New York Comic-Con: Live streaming all weekend

Oct 11, 2011 // Minish Capcom

Can’t make it to New York Comic-Con? I feel for ya – as a Midwesterner, I patiently waited for this kind of awesomeness to grace my area, but to no avail. However, thanks to wonderful modern technology, we’ll have a live stream of the show all weekend, with direct feed, interviews and giveaways the whole time. It all kicks off Thursday evening at 4pm Eastern, and then the full stream begins Friday morning around 10:30am Eastern – that’s 9:30am for my fellow no-coasters.

The stream will feature our current lineup, including Ultimate Marvel, Street Fighter X Tekken, Operation Raccoon City, Asura’s Wrath and Dead Rising 2 Off the Record. I’ll be running the stream the whole time, as Snow is taking a much-deserved break after the non-stop barrage of shows through the summer. It’s my first crack at a Capcom live stream, so bear with me if I accidentally delete the internet.

To sweeten the deal, I’ve got a whole pile of free goodies to give away Friday through Sunday, so keep the stream open! I’m talking codes for full games, people! Oh, and I’ll essentially be tethered to the stream equipment for the entire show, so if anyone could send water or some Clif bars, that would be lovely.

Check back Thursday for the stream kickoff. You can watch it here on Unity, or on our JustinTV page . If you have any questions for the interviewees (Seth, Ono-san and Niitsuma-san), you can ask ’em live via the JustinTV chat!
