Seth Killian said Capcom has something "very cool" planned for Super Street Fighter 4's launch date, April 27, 2010 via the Unity Boards.
Will there be another Street Fighter Club in San Francisco? The GDC one was super exclusive and hard to get into.
Seth Killian: No plans for a fight club in San Francisco right now, although we will be doing something very cool for the game around launch.
As for the event during [the] Game Developers Conference, yes, this wasn't really a "fight club" at all — more like a press event that I was able to squeeze a few Street Fighter [players] into, plus SFIV [on the] iPhone. I didn't want to talk much about it because it seemed like kind of a tease, and I don't like the things I can't get bunches of people into...

Free alternate costumes for everyone! Except the PS3 users! :-P

No doubt it'll be a some tournament. Maybe the Japanese players will come down again.

Yeah, screw Seth for wanting to plan a nice event for the game's launch.
What an ass!

@FrancysPai #4 "Does it involve nailing Seth to a cross and setting him on fire Hell I'd fly to the states for that."
If you are indeed serious about this statement you are a total ass. Stay out of my country please, we have enough douchebags here.

Awesome, I likely won't be able to participate in it or care about it at all.

@ 2
I could definitely see that.
Posted by NobleEskimo on March 17, 2010 at 3:23 p.m. #8
My guess is it's a SSF4 launch tournament, winner gets an EVO trip paid for, etc.

@#10
That would be pretty awesome.

Hopefully they gather a bunch of people around a gigantic 50 foot screen and announce over a loudspeaker:
"Hey guys, we were just kidding around with Akuma's second Ultra. Here's his real one:

Thanks, we'll be here all week. Be sure to tip your waitress."
Posted by Aquaman on March 17, 2010 at 5:10 p.m. #16
Darkstalkers announcement... or Mega Man Legends III announcement...
Make it happen!

"we have decided to buff Sagat a little, so Sagat fans will be please to discover he is a little better now than he was in Street Fighter IV"

PC Version? ;)
Posted by Chryo on March 17, 2010 at 7:12 p.m. #22
@#17 noob saibot
Yeah, because plot>gameplay, continuity is serious business in Street Fighter am I right guys?
Posted by Sol_Badguy on March 17, 2010 at 7:29 p.m. #23
@RipoffDLC
Don't like it? Don't buy it. Some of us are not poor and actually have jobs. The game itself is being released at a discounted price, too, so there really shouldn't be any complaints about an optional purchase.
Posted by Nakao on March 17, 2010 at 7:43 p.m. #24
NATIONAL SSF4 TOURNAMENT?!!!! hopefully...either that or an arcade release
Posted by Shep131 on March 17, 2010 at 7:57 p.m. #25

What's so cool? A arcade+PC version?
Posted by Ex_Ein on March 17, 2010 at 10:41 p.m. #29
no arcade or pc release
Posted by Ex_Ein on March 17, 2010 at 10:54 p.m. #30
guys how many times do people have to mention that:
-THE ARCADE CABINETS DIDN'T SELL ENOUGH TO GET A RELEASE FOR SSF4.
-THE PC VERSION DID NOT SELL ENOUGH UNITS TO CONSIDER PORTING EVEN THE CONSOLE VERSIONS TO IT.
Let's say this was you, if you had 4 game systems that had constant flow of games being made for them of the same quality, 2 break down would you pay for games for them? or would you focus on the ones that are working?
Posted by FrancysPai on March 18, 2010 at 12:45 a.m. #31
#5. Wow...just....wow.
Taking life a tad seriously there aren't we?
On a serious note, I'm going to laugh if it's something terribly bad. *lover of irony*
Posted by yes4me on March 18, 2010 at 12:59 a.m. #32
Too bad a lot of you can't read #19. There are some chance for an arcade version... which would mean a PC version is not impossible either... even if Capcom didn't make a lot of money.
Posted by Ex_Ein on March 18, 2010 at 1:54 a.m. #33
some chance but nothing OFFICIAL you know that thing where it's not just a rumor cause last time anyone relied on rumors for the arcades both of them kinda didn't come true
Posted by zombiebrian on March 18, 2010 at 4 a.m. #34
some people will argue over anything.
I think a arcade release is a given theres almost no chance it wont happen the pc on the other hand i dont think will happen i dont think capcom felt it was worth it the first time around. It made money but not enough i dont think.
Posted by Supersf4 on March 18, 2010 at 5:54 a.m. #35
capcom did say somewhere cant remember that some of the new characters were more for pros.
Maybe they'll do arcade release.
Posted by juxtapose on March 18, 2010 at 5:58 a.m. #36
Is anyone else tired of these genereic "there will be something cool" statements from Capcom? They've promised us "cool" stuff several times and it's always been underwhelming.
Why does it have to be a big secret, Capcom? Is it because it's not really that exciting but you want to hype it up so you can sell units? This "tease" marketing is getting old fast.
Posted by Shep131 on March 18, 2010 at 10 a.m. #37
i hope we get an extra character just because the design team had some free time :) ps. this is only a joke, i know how u guys like to rip the feck outta summat thats not feasable
Posted by KingN0thing on March 18, 2010 at noon #38
This cool thing ur gonna do seth, it better be announcing The king will get his cancelable far st.lk back. Shame on you for ruining his footsies. He will be so boring now :(
