SNK, release Leona Fruit Kinect NOW
Not to burst your bubble, but isn't Fruit Ninja a iPhone game? But I can see why you said Kinect, since Leona is using her full body. Oh well, off topic stuff. lol
The Customization is amazing, it had to be SNKP to step it up and show everybody how it's done. Heck after this I don't mind paying money for any of their DLC, the Customization Option has just save me way more.
EDIT: I thought MMCafe translations were posted here already, but it seems not, let me post them:
Since Toxico hasn't posted translations yet, I'll take the initiative for this round.

For some reason, SNKP isn't calling it "color edit mode". They're calling it "character customization". My guess is that they consider it more than just the usual color editing, since you can make characters look like they've got bionic arms and stuff. Anyways, I'll summarize the points.
Character Customization
- This time, you won't be changing the RGB values. Instead, you'll be picking out of a selection of colours.
- You can save up to 5 presets per character.
- There's going to be a lot of parts that can be colored. Take for example the case of Terry. He has a whopping 21 parts that can be changed, like his shoelaces and belt buckle.
- By default, there's 10 selectable colors per part (the same colors as that of 1P - 10P). In the case of skin color, it'll be a bit different: the left-top color in the selection window will be that of the 1P color, and the rest are shared amongst all characters in the game.
- You can unlock additional colors every time you play with that character. The additional colors are shared between all characters and all parts. (That's exactly what it says in the blog. Make sense? Not completely to me.) New colors have a star icon on them.
- During the customization screen, you can change the character pose by pressing start, which switches the character between three poses: front, back, and misc. The misc pose is different between each character and it basically lets you see places that are usually hidden.
- Example screenshot in blog features Kim and Takuma with Kim Jae Hoon and Khushnood Butt colored costumes. It also features a Doraemon colored Benimaru and Ronald Mcdonald Maxima.
щ(ﾟДﾟщ)!!! But there it was nothing there when I went to bed! It's a trap! A conspiracy! I'm being framed!!!
Well, since Prof already accurately surmised what's worth it from the customize article, I'll name a few things from their public events :
Basically, one was in Nagoya and the other one was in Osaka. To make long story short, the Osaka one was held in SNK headquarters and the Nagoya one was held in a local where one of the previews for KoF XII was held; thus the places where much more crowd friendly and pretty much for both events for about the same amount of people that showed up in Tokyo could be found; they are kinda of exited about the support that they are getting.
Now, as a personal note if you are asking me it looks like they weren't interesting in over spending when promoting the game or something; the place for all of these events was "set" from the start we have that Tokyo had to do with a very cheap and uncomfortable location, and the other cities got good places not because they where thinking about the size of the audience, but because it would be cheap to do something there.
Also, about the customize deal, I remember reading that they told us that "parts" for the characters might be available (such as a "with moon" or "without moon" for Yagami's back); I suppose that they are calling it that customization to be more hip and all? Also using a new name for it instead of the old one kinda looks like they are advertising changes to the system instead of keeping it as it was.
