Last time VF was at EVO was 07 with VF5. If you haven’t yet, go to VFDC - Virtua Fighter Dot Com if you want meet up with players and gets strats and such.
Something really remarkable would have to happen for VF to end up in Evo. They generally only have room for the games with the biggest scenes. VF has never really even been a contender for that.
Unfortunately, VF is pretty much dead in the U.S. There’s two reasons for this:
Even when VF5 was new, the scene wasn’t that big (though they were/are dedicated). Ever since Street Fighter 4 and Tekken 6 came out, VF5’s scene practically disappeared.
Sega won’t port the newest version to consoles (VF5R never got ported, and it’s doubtful that VF5FS will be ported either).
Honestly, though, I blame Sega/AM2 more than anything. This is a time in which almost any fighter that comes out gets some kind of attention/following, and for some reason, they don’t want to port their newest game.
Sega is being really really dumb not porting the latest Virtua Fighter to consoles. Basically a lot of what we learned for VF5 ver C is two years outdated and Sega doesn’t care about promoting the game outside of Japanese Arcades.
