Two fightsticks rigged to each other to play both games at once... what could possibly go wrong?

It's becoming a bit of a tradition that whenever Street Fighter producer Yoshinori Ono visits the Capcom UK office he participates in a challenge orchestrated by Capcom UK community manager Matt Edwards. Last time, we saw Ono and Edwards man one fightstick to try and defeat CPU opponents. Today, it's the inverse.

Edwards soldered two fightsticks together so that one player can control two at once. Doing so allows for playing Street Fighter 5 and Street Fighter 4 simultaneously.

The "Die 2,000 Deaths" challenge requires the player land Akuma's Raging Demon in both games at the same time against the AI. In this video, we see Ono and Edwards do their best to complete the mission, as well as UK players UM|Tyrant and Shoryusengan trying their luck.

Though this might not seem like the hardest task to complete, the participants have to try extra hard due to the high difficulty setting of the CPU. On top of that, they have to build up enough meter on both ends without KO-ing the opponent or getting KO-ed, find a spot to fire off the super/ultra, and actually hit them both.

Needless to say, this is very entertaining to watch. Personally, I think I can do it... but it might be a completely different story actually trying it.

To give you just a taste of what to expect here, check out the GIF below. If you'd like to see if our challengers can pull through, catch the video after the jump.
