Pay per view..... awesome stuff.... >_>

Looks like Daigo had to switch back to Yun during some matches.

Who did Daigo use Yun against?
Was it the Oni?
Don't see him needing to switch against Sagat, Ken or Cody.

I was also under the impression the 25th anni was char locked but I guess not.

@2, the tournament is not character lock and it is 2/3 game format.
Daigo used Yun to counterpick against sim.

@#5 Did he? According to the brackets Daigo didn't play a Sim.
Bonchan(Sagat), shinochan(Oni), HYo・Valjyan(Cody)& KichijoujiKen were his matches.
As far as I know none of them play Sim. unless the bracket was wrong and Noriyasu (Sim) really beat KichijoujiKen.

especially on non-localized websites and hard as balls to navigate

not to even mention the FGC is not there yet in attendance numbers.. these PPV events are only killing the hype

@7 Not as exciting as a Necro though. That's some hype stuff.

Also, I think Japan started doing PPV streams because they can't have a pot for tourneys so they had to make money somehow. Although for a tourney provided by Capcom, I think it should be free to watch.

I thought Capcom was paying for everything regarding the 25th Street Fighter Anniversary Tournaments, so I really don't understand why this one is PPV.

Is it a case of Capcom Japan being stingy? Would not surprise me, especially considering the fact that the Japan qualifiers weren't even listed on the official SF25th site the last time I checked.
