In SDTEKKEN news. I know we’ve been teasing at it for awhile, but a new site redesign (teaser here) is almost 100% complete. The staff here has been working (sometimes frustratingly) in porting over the site to make the complete change. With the change you’ll see a lot more content and a bigger focus on the fighting game community side of things. So expect a lot more coverage on ALL of the fighting games out there… And of course all things TEKKEN <3 !
TekkenReplays has been doing a great job providing some awesome replay action from Japanese arcades since the game came out about a month ago. One of their latest uploads features two very prominent names in the competitive TEKKEN scene. Yuu of NoRespect (Lars & Feng Wei) up against Mainstreet Ryu (Kazuya & Heihachi)… Wait, what?! Mainstreet Ryu!? The retired legend may be back! This is good news for TEKKEN fans. While we await confirmation, don’t miss out on this great display of Mishima skill in TTT2!
EDIT: Mishimastar has confirmed that this is Niidaime Mainstreet Ryu (2nd).
