Smashbro29: Why is Edition Select so detached? I mean at the very least make the mode playable online.



Combofiend: Hey all, the initial reason that this mode wasn't made online available was that we wanted the main emphasis to be placed on the Ultra versions of the characters. By introducing the older unbalanced characters (Vanilla Akuma/Sagat, Super Abel/Honda, AE Yun/Yang) we'd only undermine the work that's been put in over the last year to give fans the most balanced SFIV yet. This mode is just supposed to be a fun aside that you can play your friends with as you try to figure which character is the strongest (hence local only).



That's not to say we haven't noticed the requests to have this go online. Although there are no plans of it now, if anything comes to fruition, I'll keep you all updated.
