One of the greatest MVC2 technicians and scientists of all time is a reclusive Japanese player known as ” Joo .”  He has been stunning the MVC2-loving world for years with absolutely amazing combos that not only change the way the game is played by the pros, they also demonstrate the amazing flexibilty of the engine behind all the on-screen action.

Although he made a rare appearance at EVO 2009, Joo has gone strangely quiet on the video release front over the last few years.  Could one of the game’s all-time greatest fans have lost interest? 

Never!  In fact, Joo has been in his darkest laboratory, cooking up his ultimate masterpiece.  How long has he been working on this?  For the last *5* years.  

I’m told by his friend and US counterpart Magnetro (who has been in our offices this week doing some additional gameplay tests for MVC2) that the long wait is soon over, and the ultimate MVC2 video will actually be finished next month. 

In the meantime, enjoy the trailer above (it’s 4 minutes long and still just a trailer!), and be sure to check out a few of Magnetro’s annotations about just WTF is happening here .
