« Famitsu Interview With Daigo Umehara: Still Plays 6 Hours a Day, 363 Days a Year »


The Beast Note blog translated and posted up some cliff notes of a recent interview in Famitsu featuring Daigo Umehara. While most of the interview is regarding his book -- which has sold 28k copies to date -- they also ask him a few question regarding the future of his gaming career. He talks about some of his most nervous moments at tournaments and the fact that he plays pretty much every day at the arcade except for two days during the New Year holidays.
He also mentions that his main focus this year is SSF4: AE Ver. 2012 and Gunslinger Stratos. He said he was testing the waters with Yun and Akuma but decided that he will be using Ryu come EVO2012.
There are a lot of interesting notes so be sure to read up on the entire thing by clicking here.
