even the Shoto clones like Kairi and Allen Snider were a ton of fun too.
Now that I think about it, Arika really added a ton of characters to the EX games.....
Some of their later designs were pretty shit tho. Like Shadow Geist, Volcano Rosso and urgh Area
