• Hey Hirose in Akihabara: July 23 - 25
• High Tech Sega Avion in Osaka: July 30 - August 1
• Plaza Capcom Kichijoji in Tokyo: August 6 - 8
The arcade version will not be a straight port of what's currently available on the PS3/360, as it's been stated a few new bells and whistles will be added, although it's not known how far they'll end up going in this regard.
Additional characters have been suggested, but it shouldn't be long before reports start coming in detailing exactly what's in the latest version of the game.
There are also a few new screens available where you can see some additional statistics, like how many battles you've played in and the current match record.

That title makes it look like Ryu has a small hand and a long ass headband haha

i like that they display your title on the top, it's basically useless in Super's online mode you can only see it in the loading screen lol

Bummed to see the same low textures on the Jungle background. You'd think after all this time they would improve them

Does anyone know where hey hirose is in akihabara?
Posted by ado on July 20, 2010 at 3:35 a.m. #6
@halo
ya i wish they redid the textures for all the old stages
new ones look great but some of the old ones are noticeably worse in quality

This is more exciting for me than Capcom v Namco (if that is that case)

#17 No, I'd much rather support SF on the PC and not have to worry about online effing up. It's well worth it.

@ Quezacoatl
I agree but let's just Wait and see.
@Blanka
Just because you don't jack don't mean 1,000s of others won't

Rolento and Yun or Elena or even Alex would be amazing.
Posted by TheCreator on July 20, 2010 at 10:53 a.m. #20
The arcade version is looking good so far
Posted by Guile4Life on July 20, 2010 at 10:59 a.m. #21
rolento n mika n elena n hugo i herd are gona be in it all characters i dont like hoping for yun n alex but abel n rufus are to similiar so i doubt it
Posted by Guile4Life on July 20, 2010 at 11:01 a.m. #22
pc version equals pirate game thats why u guys have to wait ahaha cuz your to cheap to buy it. i say no to the pc version make them buy the game lmao
Posted by BlankaBeast on July 20, 2010 at 11:02 a.m. #23
@Ex True, and because 1000's of others jack don't meant 1000's more wont buy. Your logic goes both ways.
Posted by Guile4Life on July 20, 2010 at 11:03 a.m. #24
online fing up ok sure maybe its your connection dude hmmm
Posted by Guile4Life on July 20, 2010 at 11:07 a.m. #25
@blankabeast dude 80% of the pc users will pirate it why u think they are taking there time deciding on it cuz they wanna make there money before they basicaly give it for free on the pc so your logic on 1000 will pirate n 1000 will buy is ignorance and your wrong
Posted by Guile4Life on July 20, 2010 at 11:11 a.m. #26
and i cant believe people complain about textures on old maps i dont even pay attention to the map to bussy playing people to care about the damn stage. il play on training stage over n over if i have to dont care less lag anyways lol people nit pick on dumb shiz u make a fighting game then lol

@BlankaBeast
You said it! SUPERSFIV PC INCOMING!!!
Posted by BlankaBeast on July 20, 2010 at 11:22 a.m. #28
@Guile Until you have actual sales numbers to back that 80% you are just assuming. Its not hard to port since arcade=PC minus online and the sales profit will more than make up for the time spent. Its all about final profit margin vs time, not just how many people pirate.
Posted by Fightingfan69 on July 20, 2010 at 11:28 a.m. #29
If they add new Characters and balance tweaks etc. There had better be a DLC patch for the consoles. I haven't heard otherwise.
The game still needs some balance changes Especially to my favorites, Gen, Makoto, and Guy.
Posted by Bob on July 20, 2010 at 11:37 a.m. #30
Man I want those battle cards. They should release them in the USA.

@DoomGuy86 - Word!
Posted by Ex_Ein on July 20, 2010 at 12:03 p.m. #32
@Blanka
Street Fighter 4 was pirated 1,850,000 times by the end of 2009 alone mind you it had only been out 4 months and Capcom has not put out numbers on SF4 Pc's versions all they've said is that they're 'pleased'
Posted by Ex_Ein on July 20, 2010 at 12:05 p.m. #33
and those are all only for the PC versions
Posted by KiD_CuDi on July 20, 2010 at 12:19 p.m. #34
yeah SF4 for PC was like the second or third most downloaded game in 2009.
Posted by BlankaBeast on July 20, 2010 at 12:22 p.m. #35
I like being pleased. I am sure they do too. Works for me!
PC FTW!!
Posted by Rvo2099 on July 20, 2010 at 12:26 p.m. #36
Why nobody complains about Xbox pirated copies?
Posted by Rvo2099 on July 20, 2010 at 12:28 p.m. #37
BlankaBeast is right again. Being pleased is good.
Posted by Ex_Ein on July 20, 2010 at 12:38 p.m. #38
#Blankabeast
they were pleased but not enough to make Super for PC, notice how that works?
@Rvo2099
Because it still sold 1.45 million copies
and was only pirated 840k times by the end of 2009
They made a significant amount of money on the 360 versions alone
Posted by Ex_Ein on July 20, 2010 at 12:39 p.m. #39
You can be pleased but doesn't mean you want to do that again....
Posted by BlankaBeast on July 20, 2010 at 12:45 p.m. #40
@Ex Yes I noticed how PC vanilla version came out months later too. I also noticed these things take time.
I quote:
Fans who bought the PC version of Street Fighter 4 are waiting for SSF4, will it happen? If so, when?
Ono: We are solving various problems now. Time is necessary for this.

It might help you notice better too!!
Posted by BlankaBeast on July 20, 2010 at 12:51 p.m. #41
also @Ex Hmmm, yeeaaa because I know I don't like doing pleasing things over and over again... o_O
You should really not use your "that doesn't mean" argument anymore. Try to think of what things DO mean, not what they dont. :-)
Posted by Ex_Ein on July 20, 2010 at 12:57 p.m. #42
.....lol you noticed how he NEVER said "it is gonna happen". Just "We're solving various problem" what if he can't solve them or worse Capcom says to Ono "We don't see this project as profitable so we're going to shut down production of the PC version...you noticed he hasn't mentioned it since...
Posted by Ex_Ein on July 20, 2010 at 12:58 p.m. #43
Just because it's pleasing this one time doesn't mean it will be pleasing again...
Posted by DoomGuy86 on July 20, 2010 at 1 p.m. #44
Hey people, get relax and think a little for us PC users. It's easy to f"&ยท people with easy comments and done. Give us the benefit of the doubt, OK? I'm a PC player and a regular buyer, I get my legal copies and Street Fighter IV it's one in my collection. I hate pirates and I assume I can't do anything, so stop f@%&:%!, please.
Posted by Ex_Ein on July 20, 2010 at 1:04 p.m. #45
You over generalize thinking that they'd automatically have the same "pleasing results" you need to think of "what if they do worse and isn't pleasing" because I personally don't see it doing better.

I'm not saying "F*** you guys on PC" they can do it all they want but I just don't see it happening
Posted by Guile4Life on July 20, 2010 at 1:11 p.m. #47
@Ein See someone else that understands my point hope it never comes out for the pc. pc users sori for those who actually buy the game but the more money they make the more they will make titles so i hope they do there best to keep it from getting pirated ahahaha!
Posted by Ex_Ein on July 20, 2010 at 1:13 p.m. #48
so it's not F*** the PC as much as..... "do you guys(capcom) think this will be profitable and won't have more pirated copies then bought copies?"
Posted by kyo on July 20, 2010 at 1:18 p.m. #49
@wettrix it's HEY Arcade in Akiba kind of hard to miss a few stores down from Club Sega on the main street on the side away from the station.
Posted by Ex_Ein on July 20, 2010 at 1:20 p.m. #50
If it isn't profitable for Capcom to do I don't see the reason why they should waste their money on it, and not just make other projects such as Original IPs like Dead Rising and Lost Planet with that money.
Say this to all you PC guys(and girls who won't reveal themselves as such) would say if the PS3 and 360 could be pirated and were being pirated and possibly damage the company profitability and the PC version was less likely to be pirated would you not say "if it hurts profitability I wouldn't suggest doing it"? because this could potentially kill the series as a whole
Posted by BlankaBeast on July 20, 2010 at 1:41 p.m. #51
Once again its all time/effort vs profit, and it takes a whole lot less time to swap code from arcade and add in the net code to make it a PC port than to develop a whole new game. It's just profit waiting to be had pretty much.
Also most pirated usually means most popular which relates to best selling. If anything thats a good sign, not a bad one.
Posted by DoomGuy86 on July 20, 2010 at 1:58 p.m. #52
@Ex_Ein
Okay, sorry, maybe I've gone a little. What I say is we have alreday assumed PC players the situation where we are, so at least let us dream and do not remember that to us. I'm based that Capcom announced time ago that along Intel and others create some kind of consortium that advocates the PC gaming, so denying SUPERSFIV PC, that make them a little hypocritical.
Posted by Paraside on July 20, 2010 at 2:45 p.m. #53
I hope they put NEW CHARACTERS or at least new stages... OR BOTH!
Posted by NeoSmoke on July 20, 2010 at 3:35 p.m. #54
This is good news seems like Arcade SSF4 will be released by at least october. I hope they still do the character tweaks before it releases and add new stages. More characters aren't needed they just need to tweak some of the weaker characters a bit and make ultras that are a bit weak stronger/more usable.
Posted by adamiswambo on July 20, 2010 at 4:57 p.m. #55
Does that mean that only Japan will have the exclusive arcade release or does America get a shot at it? :D
Posted by Gameplan on July 20, 2010 at 6:13 p.m. #56
Hope they make a DLC with all the changes in the arcade version.
Posted by geodude on July 20, 2010 at 7:02 p.m. #57
they need faster in between match times for team battle and tournament. doubt that will happen, though.
at least give selectable BGM music! And gamertag/character replay lookups!

@51 thanks, after some scouting on the internet I found the place. I will be going on friday to check it out and hopefully try it. Even if I play with SF gamepad as standard it will be fun to try cammy on the arcade.
Posted by calvinfoo on July 22, 2010 at 2:40 a.m. #61
More Alpha Characters please!
Rolento!
Sodom!
Juli!
Juni!
Keep all alien and frankenstein characters to SF3 please, One Seth is more than enough, we don't need another one.
