Okay, let’s get the obvious reason out of the way, Capcom Cup 2021 and the Street Fighter League World Championships 2021 LITERALLY can’t happen! It’s 2022 for Dio’s sake!

On a simultaneously more AND less obvious note, Capcom, the company behind hit franchises Street Fighter and Resident Evil, have decided to cancel the Capcom Cup gaming tournament due to rising COVID-19 cases and concerns around omicron. This marks the second time Capcom has cancelled in-person events for this reason.

Rather than the initially planned February ’22 date, the event will instead take place online.

On a vaguely related note… Nintendo. Honey. Baby. My adorable f*ck-master of galactic destruction. Maybe take a couple notes from Capcom on this and DON’T give third-party tournament organizers a hard time for doing something that LITERALLY promotes your games! For more on that, check this article on the topic and if you’re a slightly-insane lefty with a penchant for deep-voiced political commentators, maybe also MoistCritical’s video on the topic here.

Now, in case Nintendo happen to coincidentally release a video to their YouTube channel showing they’ve been contributing to charity causes for starving folks in Africa or the like, here’s a significantly less Nintendo-critical article. BOOM. Both-sides successfully covered.

Due to the rising cases of COVID-19 and after careful consideration, Capcom once again finds itself in the difficult position of having to cancel #CAPCOMCUP. We will be producing an online season final similar to last year. #CPT2021 #SFL2021 details following: pic.twitter.com/BwW8YqN9F4

It’s been quite some time since I’ve written original Product Poems, so strap down and sit on, it’s story time!

The post Capcom Cup ’21 and SFL Cancelled! Here’s Why first appeared on Get2Gaming.

Hello everyone. I’ve been working at Go2Games for around 3 months. As today’s a bit slow news-wise, thought I’d take a page out of Aslan’s book and write a little on my time with the company.

How does my work… Work? I’m so glad I asked! Barring extenuating circumstances, most of my Go2Games work varies between two types of tasks. One is the comedy news blogs where I showcase my terminal addiction to “Bobbert Kotique”, anti-corporate mockery and highly suggestive poems about Lottie from Animal Crossing! The other kind of task is ‘descrips’, wherein I essentially write slightly re-worded descriptions and information about a list of products on a shared document that (I’m assuming) will be coming to the Go2Games store. For some ungodly reason, I find the descrips harder to burn through, but have been improving with them.

Why the YouTube Fetish? I have a tendency to link to and source YouTubers in alot of my blogs because inserting links from different places helps improve analytics… Somehow. Besides that, I also understand some people can be skeptical of “oh, you heard someone say that in an internet video? That doesn’t sound dodgy in the slightest”. That’s fair enough in a lot of cases, but most of the content creators I reference or enjoy also heavily cite their sources for different claims, which can SOMETIMES be a good way of separating the Weetabix from the chaff grenades. I say sometimes because blokes like Steven Chowder or Carlgon of Schmitt are also big creators who make a song and dance about having citations, but those guys have gotten their intellectual spanking from every lefty YouTuber and their grandma, so won’t dwell on them too much here. Speaking of YouTube, have a look at my channel Top-Not Analysis.

Product Poems? Really? Really, really. This blog branch of Go2Games has to make money somehow and part of that is through linking products on the Go2Games store into blogs. Some things are easier to integrate than others, so I came up with Product Poems as a fun way to circumvent that by tacking them on at the end.

In summary: Working at Go2Games has been a very fruitful and enjoyable experience. My colleagues and higher-ups have been very friendly, I’m glad to say I’ve had the opportunity to work with them.

My Top Product Poems: My only rule is I’m excluding the Lottie ones for this blog, otherwise things would get really samey really fast! If you want to hunt for them, go to the search bar, type ‘Lottie’ in the blog section and thank me later. Or click here if you want to buy your own Lottie… For the meme!

Doom Eternal. Cute inferno. Shooty-bang-bang on hell spawn, yo.

No straight roads? That’s what he said! I’ll get it! “Not at 3am hun”.

There was once a young woman named Barbie, one day she got bit by a zombie! But she didn’t turn, for soon she would learn, she had no brains- “oh, harder Harvey”!

There is no Street Fighter Five in Ba Sing Se. Shirt? What shirt? God, no!

Fruit In Animal Crossing: New Horizons is Very Important

Animal Crossing: New Horizons fruit is important. Not just for aesthetic reasons or variety, but for crafting and giving gifts to villagers to get the rare villager photo.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons has a variety of fruits available, not as many as Animal Crossing New Leaf, unfortunately, but it’s nice to know Nintendo has added the same amount to resemble the older games, like Animal Crossing, Animal Crossing: Wild World and Animal Crossing: City Folk.

How to get All the Animal Crossing: New Horizons Fruits

The player can obtain all the fruits by either going to another island with Nook Mile Tickets, visiting a friend’s island with other fruit, waiting for a villager to send one in the post or finding one in the Resident Services recycling box. Nook Mile Tickets can be obtained from the Nook Stop in resident services.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons Fruit DIYs

With fruits, you can easily craft many of the fruit DIYs such as a peach chair, a peach surprise box, pear wardrobe, apple dress or cherry speakers! Having a fruit-themed room or island can look very eventful. These items can not be bought in Nook’s Cranny and are exclusive to craft from the DIY.

Villager Friendship Points

Another reason to have all the Animal Crossing: New Horizon fruits are because collecting exactly 3 foreign fruits (one different from your local island fruit) and giving it wrapped to a villager will give you maximum friendship points from a gift for that day.

With a piece of clothing or furniture item, it’s not 100% guaranteed the player will get the maximum friendship points for that villager, this even goes for crafted items. It’s a lot less risky to give the villager a stack of foreign fruit, as this means you’ll be guaranteed success each time.

Once you’ve reached enough friendship points, you’ll be able to acquire a friendship photo from your favourite villager. These are extremely rare and do take a while to get, but once you get one, it’ll be a framed picture of them with a few unique words of wisdom on the back.

Island Aesthetic & Cooking

Lastly, having a nice variety of fruit allows players to cook more recipes, since the Animal Crossing New Horizons 2.0 Update, players have been able to unleash their creativity by cooking dishes and placing them around the island.  Not to mention, these dishes look amazing around the island!

Fun Fact: If you eat the fruit, your villager will gain a certain amount of strength to dig up whole trees or break rocks! Many have used fruit trees to make a mini-grove and some players even collect a certain amount of fruit for their travelling to help them collect materials. Fruit is very useful.

Real-Life Animal Crossing: New Horizons Cherry Speakers Made By Fan

Yes, They’re real!

Animal Crossing: New Horizons has an amazing amount of new furniture from the Animal Crossing: New Horizons 2.0. update, however, one fan, in particular, is still showing appreciation for one of the original items. The Cherry Speakers.

As much as we miss the iconic watermelon furniture, the cherry fruit is one of the most popular amongst the Animal Crossing Fandom, so it’s only right they have cherry-themed items.

Reddit User ‘Oomoo_Amazing’ spent their time through blood, sweat and tears to recreate the cherry speakers, not only are these speakers aesthetically pleasing, but they sound good as well.

They are fully functional and as said by the creator ”Yes!! It plays the full animal crossing soundtrack from New Horizons! And thank you!!” That’s lead us to believe that the Animal Crossing: New Horizons soundtracks will be pre-set, of course, they could add other Animal Crossing soundtracks, purely for nostalgic reasons, but the cherry speaker is exclusive to New Horizons.

Check out my cherry speakers!! Nearly finished! from AnimalCrossing

In Animal Crossing New Horizons, a typical in-game cherry speaker requires a DIY recipe to obtain it or a player can trade with another player to get it. However, after obtaining the DIY, the player needs 10 Cherries and two iron nuggets to craft it.

Why you need ALL the fruits in Animal Crossing New Horizons

It will be interesting to see the final result, the Reddit user has expressed that they will post their results once done! It’ll be a great device to sell, as many users have expressed their interest in purchasing the furniture and the creator has shown interest in selling the 3D printing files.

The creator mentioned they were worried about whether they can sell or not, that they may not be allowed. However, they might consider the fact many online sellers create merchandise that’s Animal Crossing themed. Hopefully, they make it available to the public.

To close off, the creator asked their audience if they have any suggestions on what to make next. “Any suggestions on my next project? I’ll be too bored after this is done! My husband is starting to get irritated with me filling up the house!”
