If you haven’t been on the Internet for the past two years, you may not have noticed the phenomenon that is Street Fighter 4 and just how much of a renaissance it brought to the fighting game scene in the United States. Live streams on the Internet for Street Fighter 4 events happen several times a week, with major events drawing tens of thousands of viewers from around the world. Daigo Umehara and Justin Wong have pretty much become household names.
Austin’s own Arcade UFO is bringing us the Fantastic Arcade Cup, which will pit 16 of the Southwest’s best against each other in a deadly single-elimination tournament with cash prizes for the top placers. A Live Stream will be broadcast online for the whole Internet to ride the hype.
12 players will be pre-qualified for the event from satellite tournaments around Texas, but 4 more warriors will have a chance to participate in the finals, determined by a Single-Elimination event starting Sunday at 12 pm (sign-ups start at 11:30 am).
Leave your pads at home; this event will take place on an authentic Japanese Vewlix Arcade Cabinet, the standard for tournament play in Japan’s national Street Fighter championships.
