Capcom was against corporations running fighting game tourneys for profit, but now feels if the right people are in place it can work

Capcom was against corporations running fighting game tourneys for profit, but now feels if the right people are in place it can work Today, an article was posted on The Penny Arcade Report regarding eSports and Capcom attempting to bring its games to a world stage.

Numerous high profile community members are quoted in the article discussing what Capcom has done in the past and what they can do in the future to raise their viewership and community.

Up first we have an excerpt from the article where Combofiend discusses Capcom's previous views on being against partnerships with corporations that run tournaments for profit and their current feelings.

“While Capcom has traditionally been against partnerships with corporations who are running tournaments for profit,” said Rosas about Capcom's former policy of refusing to work with tournaments like MLG. “We now believe that if headed by the right people, it can lead to better looking events, at grander venues, with larger payouts and sponsorships. These are all good things for the scene, and can lead to more opportunities for players and organizers.”

Update: Xbox One will not support Xbox 360 wireless controllers or accessories, currently do not have specifics on wired devices

Update: Xbox One will not support Xbox 360 wireless controllers or accessories, currently do not have specifics on wired devices Updated: Another Twitter User, Frank Bivens, asked Xbox Support Twitter specifically about wired devices including the arcade fightsticks. In theory USB 3.0 on the Xbox One is compatible with USB 2.0 on the current wired devices for the Xbox 360.

Frank Bivens: Hi, I was wondering if USB wired 360 devices such as arcade fightsticks will work on X1? USB 3.0 is compatible with USB 2.0.

Xbox Support: We don't have specific info on that at this time, but stay tuned in the months ahead ^JN

Joystiq posted an article with information pertaining to the Xbox One and compatibility with its predecessor. Microsoft has confirmed that Xbox 360 controllers and the Kinect will not be supported on the new console.

A Microsoft spokesman relayed this statement unto Joystiq when prompted on the matter.

Xbox One was designed from the ground up with entirely new technology to deliver a new generation of experiences for both games and entertainment. For example, the Wireless Controller will connect to the console using high speed data transfer to enable higher fidelity headset audio and future controller add-on experiences that are not possible with Xbox 360 wireless technology.

Additionally, the all-new Kinect sensor's ability to locate the wireless controller is dependent on new technology. In order for Xbox One to deliver robust, meaningful gaming scenarios for all users across all experiences, only Xbox One controllers and accessories will work with the new console.

A Twitter user went a step further and asked about Xbox 360 accessory compatibility for the Xbox One. Unfortunately, the Twitter account confirmed that accessories will also not be usable on the next console.

Aksys Games to announce two new titles at E3

Aksys Games to announce two new titles at E3 Aksys Games, known largely for their localization efforts, are set to announce two new titles at this year's E3. So why should the fighting community care? Well, Aksys also have a history of localizing the games developed by Arc System Works, namely Guilty Gear and BlazBlue.

A new Guilty Gear was announced just a few days ago, but there was no word on a release outside of Japan, making it a prime suspect as one of these E3 reveals.

Another title that has yet to be announced outside of Japan is the upcoming BlazBlue: Chronophantasma. While it might be wise to not expect both of these titles to be announced at the same time for an overseas release, it would seem highly likely that at least one of them will be coming our way, perhaps even sooner than expected.

So if you had your choice, which of these two titles would you want to see confirmed for a stateside release? Or maybe you have something completely different in mind? Let us know in the comments.
