Better the PSP than the DS.
cartoon quality graphics ahhaha
well shit if this is a psp exclusive i may have to pick one up
Same here. I'm rather surprised it won't be for a console, but it would likely fit in more with the PSP than any other system. Plus, they can bring out a revised version later for consoles.
There is an slight chance of a Typo and SFA3, but again, isn't that on GBA?
This is fucking GREAT news!
My favorite E3 related announcement thus far. :eep:
I still want to see Third Strike on a PSP. But this is pretty interesting.
Where's the ARCADE release? Oh, wait.Quote:

It's Zero 3. MagicBox hath fugged up.
GBA has Zero 3 Upper, technically.
It really was silly to think Capcom would or could make anything new.Quote:

I'm waiting for alpha 3 to hit xbox.
Please be online please be online please be online.
That would require effort (and some thought, like actually having a game designed with online play with mind). Neither of which Capcom has showed with this franchise anytime this millenium. Why would they start now?Quote:

yea, you can go ahead and change the title of this thread now, seeing as how it's not Alpha 4 that's coming to PSP.
Can a mod please change this title?
No! Don't! The confusion and disappointment is awesome!Quote:

No?
Well, they did!
You know, I hate to burst your bubbles further than they're already busted, but this isn't as great as you think it is. Why? The PSP is horrid control-wise for fighting games. Ask any Darkstalkers PSP buyers.
Anything other than the whole "only 4 face buttons" thing? While it pisses me off that 6 button fighters are coming out on a 4 face button controller, I am bored with my current PSP offerings and looking for something to hold me over until emultion breaks on US/Updated systems.Quote:

See, that makes them playable.
Either that or change the inputs for some of the moves. See: Match of the Millenium (they changed all the 3 buttons at once commands, which (GASP) makes sense since they were meant to be done with three fingers at once, not a dislocated thumb).
So yeah, it would be neat but frutstrating on the PSP anyway, like the GBA version which is more novelty than anything playable or fun.
You're only dumb if you bought it.Quote:

capcom's determined to ride street fighter until the wheels fall off. why don't people get sick of buying the fucking game over and over and overandoverandoverandover again?
I did until the last decent one in the area closed down about 4 years ago.Quote:

Then there's Flippers about an hour's drive away, but that place has gone downhill in a frighteningly similar manner. Every machine is busted, nobody cares. I won't support that with money.

I remember it all too well. I think the US subsidiary would probably create Street Fighter EX 4 before they would give us SF4 or Alpha 4. The series has ended with Third Strike for all I care.Quote:

Whenever a machine rips me off, I usually punch it and try to get my money back. I can't count the number of times I've popped a quarter into a game or a payphone or a vending machine, had it eat my cash, gave it a few knocks, and had change pour out like a slot machine.
Of course that only works if it's the coin mechanism that's the problem, but I'll shut off an arcade machine if it's got busted joysticks or whatever. Might as well make it so everyone else can tell that it's broken.
Two things:Quote:

Why would an arcade operator fix a machine when the materials to fix it and the time it would take a tech. to fix it cost more than the increase in profits they would gain from a properly working machine? (Think about that, and how sad that statement really is.) I do not agree with this logic (if your service didn't blow so much maybe you would have more business!) but I can see the power of that line of thought.
Arcades are dead, but the operators made their own bed, for the most part.

You have no idea what you're talking about (except for the part about arcades being dead).Quote:

Swapping out the AV components or converting a cab to a new game requires some know-how, but anyone who can dress themselves and eat with utensils can learn how to do basic arcade maintenance.
You could draw the special attacks using the stylus. Unlimited possibilities.Quote:

fighting games on handhelds jus't don't work, plain and simple!
Nobody will do that, though, because the DS is trash and everybody knows Nintendo will be kicking it to the curb once GBA2 makes its debut in the near future.Quote:

I was there all the time... then I come back from college a few years later, and it's a gas station. Fuck.
But yeah, Boomers definitely doesn't give a fuck. Turning them off is a great idea, I used to tape up out of order signs but the employees would just take them down eventually =/
why Alpha 2 & not 3??
isn't SF Alpha 3 the pinnicale of every SF game in terms of a complete package
I'll just wait for the CPS2 emulator.
Fuck the entire Alpha series. Street Fighter is II and Third Strike. Nothing else is worth releasing on any platform.
i'm sorry that you don't own an NGCP and a copy of MotM. [/beating dead horse]Quote:

I know that feeling. After I got gypped by a Rolling Thunder machine one time, I started fiddling madly with the coin return and hit the jackpot. The sucker coughed up 12 tokens.Quote:
