Virtua Fighter 20th Anniversary Interviews

You thought the remix was a step down from the original SS port?

^I have VF2, but not FV. Also my Xbox is alllllll the way back in Australia on the other side of the planet

That sucks, I wanted to play some games with you. Virtua Fighter 2 is addictive and more fun when you play against other people.

Actually it's a huge step up from the original port with glitches removed like the flickering from the models.

I hope this guy keeps going with the translations. I would like to read Daichi Katagiri's view on Virtua Fighter.

I thought remix was way better than the original port. That's why I was so confused by regal.

[Kori-Maru]

Well, AM2 is still slowly updating their VF20th Celebration. They posted a image of Pai Chan throughout the past 2 decades. Think they'll make an announcement during TGS?

[jonboy101]

I'm not wholly optimistic. The NU isn't exactly state of the art tech, even by recent arcade standards. I'm not sure they'd debut a new cabinet at TGS.

That being said, I really really hope they announce.

Don't worry...most people in the forum are confused by Regal...

If I eventually get a PS3 or Xbox we'll play some games online. Whereabouts are you located? I'm in Ontario at the moment.

I live in the Georgia area. Virtua Fighter 2 and Fighting Vipers are the only two games I'm currently playing on my 360 now. Waiting until a couple of newer titles to come next year or so.

It is one way . I just love the flat shaded polygon look of VF in the Arcades and on the Saturn

Yessss!  Kori and I need more people to join us in our online shinanigans!  I try and record our fights/stream them on Twitch.  Usually it's just him and I kicking each other's butts.

I really don't know why people assumed that VF6 wasn't coming. The series is still a cash cow for Sega. And its the perfect year to release it...

This year? I don't think they'll announce anything this year, unless there's a big surprise soon. I do think it'll still come eventually, as you said, it's still a big hit for Japanese Arcades and I think Final Showdown actually performed quite well. Not to mention they supported Sega Cup again this year, I don't see why they would do that for a game that isn't coming out.

On a related note, I placed fourth last weekend at a tournament in Buffalo, NY :D

Good going MM.

Good going MM.

Thanks! I'd love to one day go to Japan and just plonk $50 down to play VF all day at an arcade and just see what it's like. I'm sure I'd lose 90% of the matches but it would be an experience to soak up that arcade culture and the competition.
