Here's an interesting new fighter on Kickstarter for anyone who enjoyed SNKs games on the old Neo Geo Pocket and Neo Geo Pocket Color.

Aside from the retro-handheld artstyle, the team also wants to go for a game that focuses more on strategy and execution.
What's interesting is how meter seems to be very important (I'm getting a definite 3S vibe here) and how each character has different meter options. For example, one character has a standard "capcom style" meter, while another has one that builds through keeping your opponent in blockstun while yet another has one specifically for ArcSys style bursts.
The other interesting thing is that they've implemented an actual "frame data bar." In other words, there's an actual bar under the lifebar that shows the startup, active and recovery frames of a move as well as the blockstun and hitstun for the defending player.
Their Kickstarter goal is $16,000 with an additional $2000 giving us GGPO netcode as a stretch goal.
