Tekken-Net Introduces the Item Mall

Well, I would be lying If I said I wasn't expecting this in some form but it looks like its debut was a little earlier then I expected. (Was thinking it was debuting in TR honestly) As mentioned, the Item Mall is a new store introduced onto the TEKKEN-NET website that allows you to buy certain special items with money (all in USD pricing) for you to use in the arcade version of TTT2. Players still have the option to buy/earn these customizations in the regular store with gold and tickets but this new method of paying for the items looks to hasten the process If you really wanted a specific item. I've added more details of these along with item pricing below.

TTT2 - Jin Off, Tekken Lord Deathmatch, Pekken & Orange House Videos

Here's the latest batch of recorded nicovideo.jp streams that I have up on my Youtube channel. It features footage of the recent "Jin Off" competition in Namco Sugamo arcade which has several notable players like Amigo, AO, Zeugaru and more playing as Jin to see who has the best Jin around. Next is the Tekken Lord deathmatch between Nobi and SBO 2012 champ Lathin a day later in Namco Sugamo. "Pekken" is the new title of Pekosu's weekly online streams on Thursdays, If you want a frame of reference to get the idea when he streams, it usually starts right near the very end of WNFs then onwards. Lastly are the videos straight out of Osaka's Orange House with Matador as host. All of these can be seen below.

New South Korea's Green Arcade Stream Locations

EDIT: I've replaced the Twitch TV embed to a more reliable and better Twitch TV channel. Ignore the awkwardly named "Timeslicer7" stream and check out the new Twitch channel.

Looks like one of the premier places for extraodinary Tekken play has started to branch out to international viewers. Originally, Green Arcade usually streamed on the Daum service which although great, was frustratingly difficult to view outside of Korea due to the nature of the stream and Daum's server locations. Thankfully we have new efforts on Twitch and Youtube that looks to bring the stream to everyone in a much more accessible way. It still seems like they're experimenting with these new streaming services however but still, the effort is very much so appreciated. You can find the new stream locations below.
