Sega released the second in a series of planned trailers to promote the console release of Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown. The first trailer featured Makoto Osaki and Daichi Katagiri. Coincidentally, the newest trailer features Chibita, who this past weekend won Kakutou Shinseiki VI - Japan's National VF Tournament. While the video was made before Kakutou Shinseiki VI, there are definitely interesting comments made in the video - including the origins of his nickname and what play style he likes/dislikes. Check the video out and when VF5FS console version is released, play against Chibita himself online!
Original story from Sega Blog.

On tonight's episode of VF.TV Live the current PS3 build of VF5FS was demonstrated by Asapon (pictured) and Shinjuku Jacky.The biggest news was confirmation of a Record and Playback function within Training Mode. In addition to this, and in a great step to help new players into the game, was the ability to practice combos within training mode! Unfortunately, not every available menu was explored in the brief, yet entertaining, demo but I have no doubt that we'll be dining out on these morsels for quite some time.
For more information, check out the latest updates to the VF5 Final Showdown Console FAQ in the Console forum.

Good news for the Japan Virtua Fighter scene! After being absent from Super Battle Opera (SBO or Tougeki) in 2011, Virtua Fighter will be again featured in this major Japanese fighting game event. As in past Virtua Fighter tournaments in SBO, VF5FS will be a 3on3 team tournament. For more information on SBO 2012 - the 10th Arcadia Cup, check out their Website (in Japanese). Thanks to 001 for the info.
As with the other major tournaments related to Virtua Fighter, we will try to keep VFDC up-to-date with this event.
