Naw I was serious actually. Spencer is definitely not a pick up and play character as far as I can tell and most people are playing Marvel at gatherings, so it’s kinda hard to investigate at the moment. He’ll probably get some attention after the game comes out… unless he really is just that lame. But yeah I see where you’re coming from atleast. VS games have a lot of room for unexplored territory.
I REPEAT!!
Order is open til 4ish. My number is 252-373-5642. Call/txt me. I have gotten a few confirmations and those copies are set. I do not want people calling me up tomorrow asking for it. She is ordering copies for sale on Monday and she is allowing me to make a SEPERATE order for myself to distribute so as to not cut into store sales Monday morn.
I also will be having a Marvel party tomorrow.

Spencer has some interesting stuff. I’ve seen a lot of talk in the threads, and I know there are a lot of burned copies out there. I guess I figured they’d have messed around in training mode like I did instead of matches only. Most of what I figured out was while Demo was watching over the course of like 40 minutes.
I have the room Demo
I’m not trying to be anti-Marvel or anything, but Q made an interesting point yesterday when we spoke.
So I’m going to hold off on getting Marvel for a while and observe. If I play early, it will be on Roski’s copy.
Also, where is this Arcana hype going? Marvel is killing it? I’m just about to lay down all that fucking cash for it next week, so WTF?
you can’t just refer to something like that and not explain. What point.
What made you think on holding off about Marvel 3? Also still pretty hype about AH3. Brandino got myself and a few of my friends into the game. I also know the App State gaming club is hyping that shit like mad so maybe they will make it out to some of the tournaments.
What’d you expect?
If anyone wants to play in the Concord area, PM me.
You should just buy it. Everyone is going to be playing it. You not buying it until later will only hinder everyone and you’ll be getting in later than everyone else. The more people playing, the more people learning, the better everyone gets. Don’t bullshit around; hit the pavement and hit it hard.
Or you can just bring it over and me and Whoopi-Q can save money.
sigh
im not doing this again this year. im not gonna have people pissy with me because i didnt get them what they wanted. so im gonna explain this ONE LAST TIME.
i ALWAYS get early copies of games. this is without fail. yes the storeowner also gets games but she is very restricted about what she will/can sell pre-street because 1. she doesnt trust everyone and 2. she has to have copies available to the masses on the actual street date. so when she makes her order she allows me to make MY own order with MY money. im not a selfish person so i share the wealth with the community. some people hit me up WEEKS ago to set up getting a game. others still think hitting me up 5 hours after the order is set will get them a game. i apologize, but NO.
i post about getting the game. i set a timeframe. outside of that i cant help you too much. with that said I talked to the storeowner and YES she is going to have a few extra copies to sell tomorrow after 2pm or so. but i cant guarantee she will be able to accomodate a bunch of walk-ins.
Here’s my schedule tomorrow
9am-12pm: wake up, eat cereal, practice Marvel, wait for FedEx. Once FedEx arrives.
I am leaving immediately for RDU. If we discussed your getting a game please PAY ATTENTION and make sure I have you down for the correct version
stop 1. EmoPrinny (PS3)
stop 2. Mister K (360)
stop 3. Hoc4Life (360)
from there i will be heading back to Greenville
stop 1. Smurvis (360)
then i will be heading back home to Wilson where I will be having a Marvel pre-street gathering. here are the names that arranged a copy in time.
Lucerne (PS3)
Goose (PS3)
TioDamus (360)
I have 10 copies that ARE MINE. Those doing math can see that only 7 are gone here. I cant hold unless someone GUARANTEES to come and get it from me. I asked her and if I want I can get extra but I NEED 100% CONFIRMATIONS. I cant eat that lost $ because this comes out of my pocket.
EDIT: WILMINGTON CREW!! YOU ARE GOOD FOR IN STORE COPIES. 1 PS3 and 2 360 ARE WHAT I WAS TOLD. SHE WILL EXPECT YOU AFTER 2:30 AND THEY WILL BE HELD FOR Q.
Texted you, just let me know.
the bestbuy in wendover has the mvc3 demo for those that haven’t played it yet. also does anyone know a mom and pop or any other store around the triad where I can get the game early.
Hey Demo, :lovin:. No homo.
The point I said to Will was: every time there’s a new fighting game. There seems to be this “FUCK SF4, I’M PLAYING THIS!!!” fad. Tekken 6, barely anyone plays it. Melty Blood, barely anyone plays it (now). HD Remix, BlazBlue (both versions), King of Fighters 12, etc. My point being, I don’t have the time or funds to learn a new fighting game every 3 months. I like to play casual shit, go out and enjoy my other hobbies and dumping a minimum 15 hours a week into training mode to learn multiple games when all of them die in 4 months or are on life support till a major host a side tournament for them isn’t worth my time.
By all means play what you like, if Arcana 3 really sticks around, good for you guys that supported it from day one and I hope to see you beast at tournaments. And I understand a lot of you guys just play all these fighting games because you genuinely like to play them. I’m no different, I fire up Tekken 6 all the time. But this “without any previous hands-on exp. Play this cuz everyone else is” thing doesn’t work for me anymore. I’m only getting MVC3 because (as a Marvel fanboy) I really just wanna play the game and I have a lil’ extra cash right now. Depending on my IRL shit and how much I like it from a competitive POV will determine the rest.
Demo: My bad for getting up with you soo late. I really don’t read the thread that often. But BIG thanks for looking out for Wilmington regardless.
I got a sneak peek at the strategy guide today, and there’s a fair bit of stuff that people aren’t talking about. All I can say is, I’m incredibly hyped to play Dante now.
yay, capcom store shipped out.
Does the guide have frame data? Though it’s probably not all that important in a game like this.
Roski, did you get my PM?
I think people are still interested. I haven’t been posting much here, but that probably needs to change since this is where everyone goes to for the most part…
Though Arcana does have an NC thread, a lot of people who post in it are out-of-state.
NC Love Thread I : Who’s maining Arcana?
I’ll either be at Lucky’s (solely for Arcana) or the Hotel Gathering to support the game.
I totally agree. Like before Arcana, I was dedicated to one game and one game only (Tekken). I found that would be for the best since no matter what, one of two things always happens… (A) People say they’ll play a game then drop it / not play it at all (B) Play a game until the next new game is out, and forget about it. So even though other people ignored Tekken, I’d eventually be in the same boat if I played any other game (besides Super)… So I felt that I might as well just play the game I liked the most (Tekken).
I’m doing the same thing with Arcana. I’ve already said that I would play the game and I’m sticking to it because it’s one of the few fighting games that I really enjoy.
