    Jide recently brought this blog entry to my attention. I found it to be well written and thoroughly entertaining, so I thought I'd spread it around!

    Nice.

    Chibita's aracade(Ikebukuro) is really really hard to find. I remember Arice is at level 3 with level 1 and 2 all the porn and prostitute stuff.

    He owns the arcade iirc.

    Not for long, I think. Arice is closing, last I heard.

    So sad. His arcade was one of the cheaper ones. 100 yen for 2 credits.

    Hello! That was written by me, actually.

    I would say the reason Japanese players are put on a pedestal are because the good ones are just so much better than us. That's not a biological thing, it's that they have communities in the thousands that get together to play fighting games, so they get lots of opportunities to play against a lot of different opponents.

    And it's definitely not just a game.

    Couldn't agree more. The first time I was there and I saw 20 VF machines catergorized into Kyu, Dans and above Dans, my eyes nearly pop out. With all the machines fully occupied in the evenings, there was so much to learn, watch and remember.

    The guy got Chibita's test card, right? And they played for quite some time, right? Then if he's here, he'd better post some pictures /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

    What an excellent article, really well written. Wish I could have played Chibita.

    I didn't really get many pics. Those that I did I gave to PSM3 here in the UK.

    Rayne - PSM3 are WELL up for videoing our match and putting it on their DVD, billed as PSM3(me) vs VFDC(you). Which is dubious labelling at best, but I'm down for anything that promotes VF. I'll do the Hori cheat so we can dress up our Lions to look like sex.

    so much Lion love here. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

    it's one of the best stories in VFDC for a while.
    i can almost imagine every situation you're in, because it's so well written and delightful to read.

    ah... stop whinning, you're invited to the 25th Harrow event.
    then we can all show our Lion skills in (real) dress ups, as mentioned above. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

    Sounds good although I have to say, playing Chibita slightly eclipses the London face off. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif
