Oh God, this is tonight? Why was I thinking Sunday night?

I'm signed up for the guest list, but damn. Did not see this coming.

Any Kotaku editors showing up tonight? #superstreetfighteriv

So no Dante...:(

Also, wasn't tatsunoko getting 3 chracaters? 2 new ones and another to replace the genji that didn't make it into the US version. #tatsunokovscapcomultimateallst...

@Taggart6 once shot a man just to watch him die.: There's supposed to be. The ESRB description for the game says 26 playable characters, and only 25 have been revealed. The last Tatsunoko character (Yatterman-2) should hopefully be announced soon.

As fasr as Dante goes: [games.kikizo.com]

Kikizo: We've seen Dante appear in other Capcom games as well like Viewtiful Joe. Will he appear in any other Capcom games, and are there any other Capcom characters in DMC4?

Kobayashi: There will not be any other Capcom characters in DMC4, and I have to say, personally I think that Dante has appeared in one too many other games! So I would like this to stop now.

So unless the producer of DMC4 changes his mind, I don't think he'll be appearing in any (more) crossovers. #tatsunokovscapcomultimateallst...

@NeoChaos: Makes sense...I guess I'll throw out Mickey Simon from the old UN squadron game.

His coustume would be his fighter pilot suit and his attack would have a fighter pilot theme (air dive bomb, homing missle projectice and etc.)

His supers would each be a different attack from one of 3 planes in the UN Squadron Game. #tatsunokovscapcomultimateallst...

@Taggart6 once shot a man just to watch him die.: As cool as that'd be, U.N. Squadron was based on a 30-year-old manga/anime series (Area 88, which is also the JP name for the game.) And it's not by Tatsunoko. ]= #tatsunokovscapcomultimateallst...

You know what's great about T v. C? It's one of like six Wii games I can justify burning to a 50 cent blank DVD and playing on my Wii. No longer will I be restricted to SNES ROMs to get use out of this albino novelty device! #tatsunokovscapcomultimateallst...

@mat1cs (still a nerd): No Wii game is worth $50. I'm a university student. I'd die if I wasn't able to spot rip-offs, and the gaming industry is horrible for ripping people off. Think about it: I can buy DVD's for, what, $5 each? Assuming those movies last 2 hours each, that's 28 hours of grade-A entertainment for the cost of a new game ($70 in Canada). Games rarely have 10 hours of gameplay in them these days. Technically, games aren't worth any more than $30-ish to the savvy consumer - if you're willing to spend $70 on a blank disc with copied data on it, you're throwing your money away. Games need to be cheaper, and they need to be better - this should be the developer's onus for making the gamer pay more money for less game. #tatsunokovscapcomultimateallst...

@PyramidHat: Your being a university student is completely irrelevant. Should we feel sorry for you because you are and you use that a crutch for your justifying your pirating? Because I don't.

Playing video games is not a right. If you don't have the money, you don't play. Simple. Just like going to university isn't a right. You save up, prove your worthy of funding and you pay your way. Or you don't go till you do. Same with games. Pay or don't play.

A deadbeat is a deadbeat is a deadbeat. And saying games 'need to be cheaper' when your one of the direct reasons that they cost what they do..the ironing is delicious.

I've met so many like you in my retail life and never ever regretted turning each and everyone like you in to the FBI, the state DA, the school and anyone else I could inform of your cheerful pirating.

@PyramidHat: I hope a douchebag like you never goes bowling ($10 for 3o mins of gameplay? D:), goes to see a sports game ($10-60 for only 4 hours of entertainment? D:), eats anything costing more than $1 (what the heck, only 15 mins of eating? D:), or heck, pays money for anything, because apparently according to you, why pay for anything when you can apparently get everything for free?

A bunch of people worked countless hours for at least a year to put together something, and if you think you're entitled to benefit off their efforts for free because they're not worth the price of legitimately buying it, then I hope you just rot in some cell somewhere.

Oh and those text books you probably buy for your classes? Those are just blank pages with copied data on them. So if you're paying more than $1, you're throwing your money away. #tatsunokovscapcomultimateallst...

@PyramidHat: It's funny because your views are so badly explained that I thought you were making fun of yourself there.

The point is, you can try to validate your point all you want, but how would the world work if people only paid for what they wanted to pay for? If you playing a Wii game isn't a necessity, you don't decide to steal it, you just don't play it. I don't really get why you can't respect that a group of people get paid money to churn out these titles. To download the game is like shitting on them. No matter how you put it bro, you're still a shitty person. #tatsunokovscapcomultimateallst...

@Foxstar is in love with Kotaku's two Brians.: I'm not saying everything in life should be free, I'm saying certain commodities are overpriced. Hell, most are. Some things you need to pay for - food, education, rent, etc., but if the price is too high, people will protest it. Things like games, however, are not necessary, and really, any company with a marketing budget will make a massive return no matter what piece-of-crap shooter they put out. I pay for everything - school, residence, food, etc. I work at an EB Games believe it or not. The greatest travesty? We only make a 3% profit margin on these overpriced games. My store's hours have been cut back because fewer people are buying used games. Oddly enough, this is because Used is priced way too high. _; I mean, $64.99 for a used Killzone? What the fuck?

Anyway, I have no point to make. You've been successfully trolled. Enjoy your virginity. #tatsunokovscapcomultimateallst...

I can rant and rave about how over-priced video games are (and they are), but they got nothing on the textbook guys. HOWEVER! I've discovered the joys of discount textbook stores and used pricing. :D There are ways to get cheaper textbooks. #tatsunokovscapcomultimateallst...

@mat1cs (still a nerd): To be honest, I wanted to post something where people would freak the fuck out and defend a business that hates them but loves their money, which may actually be their parents' money. I succeeded. It really blows my mind that you really wouldn't want games to be cheaper. They could be. Wouldn't it be wonderful to spend less than you have to? I suppose not. I suppose it's worth donating part of your paycheck to someone who doesn't work half as hard as you do. #tatsunokovscapcomultimateallst...

@yourcitylovesyou: Terrible mix-up really.. Allow me to explain,

I have no Wii and no Xbox therefore i keep up only with PS3 games/news, lest it be platform defining changes.

I didn't know a kobun was actually a thing, i was merely referring to a commenter on this site; Kobun.

The little yellow smiley square in the above picture reminded me of his avatar, hence the reaching for fighters. It effectively destroyed my joke but i learned something about "kobuns" today so i'll call it a win.

cheers. #tatsunokovscapcomultimateallst...
