nice to know capcom is really wanting to support home. wonder if namco will go for it though

sonarus5933d ago

Street fighter Tekkn tie up would have been great...pity Tekken 6 is end of the yr at the earliest though. Tekken 6 delay to accomodate 360 is BS

TheTwelve5933d ago

As a big fan of both fighting games since back in the day, this can be really exciting. :)

following are from the same Famitsu article that IGN took their story from but kinda gave it a blurry translation:

1. Some item rewards for HOME can only be obtained by really being good at SFIV, other items will require you to clear some other objectives (this is CONFIRMED)

2. There's a possibility of obtaining the Chun-Li costume or other rewards just by playing the game for a long time (Time/point based unlockables).

3. They are thinking about releasing Chun-Li's 2nd Player costume for Home Avatars (the sexier "Mai" type dress), but it might not make it (might be too sexy for Home).

Everything else is pretty much covered by the IGN article.

In the next issue of Famitsu, they will continue to have the interview with Akagawa from SCE and Takeuchi from RE5/Capcom.

Mm... home has a long way to go to be the perfect virtual social environment network, but this is the proof that its going the right way

Heihachi Vs. Akuma...
Now that would kick ass!!!! =D

Jinxstar5933d ago

Cammy vs Lilly. I'd pay to see that fight...

TheTwelve5933d ago

Problem with Tekken characters is that none of them (besides the bosses, and Devil Jin) have ranged attacks.

Dir_en_grey5933d ago

Even comments below are straying off so I just had to say something.

Ono is not saying he wants to make Street Fighter vs Tekken, he's only suggesting that SFIV will have a Home in game launch and that adds more to even the SFIV match finder because in Home you can see other people's avatars, making it more like a real arcade.

Thus if Tekken 6 were to support Home (which they most likely will, since Bandai-Namco already have their own arcade space in the Japanese Home), they can have community exchange tournaments like they have in some real Japanese arcade events. Meaning Tekken players go play SFIV against SF players and see how they do and vice versa, for friendly community exchange.

So again, Ono is not suggesting he wants to make a Namco vs Capcom game, sorry to disappoint.

How Street Fighter IV Saved 2D Fighting Games (Ft. Maximilian Dood)

After Street Fighter II released in in 1991, it caused a fighting game explosion, both in arcades and in home consoles. But, as the decade ended, and arcades were failing, so too were 2D Fighting games. This is how Street Fighter IV completely revitalized the genre.

I'd say Blazblue helped too. Didn't care for Street Fighter 4, but Blazblue was amazing during that time. Sad that the series kind of went downhill after the first 2 or 3 games though.

DarXyde692d ago

BlazBlue was phenomenal. Platinum'd Calamity Trigger because I loved it so much. I remember buying Continuum Shift back in the day at launch for like $40. They did have DLC characters (Valkenhayne, Makoto, and Platinum at the time) and it came out to just a tad more than it would at full price. Didn't mind at all.

Great fighting game.

Snookies12692d ago

Continuum Shift was definitely my favorite. Spent way too many hours on that game, haha... Had the counters for days with Hakumen.

DarXyde692d ago

I really like Makoto, Valkenhayne, and Hazama. Super fun characters

Terry_B692d ago

Valkenhayn ..just sayin'

Terry_B692d ago

BlazBlue was the much better, more technical game..and a real 2D Fighting Game after all. But yes, since it was a big name..the characters were still popular and the game itself was good, SFIV indeed helped a lot. However, I am pretty sure the much better-selling Mortal Kombat 9 would have been done without SFIV as well..and that one truly helped to make the fighting game genre in general more popular again.

Ryuha1234h692d ago

You’re sound dumb. Blazblue was not better than sf4. You’re just saying that because you’re a street fighter hater.

Redgrave692d ago

>calls someone dumb
>does it by saying "you're sound dumb"

Task failed successfully

Terry_B692d ago

A SF Hater eh? Fight me in SF 2,3 4 or 5 and you will regret that stupid comment ;)

gold_drake692d ago (Edited 692d ago )

eyyy max xD

one of the very few streamers i can actually watch without it being cringe and awful ha.

GhostScholar692d ago

The content of IV was severely lacking when it launched. It got better over time.

gamer78042024d ago

they botched SFV so bad, just start over, make a new version with proper single player mode and fully fleshed out with support for all of the consoles this time.

King92024d ago (Edited 2024d ago )

Gamer7804@ they already did kinda it call sf5ae it help sf5 sell like another 2 million copies.

Teflon022023d ago

SFV is actually great now. Bunch of modes, bunch of characters, alot of stages, not sure what else there is to even complain about. Costume MTX? Not a issue imo, I don't get what I don't want anyways

gamer78042023d ago

botched launch, and they launched only on one console and currently after a long time still on one console.

Enigma_20992024d ago

Did you see how Ultra and the Collection sold? We don't need to convince Nintendo of anything. Just put it on the console.PHYSICALLY.

King92024d ago

Enigma_2099@ they probably have to make a new sf game just for the switch they probably will need Nintendo to help fund it just like sony help fund sf5.

PhoenixUp2024d ago

You’re not seeing Street Fighter V come to other platforms besides PC because Sony helped co-fund the game so it’s staying only on PS4 & PC

NapalmSanctuary2023d ago (Edited 2023d ago )

Don't know why anybody would want SF5 on Switch. Especially if they owned a Switch.

rainslacker2024d ago

That doesn't makes sense. Is Nintendo saying that Capcom can't publish the game on the system because it's users don't want the game? if so, that's really stupid of them, because why should they care?

Nintendo isn't saying such things of course.

Capcom shouldn't pass the buck. If they don't want to make more SF games on the Switch, then just say so, and say why.

If they want Nintendo to fund the project, then they are the ones that need to convince Nintendo to give them money.
