I checked, but I couldn’t find the date of Hempfest. I was actually thinking about you specifically when I did this too.
Uh, no? Not really? I don’t know anybody who prefers to play HDR over ST because it’s easier to play. To me it seems widely played because it’s the tournament standard.
It seems to me that we don’t see a lot of people breaking out the Dreamcast and sticks very often; there are a lot more people who play HDR (or classic mode) both offline and online, and that convenience is a big factor in that - do you disagree?
Can we not turn this into one big giant ST vs HDR debate
Brent… I love you
count me in kk and kervins room.
NaMDARRRRRR
we used to use dreamcasts all the time no problem before hdr became the standard, remember? oh wait
Does “all the time” mean 1 or 2 years? Can’t forget the PSX and PS2 versions :lol:
Classic mode would be cool, but since people don’t want to mess with that either, I guess it’s pointless.
i might have to try and get in on this lol wolfpack reunion room + kervin?!
Dont be retarded, having two consoles & two different sticks is a hassle…geo is not saying which version is better he’s just saying its more convenient for everyone involve…
Reading comprehension, tard. Alex is saying it was never a hassle. He was actually there and part of the scene, remember? Just let it go and let the thread get back on topic.
Well back then there was no 360 & no SFIV…There’s going to be a huge turnout for NWM…Doing both consoles & stick would cause headaches…Just stick w/ 1 system if possible…Not unless you will provide the extra setups & sticks, oh wait you just steal peoples money, who am i kidding…
Do you really not understand anything anybody posts? Nobody said “Dreamcast ST at NWM, we demand it!”. Elias just said now that HDR is no longer EVO standard, there’s less reason for people to play the version they like less. You jumped in to defend HDR when nobody was attacking it. Geo participated in logical discussion. You should follow his example. If you’re going to be juvenile and make irrelevant personal attacks, PM me. This thread does NOT need to turn into that.
This isn’t even about HDR or ST, so i dont know where you got im trying to defend HDR. If you want to go back to ST for NWM, geo & my point is that it will be quite a hassle having to switch out consoles & bringing two different sticks & who knows how many people actually have a dreamcast stick. This will turn off potential people from competing cuz of no sticks. If you stick w/ HDR be it remix or classic you would have less headaches…
The thing is we need to keep SF2 alive. I really hope Brent won’t abandon it like EVO did.
Battle for Seattle is going to be Arcade only ST, May 28th-29th. So everyone practice up your legit ST skillz and settle it in May the way Capcom intended.
Haven’t heard of this. Where? And who is running it?
It will be in Hotel Deca which is in U district across the street from the neptune theatre, it is a part of a new expo, Seattle Retro Gaming Expo.
The tournament part is largely autonomous, but im going to be running it…so far confirmed games are Arcade ST, MK 9, MvC3, Blaze Blue CS. If KOF XIII gets released freaking ever it will be included too.
is this not an evo thread?
but ghrrk we’ll see because I think its

I’m not trying to have hella people in my room
You don’t/didn’t see a lot of people breaking out dreamcast and sticks because HDR is/was the tournament standard. Dreamcast is IMO the easiest console to lug around and hook up wherever. Helluva lot smaller and lighter than xbawx and ps3.
I’m not arguing that it’s more convenient but in case you missed the memo a lot of us ST players don’t enjoy HDR as much. We were not playing it because it was more convenient, we were playing it because we kinda had to if we still wanted to play SF2 competitively.
Like kuenai said, all I’m doing is pointing out that when HDR was newer, all the crying was about how we had to play HDR now. That obligation is gone. All I’m saying. Super turbo revival, come see me son. Now before people get more upset because we’re cluttering their topic, take it to the ST thread or PM me if you still don’t understand the point I’m making. I know you like HDR and that’s totally okay. I was really talking to the people who hate it. I didn’t say shit about making ST the tournament standard. Relax.
