• nutsVSguts is back with another unique Street Fighter animation set. This video features Makoto vs. Yun with the typical crotch punching — and kicking — humor you'd expect from these shorts, and of course some home brewed art as well. Sent in by Virtua_Kazama.
• Capcom released new wallpaper and artwork (available as a transparent .png file) for Chun-Li, Sakura, Juri and Ibuki which somewhat resembles the 'cute' artwork found in Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix.
• EventHubs correspondent, Kenshin Hiroki, is reporting that Capcom is offering mobile content in Japan for Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition. Cell phone users who sign up for this service will be able to check their Battle Points and Player Point profiles on their phones and purchase titles, costumes and color variations for their characters. This is similar to the service they offered for vanilla Street Fighter 4 players, but with a few new bells and whistles for the Arcade Edition. Doesn't sound like this will be available outside of Japan, though.
• Kenshin also mentioned that there are new mini SSF4 figurines created by Bandai coming soon, at least in Japan. For now there's only a handful available, but in 2011 they will even have the Arcade Edition cast members. If you mouse over small picture near the bottom, you can see some alternative colors as well.
I understand Rose and Viper's exclusion, but no Cammy?! That's surprising.
Anyhow, new wallpaper GET
Of course, don't include cammy, or viper, because you know, they're not asian (the superior race) and thus not cute.

No, actually it's because if they included any non-Asian characters it would've went from being 'cute' to being 'badass' thus missing the 'cute' target completely.
Trust me...I'm a badassologist, I study these things for a living.
:-P
@ #9
don't front. You know you enjoyed it!!! Besides that video was just painful, yet funny.
@17
Because, you know, Juri is totally meant to be cute, and not a badass.
to: #3 shinakka,
where can i get those figures in the US!??
@19
Of course she's meant to be badass, but that's to balance the picture out. Think about it...it's like water, but instead of two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen, it's two parts cute, and one part badass. Adding anymore badassitude to the mix would result in a dangerous and potentially fatal mix! Likewise removing the badassitude from the picture could be just as deadly!
(On a side note, I'm not trying to troll or anything, just messin' around, so take these posts as a joke -regardless of whether or not they're funny- and nothing more)
@23
bullsh*t. I've seen your so called degree in badassology, but who f*cking helped you with your final paper, huh? All it took was $40, and a trip to some restaurant.
Wallpaper is already set as desktop wallpaper :)
@30
All of that is true, but in my defense it was a very expensive restaurant XD
The artwork doesn't really look Puzzle Fighter-style at all, the heads aren't big enough. :P
