gamestop actually got a memo to clear out non used copies of the game at a discount a couple months back. again i'm suspecting a disc that has both versions on it along side dlc.

yeah since arcades are such the hot spot right now. sf4 probably saw release at less than 30 arcades nation wide. :lol

I have put 600 hours into this beast, so I can safely say that I've got my money's worth back - and a lot more.
Ten more characters? Here we go.... heck, feel free to price it even higher!

If the boys at Capcom had a little more faith in the American arcade scene then maybe it wouldn't have panned out like that. Can't be no hotspot if the developers don't put anything out.
God bless Arc System Works.
There day zero, will pay 60 or more. Ready for the rape! Willing and glad to! Capcom and alike will do this because they know the hardcore will buy it regardless. That being me and many others in here. It's always been like this, let's not kid ourselves here.
On the others doubting. That's always the cycle for fighters, if they want a balanced product unlike :hack:soul calibur:cough: Ahem. Having only a Home release is a big mistake. Without a doubt SFIV Dash or Blazblue CC will be in the arcades for at least 6 months before we see home release. Again, this is the trend fighting games have always taken, and it's for the best.

I'd pay 200 american money dollars for this to be a downloadable game that's always on the hard drive. no more disc based fighting games plz
Also they should make a Q alternate costume makoto, make everyone happy. Because Q is a poorly designed and bad Makoto with moves that don't matter in a game without parries.
This is a Japanese game so there is no way it will possibly be DLC. They'd have to rerelease it on disc anyway to make it any kind of serious release at retail, and at that point they're just taking up hard drive space with the update; just buy the $40 one at the store and get a disc you can resell later.
If it's DLC that requires a disc, that is the worst. Takes up more space on the already small and expensive Xbox Hard Drives, whoopee! And you still have to keep your old disc in the drive! Worst of both worlds!
Also this game isn't coming out on consoles for close to a year so I don't know why this is important now anyway.
I hope they get rid of simple alternate costumes and put in Tekken/VF-style customization. If they want this game to have a long arcade life (among 15 years old boys), it needs it!
Q sux, Alex sux, Adon sux. What happened to Rolento, did they decide characters with advanced movement options were just totally lame? Lets put in more chain combos instead!

And wow at some people freaking out about the DLC/disc-based debate. Are some people on here naturally mean, bitter assholes?
In the end, why give a fuck if it is DLC or a disc? We're all going to fucking buy it anyway. I'm sure the amount of people that will rebuy it warrant a retail release, regardless if it breaks the community up.

"So you work for Capcom? Thanks for the update..."
No, I don't. Do you think they're going to do anything to upset the Japanese arcade scene, though? It's simply conjecture based on the usual trend. I'd be surprised (and happy)if they did anything different. Do you disagree?

Did releasing SFIV for consoles disrupt the arcade scene there? Answer: no. They could release them both the same day and I don't think it would disrupt much as far as arcades go in Japan. Seems like the fighting game players choose arcades regardless of console releases. I think it will be 6 months tops. Japanese arcades won't be disrupted. SFIV cab isn't going to do shit for them in North America either, while a console release here is $$$. Plus it's using an existing engine that is already running on said consoles blah blah blah. Same goes with BB Continuum Shift I hope. We'll see.

Can't believe this. You people are screaming bloody murder for a decade about give us more SF, we miss SF. They give you SF? All of a sudden, NAW MAN, THATS ENOUGH. DONT GIVE ME A SWEET NEW GAME.
Like Third Strike wasn't enough of an improvement over 2nd Impact. Like Alpha 2 wasn't to Alpha. Gimme a break.

"Did releasing SFIV for consoles disrupt the arcade scene there? Answer: no."
It wasn't released the same day or even remotely close so there's no way to say.

I don't necessarily disagree. I would love to see day and date arcade/console releases or even significantly shorter gaps between releases. It's a moot point as to whether it would actually affect Japanese arcades though because how often is that the case? That's my point.

Yeah, we've been buying SF over and over again for a decade now. This is not new.
Will be interesting to see if this will always follow the cooling of interest in the game that always comes with regular milking as well. I remember people bitching and moaning by the time SSF2T came out.
Look what that got them. Arcades in the US ended up dying off and SF3 essentially died on the vine.

I hope it's 6 months. A year would be brutal lol

It wasn't a year the last time. July-Feb. 7 months. Which is about as long as I'd guess would happen this time.

It just depresses me. On the plus side, it always highlights the true believers.

I think there are lot more valid reasons for arcades dying off than Capcom releasing a few too many versions of Street Fighter. Same thing with SF3. I think it was too different for the time. Not enough familiar characters, and the learning curve didn't help either. People who played SFII for years didn't immediately feel comfortable the first time they played the game like all of the SFII versions before it. Consoles getting better and better in America didn't help either SF3 or arcades due to a lot of factors that don't exist in Japan. Size, ease of transportation etc. But yeah, I'm sure SSF2T or the various versions of SF3 was the reason arcades folded here.
Edit: I re-read your post and can't tell if you're blaming Capcom or the people. If the latter... ignore me lol
