Who needs a manual?
Oh and can't wait!
I thought the East were always obsessed with SF and VF mainly
The market over there is always interesting. Seems very specific and particular.

Tekken is pretty popular too it's true. Not as big as VF and SF I don't think

However I do understand that dumb ass pirates/hackers are ruining things for the rest of us, and even worse game buying practices at places like Gamestop where they basically encourage people to wait until a used copy is available is also affecting things on top of dumb ass game reviewers who mostly seem to think that Street Fighter is the ONLY fighting game in existance so they will unfairly compare and complain and just not help in providing the information a newbie might need to give VF a try...
Yes its a shame that they are going the DLC way... assuming people have always on, online service and INFINITE HDD space.
and @GriftGFX you think its my loss? thats great, I think its SEGA's loss but then again I also understand and can predict how a game review from a western review site will go like "ZOMG they only added 3 characters, bad SEGA bad, just buy Street Fighter... or better yet buy Call of Duty"

Japan isn't as Virtua Fighter crazy as you think. It has an audience but it's not even big by fighting game standards.

Soul Calibur, I would argue (for many years) has a much bigger following outside of Japan (just like MvsC and hence why a new game was really made) I would wager its no where close to Virtua Fighter in audience... it is a very nice game and all.
@Megido its not that "the rest of the world don't give a shit about VF" its that when it comes to coverage, Virtua Fighter series in lets say US/NA market mostly never gets the same fair and repeat coverage games like Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Halo and Call of Duty get.
That applies to print magazines mainly and also to online websites.
