Wait, am I confused between two arcades that Sega own? Joypolis and the Ikebukuro GiGO arcade are seperate right?

I mean, sure there is still significance to the Ikebukuro GiGO arcade given it's iconic for Sega over that district of Tokyo, would still be nice to see it for myself.

I can't be bothered to rewrite my previous post over it because SegaBits is so slow today.

Cybernauts: The New Breed (Canceled SEGA Genesis / Mega Drive Fighting Game) got Comic Book Kickstarter





Quote
Depending on the tier that you choose, you can enjoy the comic book version of Cybernauts that you prefer, based on an Unreleased Sega Genesis Game : Cybernauts: The New Breed, developed by Accolade.
But that’s not all. The backers will have the opportunity to download the Sega Genesis prototype of the game that was thought to be lost and that was supposed to come out in 1994.

Yes, they are separated.

About the forum, I think it's because of me. I post too many posts.
JK... The site (forum included) went like this because the host needs new harddrives.
It'll be sorted out.

DuckStation Lets Xbox Series X/S play PlayStation games at 4K



Quote
Another supported feature is the ability to fix texture warping, which was a typical issue with PlayStation games.
This takes up a lot of processing power, but as the video shows the Xbox Series S handles it well.
Of course, given that it’s an emulator, DuckStation is not simply available on the Xbox digital store.
The only way to access it is to set the Xbox Series X/S to Developer Mode (which requires players to pay a fee to Microsoft to enable), and install the software manually.

Easy characters can hurt fighting games, four reasons why they shouldn't be top tier



Quote
Roster members like Bayonetta in Super Smash Bros. 4, Yun in Street Fighter 4: Arcade Edition, and Cammy in Street Fighter 5 have been a very heavy presence in tournaments, and they're often regarded as some of the easiest characters to use in their respective games.
The main issue doesn't tend to be that a character might be much easier to play than their other cast members, but instead if that character is easy to use AND high tier.
This combination usually means this character will dominate in the competitive landscape, and often be at our near the top of the results and usage on numerous occasions.

Couldn't they just... not allow those characters to be playable in tournaments if that's the case? Like if a champion has won all the trophies for the last five years can a competition ask them to stand down and give the others a chance?

Yes, but there always be many angry fans every time a character is banned.
Sometimes it bring negative publication for the tournament.

Then... I dunno, maybe divide the tournaments into groups? Kind Like weight classes in boxing, wrestling and other contact sports.

Boxing class decided by Weight Limit, right?
115 pounds and under went to Junior Bantamweight class, 135 pounds and under went to Lightweight class, etc.
Kinda hard to measure for video games.
It probably could be done, but it'll take a lot of efforts and agreements.

Nintendo Shuts Down Another Smash Bros. Tournament



Quote
What makes this instance even more absurd is that Riptide’s Project+ tournament would have been completely offline.
(Brawl’s official online multiplayer, just to note, has been out of commission since 2014.)
The mod also requires disc copies of Brawl to work, so piracy is not an issue either.
Project+ is merely a game mod, so if you’re wondering what Nintendo’s objection is, you’re not alone.
