Finals today at 7pm (I think).

Momochi still making everyone look like 5 yr olds.
Pretty sure he sees the game like this:



I really enjoyed yesterday. I was sick all day so I got to watch it the whole day.

I'm VERY excited at Snake Eye's Evil Ryu for this year.

"If he picks Ryu, I body him"

"If he picks Sagat, I body him"

Tokido is so funny.

On a technical note he has really figured out the far standing hard punch combos - WOW. And his corner pressure and footsies are better than ever.

I love what I saw today.

Kumite! Kumite! Kumite!

Funny thing is he did a long time ago.

He came back for SF4.

Pretty sure he got into Pachinko or whatever that game is called with the ball bearings.....

Man I wish they would announce when USFIV will hit the PS4. It's getting silly now. It needs to be ready for Evo.

Are there even sticks out for PS4 other than MadCatz?

It's a good point.

Just Madcatz and Hori.

I think that was the whole idea of the announcement about MadCatz being the official fight stick supplier for Capcom.
Clearly they are going to have to supply sticks for Evo.

I have Madcatz.
But they keep selling out.

Hori brought out the HORI Real Arcade Pro V4 Hayabusa.

But looks sold out to me.

Razer only seem to be licensed to make sticks for Xbox One.

And Qanba/Eight Arc have remained pretty silent.
I took a video a very weird looking stick at Evo last year.

Finally there are converters. This one being the one everyone goes on about.

So I guess the question is whether they will let you use the converter at the event...

Nice stick. I always liked the Hori sticks and owned a few.

I used to collect sticks before I collected statues.

Mainly Madcatz because they had the super limited runs at Comic Con etc.
You never really see them anymore. They are worth a fair penny.

These two in particular:





That last one of course is the inspiration for the new Ryu v Ken stick.



The rarest was this one. Boring as sh1t. But very rare in the states. It was only released in Asia. You see it on streams sometimes from Asia. I had to import it. I sold it for $600 to another collector.



Actually this is rarest.
Given to the top 8 (I think?) at Evo back in 2009 (again...I think...?):



And these.
Given to players at the first Capcom Cup (or 2nd...?):

Parry was the best.
