Didn't Capcom japan sell the rights to Street Fighter to Capcom usa? WHEEEE! Final Fight Revenge with Street Fighter characters! Ba-BANG!

[polarity]

youre retarded

[DarkCat]

Didn't Capcom USA outsource SF4 to Capcom Japan?

[Rhio2k]

What? Did something change? Capcom japan still has the rights?

DarkCat: Beats me. All I ever saw was "SF4 under development" and the trailer.

They did, it was in an interview. I'll look for a link.


We've announced Street Fighter 4 to let everyone know it's in development. We aren't really providing any more information than that at this time, but over the coming months, you'll see bits and pieces come to light. Platforms especially aren't being discussed.

While many of you have pointed out, CUSA owns the rights to Street Fighter, we have contracted Capcom Japan to handle its development (we felt they would, by far, do the best job with the title).

The game is further along in development than probably most of you think, but as we've stated, it's still quite a ways off. Again, the announcement was just to get it on everyone's radar, nothing more.

Beyond that no one at Capcom will speak about characters returning, character count, platforms, features, 2D or 3D or 2.5D, whether the trailer is representative of gameplay/character design/visual targets, arcade or not, online features, downloadable strategy, where it fits in the canon, etc.

All of that will be revealed over time... the next bits will be revealed a bit later this year.

That makes me feel better. I was just sitting around, and suddenly remembered the series changing hands and was like "Wait...aw, SHIT!" Thanks for the info.

[Corner-Trap]

........ well that was random.

So if being made in the USA means that it'll be like FF Revenge...

Does the fact that it's being made in japan mean that it'll be like Capcom Fighting All Stars (cancelled)?

[Hisham]

Ninja EDIT: I'm stupid...

Disregard this post.

As far as I know capcom japan still has the license for street fighter. Maybe you mistaken it with megaman. Cause capcom USA got the rights to make megaman x8

Capcom USA has had the license for Street Fighter for quite a while now. They're outsourcing to Capcom Japan to develop the game.

Thanks I did not hear about that. Maybe that explains why udon is doing street fighter hd.

Was there any explaination on why capcom USA is passing SF4 to japan?

Heres my guess.

1) To please the fans
2) They're working on SFHD

You forgot

3) They can't program for shit. All they can do is localize, make up non-canon names and events, and distribute.

Hahahaha, why did I think of that as soon as I clicked this thread?

Since the studio that made the FF game doesn't exist, are you referring to the PFHD programmers? or the STHD programmers with that statement? AFAIK neither group works directly for Capcom USA anyway, but they are the only people I know that program SF related games in the US right now...

That was COA?! ...I feel kinda crunchy.
