Here are the figures as they stand:

Dead on Arrival 5 singles: 23 entrants
VF5:FS singles: 24 entrants
Guilty Gear (insert obnoxiously large acronym here) singles: 9 entrants
Persona 4: Arena singles: 11 entrants
Soul Calibur V singles: 79 entrants
KOF XIII singles: 64 entrants
SSFIV AE singles: 181 entrants
MAHVEL singles: 53 entrants
TTT2 singles: 29 entrants
SFxT singles: 41 entrants

Also SCV is being attended by 10 different countries, making it the second most international game on the roster.
 
Ignoring the fact that its the 2nd biggest game there, it is by a fucking mile no less, the biggest 3D fighting game there. And considering this game was completely bastardised for TTT2, that's impressive even if it is in France.
