Don't worry guys. A week and a half to go. Hopefully EVO and Otakon bring some juicy info.
Ew.
And we're hating on Otakon because?

There's nothing wrong with Otakon, but I am a bit worried about anything "juicy" coming from there. As long as none of it gets on me then I guess it will be alright.

So yeah, UMVC3 will be released 20 days after XIII, I wonder how much this will affect the game

SNKP can't catch a break no matter how hard they try, USA has a big Capcom sticker behind its ass and a little SNKP pin on it chess, I'm worried that if MVC3 could sell 1.3 million in 4 months, I bet they can get another 1 million from its loyal fans to buy it again thus taking what little amount of people who wanted to buy kof xiii.

SNKP will lose a lot in potential sales, but this is part of business, being 1 up buy a competitor

It's Funny if we consider those rumours which said that SNKP was waiting the release of AE to announce KOF XIII

Hopefully it won't end up getting that many sales, it seems like people are getting more pissed than usual at capcom's "rerelease almost the exact same game every year until it stops making money" business strategy this time around.

I'll be surprise if SNKP said they were going to push the release date until next year to October 25, 2012

The entire roster has now leaked for UMvC3, lol.

I have to say... anyone they add from KoF will excite me more than most of who they added to that game. Maybe that'll give XIII a bit of an edge? It's fresher, everyone won't have a version they purchsed 10 months ago still being played, all of it's new content will actually be... new (unless you count the Iphone stuff), and hopefully not leaked months in advanced, and it'll have nearly a month's head start for word-of-mouth to say "hey, buy this instead, fighting faithful!"

Or they could just do a "You think Raiden is broken? AERIAL X FACTOR is WORSE!" marketing campaign, and almost everyone would believe it! ;) (It might even be true!)

Maybe after this UMvC3 announcement, Atlus decides to release the game earlier in Octuber?

After today's news, this week would be the perfect time to announce a new character and really show the difference between a new iteration of a recently released game and a fresh console version of a new game.

What kind of fighting game misses out on putting Megaman X and Zero in the same iteration, but decides to put in Phoenix Wright?

Move in FELLAS! This is a no-hitter!

Still, there are like 10 guys that I had never heard, or care

I would not be surprise if capcom release six more character next year and charge 20 bucks for them

I really hope SNKP knew of UMVC3, and is ready to swoop in with proving they're the alternative to what that game is giving.

There's no women in their new roster. Hope XIII console doesn't make the same error with it's new characters.

MvC is now getting spectator mode, so XIII's netcode better be up to par, if not better, as a new lobby-friendly game will be coming around the same time.

UMvC3 is also adding new moves to old characters. Will we see that in XIII as well?

The DBZ game coming out on the same day wasn't any REAL comp. But with Capcom directly having something, at 10 bucks cheaper, that comes out less than a month from XIII... will the marketing change in any way, to reflect this?

It's gonna be an interesting thing to watch! In an odd way, this makes me even more hype for XIII, lol.

Oh yeah, and no hate for Phoenix Wright... if Capcom does as good a job with making him "a joke, but relevant!" as SNKP does with Shingo, he'll be fantastic to have in a game. Megaman X Omission is pretty sad, however...
