SOTA: Street Fighter Revolutions Series 1

Hot on the heels of some early pics sent to online retailers, SOTA now releases official pics of the IN SCALE, next wave of Street Fighter figures.

The wait is almost over...especially for those of you wishing to complete your Street Fighter 2 lineups! SOTA's Street Fighter Revolutions Series 1 is set to include...

  • R. Mika
  • Zangief
  • Dhalsim
  • Honda

    SOTA adds this info...

    "We do not have final approved Zangief photos so we have not included pictures of him. Please ignore any previous photos of SF Revolutions that are circulating as these were not authorized to be released by SOTA."

    Looks like SOTA is ready to get back on track with building your Street Fighter universe! How many more waves can they crank out? That's up to you.

    Capcom Comments on Guile Character Concerns

    Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

    Backlash leads to Street Fighter II HD Remix alterations.

    By Andrew Hayward, 06/22/2007

    As it has done for the past few weeks, Capcom posted new character sketches from the forthcoming Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix on Monday. Though we saw a handful of mixed responses to Udon's new design in the comments section of our news story, the original post on the Capcom Digital blog was bombarded with more than 100 responses, many of them negative.

    Another post was added to the blog today, this time with a message from Producer Rey Jimenez about the backlash and what they plan to do about it:

    "Well it was a pretty rough week for Guile. Reaction to his new artwork ranged pretty widely. Thanks for all the feedback. We are definitely listening. I won't go into specifics, but we are considering revising some of his look based on the reactions I've been reading on the blog and many of the boards I keep up with."

    Jimenez noted that not every suggestion could be taken into consideration, but said that the game is "coming along marvelously." Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix is expected via the Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Store later this year. We'll continue to bring the art updates as long as you promise to keep (creatively) criticizing them.

    Capcom's CPS-3 arcade board decrypted at last!


    It wouldn't take too many minutes of perusing the archives here to realize that we're fans of obscure emulation feats, and this one certainly ranks pretty high up there. Apparently, Capcom's CPS-3 arcade system board has finally been cracked, which means that the next logical step of bringing titles such as Red Earth, Street Fighter III, and JoJo to the emulation realm has already begun. A post over at Haze's Mame WIP page notes that the challenge has been duly accepted, and we're hoping that it won't be too much longer before success is found. Of course, it sounds like this will not be an exceptionally easy task, but at least half the battle has already been won.

    Too funny!

    Almost 2 years after the release of the XBOX 360, finally some street fighter fans can rejoice. Street Fighter Anniversary Edition is finally backwards compatible with the 360. This makes Street Fighter 3rd Strike, and Anniversary Edition playable offline and online. Hop online and test your skills against some of the best players in the nation. Hopefully this is good news and we can get some more Street Fighter games playable on the 360.

    After our first success with the backwards compatible campaign we did the first time, it is time for part 2. Lets see if we can get Capcom vs SNK2 and Marvel vs Cacpcom 2 backwards compatible now. It only takes 5 minutes to send the team an email , so don’t delay, as the team will probably be starting more in the upcoming weeks.

    To mail the team, contact backcomp@microsoft.com and leave them a message saying you want your favorite Capcom games backwards compatible! GOGOGO!

    Could It Be? Could Another Street Fighter Be In The Works?

    Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

    As far as rumors go, a genuine Street Fighter sequel (and not just a rehash or a “Turbo, Hyper, Awesome, Special Edition” slapped at the top of it) is a pretty big thing. And if the rumor mongers that be are correct, we might be seeing a sequel to the series that Ryu built not too far off into the future.

    According to Kotaku.com, when asked about the possibilities of an upcoming Street Fighter sequel, an Udon Comics spokesperson at a San Diego Comics Convention said that something was in the works. And then, to add Gummy Bears to the ice cream, a Capcom representative apparently said that the company had not forgotten its fans and that something is definitely in the works.

    ToyFare Exclusive Street Fighter Dan Action Figure Limited to 2500 (Advance Order)

    What a crybaby! Dan Hibiki may be the inventor of the "Strongest Style" of martial arts, but he's nowhere as great as he claims. Hence the interchangeable head on this ToyFare Exclusive figure, showing him blubbering like a little girl with a skinned knee. Still, he can be a badass, hence the one-handed fireball accessory and the interchangeable taunting and thumbs-up hands.

    Item is due to ship by Late August, 2007.
