I saw that a while ago, but I'm certainly having a very hard time believing it. There just seems no way this would be possible.

It still makes me wonder though...

This looks to be quite the competition next year....worldwide too.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec 19, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- SEGA(R) of America, Inc. today announced the SEGA Cup: Virtua Fighter Tournament 2013. The tournament, in partnership with Level|Up, will take place in Los Angeles at the Super Arcade on April 20, 2013. Cash prizes will be awarded to the top 16 players. The version for the PlayStation(R)3 computer entertainment system will be used for the competition.

Based on the latest arcade version of the celebrated Virtua Fighter series, Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown launched in June 2012 for PlayStation(R)Network (PSN) and for Xbox LIVE(R) Arcade for the Xbox 360(R) video game and entertainment system from Microsoft (XBLA). It was a critical and commercial success and maintained the Virtua Fighter series' reputation of being the "fighting game fan's fighter."



The SEGA Cup: Virtua Fighter Tournament will be an annual competition and will be open to all Virtua Fighter fans. To assist fans in training for the event, SEGA will launch the official Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown Guide on the App Store(TM) today for $0.99. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/virtua- ... d585829622

How ironic that Inazuma Eleven's got the Number 1 Spot whilst Yakuza 5 had to settle for 3rd.

SEGA wants that Inazuma Eleven monies...

Edit: Wrath of the Death Rabbit will be discounted on Xbox Live TODAY!

Not sure if this is the thread to post this but did anyone ever notice the Sonic & Knuckles screen shot on the back of the DS collection game had both characters in play at once? Did make a balls-up on that or was it deliberate just to show you can play as Knuckles in the game?

Oh, I remember that. I thought it could be some kind of local multiplayer at first, mostly because you can see Sonic and Knuckles on stage together, not done before.

But yeah, might be a mock-up.

Does it have any multiplayer? Like for Sonic 2 or 3?
