- Who still play Vampire Saviour at a serious level in the world ?
Excuse me if I'm a little too direct but - screw you. Japanese people still do, Umehara did played some Savior last year, and it's definitely the part of this Tôgeki I'm looking forward to since they announced during the first Tôgeki that rampaging waves of Savior players attacked the tournament with grenade launchers, killed many grannies to steal their money filled Vuiton purses to perform some sort of secret satanic voodoo ceremony which meaning was kept secret until now, then shitted in the eyes of the staff until they promised Savior will be there next year.
Yes, that's how things happenned.
Edit : and I guess Chaos is not there because there are already 2 SNK titles (well, one and a half actually). I can imagine SNK prefers to see their 2 more recent titles gaining some free publicity, especially since when the final of the tournament will happen, the domestic versions of 2k3 and (hopefully) SS0 will be in store, while Chaos will be near dead and Chaos 2 may begin to exist.
I don't think it has anything to do with Chaos popularity (or lack of). Hell, CvS2 is still there, with the non stop waves of Sagat, Cammy and Blanka ahead, and even #reload... Which is interesting, because they chose this version upon Isuka.
Edit 2 : and no, these are the only 8 games selected.

You certainly noticed that they have avoid to organize tournaments on games (which are still massively played) where Japanese guys had a really low chance to win like KOF'02, SoulCalibur2 or SvC.
As far as I'm concern, I think that this SBO2 will maybe to be a little bit insipid compare to the Evo2003, even it's always interesting to see "new" stuffs.

Don't you think there's a little probability, very little, that they didn't put Calibur 2 or MvC2 because most japanese players are not interested in them? The Tôgeki is opened to foreigners, but it's in japan, and has a vast majority of japanese players.
And for the other part, I still remember the time were Korean whipped Japan badly at KOF 2k1, and less than 3 mounth after that, there was a rematch, and every japanese player studied the matches to have a chance to beat the Koreans this time. So...

But it wasn't a success too for Japan team, right ?
It's very sad, because KOF'02 and SC2 were the games where French have high chance to reach the top 10 ('n even maybe top 3).
PS : Mais l'année dernière, y avait bien SC2 ?

I am looking forward to Vampire Savior footage as well. Seeing Umehara play in VS is too good.
However about the lineup: I am not sure what happened, but my guess is it is all decided by a poll.
Super Turbo out for Vampire Savior
Guilty Gear XX out for Guilty Gear XX: #R
Soul Calibur 2 out for Tekken 4
The 2nd choice is obviously clear, #Reload is the most popular 2d-fighter, with enormous amount of players. Choosing #R above Isuka is that Isuka will be more like a party game, players think that game wont be that serious. Im sure if it was GGXXX or GGXX: #RR or whatever was next, the game would be replaced for it.
The first choice, I think the japanese know ST bit for a long time, so they decided to change it for VS, what doesnt get the attention a lot. Since there are enough ST tournies already, I think the choice was made for that point.
Same goes for Soul Calibur 2, maybe they want to "honor" the tekken players in japan, which are not that "obvious" as in USA/Korea.
However, the fact they choose Samurai Shodown 0 and KoF 2003 above SvC, is very clear, since the game is besides not popular, but several rules have to be made to be sure the game wont be so cheap to play at a tourney level. SS0 has already ranking battles going on in japan, and obviously they like the gameplay better then SvC. No matter if SNK has already 2 games in the lineup or not, leaving it out of the line up is a matter of disrespect for the game.
As for KoF2003, since kof doesnt change a lot if u look @ the gameplay, they thought that the game wont be as broken/gay as SvC would be.
And another thing, I think the games ARE really selected in cooperation with a poll, CvS2 went from singles to teams, the game must be gettin popular, as for the single games, that there will be less participantes.
