You should make time to check it out, seriously!
A friend of mine introduced me to the game. I like it. Especially that voluptuous ninja girl. Valentine (hopefully my girlfriend won’t read this lol).
But I have a bit of a priority list at the moment. Marvel, Soul, and then Skullgirls. Don’t get me wrong. I love the style of the game. That bioshock-like decor really gets me going. But you know, I have a bit of loyalty to the aforementioned series. Ill be “seconding” Skullgirls if possible though. And perhaps it’ll win me over completely!
3 of the 4 I plan on focusing on haha, though not any over the other really. Skullgirls is just looking too good right now and with more likely to come after release.
I do think the mechanics being implemented are awesome. All the characters look on-point viable. But call me stingy or shallow I guess, but I never was a person to constantly pick the females in fighting game. Just my preference. Once they throw in a few guys though Ill definitely be on board a bit more. But I will admit, Valentine is making this game awfully tempting haha.
For those that have not seen it yet here is some of the day 2 casual footage that I captured, the rest is getting uploaded. Some of it includes Valentine.

Wait?! It’s an actual palette? I thought it was just Master Chibi trolling us.
I was thrilled when I read that. Mike and Peter have both told me before that I personally would be very happy with Valentine, and I’ve been waiting on pins and needles to find out why. I absolutely cannot WAIT to see it in action. #_^
Since I play platformers and obviously have no idea of what Shimapan is (because I am that lame). Mind explaining this for a poor scrub?
lights up like a Christmas tree
Back in just a sec…
edit:
Okie, back.
Without getting risque, shimapan is basically striped panties, like this:

Now go do a Google Image Search and you’ll see why I love it so much.
Check his avatar.
You’ll thank me afterwards.
After learning what shimapan is, I am also anticipating this Valentine palette. I am also curious as to why no one bothered to pick it.
Thank you. I should of done that. But you know, late evenings tend to make me a bit absent minded lol.
Duckie is going to come back with a wikipedia article style post with a works cited for his shimapan explanation. Should be awesome.
Dammit, I was wrong :[
Be sure to click on “Images.”

Spoiler
Be sure to bring your own tissues.
I could go that route, but I would have spent hours doing… “research”.
And ask d3v. If you show me a picture of shimapan from an anime or manga, I can tell you where it came from who is wearing it.
Because it’s MINE! ME! ME ME ME! MIIIIIIIIIINE!
(seriously, if I’m at a tournament and someone picks that color while playing against me, I will physically clock them upside the head with my stick case)
@Duckie. My girlfriend has a pair of panties just like those…Sadly I’ve never taken much notice of them. But I had no idea that her underwear choice was quite so popular among men of refined taste such as yourself!

Hey, how about those videos HFA posted, huh? Weren’t they something? sweating profusely
Well, if you really want to talk about it, the appeal of shimapan comes from both the rarity and the fact that it exudes a sort of girlish innocence. In the same way that my beloved Zettai Ryouiki is also appealing; it indicates a girl (possibly the ingenue) who, while possibly aware of her attractiveness, isn’t cynical enough to use it yet.
Off course Duckie could probably write a whole paper on the subject.
ahahaha
- Valentine’s intro is immensely sexy, I must watch for hours.
