Gonna be honest here, I'm feeling a bit railroaded.

Makes sense as it's the launch date for Switch 2. And with the Year 1 & 2 edition they have coming.

IIRC, there was an option in the Gamecube version of CvS 2 EO to play 1v1. At the time I only knew how to play Chun Li, so I kept to 1v1. It is so satisfying, years later, to actually be able to use multiple characters and play 3v3 as the game intended, one of the characters being an SNK character no less (Mai)!

I do kinda wish they'd have gone with Alpha 3 Max instead of Upper, but I can't deny that Upper>>>>>>vanilla Alpha 3 that we got with the anniversary collection. And it lets you continue if you get beaten by Bison? This is madness... and I'm so here for it!

I took some time away yesterday from all my Switch 2 excitement to try out Elena. I doubt she'll be my main any time soon but her controlls do feel better than they have before. I could see myself using her for some arcade play throughs.

Excited about Viper and Sagat. Couldn't care less about Alex or Ingrid. Where the hell is Sakura!?!?!?

OMG Kenny I love you for doing that. :ROFLMAO:
I haven't played SF since the old games, but I love Viper's design so much, I got an action figure of her. I call her Pompabraid.

So when I got the year 2 pass, I got the ultimate pass with additional costumes for Bison, Terry, Mai and Elena on the PS5.

When I got the Street Fighter 6 Years 1-2 Fighters Edition for the Switch 2, one thing I didn't notice at first but now I'm seeing, it doesn't come with the extra costumes.

So, like, don't get me wrong. The Switch 2 version is totally awesome and I'm not going to say anything against it. And they do have the costumes buyable. But seeing as how I've already got them bought and paid for on the PS5 version, I'll probably make PS5 my primary version with the Switch 2 being the version I take with me for portable play.

But again, can't stress this enough, the Switch 2 is a very good port. It's just as good as PS5 in my opinion. The only thing is that I already have all the DLC bought and paid for on PS5 as well as World Tour mode finished.

It may be too early to rate. [...] Also, with a hit and miss starting roster, I think what I ultimately rate it will depend a lot on DLC characters. Right now I can only give it a tentative rating.

A

I took some time away yesterday from all my Switch 2 excitement to try out Elena. I doubt she'll be my main any time soon but her controlls do feel better than they have before. I could see myself using her for some arcade play throughs.

Okay, well, I'm quickly falling in love with playing Elena. It's very weird because, like, I never cared to use Balrog because all he could do was punch. In the same way, as much as I love Elena as a character, I never used her because all she could do was kick.

But I used her just once to finish her story bit in Arcade mode and, wow! I really enjoyed playing her. Like, I don't think I'll be good enough with her to take her online any time soon. But against the computer, I have absolutely fallen in love with Elena. Street Fighter 6 has made me an Elena player.

I still need to see Sakura before my final final grade. But for my preliminary final grade...

If they include Sakura in any of the remaining rounds of DLC...
S

If they don't have Sakura in any of the remaining rounds of DLC
A+

No Sakura, no S.

But dang, I'm loving Elena right now.
