Thank goodness for the pixel art mode

 

[sinkfla87]

Now THAT'S the game they should have ported.

If they ported that to the Switch, I would buy a console at launch no joke. What a shame .

 

[apieceofstrange]

This is such a weird game to see announced in 2017.

I'll be damned if I'm not buying it, even if it is $40.

 

[Huw_Dawson]

Does it have online play and rollback netcode?

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Should be a selling point on the package.

Does it have to say "First" or can it also say "Last"?

 

[CadetMahoney]

The price is a big head-scratcher that's for sure. Does this have also have pay to play online?

 

[UnluckyKate]

Ken Bogard, trying the game right now in Paris' event says the game is slower, and apparently the voices are from SF4

the pay to play online is console wide. If you want to take your games online you will need to pay.

Okay.... what?

Edit: Watched the video two pages back (with sound this time) and it does have the SF4 voices. Capcom, what are you doing?

English SF4 voices?

 

[kirblar]

Per Justin just now on twitter, USF2 has throw techs, VK has a KOF-esque combo super.

 

[Stevey]

Looks awful

 

[ty_hot]

At this point the only thing that can save the switch is the price of its games. If the games start coming in the 40-60 range when they shouldnt be more than 20, then the system will have a really hard time...

It is entirely possible that this may cost $20 outside of Japan.

I may end up importing this, however- Japan is getting a retail release and it's very likely that the U.S. will just get a digital release.

 

[LeMaximilian]

From Justin's impressions, it sounds like there's some leniency to the input system that was never really there in the ST titles. Easier combos into super, possibly easier combos in general? Maybe some of the SF5 input buffering at work.

 

[BadWolf]

Talk about scraping the bottom of the barrel, jeez.

 

[Vespa]

Being able to choose the original backgrounds in this is awesome, no idea why it wasn't an option in hd remix. That price is crazy though.

 

[radcliff]

Just in remixed mode, hopefully. All I really want is arcade accurate SSF2 Turbo with online play. The remixed mode is something I would never touch.

That's immediately an entirely different game then. Not sure about it...

I can see the fun in just playing 1 vs 1 everywhere with the joycons, though.

 

[yurinka]

Isn't this the first SF game on a Nintendo home console since the SNES?

Yes, but GBA got SSFIIX and SFA3, 3DS got SFIV3D.

 

[Dartastic]

It's HD Remix with two more characters. And by characters I mean shoto clones.

$40 is unjustifiable and incomprehensible.

.

Even as a hardcore street fighter fan, there's no way I'm buying this. $40? GTFO.

 

[Pompadour]

I understand why they would put next to no effort into the new characters but it feels like if Evil Ryu and Violent Ken were reasonable options they could have thrown in more like Shadow Lady.

 

[Barrel Cannon]

I remember when I liked the artstyle of HD Remix. Then I grew to hate it

Fortunately, the game can be played with the old sprites and backgrounds.

Interesting.
I hope that the original gameplay is also selectable, like in HD Remix.

So far, Tech Throws and several changes have been made to the roster. Chun can't store super charge anymore. No sight of HDRemix balance changes thus far. Also appears to just be the HDRemix graphics and not any of its gameplay.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Any body think this will make Evo?

 

[Lyte Edge]

Any body think this will make Evo?

Sure; there's bound to be at least one dude sitting in the crowd playing it.

 

[Kouichi]

So based off Justin Wong tweets, it seems like this has ST balance with some changes here and there.

You can tech throws in Ultra Street Fighter 2! Hit stun animations are different as well. Evil Ryu has raging demon super.

Akuma air fireball is from ST. Haha the range it has is super OD. Akuma confirmed broken lmao

Played regular Ryu and he is from ST. No fake fireball just straight standard fireball footsie how we love him

Balrog still the same as ST. Has charge petition and can do dash upper into super.

They took out Chun Li store super. Can't store the motion for super anymore

ARMS will be at Evo before this.

Oh wow, all that Sirlin work thrown in the gutter! Lol

 

[Secret Character]

I'm triggered. Capcom please... Why all these changes?

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Because the most recent entry in the franchise is locked to PS4 console exclusivity.

Capcom is one of the dumbest AAA third party devs in recent memory. Around the launch of DMC4/Dead Rising 2/SF4/MVC3/RE5/MonHun Ultimate/Umbrella Chronicles it seemed liked they had consoles pretty well figured out. They've somehow grossly mismanaged all of their major franchises, even if DmC SE and RE7 end up being good.

That's immediately an entirely different game then. Not sure about it...

I can see the fun in just playing 1 vs 1 everywhere with the joycons, though.

Playing with an analog stick seems...less than ideal, no?

 

[Seik]

Is this a physical release? Could be the gamechanger if I'm putting that kind of money into it or not...

 

[Lyte Edge]

Japan is getting a physical release. We don't know about other countries yet.

 

[GuileBootCamp]

They changed the air force logo in Guile's stage to look like the one in his SFV stage. Between stuff like that and the system changes, this is looking less like a lazy HD Remix port with two more shotos, and more like an actual new version of SF2.



...but we STILL don't have a 100% perfect port of ST on any console.

It's sad to think they look like humanitarians compared to what Konami's doing in their house.

Midway through top 8 of SFV we will have a halftime show with USF2 and UMvC3 exhibitions

 

[Piccoro]

Oh dear, that new character select art looks good!

There's no way I'm buying this for $40. That's so scummy, Capcom. I feel scummy just thinking about buying this.

 

[Whompa02]

40 dollars?! Is this a joke? Fuck that.

 

[Jack The Nipper]

is the pixel version made to look good on HD tv's in anyway? Or how is it made, the only way to play.

 

[Bloodporne]

Oh dear, that new character select art looks good!

I do like that Ken still has his 80s Slayer hair even in 2016.

Ken's "He-Man hair" is and always will be the best.

While I liked the Udon sprites, seeing this made me sad because it's like the proper re-rendering of the CPS2 sprites I actually wanted, but limited to just the character portraits
