Daigo Umehara launches official site with video section

Posted on March 16, 2010 at 1:14 p.m.

Street Fighter legend, Daigo Umehara, has launched his own site, which is still a work in progress, but it contains a video section showcasing some of his favorite fights across a variety of games.

While the player isn't as friendly as YouTube, it's still not too bad and you get to see one of the best fighting game players ever showing his skills across a variety of Capcom fighters.

The rest of the site is mostly in Japanese, so you probably won't find too much that interests you there unless you can read another language.

Thats a pretty damn cool site.
Pretty easy to navigate through it too, (even though I can't read Japanese.)

That site has been around for a while. I always figured it was a fan site. Some of the videos are from youtube.

Yeah, the site itself has existed for a while. I keep waiting to see if they'll update the Third Strike section.

www.daigothebeast.com

it still directs you to the japanese website for the videos but i'm guessing they're gonna add some english content to it later on

LOL @ the Daigo haters. I myself am not a huge Daigo fan but I have a ton of respect for what he's done. Best Street Fighter player of all time in my opinion. Haters will hate. It's their job lol...
