"Player vs player is not available" that's dumb. If you are limiting the roster to 6 characters already let people try it with a friend, they are missing potential sales by not allowing people have fun locally. Don't have too much fun.

Other than that cool.

Legit fun fact, one of my earliest fighting game memories was the Xbox Live Arcade demo of KOF'98UM. It had six characters - Team Japan, Kyo/Beni/Daimon, and Team Ikari, Ralf/Clark/Leona. And you could play that two player. So I spent hours playing a fuckin demo with a friend and it's such a great memory for me. I think it was even before I picked up Street Fighter 4 and BlazBlue Calamity Trigger and truly got into the genre. I must've been 9 or 10.

My dad didn't understand online gaming back then and still doesn't now, no way 10 year old me was convincing him to get me some "Microsoft Points" to buy the full version of a game that didn't come in an actual box. So online demos that still allowed multiplayer were HUGE for me as a kid.

Times really have changed, I guess...

That opens the door for a small community of 6 player tournaments SNK wouldn’t see a dime for.

Let’s be real, no it wouldn’t.

Isn't this game already really niche? Would there really be such a big community for it?
