That's great, but what does it mean for level up series wednesday night fights?!
Nostalgia to me is playing pad.
I was so broke as a student to continue paying money in the Arcades.
So using pad was always the way to go.
Using other companies' pads never worked 4 me so I just use the standard pad now eventhough I have the money to spend now.
Man, UltraDavid knows nothing about Fighting Game, he's not a good player nor commentator, he never knows exactly what's happening on the screen, never knows why something happened or if the Ultra/Combo/Super is going to kill the character, he doesn't know much about scaling or deterioration. Chen in the other hand, he's awesome.
when a commentator isn't yipes or a yipes wannabe people on eventhubs start moaning. Ironically they also complain about the lack of knowledge being displayed by the two then go on to compliment the likes to steve, and jaha for all their knowledgeable commentaries.
Yeah something to watch for slow mondays-tuesdays, Thank you based UtraChen.
