On the Japanese Super Street Fighter 4 Nakky blog, Shiozawa-san hyped up a new Super Street Fighter 4 DVD that's going to feature matches from some of the top players in Japan.Hello everyone!
Thanks for the massive amount of comments on last week's blog!
You know how in Ibuki's part on the new character trailer her pet racoon Don made some appearances? I had to do the checking of Don's images, and it was really strict - we did more retakes for Don than Ibuki.

No Mago?

Not to defend Umehara or anything, but you're no better.
Posted by #5 on February 25, 2010 at 9:06 p.m. #6
Youd do know Daigo has gone on record saying he will not fight certain console SFrs, right? What kind of god says, i dont wanna fight you!
Posted by PeteTheBohemian on February 25, 2010 at 9:08 p.m. #7
@#3 a.k.a. "really"
I respect that you're not riding Daigo's dick like every one else, but to call him a "scrub" might be worse. It is asinine to ignore his accomplishments. If you don't think he'd be good at TvC or MvC2, then you've never seen him play Alpha 3 or Dark Stalkers a.k.a. Vampire Hunter.
Posted by @5 on February 25, 2010 at 9:09 p.m. #8
yeah, I'm mixed on that( slightly leaning towards your opinion ) but he is still an amazing player and people calling him scrubs would be destroyed if they played him
Posted by Eile on February 25, 2010 at 9:11 p.m. #9
yes he is "The God of Capcom fighting games" You can play the Capcom fighters and be great on all of them, but not on the top at any of them, it's still no good.
Posted by Meta on February 25, 2010 at 9:12 p.m. #10
Lmao at daigo scrubin it out lmao I'm no d sucker of his or any player but no one in this forum could beat him while he was drunk with the flu.. He's prolly the god of iv n st imo
Posted by Meta on February 25, 2010 at 9:14 p.m. #11
That's like saying mj(Jordan or Jackson) was a bench warmer or one hit wonder lmao u buggin dude
Posted by Meh on February 25, 2010 at 9:15 p.m. #12
Even though i hate ryu sooo fkng much for how easy and how retardedley safe he is Daigo is always either the first or one of the first to know how to win every match up. Umehara uses ryu but in the end he does deserve credit for discovering what ways to exploit all of ryus options. Although i do consider Tokido and Momochi better players bcz they can't get away with more than two mistakes b4 theyre KOd and the fluidness of theyre chars any person who uses execution to win is better than mago and umehara in my book*who mostly depend on punishing instead of building offense* cuz of theyre stupid Shoryu FADC ultra.
Posted by PeteTheBohemian on February 25, 2010 at 9:19 p.m. #13
Also, Daigo not only destroyed in pretty much every Capcom fighting game he's played, he also had an iron grip on the Guilty Gear scene, where most players said that, when fighting him, "it's like he's psychic. He knows everything you're going to do."
Again, I'm not dick riding. I really agree with Arturo Sanchez's perspective on not putting the Japanese on a pedestal. Yet, at the same time, you have to respect them and, in turn, respect Daigo.
Posted by haha on February 25, 2010 at 9:28 p.m. #14
it's just funny
because yeah we are all the tournament scene
but are we known?
and if we are
known like him?
No
I don't think so
he is the Ken, the founder of Super Smash Bros. Metagame
he is that of Street Fighter. He was the first that was the best, and even if people beat him, he will always be known for being the first of the best. THE FIRST
Posted by Kinderovu on February 25, 2010 at 9:31 p.m. #15
Wait. What game are these matches on? Both SF4 and SF3? Or are they actually giving SSF4 for these players for them to prepare and fight each other?
Posted by Mister Masters on February 25, 2010 at 9:31 p.m. #16
Daigo is FREE versus my OTG DPM+FP!
Set your alarm clocks to WAKE UP SHORYUKEN!

Sagat matches are lame.
Posted by @14 on February 25, 2010 at 9:35 p.m. #18
what the heck are you even talking about?
who's "he"? I know who ken hoang is, but I don't see anyone mentioning him, or any context for what you just said.
Posted by rabbit on February 25, 2010 at 9:37 p.m. #19
#15 it's SSFIV (see below)
"He took the title at SBO 09 in SFIII using Makoto. So of course, the character he'll be using on the e-Capcom DVD is Makoto! He is the second best Akuma player right behind Tokido."
Posted by rabbit on February 25, 2010 at 9:39 p.m. #20
oh granted it could be 3rd strike from the text but from the article title "Nakky blog details new SSF4 match video DVD", it's SSFIV.
Posted by SSJ3X on February 25, 2010 at 9:44 p.m. #21
Wait... so Momochi is using Makoto in the SSF4 DVD? Pretty cool to be honest. It should be an interesting DVD overall.
Posted by sere on February 25, 2010 at 9:47 p.m. #22
So does this mean SSFIV will hit arcades then?
Posted by were on February 25, 2010 at 9:50 p.m. #23
@#21
It's a bit confusing, but no they are packing videos of his Third Strike matches.
Posted by hrm on February 25, 2010 at 9:52 p.m. #24
I do hope that all of the players featured in the DVD are earning a small percentage from every copy sold..
Especially with no arcade version of Super.
It's just business after all. :]
Posted by skysonic on February 25, 2010 at 10:12 p.m. #25
the japanese are leagues a head of the americans in fighting games
Posted by No Mago on February 25, 2010 at 10:22 p.m. #26
No Mago?!?! If Mago is right now the #1 japanese player he should be there. Mago mains sagat!! maybe the don't want to show us that sagat still overpowered.
Posted by fightclub on February 25, 2010 at 10:23 p.m. #27
God of Capcom yeah Kuroda is a better player than diago let diago win sbo with Q.Also Kuroda is a beast in Guilty Gear which is also a complicated fighting game. SF4 is just to simple for kuroda.
Posted by ddd on February 25, 2010 at 10:25 p.m. #28
@#27
Guilty Gear is not a complicated game.
Posted by boring on February 25, 2010 at 10:29 p.m. #29
this is boring.
Posted by @13 on February 25, 2010 at 10:30 p.m. #30
Arturo needs to have a first to 10 with Daigo instead of winning 1 money match against him and thinking he's king sh*t.
Posted by Abelogy on February 25, 2010 at 10:53 p.m. #31
YEAH SHIRO'S IN
Abel's of the world unite

NOPE! there's no proof of that

No Sagat players I'm actually suprised

man i'm going to skin don the tanooki and spit roast him
muwahaha

Interesting list of players. Too bad they couldn't round up a few more of the top SFIV players for the DVD (Mago, Shinya [chun], and the #1 Vega player [forgot name]). As for Daigo... he's a great player, but in every game that he's played there has always been someone better or equal (CvS2, 3S, A3, and SFIV). What sets him apart is his popularity in America and his very solid play style. Nevertheless, there are many players at Daigo's level and above that deserve credit as well.

Tear them up Itabashi, let's GO!
Posted by anon on February 26, 2010 at 12:52 a.m. #37
Apart from Mago (best sagat) the entire list is comprised of the best of the best.
Kindevu - best rufus in the world
Shiro - best abel in the world
Daigo - Best ryu in the world
Iyo - Best Dhal in the world
Tokido&Momochi - Best/tied for best Akuma in the world
Nuki - Best chunli in the world now that Nemo is gone
Itabashi - Best Zangief in the world
Only one were really missing is Maeda taison (best boxer), Uyro (best cviper), Kyabetsu (godly c.viper that took out SBO).
if anything Momochi playing Makato in ssf4 should be very interesting. He played a pretty godly Makoto last year, OCVing most of the SBO team (including 3s god Kuroda's team) to eventually win it.

Riding diago's dick is bad but to call him a scrub is worse, Gtfo

What is up with the Daigo hate? He has proven now for over a decade that he is one of the best and most consistent players in the world. Some of the things he pulls off are'godlike' for sure.
Can't wait to see this DVD
Posted by @39 on February 26, 2010 at 2:44 a.m. #40
...Hadouken, Hadouken, Hadouken, Hadouken, Hadouken, Hadouken, Hadouken, Hadouken. Yeah, Daigo is real innovative...
Posted by #39, on February 26, 2010 at 2:44 a.m. #41
You just anwered your own question. :)
Q/ What is up with the Daigo hate?
A/ He has proven now for over a decade that he is one of the best and most consistent players in the world.
Posted by zUkUu on February 26, 2010 at 2:44 a.m. #42
mhh for a super street fighter tournament only 1 char from it is used. kinda bad commercial. -at least 2 more should be used.

Posted by WAIT on February 26, 2010 at 3:33 a.m. #45
hey wait stop the trolling and see.....top players will actualy play SSFIV...
Posted by O h wait on February 26, 2010 at 3:39 a.m. #46
There are 2 Last Chance spots. To decide these spots, we'll have a tournament! However, the tournament won't be held on VEWLIX cabinets, but on the Xbox 360 with Mad Catz arcade sticks. Of course, you will only be allowed to use arcade characters.
It's SFIV never mind
Posted by Anonymous on February 26, 2010 at 3:43 a.m. #47
Very cool but kind of disappointed in no Mago.
Posted by I'm confused on February 26, 2010 at 3:46 a.m. #48
As part of Kindevu's team at the Kyushu Qualifiers, he was also thrilled to earn his spot! He has Grandmaster status for Akuma and Ryu, and Master status for Viper and Ken. He took the title at SBO 09 in SFIII using Makoto. So of course, the character he'll be using on the e-Capcom DVD is Makoto! He is the second best Akuma player right behind Tokido.
So they'll play SFIV or SSFIV?

In my opinion Ojisan Boy is a better player with Abel than SHIRO. I have seen a lot of match of them and Ojisan Boy is more interesting to watch. He had created a lot combo and mix up

he's no spammer..
he's known for his ultimate comebacks in all street fighters.. he can win with almost no life bar..
thats what makes him better than most players.. he can adapt do any character and anyones player style..
