Get Hype! On the 24th and 25th of March, Versus Scotland will be bringing Scotland its very own national fighters tournament – Hypespotting 2012.

We will host five tournaments over the two day event. With a cash pot and exclusive prizes donated from Capcom and Rising Star to name a few, plus the title of ‘Scottish Champion’ on the line, it’s all to play for. The official line up is SSF4:AE, Ultimate Marvel Versus Capcom 3 and King of Fighters XIII, with another two games to be decided by a community vote!

Seidon is planning to have some VF5 set ups for casual games during the Hypespotting event; however, he is also campaigning for VF to be featured as one of the main tournaments. If you have a love for VF, want to show your community spirit, or just want to visit Glasgow, Scotland please contact Seidon to show your interest and for more details.

The way the vote works is each week the game with the least votes gets chopped and the vote goes live again."

[​IMG]Zerochan recently tweeted: I have an interview with Daichi Katagiri next week! Do you have any Qs about VF past or present? Let me know!

If you're unaware, D.K. is the director of Virtua Fighter arcade series. Please note that he has nothing to do with the console ports. So do you have any questions for D.K? Stack 'em up in this thread!

This was also mentioned in D.K.'s Blog #99. From what I can gathered - Sega will be giving a special "title" to the team that wins.

As usual, we will update the post as we get more information.
