All right, guys. This is a this is a big deal uh in fight games. Water fighter, the new water fighter, it's coming.
So, Sega, the the creator of this game, the Japanese company, Japanese video game company, Sega, just released this clip a few days ago about this game. Uh the game play about this game. So is it is the looks um fantastic on the graphic.
Uh we will see and uh I want to tell you the virtual fighter is really um a different uh game. Uh it's really different game and uh it's very special game actually very special 3D game. It is the first 3D game in the history.
So this is why this is a big deal. Many people don't know this. You know if you many people don't don't play fighting games.
If you if you play fighting games, you know this one is uh and you are in my age or maybe older than me, you know this, you know this is a memory. you know, a lot of a lot of people's memory, the the childhood memory. So, let's see the clip first and uh I like the music.
If this music is in game, if this is a ingame music, I love this music, you know. But Vertter Fighter crossroad. What the hell is this?
What the hell is the the name Vert Fighter crossroad? Okay. The the last the last Vert Fighter is uh is called five.
I guess if I'm correct is five. So they should uh I I think they should put like water fighter 6 to me. Water fighter crossroads to me sounds like a spin off game.
You know what I mean? It it sounds like a spin-off game. Whatever.
for games. more thanche. Okay, that's all.
You know what is the problem? You know what is the problem? Okay.
First the name as I said earlier water fighter crossro it sounds like a spin off to me. Second you know what you you know why I I don't play water fighter on my channel. I play literally ever fighting games.
I do the the the combo stuff. You check my ever game play and my POV. If you are not membership, okay, you check regular v regular game play.
I do combos. I do a lot of combo stuff. If this game is playable, it's good.
If this fighting game is good, I will know. You know, I will know. So why?
Because if I if I play, I know if the fighting system is for the player. It's for the player. If you want to attract the the player, I call customers.
In business, we call customers. If you open a restaurant, if you open a restaurant, you want the customer return, come back to eat your food, you have to make the food taste good. You have to make the food taste good.
You all you may or maybe if the food tastes not good, I mean not if not terrible, just average, just average taste. You make the environment, the restaurant environment by them or feel unique. Okay, here let's talk about virtual fighters.
Water fighters created by the guy. Sega is a Japanese legendary Japanese company. I know very well probably a lot of American Americans if you are not gamers many Americans don't know this game don't know this company even the other gamers uh probably are not familiar with uh Sega especially young one but to me for my generation okay I'm I'm 41 my generation you So it's Sega is a name everyone knows for my generation.
It's not only the the the video game. It's not only the video game. It's about IP IP intellectual properties.
Sega owns a lot of IPS. So when I was a child back in 1990s in China in China I I immigrant to America now but but in China in my childhood cigar was cigar used to I believe is still dominate the arcade business arcade business in China. I believe it's still dominant.
You go check you you go check out the the portfolio of this company. They got everything is transparent today. You check out, you ask your AI, you will know this company does better in term of business, does better in China than the United States of America.
By the way, when you mention Siga, you you you when you mention Siga, okay, the first thing, the iconic character is Sonic the Hedgehog. The Sonic the Hedgehog, the most famous one, the most famous one. And you will know uh a lot of others but definitely is the most famous one.
They have a Hollywood movie. They have a Hollywood movie. So the problem is Stigga shift their business strategy from video game from video game.
Listen to me carefully. from video game to a IP licensing business. You check out their company's background.
You check out their Sega portfolio. This Japanese company heavily relay on Chinese market. I'm not saying it's good or bad.
I'm not saying it's good or bad. I'm not judge here. You know why?
China is the largest mobile game industry today. Mobile games. Mobile game is never popular in America.
Never. Never popular in America. In fact, a lot of people don't play mobile game in America.
But it's different story in China. You know why? Because the regulations there.
because the regulations in China on gaming industry. Back to my story. When I was a child, I went to arcade directly after I get out of elementary school.
That is my childhood. The arcade the arcade there in China at that time was dominated by the guy ever game ever games. So the home console business was a Nintendo but the problem is the Chinese regulations used to ban all the home consoles.
The hardware, the hardware, Nintendo, PlayStation, only arcade machine are only arcade machine. They can sell the arcadia machine there. So this is why they got dominate there dominating in Chinese market.
Home console was banned until 200 and in the middle of 2010. It's recent years. recent years they lift they lift the regulation they let you in but you still a lot of video games you cannot play in China a lot of the video games like Mortal Kombat is too bad it's too bad cannot pass the regulation in China also in Japan I I believe Mortal Kombat is also uh banned in Japan if if I'm not wrong if I'm not So Arcadia machine is the main business and IP the mobile com the mobile game company mobile game company in China the Chinese mobile game company in China borrow they they they pay they pay for the license fee once they got to use their character or maybe make some copy make some knock off character You see some of character.
You see some Chinese cheap Chinese mobile games characters. They looks like Japanese anime animation characters. They borrow they they pay for the license.
So So Japan companies like cigar like like they they said okay you can sell those knockoff stuff. At least you pay me somehow. pay me some lessening fees.
I will close my eyes. I I will close my eyes. And you use those actor actors.
You create those fake actor those those co of you know those character. This is this is the way a lot of Japanese companies doing business not only in gaming industry but also car business Japanese cars >> there why why sorry I always say okay it sounds like three fighters character okay sa Okay. They why they they their performance it's much weaker in America.
You know the only uh the only universal recognization character from Sega is Sonic the Hedgehog. Okay. But for their video game they long time they not produce any they have not produced any like the sequel games like virtual fighter.
I'm glad Virtual Fighter graphic looks fantastic. I hope they keep the graphic when the game really came out. I I hope this not only for showcase, not only for demonstration because a lot of games, you know, they looks really fantastic in the demo game play, but when they came out actually came out after you paid play pay the game and you play, you know, it's you you disappoint the graphic, you know, the graphic is like uh different, totally different.
So this is the this is the problem you know from the graphic from the characters I cannot judge those those new games I cannot until I play them until I play them. No, and Virtual Fighter, they need to really develop their combo system because I played the old the older the older Virtual Fighter games and I feel the combo system they really needed to to be improved. Um, this one Tyken is a Tyken does better much better than Vort Fighter.
That is why traditional 3D g fighting game was dominated by Tekken. The big three Tekken died or alive and virtual fighters. The big three now actually is only one king that is taken.
I'm good. They are bring back virtual fighter. So they bring back the competitions.
I I like the competition. So they can improve their their their game for f further for the customers. For the customers of the buyers, the players who pay $70 to buy a game.
$70 is not a small money for a lot of people, the teenager people, teen students, even the adult people. $70. It's uh it's a a big part of the the the uh the the man in the you know when I was when I was child by the way Sega fell in hard war the home console business they fell they made the they made Dramcast the the very good uh video game console So by in terms of uh hardware it was strong stronger than PlayStation better graphic card at that time 10 but they failed they fell hardly.
By the way, I my parents bought bought me the Dramcast. They bought me Dramcast when I was child. I I I like my parents.
And uh the Dramcast the the console. I I still keep it in my parents house back in China. Never play.
Never play. So, Sega does not make money from making um playable or not making uh traditional video games, but they making a lot of a lot of money by selling their uh or rent out their lightning, the IP And they opened a theme park. Sega open just opened uh last year 2025.
Sega open a yind door theme park in Shanghai, China. In Shanghai, China. China is a 1.
4 billion people. Even most people, even the economy is going down. Even the people don't have the don't have uh money to buy the expensive console there still like at least one 100 million people they have the they have demand you know 100 million people is the it's more than the Japanese population sa doesn't need uh too big market to to fade them to feed them you know so this is a very interesting scene water fighter back but I don't know if they will be back to me is a you know is a is a childhood memory.
This guy is a legendary name. A lot of uh by the way I believe this the philosophy of this company the philosophy of Siga they make u some stuff they they they don't listen to others okay they go down to the path until they see the dead end this is the to me I feel this is the philosophy of this All right. I don't know if you agree or disagree, but my experience my experience this is my experience.
How many how many people in your country how many Americans they the Arcades games is based on Sega? I don't think so. I don't think so.
Back in 1990s, Siga dominate Chinese market. I don't think Sika dominate American market back in 1999 because American has so many comp competitions here, so many competitors here. Nintendo's capac unfortunately Nintendo's and Sony was a kind of a uh kicked out during the 1990s because the home console ban made a vacuum tank for Sega but Sega you know uh I I hope they will I I I hope this game virtual fighter will be success.
I I I really I I really wish because fighting games um it's dominant now. It's um there's no literally there are few competitions here. The Street Fighter Tyken I'm running the fighting game channel.
I know I know I know the data streamer taken it's no doubt it's they were they they are dominating the market I I would like to see some new games fighter is no new games but you know you better keep up with the old name water fighter 6 you know you should use a water fighter fix instead of the cross road. What is cross road? You know what is cross road?
You should not abound your heritage. You should not abound heritage. Well, it it you know that remind me like a maybe you know let's talk about movie.
Okay. Batman everybody know Batman also they call Batman dark night. So the movie they use dark kn as the name and Batman is different but they are same thing.
The culture know that. The culture know that. So ver that is differences.
They didn't change the name. That's good. That's good.
But cross road is really sounds like a spin off. So if eight not six, if eight is only a spin off, should you sell this game cheaper? Should you sell this g game cheaper?
Usually spin off game cost like4 to $50. here. Yeah.
American. Okay. All right.
That's all.
