Street Fighter Will Not Be Arriving On The Wii U

Street Fighter Will Not Be Arriving On The Wii UWhile Nintendo’s own lineup of games are pretty popular in their own right, sometimes gamers just want to play something else, but unfortunately for them, big name developers such as Bethesda and Crytek appear to be passing on the chance to develop for the Wii U. Now it looks like Capcom can be added to the list as it seems that the company has no plans to bring their Street Fighter franchise to the Wii U anytime soon. This is according to the game’s executive producer, Yoshinori Ono, in response to a fan’s question.

According to Ono, “We apologize that we don’t have plan abou [sic] it at this moment.” Basically what this means in terms of latest games is that gamers who were hoping they would see Ultra Street Fighter 4 make its way onto the Wii U would be out of luck. Nintendo’s Wii U console seems to be going through a spell of bad luck lately, only managing a somewhat lackluster 160,000 units in the previous quarter, and with the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles set to be released soon, we can’t imagine things will start looking up, but who knows things could turn around with Mario Kart 8 and Super Smash Bros.

    Tekken X Street Fighter Is Still In Development, Producer Reassures Fans

    Tekken X Street Fighter Is Still In Development, Producer Reassures FansBack in 2012, Capcom released the Street Fighter X Tekken crossover game much to the delight of fighting fans around the world. Reviews of the game have been generally positive, but at the same time we’re sure some are wondering about its sibling, the Tekken X Street Fighter title that was briefly mentioned. Given that the title was announced back in 2010, does that mean that the game has ceased development? Well the good news is that if you were looking forward to seeing what Namco Bandai has in store for us, you can rest easy knowing that the game is still in development.

    This was confirmed in an interview with Siliconera with Tekken’s producer, Katsuhiro Harada. According to Harada, “We will say first off that the game is still in development, so you don’t need to worry about that.” Harada also stated that some of the reasons why there has not been any updates on the game was because updates for Street Fighter X Tekken were still being released, and that due to the crossover, it seems that it has created a new community that they wanted to “take care and grow”, rather than just pushing out their game just to capitalize on Street Fighter X Tekken’s popularity. Still no word on when the game could be released, but it’s good to know that it’s still alive and kicking.

    Cat Fighter: Feline vs. Feline

    When cats fight, it’s best that you steer clear and let them resolve the issue themselves. I don’t know about you, but I’m not too eager to step in between a cat fight, especially when the claws are out.

    The Pet Collective put a pretty interesting twist to cat fights that you will no doubt find amusing, and it’s called Cat Fighter.

    Cat Fighter

    It’s a catty parody of the video game Street Fighter, and it’s excellently done, if you ask me. Instead of Ken and Ryu, we’ve got Ren and Kyu (see what they did there?) They’ve got nothing but their claws and sheer ferocity to fight their battles with.

    Ken and Ryu rivalry is re-imagined on a feline level. See these Kittens hash it out in some retro SNES fashion.

    Most cats probably can’t do the high jumps and backflips that you see Ren and Kyu doing, but hey, this is a parody after all.

    On a side note, I find it extremely amusing to see a 5-Year Q&A journal in the center of the fighting arena, since I have the exact same one on my desk right now. Maybe I can host my own Cat Fighter tournament here when my sister visits and brings her kitties with her next week, eh?

    Street Fighter 2 – Guile Theme Acapella Version Seriously Impresses

    Over the past few years, Guile’s theme, which is a background song for Street Fighter II’s Guile’s stage, has been taking the Internet by storm. It has slowly been injected into a large number of videos to instantly make them a viral sensation due to everyone’s agreement in the track instantly making anything better.

    Smooth McGroove recently published his acapella version of the Guile theme, specifically from the Street Fighter II Super Nintendo version, and we think it’s by far one of the best versions of the song that we have heard. McGrove not only accurately belts out each portion of the song with amazing accuracy, but he is even able to match the slight changes in the higher portions of the song which sound like the tune is sliding back and forth.

    Monopoly: Street Fighter Collector’s Edition now available on Amazon

    While Street Fighter is a game you usually play on the console while beating your friends senseless, you might recall that back in February, Monopoly: Street Fighter Collector’s Edition was announced and gamers were given a chance to vote on the tokens that they’d most like to see in the game. Well if a board game version of Street Fighter is something you wouldn’t mind playing, especially since it adds a very different take on an arcade fighting game, the board game is now available and gamers will be able to pick up a copy for themselves at Amazon for $36.75.

    The 6 tokens chosen by players includes Vega’s mask, the Hadouken, Chun-Li’s wrist cuff, M. Bison, Ryu and Blanka. Instead of trading normal property like in Monopoly, the Street Fighter edition will let players trade fighting arenas and will have Training Rooms and Dojos replace the Houses and Hotels. Sounds quite novel and an interesting take on a very classic game that was played back when computers weren’t as readily accessible or commonplace. So, any takers?
