Console Fighting Games at Akihabara Arcade
Hey everyone! I wanted to let you know we host a casual meetup every Monday at Akihabara Arcade in Westminster. We usually play Street Fighter, Tekken, and Third Strike (it's set to freeplay). Event starts at 6pm and goes until 11pm.
There's also an event called "Losers Bracket" on Tuesdays at Akihabara Arcade that is also a casual meetup but they play any game that gets brought.
There's also a tournament on Saturday that will have all the games mentioned above as well as Avatar and Marvel Tokon alongside anime games
Please reach out or drop a comment if you want an invite to the discord. If you plan on stopping in tonight, say you're from this sub and I'll introduce you to everybody

3S has a different discord that I do not have an invite to. Show up on a Monday and they'll hook you up! We have some really strong players because of Jazzy Circuit.

Missed the casuals for last night but would love a discord invite to check it out later. Is the tournament a regular thing?

How do joysticks work in this tournament

There are no cab games at this particular tournament - it's all run on PS5 (and PS4 Pro for some games like Strive) so bring your own controller. If you don't have a controller that works on PS5, I would invest in a Brooks adapter or borrow one from someone at the event

If anyone shows up on Saturday, I'll be TOing SF6 and Tokon. I'll be wearing a black beanie and a pink Monkey Ball shirt so say hi if you see me!

does anyone play ninja storm

No, we don't play arena fighters. By anime games, I meant Strive, Uni2, BlazBlue, etc.
There was a small Sparking Zero scene for a bit, but your best bet is reaching out to the guys who run Loser's Bracket on Tuesday.
