Whatever proceeds we make beyond the cover cost of the xOne we'll put towards free pizza for the night and if there's somehow more, it'll go towards the KI payout. If not it's our risk. Spread that word and get the hype flowing!

Well…. I think the shine has come off the injustice turd. Hopefully with a real fighting game people will show up again. :)
People dropped that game like a ton of bricks, but apparently NEC is going to have a big turnout. It'll be interesting if this is the last big major for it, similar to how MK9's was at NEC last year, except this is a year early...KI might take over.
