The quarterfinals to reach the top 8 in Japan's 25th anniversary Street Fighter tournament has recently completed over on Nico Live. Many of Japan's best players came to fight in SSF4 AE 2012, SFxT and SF3 Third Strike. The tournament will be concluded on October 20th in a special streaming area that was discussed in this post.
Read after the jump to see the lists for the top 8 finishers in each game. Results have been provided by Zhi of Cross Counter Asia.
Pay per view..... awesome stuff.... >_>
Looks like Daigo had to switch back to Yun during some matches.
AE? SFxT??? People, there are cheaper sleeping pills at pharmacies...
@3 Somebody get this man a coloring book to keep him occupied instead of posting worthless comments
@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.
@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.
I also hate the fact that they charge ppl to watch "paperview" cmon seriously... that's is low.
@14 doesn't matter those who really want to see will do anyway, a few "whiners" wont do anything to them :P
