Last year, we had 19 Japanese in total.
We gonna have another 20+ players? No.
Here is the list of Japanese players who are expected to come to this year's Evolution.

BAS (d44) : He had come to B5 and won A3 tourney. Last year, he tried to win CVS2 with his massive A-CC, but lost to Ken and got 5th. This year, he must win CVS2 in order to make up his travel expenses. He'll try his best in GGXX as well.

Ino : Very famous and strong player among Japanese fighting game fans. He also came to Evl2k2 and got 3rd in CVS2. Then went to n-cubed and NEC where he made exellent remarks. He's still a current active CVS2 player and rarely loses. He'll enter as many games as he can.

Mago : New face. He's been playing CVS2 and classified as top players. Very friendly and cool guy.

Matsuda : He came to B5 and Evl2k2 as well to support Japanese players. Since he's an owner and manager of Game-Newton, his knowledge of handling arcade machine helped a lot. We thank him a lot. He's also a VF master.

Nuki : Another beast. I must say he's a genious in fighting games. He's good at not only 2D-fighters, but 3D-fighters like VF as well.

Daigo : The Beast? He's a GOD in born. How many games will he win in this Evl2k3? At least, top 3 for the prize is almost guaranteed. Expected to win : ST, 3S, CVS2, GGXX

KSK : He came to Evl2k2 and showed his skill in 3S exhibition. Then went to n-cubed and did well in 3S. He was expecting he could win 3S this year at first. Now that 3S experts like K.O, Nuki, Daigo, and Ino are coming, his wish would hardly accomplish.

K.O : New face. 3S MASTER. His Yun moves are arts. Who can stop him?

MIU : An exellent GGXX player. He works in Shinjuku-SportsLand where VF arena. He says he'll enjoy this big tourney.

Kuni : Me. Too old to adapt in recent fighting games and keep playing ST. I practiced 3S and became 'Japanese standard novice'. I'll try my best in ST and wish I could survive to final playoff.

Sawatari : Chief Editor of Arcadia Magazine. Covering this big tourney in their mag. and is gonna support srk.com as well.

Yamagishi : Manager of beat-tribe arcade. He came to evl2k2 as well. He contributes so much to Japanese VF community. Himself is also good player for VF and SC2

Yamamoto : President of AquaRouge company who runs beat-tribe. SBO was run by this company. (arcadia mag. was supporting it)

Chibita : VF GOD. He has made over 30000 wins in arcade VF4 and VF4e with winning ratio of more than 95%. His ticket was presented by AquaRouge company. Thanks a lot to President Yamamoto!

KenBou : aka Tarechichi(loose hanging breast)-Ganryu. He's still among Japan's top tekken players. He participated several T4 tourneys in US and made great achievements.

Ohsu-Akira : TOP VF player and champion. After he won the national VF4 championship, Sega-AM2 gave him a special rank name 'Gouketsu'(stirring hero). He's expected to win VF4. He plays 3S and ST as well.

neo-tower : another top VF player. He also won national level VF4 tourney.

Kofu-megane : megane means a glass, but he doesn't wear a glass. He just mimiced Tokyo's famous top VF player's handle of 'Tokyo-megane'.

They're confirmed coming players list so far.

what the hell? I thought Daigo wasn't coming?

This is great news, there are many players that would love to challenge (re: get tooled by) him.

Looking forward to meeting and playing all the Japanese players.

Im sure everyone is happy Daigo is coming. And it should spur some interest.

Im also happy INO is coming this year. I got to play him in the tournament for CVS2 last year at EVO and he is a beast.

I love his NO FEAR style of play with K groove.


Thanks for the information KUNI!!!

And maybe when everyone gets back, I can get my own personal humbling. :sweat:

Is it just a rumour that Chibita is coming?? (Oh My Goodness)

If you guys think Daigo is famous, geez... there's a reason why Chibita would get his trip for free. He's the BIG DOG!!!!

(although is win percentage is not 95+, it's more like 87%... but he's still "godly" in VF terms)

From what I gather, Tokido can't come because of college entrance exams/preparation for them, Mester and Wakamatsu are working and can't get the days off... haven't seen anyone else at More...

Scamp
07-16-2003, 04:51 PM
Even though there are a few names missing that we'd all like to see (i.e. Tokido) there's still more than enough for us to test our skills against. Thanks for the heads-up Kuni, and be sure to keep us all updated if more people decide to go or if someone decides to cancel.

Is Ohnuki going to play CvS2?

Which of the Japanese players play GGXX besides Ino, BAS, and Daigo?

Let me explain to you bastards what needs to happen. Someone needs to to find Daigo at Evo. Someone needs to politely escort him to an A3 machine...I say politely, because if you're rude or something, hey may flip out and hit you with the BAS VC in real life, because he's that vicious. And you sit him down at this A3 cabinet, and you charge people 2 quarters to get wrecked by Daigo. The machine will be on free play, so just sit there with a bucket or something, and toss the quarters into it.

I personally will contribute $30, over the course of the weekend.

Thank you.

I hoped to see Kapn (Kaqn?) come, but this list is very exciting. If your not hype to see Daigo play your not a true fighting game fan. Also I'm interested to see VF played correctly.

No it's not. The only thing that could fluctuate is the exchange rate. The calculation is correct. VF costs 100 yen most of the time, to my knowledge, so yes, that game made over $25,000 thanks to Chibita's WINS alone.

The thing you forgot is that YOU DON'T PAY WHEN YOU WIN. With a 95% win rate, chances are most of those wins are strings and not in fact single wins which is what his calculation assumes. Once again, it's incorrect.

Well, the game has made over $25,000 on his wins, not directly from him. When he wins a game, someone else comes and pays 100 yen to play. For every win, 100 yen has been placed into the machine. The $25,000 is from himself and countless other Japanese VF players that challenge him.

Why would a "godly" GGXX players just to come play newbies for GGXX?

It isn't worth coming all the way to just play the US while he can just take train and plays with a higher level of players.

they haven't even meet anyone "famous" player yet.

not to mention that combos are easy in GGXX but being able to do it is another story.
so don't tell me that you can do this and do that.

Seriously, Qwazy, where in Japan did you go?

This might be like someone going to Utah and beating all the best players there, then claiming there are no good CvS2 players in the US.

GGXX is WAY more popular in Japan than the US. I'm 95 percent confident a US vs Japan 5 vs 5 match would result in a 25-0 total.

Besides, can you name 5 great US GGXX players? Just try it.

Reread the posts Mr. High and Mighty. No one ever said anything about him SPENDING that much money. The issue is the game MAKING that money. It is correct.

then you must be playing some random scrub
as what u can see what people post.


Tragic went to Japan and play xmen?

I played #reload version b,#reload and XX too.
and i think it wouldn't be much a difference. i mean the game itself has difference but i don't find any problem switching around.

is that to say i'm not wrong? no.

GGXX aint all about combos.there's so many ways for each character to keep you blocking for more than 5 secs and mixin up high-lows n command grabs so fast this game is so random.

And who else are the shit in taking that random factor to maximum effect?

Unfortunately, Hameko can't make it to come for various reason.

But for now, "KenBoo" decided to come with us.
He's one of the very best tekken player and won TX tourney.
He got 2nd in Seattle tourney as well.
Some of tekken players should be familiar with him.
Go, Kenboo, sweep all the Koreans! :D

Also, VF god; Chibita will come by AquaRouge company's invitation treat. (not from David in Costa Mesa :) )

178? Fujiwara? Although they won't come, KO's Dudley (...or ANY of you favorite character) is good enough to beat you all!

And who else are the shit in taking that random factor to maximum effect?

The japs.

It's all about the traps... hehehehe

No, they don't. Because they will be.

What do you mean by that?
You're saying the Japanese players are gonna bring Japanese-style controllers? ( I really dunno what that's called in CORRECT English... cabinets? That's what I wanna know as well...)
This is pretty important for us, so could you please let me know more about it?
Then I'm gonna let them know if they can use stuff they're used to right away.

Thanks a lot :)

Honestly i would say that the japanese will win at least 20+. This being said, i do play ggxx (regularly with kono) but when you study the mindgames that go into the japanese games, what they understand about when to instant block and how to get out of traps, ect. It would be quite a feat if US came out on top.

some games will be on console, correct? if so then the japanese and korean players must remember to bring their sticks.

I personally quite don't worry about this. Since there're so many Japanese style joysticks, such as Hori's fighting stick, available in L.A. and I know some US players will bring their own and we'll borrow.
However, Japanese VF players said they'll bring their own anyway, since Hori's new 'VF4 custom stick' is so comfortable.

comfirmed Japanese VF players are (in their top ranking order):
Chibita , Ohsu-Akira , Nuki , neo-tower , Kofu-megane , Matsuda , Ino , MIU , and Mago

Hoping not all the 8 finalists spot for VF are occupied by Japanese.:cool:

Chikyuu is willing to attend this year, too.
However, he's been suffering somewhat disease, and a fit could happen occasionaly anytime. So, he can't make it.
Our machanic and a hero, Wakamatsu can't make it to come, either, because of work. :(

Right now its not really known who the best is. Mick from TN won the last big sc2 tournament. Its hard to say. EVO will decide who the best is since all the best players will be there.

Aris is good, but he's not the best in SoCal right now. There's really no clear cut number 1 on the West Coast, kinda like Marvel...

Last I checked, FetZ was the man to beat in SC2, almost winning SBO even.
