Hey Darkstalkers fans, just 2 quick and important notices to catch your eyes.

Firstly, our great founder :iconseanplenahan: is having a Super Art Sale, so if anybody is interested in having your commissions get beautifully drawn and colored (unlike your own chicken-scratch drawings), head over to his profile and check out his prices. Sean is a very talented artist, and it'll be a great opportunity to see your favorite characters get some special treatment.

Secondly, Capcom has announced it will be re-releasing four of the company's best fighting games to arcades in Japan.

Darkstalkers 3 is one of them.

These fighting games are coming back with some modern enhancements. The most obvious one is that the games will be played on a widescreen display. This will allow high-resolution art and character move lists to be placed on the sides of the screen, while the actual game will be presented in the center at its original resolution. This is to generate further interest in their oldest and most classic games, and garner new support for these classics to the next generation of gamers by evoking the old-school nostalgia of spending precious quarters just to defeat Jedah as your buddies scream from behind to use the low kick instead of the high kick button.

While these machines will only come out in Japan, it doesn't mean it won't be available in other countries. So here's to seeing even more new faces in the Darkstalkers fanbase, it'll be nice for the company.

Looks like Darkstalkers aren't quite dead after all.

Less re-releases of past Darkstalkers games and more making of new Darkstalkers games, it's been years since we've had a newer installement and I want to see that happen in my lifetime, if a cult classic like Killer Instinct can make a comeback then so can Darkstalkers, there's a whole new generation of people out their who seem to think the only characters in the game are Morrigan, Felicia and Hsien-Ko.
