Yeah, and the sprites look great. Arc has really surpassed Capcom and SNK in that department. Definitely! I'd always pick Guilty Gear over Street Fighter and King of Fighters. Oh, by the by, I noticed your "Poison" comment just now. Never knew that "it" was a transsexual... o.O Obvious reason why "it" was edited out of the game over here. By the way, Poison isn't the only... how shall I put it... sexually confused game character. Vivian from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door was actually a homosexual in Japan, but NOA edited it so that Vivian was a woman. And this was in a Mario game. A MARIO GAME.Bridget isn't sexually confused; he knows he's male, but he just never understood why his parents--and everyone else he knew--treated him like a girl. So, he's just trying to ditch the drag and prove to the world that he was male.

Yeah, that was due to Nintendo's censorship policies and their feelings about violence against women in video games, back in the day, way before the ESRB came in the scene. There's more about that stuff here along with many more stories, including the one you told me about Vivian in TYD, about LGBT characters in video games:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_characters_in_video_and_computer_games
But anyway, to get back on topic, i'm glad to see 2D fighting games coming on Nintendo consoles again. ^_^

I still think it's unnecessary for game characters to be gay, but whatever.
If Wii is getting an entry in Guilty Gear, I wonder what else we'll see... (Crosses fingers for Street Fighter IV)
