So this has become a regular routine with Capcom adding more fighters tot he iPhone version of Street Fighter IV. This time around the new warrior is E. Honda. In the end do we even care or are we just waiting for the 3DS version of Super?

It wasn’t that long ago that Street Fighter IV was released for iPhone platform and the game is already getting updates. This time it’s in the form of a new character, Cammy. (more…)

Who would have ever thought this day would come. Street Fighter IV is now available for the iPhone platform. That means for the price of $9.99 you can play Street Fighter on your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.

Though I’ll remain skeptical until I get my hands on it, I heard that it’s pretty good.

I’m not a iPhone owner. I do own an iPod Touch but I’m hoping that the new SDK for Palm Pre, which lets developers transfer apps over to the Pre easily, means I may be playing Street Fighter IV on my phone too one day.

You can grab the Street Fighter IV game on the iTunes Store here.

Here’s the [Japenese] trailer for Street Fighter IV for iPhone. Does it make you want it more now?

When Street Fighter IV was announced for iPhone it was met with a collective “…why?”. Not only did people think there was not much of a demand for the game, most couldn’t understand how it would be played on a device with no buttons anyway. The video below will either convince you you reinforce what you already felt.

The game will drop in March at a $9.99. Still don’t know if I’m gonna spring for this one. We’ll see.

Are you effing kidding me?! Street Fighter IV is coming out for iPhone, iPod Touch and the iPad. Yeh, you read that right. According to IGN, Capcom has been working for several months to shrink Street Fighter IV small enough that they could get it into an iPhone. Of course since there in no stick or pad on the iPhone, the game will rely on an on-screen simulated joystick.

As for characters, Ken and Ryu are the only confirmed names thought Capcom has said there will be a number of new and classic fighters available. Though a complete cast from the consoles is unlikely.

This likely a good move on Capcom’s part as iPhone seems to be developers’ platform of choice these days but I can’t really understand why skip the Wii, DS and PSP? Actually now that I think about I remember Capcom saying the Wii wasn’t powerful enough to run SFIV. Yet the iPhone is?
