Actually SNK was shocked when Shane Bettenhouse told them that their netcode sucked ass and that Japan was roughly a little bigger than half of California.  SNK was shocked to realize how big the US is.  At least that's what it was when it was posted on the Ignition boards for KOF XII way back when.
Who the f**k is that Shane Bettenstuff...?!
And what are you talking about, "Actualy..." so means KOF XIII, or KOF XII in Ignition boards?!...
And finaly, what is pertinent in your post?! Srry Just asking causes I dont see anything...
worked for ignition entertainment not that hard to use google and it's not like he was lying either though i do beleive the comment was made toward kof 12 instead of 13 but to be honest not like it matters because both suck ass though one sucks a little less

Wrong spelling.  His name is Shane Bettenhausen.  He's the one that used to be editor of EGM, he was also the Director of Business Development for Ignition entertainment and it was his call for King of Fighters XII console release.  He was the one that talked to SNKP about the netcode for KOF XII and talked to them personally to fix the netcode and what America wanted.

He's also famous for his journalism and telling everyone point blank that the reason Xbox is preferred is because Microsoft gave EVERY magazine journalist FREE 360s.  FREE copies of the games and FREE years of Xbox live.  

Shane is also called Mangod for some odd reason.

The reason it's important is because he was on SNKP's ass for over a year about their netcode.  He actually tried to hold them accountable for it and tried to get them to fix the shitty netcode.  SNKP did the Japanese thing and said "Not possible" when in America you crack your fucking back and MAKE it possible.

I still wonder why SNKP went with GSS again.  They make a great game that sold more in the western world but still has shitty Japanese netcode that can suck my balls.

Guys I am very curious to find out how many copies XIII sold until today. Is there a way to find out?

All I know is that it sold more than UMvC3 and SFxT (according to VGchartz).

That Shane guy seems to deserve the nickname Mangod.

I think an Ultimate Match would be the best choice. I don't think they need to bring a new system; this system is great IMHO. They can add 21 more characters, 10 more stages and refine the characters by adding more DM's, win poses and special character intros and sell it for 30$ (I know I am dreaming but if they did this I'll buy 4 copies of the game for me my cousins and friend even if it's 60$).

VGchartz is bs.

There are no known sales numbers for the game.

And again, VGChartz is straight worthless.  I think I'm gonna put it in my sig with how much I have to say it.

And a UM would be best...a year from now at the earliest.
On 5/26, something that defined a generation shall make its rightful return.  #Toonamisbackbitches.  Prepare yourselves.  Bang.

Just think about a random number, and that number will be more accurate than VGChartz info.

Capcom just said they sold more than a million copies of SFxT (and also +1M of RE:ORC), so that's the closest we have to official sales for that side.

21 characters is beyond dreaming m8 :D if they manage to make so many characters in 2 years at best then they will need to charge full price.
