BTW it has been confirmed that I was correct (and the NZ supplier was wrong): Our collector's edition is the UK version (i.e. both figurines, no soundtrack).

Cool!

I Kinda wanted the soundtrack... but getting both figurines is way better!  Not so much need to get both ltd editions now  ;D ;D My wife WILL be pleased!
All who oppose me will be destroyed.  Maybe.

Will be the hotness

for a 50 minute gameplay session with the console version by some SRK members. Tons of cool options (INDIVIDUAL character jap/eng voice change options! Vertical placement of the ultra/super bar!), awesome looking trial mode... I didn't think I could look forward to this more, but now I am!

(probably going to play Rose I think)
[still need an arcade char though... rufus maybe?]

Rufus is kinda boring albeit hilarious cos of all the funny shit that happens during a rufus match . Play viper she's the most fun to play imo but pretty execution intensive for such a simple game. Hell any of the new chars are fun

Watching now. Looks like they've put a lot of effort into it.

Now THAT is what I'm talking about.

Cammy's english VA is hot sounding :D

If only my 360 hadn't died again...

Just BTW, Red Ant (the AU/NZ distributor of Capcom) has gone bust, so whether this will get a release over here is a bit up-in-the-air atm. More news as it comes.

I'm sure firstgames.co.nz will be able to get us some from the UK if worst comes to worst though.

Fuck. Looks like I'll have to import a pad from Play-Asia, or something. Their standard 360 stick is $100USD though, so I'm not too sure where else I should try.

Is looking like the option im gonna go for. $80 US, so $150 NZ, plus whatever postage is. Still pretty expensive.

He's the hero NZism deserves.
But not the one it needs right now.
So we'll hunt him.
Because he can take it.
Because he's not our Hero.
He's a Niuean Guardian.
A watchful poster.

Cool, false alarm, ppl: http://www.edge-online.com/news/capcom-quells-australia-release-fears

However it probably will still turn out cheaper getting it from firstgames tbh.

Don't buy this, it's shit. The black HRAP (which a friend of mine, HeartNana, bought) is also pretty shitty because it uses a fake JLF and Hori buttons, soldered to the PCB.

The SFIV sticks are basically the only option, and the SFIV pad is basically the only worthwhile 360 controller. I'll probably get the pad first and the sticks later. I just finished modding a HRAP1 which I received from Japan, so I'm not in the mood to mod anything further right now.
