From the original Capcom-Unity announcement:
You will have the chance to win various codes for Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition just by watching and interacting with our social channels. In the afternoon before each show, we’ll tweet out a specific hashtag on the Street Fighter or Capcom Fighters Twitter account. All you need to do is use that hashtag in a tweet of your own before the drawing begins at around 8:15 PM PT. During the show, we’ll randomly choose winners and announce them on-stream. After the show, expect a Direct Message from the Street Fighter or Capcom Fighters accounts with your code. The codes are currently only for North America.
If you’re an artist or cosplayer, tweet @StreetFighter with pictures of your creation and we just might feature it on the stream with all credit going towards you!

Take advantage of Abigail’s gigantic hurt box with Ken’s tatsu in Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition
World Warrior FGC has shared much in the way of complicated Ken-specific Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition tech with us over the years. However, sometimes it’s just nice to go gawk at gigantic damage, and that’s almost certainly what you’ll do after you see what he’s created for the Ken-Abigail match-up.
Maybe this is an understatement, but Abigail’s giant hurt box becomes a huge liability against Ken. The firey shoto can suddenly find himself landing multiple hits of his heavy kick Tatsu as combo starters, including up to 3 hits in the corner alone!

Yasuyuki Oda talks about working at old SNK, SNK Heroines, and more in this new interview with Arcade Attack
We almost had Cathy and Roddy from Top Hunter in SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy.
Yasuyuki Oda is someone who’s had a long history with SNK. While he rejoined the company for King of Fighters XIV, he also got his start in the company over 20 years ago back in 1993.
In a new interview, Arcade Attack talks to Oda about his history with the company, talking about how it was like to work there back in the day. Oda talks about his initial work as an artist and later doing testing for games such as Fatal Fury Special and Art of Fighting 2. Now, working as a producer in a revitalized SNK, he says that he’s able to use his experience working on fighting games to teach newer staff about them and their development.
Moving over to their most recent release, SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy, they talk about looking at female characters from SNK’s various titles and bringing them into the game. While they started with the popular ones from past games, they also looked at newer characters and how they could make them more popular. Additionally, Oda admits that he wishes they could have added even more characters, specifically pointing to Cathy and Roddy from Top Hunter.
Of course, this is just a small part of the interview. Read the rest over at Arcade Attack, where they go over things such as Oda’s favorite SNK games and character, non-SNK titles, and more.

NTSC versions of games like Tekken 3 and Battle Arena Toshinden can be accessed on PlayStation Classic — with a trick
Recently, we reported on the fact that some of the games on the PlayStation Classic, including a couple of fighting games, would be the PAL versions with the incorrect frame rate. Now, a method has surfaced to be able to play these games as the NTSC versions.
The trick to setting the console to play in NTSC simply involves access the settings of the emulator used by the PlayStation Classic. As the video below from Retro Gaming Arts demonstrates, this menu is pretty easy to access: all players need to do is to plug in a USB keyboard, and then press the ESC key.
Doing the above gives full access the the settings for the PCSX ReARMed emulator used by the console. Players can switch to NTSC by going to the “Options” menu and switching “Region” from “Auto” to “NTSC.”
Now, take note that some folks have stated that they haven’t been able to access the menu, and it seems that not all keyboards are recognized by the system. Additionally, as demonstrated in the video, changing some of the other settings can cause the system to crash.
