Seems there will be a VF tournament to celebrate the boom of the franchise in the 90s?

Is this a celebrity tournament or something?

You know, I think the next ambitious step for the Virtua Fighter franchise should be linking the Arcade and console (and PC) networks together, and balance it all with updates simultaneously. With the help of Sony, too maybe.

Nope. I believe it was a minor event in Japan.

On the note of tourneys there's one in Los Angeles this weekend, for anyone who might be interested. Just randomly saw it

There's also one in May @ Toryuken in Toronto, and then NYGX which is in New York in August.

I plan to go to both!
