Curious. What's the button layout on the system? 3 or 4 buttons? I noticed the Tutorial Demo mode displaying H + P. Instead of the T icon for the same macro.

I read on 2ch that's it's using 3-button controls and IIRC in Virtua Fighter's layout rather than DOA's default. This was using google translation, though the message seemed pretty clear, but you never know.

This is correct. H, P, K. And Start to taunt.

I bet the tournament history went like this:
T1 - Kazuya
T2 - Kazuya
T3 - Jin
T4 - Jin
T5 - Jin
T6 - None
It actually went:
T1 - Kazuya
T2 - Heihachi
T3 - Jin (Paul got robbed because he left before Ogre transformed.)
T4 - Heihachi (Jin beat his and Kazuya's ass after the tournament.)
T5 - Jin
T6 - Who knows? It's probably going to end up being Lars...

Boring theme. I'll probably give her Solitary Desperation or Russian Roulette.
Giving Marie Rose Russian Roulette is like giving Leon I Feel For You. lol

And her theme kind of already sounds Solitary Desperation-y to me. But, whatever...

I would have preferred it if Paul did won T3. His punches has more sting than Jin anyways but I know for sure the prize money ends up getting spent on his bike.

She has three as far as I know.
1. Alright! Score one for Marie! (lit. It's Marie's win! I'm anticipating how they might translate it.)
2. Hey, don't you underestimate me because I'm small.
3. That was a piece of cake.

Holy crud I was mostly right about the 2nd one! Woooo~

Anyway her theme is fine. It sounds royal, and her theme is reminiscent to some anime themes involving people of royal stature. Parts of it remind me of Vk, rozen maiden. etc. Kinda sounds like it could be turned into Rachel Alucards theme "Queen of Rose".


I could imagine her with this theme actually!

The Virtua Fighter default layout is the DOA default layout. At least it always has been for the arcades.

@EMPEROR_COW tells me the big scene is starting to be Hey! in Akihabara.

Yeah, according to light_K he says "HEY" Akihabara is the place people seem to be gathering at the most.

But he also mentioned that the Japanese seem to be drifting away from 3D fighters like VF n tekken n mainy focusing on the 2D fighters.

I must be the only one who likes her theme especially with the classical music twist. lol :oops:
No, you're definitely not alone. I was worried she would have a lame theme like Mila or Rig (they still haven't grown on me :x) but I must say I was impressed the moment it started with the Piano transitions. It's really well done and fits her playful fighting style.

To be fair, there are sooooooooooooo many 2D fighters right now. GG, SF4, BB, Aquapazza, Under-Night, Chaos Code, Persona. And then Skullgirls, MK9, Injustice, Marvel (in America). 2D may have that fresh coat of paint for right now.

VF5 is kind of getting dated at this point. TTT2 may not have reinvented the wheel enough for people. Not to mention how complex those two are. But, there aren't even a lot of "3D fighters" to drift away from. It might be people are getting sick of 3D fighters as a genre, but I wouldn't make it sound like that just yet.

Maybe DOA will catch fire. It's certainly easy to get into, at least.

Is Light_k wuroncha?

And, it's the same in the states, but that's primarily due to the oversaturation of 2D fighters coming out.

Wuroncha is the brad player

Light k's sarah, wuronchas brad, hiropon's tina and test's christie are the main threats we need to be on the lookout for on the 12th.. along with the flood of kasumis (heard theres like 10 confirmed lol)

They have a darkhorse rig as well thats coming as well as the helena that had the kumite about half a year back.. got alot of researching to do.

The japanese are completely oblivious to pai n what shes capable of n they even admit it.. im gonna research her more along with momiji.
