I was telling Bob and the Marin guys this last week, but Scandia is one of the few “big” arcades that doesn’t have SFIV. That’s silly. Why doesn’t the tech just get a Console setup like Starbase and SVGL? Blazblue will probably make money there though.
cause chris isn’t sure that it would make money, you guy’s have to convince him other wise xP
He doesn’t think SFIV would make money? Even foos who don’t even play fighting games, were psyched about a new SF game. Shit, it’s SF, the name alone gets people nostalgic enough to plop their money down to try it out. It’s also being played competitively in MASSIVE numbers right now.
Compared to what? Putting Vampire Savior in a cab? Or how about the 3S/KOF 2-in-1 cab? What about when Hokuto No Ken was put in a cab for a while?
That arcade should be less concerned with having an arcade filled with lots of different titles (obscure and not) and trying to be a mini-Arcade UFO, than spending all the hard earned time and money into games that people ACTUALLY play.
Blazblue
MVC2
3S
SFIV
That setup would be completely logical and fine. You know when something is up with your choices when the Scandia Regulars (and some of Sonoma’s Best Players) would rather drive 2+ hours to MGL/South Bay (as opposed to 10 minutes) than have to deal with the BS.
KOF 12 is 50 cents to play, or 2 credits on your card, I forgot how that works. And Blazblue is 60 cents to play? WTF! yeah. This “new” game they are charging more for, because its “brand new” of course once the continuum one comes out, we will still hear that the “new” game is being played at scandia. Its a joke, I haven’t gone there in 6 weeks now and counting
fucking right and i haven’t bein there in a month WTF?! well bein gettin ready for the tourny when i found out that i have to be in La a week before the tourny so all that practice for nothin
Can’t speak for spanky or DS, not sure of them, but basically the old scandia crew, Me, Tony, Joe, Jaime, Alex, Randal, Travis, Wen, Luis, nobody is playing that game. Jhi plays it very rarely, I mean very rarely. The confirmed ones I know that play regularly: Hong, Fu, Roger, Makara, dude from lan tourney hahaha (forgot his name)
shit i got’s a mean sakura for you guy’s if you guy’s plan on going to scandia let me-no i’ll be going this friday to put down joe on some MVC2 but i’ll also be down for anything else let me-no xD
Not sure about the rest of the guys, but I should be there around noon for registration. The venue is literally a 10 minute drive or less from my house.
Definitely come out on Saturday in San Rafael if you aren’t doing anything. It’s rare when we get a North Bay Tourney, so we need to support peezy with as many players as we can get to roll out.
Let’s make sure the North Bay has a decent showing of it’s players! It’ll be fun
