The ONLY fighting game at EC

is now MvC2.

SC2 is gone and they replaced it with MvC2. Thats right, MvC2...

that means there are TWO MvC2 cabinets at EC now and no other fighting game.

EC are idiots. Capcom vs SNK 2? Then Soul Calibur II? No more Virtua Fighter 4 either, by the sounds of it? Fighting games MADE arcades damnit >=O This is an outrage >.>

If there were any justice, you'd still be able to play games like Garou, CvS2, SFA3, SF3:TS, etc...

I guess its just the lifestyles.
People in North America are more towards home consoles and computer games.
Asia people are more of an arcade player.
Just cultural i guess

North Americans are just lazy. "Stand while I play video games? Go out of my house? Why bother?" Not to mention, arcades don't do much to bring people in - Games are still fairly expensive to play, and like in EC's case, they're getting rid of ones that people do play... I know like 3 regulars who only went to EC for CvS2, as a small example.

Arcades are about the competition. A joystick is an entirely different realm than a d-pad or analog thumbstick. Going and battling with other "humans" is what it's all about. Sure you can go with online fighting games, but that's far less personal than an arcade.

I'm hoping that Tekken 5, with the ability to bring your own PS2 controller to use on the game as well as the card system, restores a little originality and popularity of arcades. At least a tiny bit. That might hoping for a lot though.
