Supercade might go down for good [OCT 2014]

Supercade (PC GGPO alternative) closing down Oct 2014 • r/Fighters

source: http://damdai.com/supercade/

"After much internal struggle, I’ve decided to shutdown the server. I’ve spent a lot of money keeping it running over the years, long after I lost interest in the project, and I don’t want to do that anymore. I’m currently in talks with someone to take over hosting duties, but if that doesn’t work out, you can all continue playing online on GGPO! Sorry for the bad news, but it’s not the end of the world, as there are other alternatives.

GGPO (http://ggpo.net)

ArcLive (http://www.suparc.com/) - which appears to have changed its name to Super Arcade?

.

The shutdown will occur in the beginning of October. Thanks for playing! Don't let these classics die!"

ANNOUNCEMENT

UPDATE: Several of you have offered to cover the monthly costs with donations. I will keep the server running as long as the monthly cost of $165 is met. I added a goal tracker by the donate button on the right to see each months progress. If the monthly goal is not met, I will return everyone’s donations for that month and will, unfortunately, have to shut down the server. Good luck!

GGPO isn’t working right now and supercade is. What is going on?

GGPO.net works, but the forums and the service are down. Is it being DDOS’d again?

It’s probably just the hype beasts

It’s not been working for at least 3 days now…

Is 3s even worth playing on Supercade?

No.

You’d have more fun and learn more about 3S by tweezing the hairs out of your ballsack than playing it on Supercade.

donating for the worst port of 3S outthere . lol no thanks.

Yea, Supercade on 3s is weird lag compared to ggpo. Although both aren’t great, I think the lag style of GGPO 3s is easier to play in.

Also supercade has weird port issues even though all my shit is open.
