Evil Geniuses' Justin Wong shared a ton of interesting details about Japan and the playerbase there for Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition v2012 on Twitter recently. He comments about how he fared against some well known Japanese players, how the net code feels in the land of the rising sun and quite a bit more.

Justin was in Japan for the Topanga Charity Cup, where his team finished tied for 5th, but outside of that tournament, he got in some time with SSF4 AE v2012. Hit the jump to check out the rest of the tweets we've rounded up.

Saw so much Yang stuff in AE2012 that still makes him a playable character.

So playing Japanese online AE is so fun. There is still lag but not much like at all.
