    Keep in mind that Canada - at least Toronto - has had every incarnation of VF in the arcades: 1, 2, 2.1, 3ob, 3tb, 4, 4Evo, and now FT. We've got the history baby /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

    ...and no, we didn't have kids or remix :p

    Actually, we did have remix on the ST-V board. later on Tai took that out and put in Die Hard. All we missed out on was a dedicated Kids unit but we did have the only (that I have heard of) Virtua Fighter Kids tournament!

    I now return you to your regularly scheduled thread.

    OK guys--Canada, and I mean CANADA, is going to get FT. How can those guys living in the middle of the forest get FT and we don't??? Let's get cracking on this, let's put the pressure on.

    i thought you would refer to it as the middle of an igloo lol. why singapore cannot get the stuff they want? wow. thats a political question. but i guess when they are opening up for gums, there is hope. /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

    Regarding the gums, that just sounds so *cough* uninspiring. Much of everything in this island is more or less the result political push and pull factors and that is, IMNSHO, probably one reason why the arcade in Singapore won't have FT, until some big shot makes some noise here and there. heheh...

    A hypothetical scenario. Oh well. If the local arcade (bugis) won't release the game here, I'm going to just have to protest with my wallet. XD Either way, the arcade (bugis) is going to lose some biz, until they get the game. ggeeee.

    MOAT? Most Obscene Act of TKA (the bugis arcade). argh! That most obscene act is not bringing in FT. geee...

    From now on, we shall protest at the bugis arcade (TKA management) with the abbreviation "MOAT".

    And steal the timeless abbreviation for Mother Of All Tournaments? I think not, my friend. /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

    But nevermind, does anyone have any idea what kinda machines our EVO is on ? I think Zyeith mentioned it before, but I don't think any of us remember.... /versus/images/graemlins/frown.gif

    No offense, an attitude like that is exactly why nothing in Singapore gets down outside of the government.

    "What can little I do? I`ll just sit back and let things happen. If nothing happens, woe is me." Comments like that make me think a strong, authoritarian government is still what Singapore needs.

    TKA is out to make money. Sad thing is it probably doesn`t know what really makes money. Here we have an opportunity to let them know of a way to do that, and at the same time benefit ourselves. Yet, all I see here is more passing the buck. Shame.

    BTW, Final Tuned kicks ass. I don`t think I can go back to Evo.

    I wouldn't deny that you are right. The bulk of the locals are too passive in outlook. geee...

    At the rate things are going, we are probably better off pooling some funds to invest in a FT ourselves. Its ridiculous having to cast pearls before this swine or even beg them to move their butt to get ft.

    Yup, ft kicks ass. Pity that arcades like tka will go down, all thanks to their indifference to consumer tastes. If only Funland still retains its former glory, that would've have made a difference.

    There ain't going to be any miracles, but man-made disasters. Viewer discretion adviced.
