Street Fighter IV for iPhone Revealed

IGN: Street Fighter IV… on the iPhone? Capcom is going for it this March, bringing the acclaimed fighter to Apple's handhelds. But this is no quickie, banged-out port. Capcom has taken months to come up with suitable controls for a platform with no physical buttons, employing a virtual pad and move buttons to recreate the arcade stick right on the touchscreen. After all, without great controls, what's the point?

Hell yeah! 63 games and counting (and none of them are any stupid "lite" versions) on my iPod Touch 3rd gen! Bring on the games! GTA Chinatown Wars is already amazing enough...I bet this will top it.

dude...you can't honestly be excited about this. I own an iPhone and there is NO damn way to play a street fighter game on this thing (iPod too). Unless theres some "do all button", just how the hell is this supposed to work?

[Baka-akaB]

sadly out of those 63 games , 45 are probably derivative crap like this street fighter will be .

I dont see how this could be anything else but pretty looking shovelware . (ps and that's coming for an iphone owner) .

i'm sure it will sell , but it will still be crap .

So how many Street Fighter games have all of you played on the iPhone / iPod Touch?

You sure sound like you know exactly how it will play.

wow,nice one

Capcom doesnt release it on the Wii, but instead they "port" it to the iPhone. After playing TsVSCapsom I really cant understand their decision not to release it. I already have it for the PS3 but this is just silly.

[iforgotmylogin]

it is called Moonehh.

reason #1 for almost every choice thats made in the gaming world today-_-.

Iphone has a better success rate of ppl buying crap on it than the wii.

[maniacmayhem]

release a 6 button, heavy use of a d-pad type game on a touch screen only device?

Hmmmm, what could go wrong??

[dirthurts]

Fighting game with no real buttons. I've tried this stuff on the 360 d-pad, and I know how bad that is. Now they want me to try it with a touch screen? Noh thanky.
Graphics are slick though.

[DailyAddict]

the dPad games absolutely suck major ass on the iPhone as it is and you expect a fast-paced game like Street Fighter to play well? THis is going to be horrible and as much as I'd like to see SF game on iPhone the touchscreen dpad is garbage and this will continue the trend.

[GFahim]

they cant even release it for a handheld that has 100 MILLION PLUS userbase i.e. the DS? what the fuk man

[Sitdown]

I wonder where all the people are that would run into the iphone posts stating that the iphone is not a serious competitor in the gaming arena because there are no hard buttons. I am not saying this validates it....but just wondering.

[menoyou]

this is just plain gay

[Neo604]

thus psp better.

[pain777pas]

PSP too please!

[riksweeney]

Oh yay! Now another version I can fail to pull Ultras off on.
