I will say that I had more fun playing Rose in SFV than I have with any character in 6, but that's more of a roster than a game design problem. I definitely wouldn't want Crush Counters and V-Triggers back.

There was one exception: Soul Calibur V blew every rollback netcode of that time out of the water. That was such a smooth experience it's hard to believe it was delay-based (and it still baffles me that they completely messed it up with VI).

I've recently had my second win in F-Zero 99 and managed to place third in a tournament. Despite how frantic it is I find it to be the perfect game to play for 20 minutes after work and wind down. It's soothing chaos and the least rage-inducing multiplayer game I've played since ... heck, I don't even know.

After playing F-Zero 99 I feel like cuddling a kitten, after Mario Kart I feel like strangling it.

Yeah, I thought I was reading that incorrectly. Basically rewriting history with that post. Next up: "I hate how strict links are in SF6, I want the lenient timing from SFIV back."

Funnily enough I actually won my very first race. There's a certain element of luck involved and it was on Death Wind, which I presume a lot of newbies picked because the layout looks easy (joke's on them). Haven't won anything else since then, but the kudos points are in my bad and will never go away.
 
Game is decent overall, but its release timing is just as tonedeaf as Federation Force's back in the day.

That is one hell of a cool hommage. Pixel Marisa would fit right into that blocky walking animation from classic Castlevania games.

Very late to the party but I watched some of those Endingwalker sets from the recent UK tournament and his IDGAF playstyle was absolutely hilarious, like Jyobin incarnate. The commentators also had a lot of fun with it. I don't want to take away anything from him of course, he's a great player, but it's pretty obvious Ryu simply doesn't work as a neutral controlling zoner/footsie archetype anymore with all the powercreep going on around him, so you just have to embrace the YOLO and laugh at how it's diametrically opposed to what his personality is about.

Different game but when I was 10 hours into SF4 with basically no FG exp I def couldn’t do an SPD lol. I could do charge moves in training mode with no distractions lol

Fox was cute in Two and 1/2 Men, but shortly after she started a race with our planet's oceans to see who can accumulate the most plastic in the shortest amount of time.

I dunno, selling a costume for 15 bucks a pop is not necessarily the kind of goodwill-hunting (yes, very cheap pun) you'd want to do to get people excited for your own game.
 
That said, there is indeed a bit of a Turtle resurgence happening (Shredder's Revenger, Cowabunga Collection, the upcoming Ronin game), so maybe you're not that far off the truth.

You're all taking that tweet not literal enough, he's obviously talking about Manon and Cammy and he's absolutely right.
