You voted for the right game right?
Right answer is umvc3
why wouldn't i vote for Windjammers?
Memes aside, Killer Instinct deserves the spot
Cant decide between Arms and Windjammers
Windjammers the only correct choice
Where the fuck is Rivals? nidhogg? the fuck
>tfw favorite game already got in
Might support Marvel if I feel like it, but I actually don't like watching the game so it would be solely for community reasons. Hell, most of the games there I'm not even super excited for to begin with.
As long as a game with even the hint of an actual competitive community makes it in rather than a meme game like Windjammers or Arms, I will be satisfied.
As long as it's from the bottom row, I'll be happy
seriously though who the fuck is dumping so much money into pokken
literally the least active competitive game on the entire list, I'd almost argue it's less popular than fucking windjammers
who is paying thousands for it?? specially since it has less donors than KI or Marvel
What do the donation totals look like?
as a sonygger, i've played KI with friends on their xbox and i unironically think it's one of the top 3 best fighting games this gen
>who is paying thousands for it??
You already know the answer
What the fuck Nidhogg is doing there
Does Pokken really have that many autists with money?
I didn't know ANYONE played that shit.
Nintendo really thinks people are going to care about ARMS. I just have to let that sink in. They really think anyone considers ARMS a fighting game that will develop any kind of nuance or community
a fucking bubblegum-saccharine wagglin game that involves jerky hand motions and looks like it was made for small children
even if it had a really interesting story mode (which I really, truly doubt modern Nintendo is even capable of), i cannot see it taking off even just as a game let alone as an esport.
they must think the popularity of smash means nintendo itself is popular which is not at all the case
No, I genuinely don't. Who the fuck cares about Pokken? I've never seen anything but complaints in Pokken fandom
>everyone online spams too much, they're too obsessed with winning through dirty tactics!
>why can't we have the characters from the arcade version?!
>why is x handled this way
etc
Game looks fun.
Looks like it has the basics of a fighting game down.
That's honestly enough.
>the basics of a fighting game
Jutting your hand out stiffly and slowly twisting your wrist inward to turn your projectile mid-flight doesn't sound basic or fun
Neither does inputting arcane commands into a fight stick until you do it.
I'd rather be strapped to a chair and forced to watch an entire year's worth of Pokken tournaments than allow UMvC3 back to the surface again.
That shit hasn't been good for YEARS
People like Windjammers now?
But according to some faNbase the neo geo had no games.
You know, the publisher?
This is free advertising after all.
>KI got shafted
shame, it looks like a really cool game
ARMS is very, very mind-games focused rather than mechanically so. Every action has a clear, heavy commitment to it.
And the mind games are easy to understand from a spectator's perspective.
It could be very entertaining to watch.
Also the motion controls are optional.
I'm not sure why they didn't just throw in UMvC3 since this is guaranteed to be its last year anyway.
The game I wanted is already in, since the best game will probably never be on main stage again.
But the correct answer is Mahvel.
>mfw Pokken is winning right now
fpbp
>This is free advertising after all.
For what? Not like they're updating the game.
>free advertising
To WHO, though? Nintendo has abandoned the console, and the playerbase was never very active in the first place. They fucked up Pokken in just about every way they could have, right down to the stupid Pokken-exclusive controller and not being able to share one screen like ANY fighting game would sanely do.
anything but fucking Marvel
those fucks need to go away
I sure did
Uh... okay? Let me send your complaint back in time to the late 90s and see if it gets through.
vote arms it has the highest potential of a nintendrone killing punching or sperging someone
>those fucks need to go away
reminder that MvCI comes out this year
generosity.com/explore?filter_title=evo#/search
>motion controls are optional
Wait, what? Isn't that the entire point of the game? Playing it with a controller sounds even less appealing since the novelty of it is supposed to be moving your hands to play it... Nintendo what the fuck

Get out Cancer. Shit like you is the reason we're getting such a weak lineup.

We all know another anime game getting in would be for the best
Obviously Windjammers.
L. Biagi best character.
FORZA!
They actually still are. Just the arcade version in Japan, even though the Wii U's all but dead. It's pretty obvious they'll be doing a Switch port/sequel with this, so they'll still want the advertising EVO would give it.
>Voting for the one of the most popular games in the world as if it's not going to have a side-tourney
>Not voting for the FGC underdog, SNK.
Not even that user, but Capcom doesn't deserve to be rewarded after SFV.
>nidhogg
What the fuck?
This. KI shouldn't even be dumped into a fan pick vote.
>It's pretty obvious they'll be doing a Switch port/sequel with this
What in the world gave you that impression? I always saw it as an experiment that didn't pay off at all despite decent sales
>Damned if you do, damned if you don't
>So include both options
I don't see the problem here.
But KI had the lowest numbers of entrants and viewers last year.
I guess I just don't see the purpose of the game at all, and if it's not purely focused on the motion controls there is even less reason for it to exist
Marvel will beat KI and I'll cry myself to sleep
ummmmmmmmmm
xcom2
>FGC underdog, SNK
Senpai SNK is already in. It has as many representatives as Crapcom in fact. Not to mention SNK pulled some insane shit on their days too.
Also let's be honest here, who really cares for side tourneys?
It was a lot of fun to watch tho. Gargos was ridiculous
UMVC is justin win great end.
I want a big skullgirls pot mostly because I want to see japanese get serious about the game. The japs that turned up at animevo were small fry. I want to see what GO1 Painwheel looks like.
>literally the least active competitive game on the entire list
It's a lot more active than you might think
>"It has as many representatives as Crapcom in fact."
>MvC3 is still one of the top two donation games in the lead
>Thinking they didn't just put Marvel up for donation since it's getting a new game this year
You're also ignoring the fact that MvC3 has been at EVO since its release, while KoFXIII hasn't been a mainstage title for three or four years running now. I'm not saying SNK is blameless as a company, but they sure as fuck deserve more for the past few fighting games and ports they released than Capcom does.
If they didn't have further console plans with it, why would they keep adding more fighters to the arcade version?
Vampire Savior ain't here, bruh
Because arcades in Japan are struggling to stay relevant, hence why Dissidia 3 is exclusive to arcades for a year, along with Tekken 7 which is already old news in foreign arcades
That just makes it all the more reasonable to think they plan on doing a Switch release for Pokken.
Persona 4 Ultimax also got major updates in arcades, that they never bothered applying to the console version.
Seriously, and that was a huge update we never got, practically a full overhaul 2.0, I'll always be a little butthurt about it since it made Shadows actually viable. Genuinely don't understand Japan sometimes
>"It has as many representatives as Crapcom in fact."
It indeed has as many representatives as Crapcom. It CAN not have, but i doesn't yet. Let's not put the cart in front of the horse here.
>KoFXIII hasn't been a mainstage title for three or four years running now.
Have you ever tried to play KOF XIII online? I did. Playerbase dictates EVO participation, and with a netcode like that it's no wonder the game was dropped. Hard to enter a game on EVO when almost no one cares for the competitive scenario.
>but they sure as fuck deserve more for the past few fighting games and ports they released than Capcom does.
The hell man
SNK fighting game ports have a history of being borderline unplayable. Say what you will about SF3 online's abusive DLC or SSF2T HD Remix (Damn that's a long acronym) but at least it fucking worked.
Literally the best move they could have made regarding the game and you're going to question it. Jesus christ.
Objectively correct list.
I'd say KI deserves mainstage too, but I wish it was Skullgirls more, so yeah.
That's the one I'd vote for, no question. Who wouldn't like to watch two really skilled people fight for every inch of a stage?
I'm not a big fighting game fan, but bear with me. It's definitely impressive to see talented players in a fighting game. But I imagine that this sort of high-level playing would be a lot more engaging at Nidhogg, where there's absolutely nothing going in the background, viewers see a purely literal representation of all the players' actions, and neither contestant can simply wear the other down. While mastering the controls in traditional fighting games is half the thing, in Nidhogg, mastering the game and your enemy are all that matters. Plus, viewers don't need to know a damn thing about the game in order to appreciate what's happening.
Of course, I don't go in for esports anyway, maybe because what I think makes a game interesting and competitive is too simple for people who work & watch this shit like a job. I wonder if anyone else feels the same way?
Just play it on pc then, it has been cracked
*Never got officially
FTFY.
>The online for KoFXIII is bad!
>The online for MvC3 is perfect!
>SNK fighting game ports have a history of being borderline unplayable
All this tells me is that you haven't played their PS4 ports of Garou or Last Blade 2. I honestly wish Capcom would bring SFIII to PS4 though. And we don't talk about Turbo HD. It might "work," but they fucked up a lot of things with that game. Regardless of ports or the like, my vote would still go to Garou. There's enough good SFII footage to keep one satisfied for life. The same can't be said for many SNK games that aren't KoF.
It was made because they had an idea for a fighting game and they thought "hey, motion controls would work great with this game too!" So they put in motion controls
It was just a game made because they wanted a flashy 3D fighting game that has elements of fighters and also shooters.
This is quite an ARMS race
>The online for MvC3 is perfect!
Who the fuck said it was good? It's detestable, in fact. Mind you i am not defending Crapcom or MVC 3's netcode, both can go to hell for all i care.
>All this tells me is that you haven't played their PS4 ports of Garou or Last Blade 2.
I have played the Garou port for Xbox 360. It has bad netcode (surprise!). I own Last blade 2 for PS4 and played it. It's better, but still has a long way to go. Conclusion: It's getting better, but too little too late. Just because a company makes very slight improvements doesn't mean we should start showering praise and roses on it. SNK still has a long way to go.
> There's enough good SFII footage to keep one satisfied for life. The same can't be said for many SNK games that aren't KoF.
Lack of footage? For Garou? You just don't know where to search, man.
Honestly surprised that Marvel is put up to a vote but KOFXIV got the confirmed nod. Good for KOF though, it deserves it.
Honestly there's no way any game but Pokken or Marvel will win, and I like both games so I'm cool with that, although I'd prefer Marvel so it gets a Swan Song before Infinite.
I'd be fine with KI, ST, or Skullgirls, too, but I think it'd be way cooler to see one of the wildcards like ARMS or nidhogg get the nod if something other than Pokken or Marvel got in.
Fuck MKX though. Only game I'd get mad at if it won.
Post your Pokken main.
>nidhogg
>pokken
>skullgirls
you got me
Windjammers? Of course I did
UMVC needed mkxl and ki and gg netcode
MKX is rather a favorite game, but I too looked at ESL for too long.
I hope that someone will take off sonic fox. (Either skullgirls or DOA)
>The meme game from several years ago that's about to be outdated and is absolutely godawful to watch is winning
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I really hope Pokken wins. I'm so sick of Marvel. At least watching Pokken last year was moderately coherent.
>tfw don't care for pokken but despise umvc3
Would rather have arms for salt but oh well
literally anything but UMVC3 is the right answer
even fucking arms
WEAVILES GO HOME
>no bloody roar
Will there ever be justice in this world?
this
>Woooow this game looks like shit I don't want to waggle my arms around
>You don't have to, motion controls are optional
>Woooow waggling is the entire point of the game that sucks
Skullgirls deserves the win.
Nidhogg is fun to watch.
Windjammers is cool.
Every other answer is a meme for retards, something that needs to fuck off or Killer Instinct which I have no opinion of.
>Acceptable Tier
Mahvel
Pokken
KI
Skullgirls
>Meme Tier
Arms
Windjammers
>Fuck Off Tier
MKX
>lel Tier
Nidhogg
SFII
The answer is not Pokken. Because ST won't win, best to converge on the more popular option which is UMVC3.
>He wants Marvel to win
>He actually thinks Marvel is a good spectator game
Surprised Catherine isn't on there, honestly.
>wagglin game
I can tell this is shitpost
Only fucking Nintendo autists could take something like Arms seriously. The game isn't out yet, and it's glorified waggle garbage, but it's by Nintendo so it must be great, right? Fuck off.
My 6 says that ARMS will win
