lol they put it in the 3S cabinet with shitty coin slots and broken buttons, GG. Hope they fix that cabinet.what you mean Denjin? were you talking about MB or BB? i haven't been to denjin since the MBAC board fried. or is it back up?
Scott: KoFXII is currently being offered at anywhere from $3500-$4000, not including shipping. I've been quoted $1500 shipped for MBAA used. So it's more like $2000 difference, but you get the idea. Still a significant difference. No way I'm going to pay $2500 for new MBAA hahahaha. No reason to, really.
I'd rather take my chances with a niche game like MBAA, because it is cheaper, and no one around here has it...
MBAA is about $3000 cheaper than KoFXII.
WT died not because of the players but because Arlieth stopped running tournaments. You also have to keep in mind that even when Arlieth popularized the game (and he tried hard and did a great job; he got a lot of FFA people into it and the entire MB community here is because of him) it was already an old game.I'm sure the Simi folk still think MBAC is still a good game. you can't blame the game if the scene died.

I think people took a while to realize that MBAC was, on many levels, not a very good game. Combine that with a very small scene full of many casual players who were in it only because of Tsukihime and had no real competitive drive and the scene was going to thin itself out over time, which led to a snowball effect: people don't want to play a game with a small scene, which led to people quitting, etc. Combine that with the real driving force behind the scene disappearing and you have what is happening now.
