Cool Arcade

Poking around the intertubes and I've discoved the web site for an arcade that I'd love to visit. Too bad it's in California. (the last stand for arcades in the US, mainly because of the big fighting game scene) Check out the games list for Denjin Arcade. They even have Japanese style sit down cabinets. So swank.

Barring a couple around here and in Orlando, the arcade scene is properly dead in Florida.

X-Men Arcade Game

Got to play this the other day at a local arcade (yes, there are one or two left).Good times.

BlazBlue - Calamity Trigger

BlazBlue - the Spiritual Successor to Guilty Gear.

Old, but good.

Here's a KOF XI combo video. After watching this, I can safely say that my friends and I are "doin' it wrong"

Tekken 6 / KOF Info

SDTekken (in the 06/19/07 update) has more new info on Tekken 6 - including a (partial) moves change list, images, but more importantly, video. Behold the wonder. Majoria's News also linked to some cool T6 images from gamewatch. Some of the new silly stuff is shown in there too (why does Lei have a line of chickens walking past him?) *sigh* Makes me want to attempt to play Julia again ;_; (to the fanboys - click it for a rare Julia panty shot - and don't say I never gave you anything)

Cyberfanatix has high res scans of promo pamphlets given out at a KOF :MI Regulation A location test.

Guilty Gear Accent Core has cooties

In another stunning display of QA incompetence, Arc System Works released a public apology for the buggy nature of Guilty Gear Accent Core. Bugs should be fixed by the time it comes to the US, as Arc really doesn't need two doses of public humiliation.

New KOF Regulation A character announced

Majoria's News reports that a new character named Xiao Lon has been announced in Arcadia magazine. Cyberfanatix verifies the report and adds that in official ads for the game, there are two shadows behind Ash Crimson and Blue Mary. So, now we know that one of them is Xiao Lon - who is the other? Unknown as of yet. I'm still hopeful for Joe Higashi.

Happy Birthday Capcom

May 30th 1979, Capcom opens in Osaka, Japan. The gaming world would be a sad place without them, so Happy Birthday Capcom and thanks from me personally for making Rival Schools and Project Justice.
