General:
Welcome to April motherfuckers !
Ha ha ha ha ! Just kidding . . That's a bit out of character for me huh ! Did I alarm you ? No worries , I have not gone rogue , just a bit older ! Some cool things in store !
Quick Note ! Please , DO NOT CHANGE SETTINGS ON ANY OF THE STREAMING GEAR ! It takes several days ( this is not a joke ) to fix when someone accidently kills it . It's a major time sink , please don't do this ? If you would like to learn to use the equipment outside of picking up a headset , talk to Yams and she can teach you how it all works
There is a guide to be left in Tthe Cage for basic operation in the works !
Broadcast :
Our YouTube side stream has been upgraded ! Initially the intent with an old dumpster dived laptop was to use as a DVR to record 3rd Strike rotations and then upload match footage . After gathering thoughts , everyone was hype about the idea of just streaming it directly to YouTube . This allowed us to preserve a better quality and directly uploaded ! It was very well received .
With the old head to head computer replaced , we have moved this to take over the 3rd Strike stream . It's quite an upgrade with higher bitrate stream , better camera performance and the addition of a room mic .
Now that the old DVR has been freed up , it will continue on setup as a DVR again this time for the Versatile City B . We will start uploading match footage from KOF 2002 / UM or other games during tournaments .
Space :
You might remember back on the 03/08/24 Weekly Update , there were drafted plans to update the floorplan of the Upstairs Hall .
We have done just that !
A viewing monitor has been added to the hall . Currently running the stream and switchable to being a spectator monitor for Soul Calibur 2 during tournaments .
The MVC 2 machine is being moved upstairs with the other US Uprights until we move to our next location . Soul Calibur 2 now has the appropriate space needed . Things are much better suited for the warmer season now and beyond !
Game Soft :
The King of Fighters 2002 Ultimate Match Tougeki Ver. is now supported on the Versatile City B . There are now 3 available systems running this title for tournament play . This setup has been heavily vouched for so we're giving this a shot . This has also been tested to not have the issues with controllers that we had previously with UM ( one of the main reasons for being pulled last week ) .
Arcana Heart FULL ! is now supported on the Versatile City B .
Title Updates :
Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection ( because it updates weekly . . )
Mortal Kombat 1
Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising
Skullgirls 2nd Encore
Guilty Gear -STRIVE-
Tekken 8
Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons
Under Night IN-Birth II Sys:Celes
Website :
We added a page for the Araiguma Shop ! Currently a way to show all stock / prices for Araiguma merch ! Good showing for all in person folks who would like to show their support !
Currently no way to place orders online except for sending a message through the contact form . Many have reached out from afar wanting to support and get our dope slaps and badges ! So now they can ! This is currently the most manageable way we can be set up for this before fully launching the shop where things are orderable from the page !
