My original pre-order has been delivered...

lol, seriously? Did you get charged or what?

Nah, I got my money back a couple of weeks after it came out. Fuck knows what happened to it lol.

So you got a free copy then?

• Everything from Super Street Fighter 4 will be ported over to the 3DS, nothing will be removed.

• There may be two control options available, one similar to how Street Fighter 2 was on the Super NES, and another that uses the touch pad interface.

• There will be a slider so you can adjust the level of 3D in the game. At the max setting you can distinguish the background and characters very clearly.

• Ono said the team is also hoping to design the game so that when the 3D slider is off, it will look just like the 2D game.

...Wow.

thats Kalyx's hero

cool.

For the love of God:

Karin
Yun
Alex
Rolento
R. Mika

And being that Rival Schools is in the Street Fighter universe:

Batsu
Hinata
Daigo
Kyosuke

Can't have Yun without Yang. And don't the Rival Schools guys have like 34576547825 moves per character? Would that fit in well?

Capcom Fighting Evolution makes mockery of this package deal you think exists with the brothers, and as far as I see Yun is way more popular.

And have you seen Ibuki/Dudley/Makoto/Chun Li/Akuma/Gouken/Seth's move list?

I prefer Yang. Plus, from a story standpoint it'd be weird that 1 is in and the other isn't.

And I never played Rival Schools (I was "lucky" enough to have an N64, which had exactly 3 good fighting games for it. None of them were Capcom games). That's kinda why I asked. Heard they had lots of moves.

Aslo, never played Fighting Evolution. Heard nothing but bad things about it, plus it's rare in Canada.

Both have been done, jus sayin.

They're going to be available on the consoles. They actually said months ago that any additions to the arcade version would definitely be added to the console versions. Not sure why they have suddenly decided to not comment.

Are those the one you hope for or are those another "leaked list"? I want R. Mika most of all. I also want Rolento and Sodom as I enjoyed them as well. Hugo because I never played SFIII and he looks like another big guy for me to use. I want Q as well because he sounds like an interesting character, gameplay and story wise.

I really hope we don't get Charlie (one Guile is enough.) or something lame like Evil Ryu. Akuma is, more or less, an Evil Ryu.

Hopefuls. I've had my fill of leaked lists lately.

Awesome.

WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF?

what?

Yun is a shredder, Yang is a blader. Follow me?

CANT YOU READ?!?!?!?!

Read on Gamefaqs a few days ago that the skateboard and blades thing was a fake. Along with this badly done "screenshot":

Gotta love the 3s art asset as his lifebar portrait.

Anyone down to play?

I havn't played in months due to finally breaking open mass effect 2 and dragon age, but okay. Be on in a little bit.

I might get my ass kicked.

Hell. I could be good for a couple of matches.

Whooooooo

BTW, I am also out of practice. I've only played a couple of times since the tourney.

I'm in

Blitz monstered that EB for a good long while. If he didn't have the 10peat, he's got it now.

You guys r no fun :n:

We had like 246y7865786435786 matches. You were fucking late.

I think you beating me with Blanka would've been 10.

Sorry. :'(

I just lose it against charge characters all the time. The whole holding back or down for most moves usually leads to a turtle-y style that just frustrates me.

You were whomping me pretty good those first 2 rounds. I just finally got my rhythm down, plus I started using a few new moves. You noticed the EX rainbow attack thingy yeah? Didn't know it had an EX version, because KKK makes him do the hop thingy, but it's incredibly useful.

Yeah the homing ball. I was just always thinking it'd stop short and didn't block.

It does if you're trying to go corner to corner, but the range is crazy good.

Meh, Yun & Yang seem boring me. I've never played as them but they look so boring as characters. I read a few people say that Rufus plays similair to either Yun or Yang or both combined. I forget which.

I wonder how long the temporary flood of Yun & Yang (most likely in black) will last on Live when they are released before everyone goes back to Ryu/Ken/Guile.

Hoping for Alex and Sodom, personally.

R. Mika, Rolento, Sodom and Q would be great to me. R.Mika and Rolento are apparantly sure things.

People have used the Solar Eclipse stage as evidence Elena will probably be added. I'm using the same logic with Rolento and the Metro City construction site stage.
R. Mika is going to be in because Ono loves her. Can't see my other two hopefuls getting in but I hope they do.

Sean, you cunts.

Ken, Ryu, Dan, Gouken, Akuma, Sagat, Sakura, Seth(?)

Enough is enough.

I wouldn't call Sakura, Gouken, Sagat, or Seth a shoto.

SF IV on the iPhone is awesome. Actually a game that doesn't look fucking cheap. Love it right now.

Sakura and Gouken absolutly are

Based on what? The names of their moves? Motions?

They play nothing like common shotos.

No fucking idea what a shoto was, but I read this. Could resolve somethings?

http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/94370...er-iv/45656387

No.

Sakura and Gouken are not shotos.

Technically speaking, Ryu, Ken, Dan, and Akuma are the only real shotos. Although they play differently, they have fairly similar bases.

For instance I play Ken, but I could pick up Ryu, Dan, or Akuma based purely on their framework. Players of those characters thinking they could just hop on Sakura or Gouken 'because they look like shotos' have another thing coming.

Sakura may have fucked up properties, but she is totally a shoto. Dragon punch: check. Fireball: check. Hurricane kick: check. 100% shoto.

Gouken is just a bizarro world shoto. Dragon punch goes sideways, hurricane kick goes up and fireball has 3 directions.

Sagat is Shoto-like.

I'm not talking about super technical details involving hitboxes and frames and shit, just general special movesets.

I really wanna see other character types make it in. If Charlie or Remy make it in, I will strangle someone.

Is there a set definition for "shoto"? I've heard the term around when I visit places like Gamefaqs.
I thought it applied to characters based on the way Ken/Ryu play. They have a projectile performed by down-to-forward-punch. They have a rising upper cut preformed by forward-to-down-to-forward-punch and a horizontal traveling kick performed by down-to-back-kick.
If I was going by that, that would mean Ken, Ryu, Dan, Sakura and Sagat would be classified as "shotos".
Gouken is like an inverted "shoto". The inputs are the same but his upper cut is horizontal and his kick is vertical which is the opposite to how the others do it. That means 5 or 6 is you still count Gouken are "shoto".

The game has:
6 "shotos"
8 charging
3 grapplers
17 miscellaneous

Clearly, we need more grapple characters to even out the selection a bit more. Hugo is pretty likely and so is R.Mika so that should bring the grapple count up to a decent number. I just don't want any more "shots" personally and Charge characters are no fun for me to play as personally. I want grapplers or misc.

Speaking of Hugo, Ono is mentioning Poison a fair bit. He apparantly did the same with Yun & Yang before they were made to obviously be the first two.
Here (Eventhubs).

I was thinking, maybe DLC will be packs of 2.
Yun & Yang
Hugo & Poison
R. Mika & Rolento (Alpha themed DLC)

I should probably stop proof reading my posts so much...and make them shorter.

Her dragon punch is a rush move, not anti-air. Her senpuu has an arc and its usage is not like the Hurricane Kick. Her fireball is also more akin to wake-up checks than zoning like typical shotos.

She is not a shoto.

Fuck that, write essays.

Sigh.

I wouldn't call any of my post "super technical".

And it's stuff like what I posted that makes a shoto a shoto, not merely having a fireball or a hurricane kick. For instance; Batsu of Rival Schools has a dive kick, a wheel kick, a grounded uppercut special, and a fireball. But he is in fact a shoto, though his moveset doesn't seem like it.

If you can fireball trap, you are a god damned shito!!!!!1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111!!!1!2!!!!oneoneone

Not even fixing the typo.

I can't fireball trap shit with Sakura. Wish I could.

Nigga, help me out here. Like for real.

Part of Yun on show in this teaser image by Ono.

Ono is still hinting at Poison more and more.

I checked his Twitter a few hours ago with even more hints at her.

I managed to get the "Long time no see" achievement today where you have to fight Gouken on Hardest in Arcade. Considering he's supposed to be harder to get to, his fight is much easier than the Akuma fight but that's probably because he doesn't have a warp to spam.

I beat Arcade on hardest with all character to get the legendery titles but now all I have left to do is stuff involving trials, colours, titles, alt rivalries and the C-grade achievements.

I'm having trouble with the trials. One of Zangiefs trials calls for 3 or so light kicks but, no matter what I do, they don't combo. After one kick, the rest all miss. Colours, titles, alt rivalries shouldn't be too bad but the C-grade achievement could be a bit much for me.

Input the next kicks at a delay of the previous animation. It's hard catching the frame.

Timing for combos in this game is stupid ridiculous.

Yeah, it's kinda exclusionary that way. The one major thing that pisses me off about an otherwise near perfect game.

"Make a fighter for beginners" they said...

What, Mortal Kombat?

But really, linking is gay. 1 frame out of fucking 60?

SF4 was billed as a game that's assessable to lightweights and people coming back to fighting games. Ironically Mortal Kombat 9 will probably do a better job at this.

Nah, everyone I've introduced SF4 to sucks balls at it. Like worse than me when I was fucking 10.

So we agree.

Yeah, it sucks playing against people you destroy, almost as much as getting destroyed yourself. Although I will admit, it is endlessly hilarious, hitting an ultra on someone who doesn't know they exist. Especially when other people are watching who also don't know.

I did this once. Was a bunch of people playing SF4 for the first time and this chick is up and I'm letting her "win" (it looked competitive to all the noobs watching) and then take the lead. So she's got like 40% health and I've got a sliver left and I'm like "k, this match is clearly over" and she's like "eat it, bitch" and Ken is like "Shinryuken" and I win and everyone is like "holy shit" and then 2 of them bought SSF4.

What's with the blurring?

Builds interest or whatever.

wtf I want game of death fei long.

Forest Law's got that on lock in Tekken 3.

Fei Long IS Forest Law

DUN DUN DUNNNNNN oh shit son

Yeah, gonna be fucked if they're both in those crossover games.

They play differently enough. Should be some good gags thrown in.

That's what I mean. Like the Tekken 5 style miniscenes before and after certain fights.

I wonder if they're gonna bother with a story.

They didn't with SSFIV, so....

Give us a manga or something.
