Kakuge Yaro and how one creator (I wanna say Silent Storm) tried to pass off one of the characters as his own original creation before getting caught
-The great Japanese Mugen collapse: I don't believe a proper name was ever established for this, but the shutdown of Geocities, Yahoo Japan and InfoSeek (and probably some other hosts I've forgotten) resulted in many, many, many, MANY Japanese Mugen creators losing their hosting.  I seriously cannot emphasize enough how scary this was at the time, because the Japanese community hadn't really adopted file sharing sites for their content the way we did in the West.  Some of them did eventually start using things like OneDrive and other uploading services (and still do to this day) but many others would be lost if not for the Wayback Machine and people having already downloaded their content.  We narrowly avoided a digital Library of Alexandria burning.
Related to this, but the losses of Megaupload and Mugen China/MugenBR (along with Infoseek, as mentioned) resulted in a TON of stuff being gone. So when this situation happened with Geocities and Yahoo Japan the community was much better prepared for it via archiving of every kind possible. Helps unlike the former examples those two sites let it known they were shutting down so people could get everything they could.

The "READY", "FIGHT" and "KO" graphics come out Xbox huge in the resolution but other than that they're working fine. Good stuff.

Probably should reposition the text telling you what stage number you're on too. Didn't notice that because I mostly tested in training.

looks like in the Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection, characters in X-Men COTA will also have their movesets from their latest version till Marvel vs. Capcom 2 like Storm is able to perform her Hail Storm which was newly added move from her X-Men vs. Street Fighter onwards:

I can't imagine gouki will have his sgs and two other of his hyper moves from x-men vs. street fighter to marvel vs. capcom 2 and that made him become not a ryu+ken anymore :gouki:
She's always had Hail Storm in COTA. This is just them telling people about how the game originated a lot of well known stuff.

Notably, this is known to be eventually getting ported to consoles, but they said that when the game was initially announced in 2019 so who knows if that's still happening.
New Asuka game also had that promise too, iirc it was supposed to be heading to Switch.

My cope regarding Daraku Tenshi is that given Zerodiv is seemingly still involved it still has a shot of showing up on home platforms given they've done exactly that with other releases but who knows. ExArcadia managed to get a licenced Touhou game of all things arcade exclusive after all.

Omegapsycho has conversions of the MK1 cast that aren't super complicated, so that's something to look into.

Regarding Moriya that was actually him. But only because some of the games hosted were on Steam by that point. Far as I know anything not on there is fair game (or at least he's willing to look away).

Honestly at the end of the day you do you. I do personally take issue with your deleting of the progress of your full games. Not because "wah I'm not gonna play them" or "there goes my chance to play as x" but because it was also the work of not just you but other people from spriters to coders that's just down the toilet. As someone who's being doing collaborative stuff in a streaming circle things like that just rub me the wrong way.

EDIT: also as mentioned ZUN won't care as long as it's all free, even if it's using the Tasofro assets

I've been silently watching the progress you've been posting here and Twitter. It's been really cool seeing how far everything has gone and I'm looking forward to the finished results.

Oh hi Roman55.

Just curious are you still banned on SMF? That awful bigot Maria T. got unbanned there and Wolfy has gone full woke. Blocked me on Facebook but didn't block my official Facebook page. So I blocked him there. He even sent me a 'F*ck you' message on PSN.

Anyways, there's still more work to do. Hoping to finish within 3 or 4 years.

In the meantime there's a Sailor Moon Openbor demo available at Chronocrash.
Haven't checked but that's neither here nor there.

Anyways yea, I'd figure you'd take that long but the work you put in shows in the videos of the characters currently being worked on.

If I remember, something similar happened with BlazBlue? Either ways, this is absolutely pathetic. MUGEN's ToS literally states that you can not use MUGEN commercially, this is ridiculous.

If they put Kain in the trailer, I imagine they would have put Grant, so at this point I'll assume he's not making it. It's looking like they put mostly the returning characters, and I don't supposed they'd have left more returning characters out of that trailer
so it looks to me like Grant, Freeman and the Kim kids are getting the cut (and maybe Hokutomaru if that older voice with Mai and Jenet isn't him). I imagine they didn't want to put two Kims, and they didn't want to put one and not the other, so maybe they'll just come up with a new Taekwondo character to replace all of them.
My safe take is that the older sounding voice is actually Andy given he was in one of the teasers with a new look. Probably safer to bring back as many older characters due to already having assets they can base things off.

Happy they're bringing back the coolest guy from 11 imo.

Though in hindsight it should be a no brainer in terms of the story given his gimmick.

Alright, let's bring up some life into this thread with a banger of a headline.

Mandy Rose has been released by WWE due to constant arguing over her posting lewd pictures of herself. From the sounds of it, it was also the reason she was moved away from Raw since she does have a website we're she does post pictures of herself. Anyway you hate to hear about stuff like this.
It gets better, apparently the pictures breached the deal WWE had with Mattel so they sacked her for that reason.

I would love more "what the fuck" level guest characters, like with Noctis and especially Negan.

The world of fighting games needs more totally absurd "what the fuck" level guest characters lol and we need to embrace that, no matter how stupid it is.
This. Plus Tekken has always embraced the weirder kind of guests ever since Gon back in T3.

There's a reason why these crossovers don't work anymore. Just look at KOF All Star for an example. After bringing in Tekken characters, they dominated the scene for multiple seasons, Kazuya being the culprit. The systems are too different. SNK games (and Street Fighter) rely on meters, jumps, long stringy combos to win. Also, games like KOF rely on three teammates while Street Fighter require lots of cancels (more than KOF even).
Dunno about that. A creative company and dev team can make a lot of crossover ideas work while also keeping what big players of those franchises like about their favorite side. CvS being probably the best example. I get your logic, but at the end of the day all casual players want is their favorite characters getting together and interacting with fun gameplay.
