  1. Who says we couldn't still play it at Evo if it was MLG?
  2. I'm probably just going to wait for R. I've got too much shit on my plate atm. It also took me like 30 seconds to decipher Tad's post. I need a nap.
  3. You told me that you expected me to give a knee-jerk, illogically stupid response for whatever reason. Make me look like I'm snarfing for no reason if you want, but I don't see any other way that can be interpreted. I don't crave victimization because I'm not the sort to remember something like this. I was just pointing out how assholish that came across as. I actually based my statement on the streams I've seen. Their arcades are always equipped with obviously high quality cabinets that even include comfortable seating, and they line the walls. Their tournaments are always packed and well-organized.
  4. I knew the process was expensive, I was just (over)estimating how successful they were by the quality of the establishments I've seen. Thanks for essentially calling me a dumbass. The only thing I could disagree with is your nitpicking. No business venture is considered successful if it doesn't turn a profit.
  5. Double postan, as requested. http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/persona-4-arena-for-mlg-2/ Petition for P4U on the MLG Circuit.
  6. No, but people like to respond when something controversial and honestly kind of silly is said. It either implies that you have some hidden knowledge of the scene that we'd want to know, or that you're just slapping your opinion on something, which could then simply be treated as such. When has this ever happened, ever? If people played games just because other people played them, we'd have no shortage of pot monsters. . . I can't see Japan just hopping on a bandwagon because of 'propaganda', especially when this is the popularity of the games before the Top 10 was even listed. How could an article influence something before it was even released? People are sheep, yes, but only in that they avoid pushing society's boundaries. This is also a massive assumption, and generalizations are terrible ways to make a point. Nobody does things they don't like to do just because other people do them. In any case, Japan fucking loves Persona. I watched a stream where people from all walks of life, including a bunch of women (gasp), sat down and engaged in high level play. Why would you devote yourself to learning a game just because other people do so? That's just silly. Why not? Maybe they just like CSII's meta better than CSEX, where they all just end up playing Swagna. Virtua Fighter is probably the purest fighter in terms of yomi (Or so I've read). I can see it being big. As for validity, this is from the magazine that lists Japan's tier list consensus for BB. I can't see this applying in Japan. Arcades are actually successful there, and heavily sponsored, so it doesn't make sense for them to be unable to afford the machines.
  7. "The latest issue of Arcadia magazine listed the top 10 most popular arcade fighters in Japan from April 2012:" 1 Persona 4: The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena 2 Gundam vs Gundam Extreme Vs Full Boost 3 Tekken Unlimited Tag Tournament 2 4 Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown 5 Super Street Fighter 4: Arcade Edition Ver. 2012 6 AquaPazza: AquaPlus Dream Match 7 Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike 8 Dragonball Zenkai Battle Royale 9 BlazBlue Continuum Shift II 10 Guilty Gear Accent Core XX
  8. That moment when the HD stream lets you realize that on top of chaps, Mitsuru's wearing the Battle Panties.
  9. BS? wat. Adventure Time is the shit yo. Sure they missed out on our shows, but they got shit like Chowder, Flapjack, AT and all that other junk. And it'll mean a lot more to them because those will be THEIR versions of "awesome shows I used to watch as a kid".
  10. We'll obviously have to wear jerseys, too.
  11. I just feel bad if I'm not able put up a decent fight.
  12. I don't think I'll have time for Blazblue. I wanna learn Persona and Guilty Gear seriously, so I don't want to split the effort with levelin in BB. Not to mention I'd have to get the game itself back.
  13. The devs were saying they'd only do a balance patch if they had 5+ DLC characters, and they talked about the 4 DLC characters they had planned - P3 Protagonists, Ramen chick, and an unknown fourth.
  14. P3 Male and Female Protagonist are DLC.
  15. Just so you guys know. . . Come Persona, all your money is mine. You might as well just hand it over and save yourself the effort.
  16. Thanks for the input guys, I think I'mma go with Faust. Lovin all the hype.
  17. Ben-To is crucial for the eternal metaphor.
  18. Would either of you mind giving me a breakdown of Faust and Baiken?
  19. At the rate our turnouts are dropping, it's all we'd need. .
