Capcom vs SNK 2 - Beta testing to Begin in Tokyo, 6/09 - 6/17

Capcom has announced to begin Beta testing of their upcoming fighter game "Capcom vs SNK 2" in Tokyo. The Beta testing will take place in West Sportsland, Shinjuku. The testing is scheduled to take place from June 9th - 17th.

Short comment:
This is an unannouced beta testing. I found it out accidentally as I passed the arcade on my way to receiving my prescribed medication. If I recover from my illness within good time, I'll probably go try a few games during the testings. I won't kill my health over it though, since so many people have already done enough in reporting quality information.
Oops, did a typo on the date (now fixed)- it's supposed to say June, not July. (Thanks: Dan Luna) -H.Moriarty
