SF2 Character Select Remix – Very Badass

 

This isn’t your generic video game .mp3 file being remixed here folks.. What really caught my attention is how this awesome fellow here is using his Madcatz Tournament edition and two custom created boxes full of Sanwa brand Japanese arcade buttons wired up to his midi controller and demonstrates it in action.

I also do not own a headphone amp to bring out the full potential of both headphones. Continue reading
