Really? I feel like I gravitated to Cammy because she's easy to play with an anlog stick. Other than her ridiculous hooligan combo (which isn't necessary i feel unless you're doing high level play) everything else with her is really easy to pull off. Well that's not true...I feel like my canon spikes are always done out of luck more than anything else...
ShinAmano said:So for fun I asked Madcatz when they may be restocking the fightpads...this was the response:
The question was not answered, but I don't feel like I would get one on the reply
funny, i got a personal response from CSR before the TE stick release's date where they said they will try to restock more in the future. i guess they got so many emails that they set up a copy/paste message to deal with it.

ffs i wish i could play some alternate characters. KEN KEN KEN KEN RYU KEN KEN KEN GUILE
So I finally got around the playing it. Had a bit of a tournament with some friends, and then I stayed over at their house and played for like 8 hours straight. I'm not exactly an expert, but here's my thoughts.
First thing I notice is that the game is and it isn't Street Fighter II. Almost every SFII character has the same moveset but because the game has different mechanics and proportions the feel is different. Honestly, that's why I think Ken is basically tons more popular than Ryu. Gireballs are not as effective as they used to be, so with Ken's better Hurricane Kick and Shoryuken he's a better pick than Ryu. So even though every character attacks similarly to their SFII counterpart, not every move makes the transition equally.
Honestly, the only SFII character that has a fundamentally different feel is Zangief. His throws are totally different and the ability to do a punishing throw (like a pile driver) right after an unblockable focus attack connects really changes how he plays. I kinda of like the new Zangief.
Also, Seth is total bullshit. It's pretty ridiculous that I blow through the computer in normal rounds and then Seth just runs me over after he powers up. It's also kind of stupid that the only way I've ever been able to beat him is finding a move that works and just spamming it. For example, I tried tons of crazy shit with Rufus to try and beat him, but eventually it all came down to spamming jump kicks.

Check the second part of the OP on page 1 for useful linksHBP said:
I am a multi-console owner so i felt bad a minute ago when a coworker came by asking if I got SF4...then he told me he went out looking only to find out and be disappointed it was not on the Wii...
Granted I know it would be a graphical downgrade, but I am surprised Capcom did not release a Wii version...and hope they do soon as there is a market for it.

Followed these instructions, no Gouken
"Gouken After unlocking Akuma, Sakura, Dan, Cammy, Fei Long, Gen and Rose, complete the game with Akuma. Then get at least 2 perfects and 3 Ultra Finishes and don't use any continues."
Now, I was on Easiest, one round only per match (for the purpose of doing this fast, and it worked for all the other characters)...do I need to be on a higher difficulty for Gouken and Seth?
Also, I did this all on a first playthrough with Akuma right after unlocking him. Do I have to beat it once with him...then on a 2nd time through with him do the 2 perfects/3 ultras clear?

I got Gouken on Easiest 1 round. after i did the whole perfect and ultra i made sure that it worked so i just ultra'd my Rival and Seth to make sure I got it. and then Gouken came out.

Yeah, you misread the instructions. They said to beat the game with Akuma, THEN beat the game again (with a character youve already beaten the game with) with those same requirements (ultras and perfects)
I'm not gonna make fun of your reading comprehension, but a lot of people seem to be missing this point, its a little bizarre to remind people of this on every other page
I just started playing some player matches with C. Viper and holy shit you can play some serious mindgames with people with that fake ground pound move she has. I can't tell you how many people automatically jump straight into into a combo/air throw whenver I do it. Viper will definitely be my new main, I can't wait to get to the point where I can take her into ranked matches and mow through the Ken/Ryu/Sagat players.

Good games, Xintin. The last few matches were particularly good. Lets do em again sometime soon.
I'm loving Dhalsim. You can really mix people up with his teleports. I'm still trying to get used to the timing of his anti airs. Back-Medium Punch seems the best to me, but I really need to get better against the endless amount of jumping RH shotos.

So I have everyone in the game unlocked except Akuma, Gouken and Seth. I just went for unlocking Akuma, so I picked Ken and ran through the game on easiest difficulty and 1 round matches. I got 2 perfects and finished 4 fights with Ultra combos and then after I beat Seth I fought Gouken and not Akuma. I was a little surprised because I thought you fought Akuma first and unlocked him. So I beat Gouken and then nothing happened. I didn't unlock anyone. What did I do wrong?

Don't do any Ultra finishes. Just get the perfects.
