im not sure if theres streams for each game or not. havent been able to find anything. gonna try to watch a lot of 3s as one does but as im in ET itll be the vods. fucking round ass earth

anyway! city of the wolves, project l, and hunter x hunter will be playable so there should be some good stuff there. sf6 akums might be shown off as hes presumably being released in june or maybe end of may. same goes for the next ggst character as whomever it is releases in may. perhaps a teaser for the next tekken character but it might be too early for that. and could this be the time for the announcement of virtua fighter??? obviously no but what if yes??

Tag

Excited for some fightin' games

Yipes and LI Joe

Let's goooo

Beatrix gameplay for Granblue yassss

As someone who thought the last lion mane Akuma looked dumb as fuck, this one goes hard.

Just got a make a character old and they're instantly cooler.

things should be starting soon

the youtube says 8:30 twitch says 9. it be do :/

when's Melee

3s pools 4am on stream 3

augh

Breaker's Revenge: Chicago announced. i think its an updated arcade version?
https://twitter.com/exaarcadia/status/1784023898033729752

That is an unacceptably loud video.

My speakers may legit be damaged.

If its exclusive to Exa-Arcadia then theres no point getting excited for it unless you actually live in Japan

one day Ill get to play the Gimmick! remake

man watching the 3s vod just make me want makoto in 6. and 5. and everything really :/

Exa-Arcadia also getting a new Asuka 120%
and also a new FG called Daybreak Slam. it kinda looks Western-developed to me

Again unless you are in Japan you have literally no way of ever playing these. Theyve even forced MAME to remove support for older versions of games that they distribute updates for

i think theres 2 asuka 120%s coming. the arcade one and like a remaster of an older one? havent heard anything since the announcement a few years ago so i might be getting something wrong there

day 2 starting soon

Vanguard Princess also coming to exA

A girl in junior high school won the Money Idol Exchanger side tournament. That game is from 1997 so her parents were probably her current age back when the game came out

the new Chaos Code hits arcades this year. hopefully it gets a console/pc release
https://twitter.com/AFGCNews/status/1784424056176984201

Again sorry to say, but if its published by Exa-Arcadia, it will be 100% exclusive to that platform

missed the exa in the trailer :/

although they brought it to some US events which would weird if there were no plans to release outside arcades imo. unless exa came on later i guess

Yeah, this got announced like six years ago but no platforms were mentioned. Covid fucked everything up it sounds like. Then they had a port of the current version on exa in 2020, Im guessing they were satisfied with that arrangement

Admittedly there ARE a very small handful of US locations that have an exa but good luck finding it. Only one I know of specifically is in Pittsburgh

i think the dev's brother dying also fucked it a lot. but yeah i went looking to see if any platforms were announced and nope. i was reminded of that bit of drama at ceotaku 2022 though. that seems to have been the last time it was at an event

Day 3 starting soon

Top 6 for GGST, T8, and SF6. should be getting the Salyer and Akuma trailers and maybe even a tekken

Radix posted...

Salyer

Genderbend

there should be more genderbent characters in fighting games. snk heroines tag team frenzy leading the charge

welli was gonna try to stay up and watch all of gg but since it looks to be having technical issues or something im probably not gonna make it

slayer
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sd-IBjd9Byc

also gonna be a 3v3 mode in s4

tekken 8 s1
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgg0QA9e4jI

new stages, photo mode, new character which probably confirms the datamine and disproves the leak. the leak was better :/

akuma
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_DSF87l8C8

definitely looked better in 5, just having the classic costumes is coward shit, and oh boy its akuma -_-

also fuck blanka and blanka players

There was a separate leak that had season 1 DLC as Eddy, Lidia, Fahkumram, and Marduk , so we'll see. Regardless, glad to see Lidia back! The best T7 newcomer by quite a bit.

Akuma and Slayer look cool, too.

Lidia being back is cool

the other leaked characters, if true, are the opposite of cool

Lidia means I play Tekken 8 now.

no beatrix trailer is kinda weird arcsys, wtf

lidia and those other 2 are the datamine

the leak was eddy armor king, roger, and a new character

either way no kuni, no chloe, no tifa :/

The literal TONS of money Namco would make off Tifa.

Tekken 7 got DLC for 6 years (and Noctis) so I think it's safe to say we'll see Tifa eventually. There's no way they pass up on that opportunity

I was just thinking the other day how fucking funny it would be if everyone was expecting Tifa for Tekken and then they announced Clive instead.

You mean exactly what happened with Noctis?

man we really just need an SE fitegame. well not dissidia. or ergheiz unless its good
