I couldn't care less about Street Fighter 2 HD Remix, since the current Street Fighter game on XBLA is pretty shitty and online doesn't work out all that good. I mean, there's niggallions of different versions already. But Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo? This was one of my favorite PS1 puzzle games and I'll definitely be buying it once it hits.

Hopefully Anita will be a playable hidden character. <3

Jam it back in, in the dark.

As much as I'd like to see a full blown, revolutionary, big budget Street Fighter IV, I can see why Capcom would stick to a familiar, safe formula and just update Super Turbo.

It's because Street Fighter is such a popular series now that if Capcom fucked up and made a terrible Street Fighter 4, there'd be hell to pay.

There's too much risk for them to bother.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

They've already done 3 revisions of Street Fighter 3. I highly doubt they're gonna do any others.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Problem is, unless you do the sandpaper mod on the 360 controller, you're stuck with it's terrible dpad. Not gonna even bother with fighting games with that shit. I mean yeah it's a good controller, but the dpad is just terrible. Replace it with a Saturn dpad and you'd have one of the best controllers ever created, but instead you've gotta deal with a constrained brick in a box.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Niche or not, they have made plenty of money to warrent a remake

Yeah. Arcade sticks. Not analog sticks or shitty constricted 360 dpads.

I was speaking idiomatically.

They're not, they just release the same Guilty Gear XX with a few added tweaks once a year to generate more cash. #Reload, Slash and Accent Core are all practically the same game although there's a few additions added to every one.

Guilty Gear X3 will never come out.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

It came outside of Japan. Right in peak time of the Dreamcasts actual life too. It didn't sell well because Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and Capcom vs. SNK 2 came out the same year.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
