If you haven't had your fill of Super Street Fighter 4 stages today, the Japanese blog was updated with a ton of new images showing various details of the new backgrounds.Hello everyone!
The cold of winter is finally here, and Ono... Ono... was done in by a virus! It doesn't seem to be the flu though, so that's good at least. But, will he be OK in time for today's Midnight Live? [A talkshow hosted by Famitsuu and Xbox Live -Jig's note] Hang in there, Ono!
Last week finally saw the revival of the Q&A section here on the blog, and I want to thank everyone for leaving so many comments!! No matter how many times I read them, they always lift my spirits! Really, there's so many kind comments... I might even cry a little!
OK, that's enough! I'm too busy for this!
Everyone, did you vote for the SF4 National Tournament Dream Team yet? The deadline is December 21, at 9 PM! So there's only three days left. If you haven't voted yet, head to the SF4 Mobile Site immediately and cast your vote! [A "dream team" of players will be qualified for the Japanese nationals by fan vote. Voting is open only to SF4 players with an arcade IC card registered with the SF4 mobile website -Jig's note]
OK, so let's move on to SSF4.
A merry merry Christmas is almost upon us! So, PlayStation Home is hosting the "Christmas Illumination" event!
Of course, SSF4 will join the party.
12/19 0:00
12/20 18:00
12/25 23:00
12/25 22:00
Visit the PlayStation Home Square at the above times, and... W-w-what!? Felyne and Melynx from Monster Hunter Freedom Unite will introduce SSF4, and Jill from Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition will be there too! And Ryu! You can see amazing snow sculptures... and you will be able to receive exclusive, never-before-available items!! Wow, this is just something you can't miss! ...Ah, well, instead of coming at the exact times noted above, it might be a good idea to be a little early. I'm really looking forward to it too! [This all refers to an event held on the Japanese PlayStation Home, of course - Jig's note]
Very well!
Today, I'll give a proper introduction to something you've probably seen a glimpse of here and there recently, namely the new stages in SSF4!!
SSF4 will have four new stages.

This is the India Stage. Look at Dhalsim go! OK, let's take a closer look at this stage.

The cow is enjoying a free meal courtesy of the falling fruit.

When the battle heats up, the elephants will fall over!

And it's not just the elephants. Cows, people, everyone is falling over!

This geezer kind of sticks out.

Even Dhalsim's wife is here to cheer on! Actually, you will only see Sally cheering on when Dhalsim is fighting.

A cow feeding on some grass.

Everyone gets really excited when you win!

Next up! Here's a stage from Juri's home country, Korea. This stage was created with a lot of support from Capcom Korea. Take a good look!

A busy marketplace. Vendors and customers, everyone's excited to watch the fight!

Here's a guy looking into the camera. And there's a pretty detailed park way back in the distance! (I noticed it just now)

Some kind of sausage... looks delicious! I want some! I want some right now!

The left hand part of the stage looks like this. All kinds of people are stopping by to watch.

Looks like they're a couple, huh. Hey, boyfriend, get a hold of yourself!

A lady who sells socks and shoes. With matching eyeshadow and scarf, she's seems like a pretty fashionable woman.

When you win the match, this old couple gets all lovey dovey!

This is the stage I want to brag about the most, the savannah stage! I'm sure that T.Hawk would agree that this stage's standout feature is the lovingly detailed depiction of all the animals. So I'll show you a lot of pictures of just that!

Meerkats. Their heads pop up as if they're asking "Hey, what's going on here?".

They start to gather, and soon enough a whole band of meerkat spectators will be watching.

A peaceful savannah scene. The sun is shining brightly...

Or so you'd think! In this stage, you'll get to witness a solar eclipse!

Those hippos are huge! But actually, in real life hippos are about 3.5-4 meters long and weigh about 1.2-2.6 tons. Just like elephants, these are some enormous land creatures. Kinda scary.

A giraffe, two zebras and a cheetah, running across the savannah. Wait, what kind of game is this again?

The meerkats and hippos get really really into the fight for some reason. ... I'm a little worried about the meerkats. Wait - there's something in the hippo's mouth!

Tada! It's a white bird taking a break in the hippo's mouth! Instead of asking the staff, I looked it up myself and, this bird is an intermediate egret! I'm sure of it!

Ah...

Aaah...

Free at last!

The hippo falls over dramatically in all the excitement, but the giraffe just calmly looks on.

The giraffe gracefully drinks water, but what about when the match gets going..?

Its legs are long, so falling over must really hurt!

When you win the match, the meerkats start clapping and cheering!!

And here's the fourth stage. The construction site stage, that got everybody talking about Andore!

Here you can see the whole stage. When you look at the stage, you get a slight feeling that Servbots might appear somewhere...

Even behind that net in the background, people are moving about!

This guy in the red hardhat looks like he's the foreman. Lunch time!

This is the right hand corner of the stage. That guy is just playing around on that loading cart...

There he is, the much talked about Andore!! And way back in the foggy distance, you can see... the Mayor! It's the Mayor! Wow, that's quite the statue...

Andore is horrified to see his colleague about to fall. That pose really gets his emotion across.

Do a move that travels high up like this one, and you can even see the upper floors of the construction site! I kind of feel bad for Fuerte though, you can tell he's not getting out of that one...

I would like to see Sagat's stage. Heck I would love it if they redid all of the casts stages from SF2... OH, I got it! A WWE stage. That would be so cool.

"one thing thou Guy's dashing elbow (or whatever is called)

It does both in alpha. Just depends on where he hits during his animation. If you hit close its his shoulder, or you can let him extend fully and hit with his hand.

they still need to make ryu's sagats vegas and hondas... all r very classics and prob would look awesome with da new updates....

The Africa Stage suggests Elena =^D!!!! Love Elena. Adon is from Thailand located in Asia not Africa. I'm hoping they add Elena and Ibuki!!!! Those girls are fierce if you know how to use them. India is great, Korea is sick, and the Construction zone is just fantastic!!!!! I love the new stages already. I hope more comes and they add Elena and Ibuki!!!!!
Nippon Ichi!!!!!!!!

Nobody has personal stages in SFIV or SSFIV except Seth. I wish people would quit asking for them.
So, I guess so far they have only showed us 5 new stages? Hope they still have a few more up their sleeves.

and reason why I look at my name is cause the list didn't predict she would be in
Posted by shut up on December 17, 2009 at 8:53 p.m. #26
There are no character-specific stages in SFIV, an Africa stage means nothing, although it looks pretty nice. Elena won't be in the game just because there's an Africa stage, just like Rolento is most likely not going to be in just because the construction stage looks kind of like his level. Stop jumping to conclusions about rumor lists failing you.
Posted by Rumor list will fail you on December 17, 2009 at 9 p.m. #27
not jumping to conclusions I never said she would be in the game either just saying that everyone who believe she is also were alot of people telling me that the rumor list was true down to the last character.

Posted by This field is required. on December 17, 2009 at 10:21 p.m. #36
The old stage pic is merely showing the difference in detail and scale from old to new. even though some the old stages were pretty damn detailed.
Posted by Joe on December 17, 2009 at 10:24 p.m. #37
Alright, just because I'm bored, here's my take on all four stages:
I really like India, it has a lot of color to it and I really like those elephants in the background.
I have to see Korea in gameplay, because it does seem a little generic. I do however like how the whole crowd is interested in the fight, even the old couple, and after the fighters beat one another, they can grab something to eat.
Yes, Africa is by far the best. All the animals in the background look great and the eclipse look really interesting. Oh, and the bird in the mouth of the hippo, funny.
The construction stage, it looks kinda boring at first, until I realized the fighters are fighting on a platform being held by a crane! Think about it, you've backed up your opponent to the end of the screen, he's down and you go in for a cross up to finish him, and then... you fall 100 stories to your doom!
I normally don't write post this long, but I'm bored right now so sew he.

Wow! The stages are awesome! So much detail. I'm really excited! I hope that Africa does spell Elena being in the game. She would be an awesome addition to Street Fighter 4 (Super). I'm crossing my fingers for that!
Posted by RHayabusa on December 18, 2009 at 12:03 a.m. #48
All the NPC charcaters look like NPC characters from Shenmue and the Africa level looks like a rip-off from DOA4. I REALLY hope they change the music for SSFIV (and no I don't mean the menu theme song), to me that is much more important. I din't care for even one of the SFIV stages before, but that's maybe becuase all the other SF stages I liked were in 2d, except they wey were usually personalized stages...
Posted by you guys are retarded. on December 18, 2009 at 12:06 a.m. #49
THEY OPENLY SAID THERE IS NOT CHARACTER SPECIFIC STAGES. FOR YOU DUMB DUMBS THAT MEANS NOT EVERY CHAR WILL HAVE A STAGE NOR IS EVERY STAGE DESIGNATED TO A CHARACTER. god damn you guys are idiots.

I highly doubt it. It's probably a dead giveaway that Elena's returning. I know because her 3rd strike stage is the same, but sunset. Adon's from Thailand, so they'll make his stage there.
Posted by Benichon on December 18, 2009 at 12:56 a.m. #52
@ #2 :
In SF4, one of the artwork won thanks to challenge show a picture about Metro City and another show the Sagat Stage, so it's near to be sure it will be there (i think).
Posted by KillBot on December 18, 2009 at 12:58 a.m. #53
If Elena returns (which is doubtful), then wonderful.
But I like the new stages anyway. Korea, looks great, I love the crowds, mostly because I'm not hung up on "HEY LETS MAKE THE CROWDS JUST AS DETAILED AND SMOOTH AS THE CHARACTERS, SO WE CAN GET SLOWDOWN OUT THE ASS, YAY!!!" And I like Africa, because they put hard work in making it look so good, with so much personality, and it's far better than DOA4's Africa, if you don't think so, obviously you're a DOA fan and this is not the place for you. I think that the music of SF4 was practical, blood-pumping music, not the best I've ever heard, but fitting, and not dull. As much as I loved SF3:2I's music, but it wouldn't fit SF4's mood as well as the current music. But hey, it seems like most folks are spoiled. "Make a sequel to SF3!" *Capcom does, perfectly* "It's not good enough for our impossible expectations! Do what we say, or we'll keep buying your games anyway, but spend all our time whining on the internet about them!"
Pathetic.

But the only thing that could dethrone SSF4...is MVC3.
Or CVS3, but it ain't happenin'. Not half as likely as MVC3, which isn't too likely next year either.

Posted by halo on December 18, 2009 at 1:53 a.m. #60
Having a Sagat/Adon stage should be a no brainer, its by far the most requested stage and having 2 fighters from Thailand and no stage is a bit weird
Posted by Downunder on December 18, 2009 at 2:33 a.m. #61
i cant believe they have not done a stage for Australia! I believe in the Alpha series they had the water fall stage and sort of fighting on the cliff? Or the grass stage where it was a rip from the anime movie where ryu and sagat were fighting??
Posted by Anon on December 18, 2009 at 2:47 a.m. #62
@61
The waterfall stage was Venezuela. The grassy plain in the thunderstorm was Australia, though. Not to mention one of the more recognizable SF stages throughout the series, and incredibly simple and easy to repeat.
@everyone saying the Africa stage means Elena
There was an Africa stage in the last game, and no African character. There was an Australian stage in Alpha, there isn't even an Australian SF character. It means nothing.
Posted by Albert Wesker on December 18, 2009 at 2:57 a.m. #63
So we have 2 Korea stages, an African, a new lab stage, a India, and a construction stage. So that is 6. I predict there will be at least 2 more to be shown off.
Posted by Benichon on December 18, 2009 at 2:59 a.m. #64

Only ONE Koera Stage.

#59 for me it's :
1) India
2) Savannah
3) Construction Zone
4) Seth's new lab
5) Korea
#62 you are right. It's just a pity that we get many stages which are not related to existing characters. Considering how many Japanese and American characters we have, the remaining ethnicity should have been an easy task to have respective locations offered. Instead we get 2 African stages which although look stunning are very random, etc.
I would have loved to see France (Abel), Italy (Rose), Mexico (El Fuerte & T.Hawk), Thailand (Sagat & Adon) etc etc

Well, Jigsaw translated the blog and they said that there will only be 4 new stages total in SSFIV. 1 in S. Korea, the construction one, 1 in India, and 1 on the Savanna.
They don't show the Seth's redesigned lab stage nor do they talk about it.....hmmmm, I wonder if that is just for single player, like in SFIV the lab starts going crazy when Seth gets low health, so I guess in this one it starts exploding.

@98 :
Everybody noticed it since some weeks already and Seth Killian have done this picture to show it but it's not really important : http://fast1.onesite.com/capcom-unity...

Where did you find that? Thanks although it can be fake :p.
Posted by jammasta on December 18, 2009 at 12:03 p.m. #102
Those are kinda odd character placements, but that looks pretty nice if legit. 35 character spaces (plus one random), 22 stages and 2 question marks (Random?).

So Pictures are not fake :).

The person underneath Ryu looks like Juri.
Also, for all those going "ZOMG AFRICA!!1", did you forget we already have an Africa stage in regular SF4?
Posted by Benichon on December 18, 2009 at 12:28 p.m. #110
Famitsu has just finished the show with SSF4 grrr.
Posted by Me wants weather! on December 18, 2009 at 12:31 p.m. #111
Those stages are pretty nice, but I wish they would do more with weather and weather changes - like the solar eclipse, but more!
Posted by Just enough room on December 18, 2009 at 12:32 p.m. #112
For ibuki, makoto, dudley and hakan that is.
Posted by 100 on December 18, 2009 at 12:35 p.m. #113
I found it from a post on capcom-unity forums. Now hadoken.net's got it on their main site too and they said it was from a Famitsu online show by Ono (probably the live stream posted by 106).
That would explain everyone being on that roster except the remaining four to soon be revealed. :-)

I confirm, it's that :).
Posted by Benichon on December 18, 2009 at 12:41 p.m. #115
We must just wait that stream is closed to be seen as a recorded live.

Thx

moving 0r stationery train,truck, helicopter or air plane stage where you fight on top like dragon ninja,i dont know how it would fit in with sf.jus an idea.

africa is elena not Adon... adon is thailand
Posted by Real Talk on December 18, 2009 at 4:10 p.m. #119
Guys,
Stay calm. Some people (look North!) have seen the game specs already. The final four characters ARE who you've heard about from time now. Elena is not on the list. Maybe she'll make the final cut or something, but none of those four remaining spots belongs to her.
:)
Posted by Sablicious on December 18, 2009 at 5:55 p.m. #120
Pretty stages. Hope it comes with GAMEPLAY to match.
Posted by Capoeira and Boxing on December 18, 2009 at 6:30 p.m. #121
The Africa stage is for Deejay and Balrog. Both are Africans.
Posted by bunny on December 18, 2009 at 6:59 p.m. #122
dam i really want to like sf4 but its so fukking cheap even blocking is way to difficult i hope some shiite is changed in ssf4 it would b nice to fight someone bsides ryu im so sick of ryu every fing fight no 1 ever picks ny 1 but ryu and saget this game is not an improvement over alpha or sf3 capcom failed
Posted by Maxout12 on December 19, 2009 at 12:35 a.m. #123
Ok their is only one character from street fighter who i think is from Africa and that Elena.
Posted by bunny on December 19, 2009 at 1:15 a.m. #124
the new screen shots are tight cant wait to try out guy and adon i miss the char. spacific stages,and the old juggle system and old move priorities i think ill go play my alpha collection and then some 3rd strike of course when games are those good it becomes hard to compare others but imo this feels about as good as the fist alpha just a little prettier and for all the beef w arika sf4 sure plays alot like ex to me. any 1 heard anything about a new vampire saviors game they would have to make the levels alot bigger or some of the ds crews speacals would fill up half or more of the screen...this will piss peaple off but id rather see a cvs3 over mvc3 how about a new game so we can finally get away from sfers broken traditions and make something totally origenal and epic again like sf2 was to begin with and a way to stop long combo's once they've started like a ki combo breaker nothing worse than watching a nice twenty hit combo thats unblockable after first hit .

elena = win XDDDD
Posted by DICTATORNEWSTAGEPLZ on December 19, 2009 at 5:59 a.m. #126
M.bison (dictator) should have his own stage. He was an original boss but has no shadaloo stages in sf4. Or if they have one in thailand so sagat,dictator,vega,balrog all can share.
Also who agrees they should make SF2 a secret unlockable game on SSF4? With all the original BGM and simple gameplay which was priceless. Going back to old skool, sf2 hd remix just dont feel the same.
Also the sf4 online gameplay Lag jus puts me off sometimes from playing. All the searching and waiting is silly for an opponent with good signal. They should really try to fix n improve this in sf4.
Posted by Wontontonton on December 19, 2009 at 1:14 p.m. #127
The African stage looks like Elena's stage. This gives me the impression that Elena will be in this game over Makoto.
Posted by ELENA,HUGO,YANG on December 19, 2009 at 9:05 p.m. #128
that would be so unique and extroadinary if capcom add their fantastic capoeira fighter ELENA! ALSO HUGO!,YANG! and can you also add a rocky mountains level and a wild west desert level and sf5 needs a fighter from austrailia that looks like crocodile dundee wit the hat maybe a croc wrestler thanks capcom!
Posted by OhNoes... on December 20, 2009 at 2:56 a.m. #129
Wut ? So That's it ? Only 4 new stages for SSF4 ?
Still not a stage by character ?
WTF Capcom... So lazy.

@77
dang. i leave this blog for a while and you jack my name. dont hide behind other peoples shadow. shine in your own light.
@ killbot
dont get me mixed up with that. im sure you seen my comments, so you may know what i talk about. too old to talk crap to people online. im just waiting for karin to get announced on ssf4.
Posted by Cammy's bootycall on January 5, 2010 at 1:30 a.m. #131
I don't know why capcom stated that there were no character specific stages. Chun li has a stage, dahlsim has his wife in the India stage and Seth has one. Just remake all of the old school stages and remix the sf2 soundtrack on the DLC marketplace. They have all the time in the world to do it if it's DLC.
Posted by thuraminho on August 26, 2010 at 7:25 a.m. #132
Finally ssf4 with 3D and some <a href="http://www.mestresbrasil.com"> capoeira </a> ! Awesssssssome
