So I was bored and decided to count the number of players pre-registered for each game at Power UP, and here they are
UMVC3: 46
SSF4AE: 44
SFxT: 58
MK9: 28
SCV: 25
KOFXIII: 27
VS: 22
ST: 6
SK: 22
For those of you who aren't familiar with older games or lesser known games
VS = Vampire Saviour
ST = Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo
SG = Skull Girls
Just a couple of reminders, first off expect those numbers to grow because tons of people always show up at the door. But at the same time, you shouldn't be disappointed by the early numbers nor the final numbers. They just started 2 years ago and neither of there first 2 tournaments had turn outs anywhere close to the likes of CEO or NCR, let alone monsters like the past Winter Brawl or Final Round(both 1000+). Two years ago when SF4 was the only hot shit, they had 74 people for that game. Last year when MvC3 was the hot shit, they barely broke 100 with 106.
It doesn't sound like it needs to be a 3 day event, but I guess that's not their main concern. Hopefully everybody who attends has a good time and we can stream monster it up. On the plus side, Power Up also adopted the $20 per game model that Season's Beating started last year. So there is more money on the line compared to most tournaments.
