Yeah according to my manager, it’s a midnight launch tournament same as the smash tournament so I dunno about this being held at the 21st. If so no manager is gonna take hours away to hold it. Crap hours as it is. Chances are it’s going to work out the same as the smash tournament where it starts around 10 and should end before midnight.

No idea if a set console is going to be used so it may depend on convenience. My store has a nicer set-up for the PS3 so we’ll probably use that. Only the store’s controllers cause it’d be a pain in the ass to open up the case for every guy with their own stick. And you’re gonna be standing in front of a display anyway so how do you expect to use a fightstick?

Would only be base characters since the game’s not even out yet when it’s being used so who’s going to unlock characters for this thing? It’ll probably be a default match (2 wins default time) on a random stage since the stage doesn’t matter anyway.

And who honestly expects to win cash in a store tournament? Hell who expects to get money from Gamestop? It’s hard enough as is just to trade something in for cash. It’ll probably be the same as smash where you get a weird as hell trophy (was a high school wrestler for the store tourney and a karate dude for the district one) and a certificate that you use to get in the next tourney. No idea what the final winner will get but it’ll probably be something nice.

Good luck with those “scrubs”! Employees can’t enter the tournaments :sad:. When did “n00b” get old anyway?

eh, I called my local gamestop, and they confirmed it’d be the 21st. They couldn’t give me any further details beside that, so I’m going to call back in a week or two to try again.

Well maybe you’re right but if so don’t expect many stores to hold it. Seriously I worked 4 hours this week.

Yeah. I did get assurance that mine was holding it. So I’m good with that.

As per your scrub/noob question, it’s two different things altogether. In poker, when I played, there were fish and there were donkeys. Fish didn’t know the correct plays, and were relatively new to the game. Donkeys were veterans, but neither knew the correct play or even cared. Some even knew the correct play, but didn’t care enough to make it, but could easily criticize others.

Same goes for FGs. Noobs are just that. New to the game and inexperienced. Scrubs are people that have been playing for a while, can talk a big game, but in the end lose and whine about their loss. They could improve, but they don’t, because they hide behind this “takes the fun out of it” mentality, or they just don’t want to put in the time to actually get good.

But people are always using the terms interchangeably, but I honestly see it as that.

I want into the Gamestop across the street from the Job (where I got mine preordered)

Not enough Preorders for a Midnight Release, also they say it comes out the 18th and not the 17th now?! :confused:

At anyrate, The chick and dude working told me about the tourny, I didn’t even have to ask about it…I’m pretty sure I got it on lock as well at that store.

17th is the “shipping” date so it doesn’t go on sale until the next day

I preordered a stick from Gamestop online, its now saying that its backordered…fuck i ordered it back on the 7th

Awww fuck now I gotta call off a day. :annoy:

All this time it’s said Feb 17th, why Capcom gotta change it up a day on a nigga?!?!?!

They didn’t change up anything.
That’s how it works. And how it’s always worked.

If you pre-ordered before the back ordered status on the site it won’t matter.

Question…Where is this offical? Or is GS just too lazy to list it on their site?

I wouldn’t doubt, some GS will make you use the console default pad.

Also, if you guys have a gamecrazy in your area. Give them a call, they might be holding a tournament as well?.. because the one I used to have near me usually gave the game away as the prize.
