Street Fighter IV coming to iPhone

Capcom released MegaMan 2, a presumably much easier port, for the iPhone, and I (a big fan of both Capcom and Megaman) spent about 2 minutes playing before I deleted it.

The game didn't work well with the screen-joystick (touch-fuzziness).
It didn't handle app-pauses and didn't pause on home button override (you lose your place).

I wish Capcom well with SF4, but with what I saw from MM2, I would probably wait till it's clear it's playable first.

Street Fighter IV was also released on the PC.

Are you serious, you have played Street Fighter before right? Seriously?

this might mean resident evil for iPhone sold well. keep it up Capcom!

There is a decent fighting game for the iPhone already out there called, if memory serves, "Blades of Fury". It has a similar sort of lay out with added iPod support to listen to your tunes. It only has three buttons, attack, magic, and shield, which also works as jump when used in combination with up on the virtual d-pad. The game is actually a joy to play. Simple controls though, as it was a first attempt at the genre I think by the game designers, but it shows great promise. Also in regards to covering up your fighters, it normally doesn't as you tend to have a system like the samurai showdown game for neo geo where the camera zooms in or out based on the proximity of the characters to eachother on the screen.

Idk Nickux, combos and difficult moves could be interesting depending on how the controls are programmed.

Though I do think that this will be much better on the iPad (with a custom version) - without obscuring the characters.

Nothing says fun like playing SF with a touch-screen joystick and buttons.

I'm sure it'll be fine. I play SF competitively, and I can tell you right now this obviously won't be the version of choice for tourney play. It all just depends on how you look at it, and how serious you take it. Let's face it, people who take the game seriously are not going to like this port, but bringing SFIV to the iPhone isn't for the hardcore fan. But ya know what, for the causal fan, or someone who just wants to pick it up and play a few rounds here and there, this is a great idea, and I'm glad Capcom is doing it (although, me being an Android owner, I'd love to see it ported to Android as well).

Devs, take notice, a casual gamer's port of a hardcore gamer's game is something I'm sure will work. Can't wait to see SFIV on the iPhone.
