Capcom Has No Current Plans To Bring New Street Fighter Games To Wii U

ultra_street_fighter_4

Capcom producer Yoshinori Ono previously confirmed that Ultra Street Fighter IV won’t be coming to Wii U. Ono is now saying that the company has no current plans to bring any upcoming Street Fighter game to Nintendo’s latest console. Older Street Fighter titles, however, are confirmed for release on Wii U’s Virtual Console. Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers launches August 22 on the service.

        1. …Sorry but that’s extremely stupid… It’s people like you that start useless flame wars between games… So, you think that if they do have a new installment of a street fighter game on wiiu, is because they’re picking a fight with SSB?… What the hell is with you?

      1. LOL, they suck in my opinion. We all have our own likes and dislikes. I just vented as I am pissed at something else.

      2. Some people just hate the game, in my opinion I think the game sucks so badly. I’d prefer Mortal Kombat which is a far better game. Also, did you know Street Fighter’s Creator chickened out on making a SF Vs MK game because he didn’t want to see his characters get killed and maned.

        Mortal Kombat should actually be the one at EVO.

        1. Yes he did, he didn’t feel like SF characters were meant for fatalities and such…
          He did also say that it will definitely happen someday >_<

        2. I’m the total opposite. I like Street Fighter, but I absolutely can’t stand Mortal Kombat and, on the same vein, Injustice. And MK being better than SF isn’t a fact, it’s your opinion.
          And Ono (who isn’t actually the creator of the franchise, he only made SF4) didn’t ”chicken out”, he just said that the two universes wouldn’t fit each other, as characters in SF fight with sportsmanship (for the most part), and MK characters just kill each other.

          Also Mortal Kombat IS at EVO…they play ALL fighting games during that event…well most of them at least. It wouldn’t have the amount of popularity it currently has if they only played one game a year.

  1. Marvel vs capcom 3…….. Marvel vs capcom 3 Ultimate.
    Street Fighter 4….. Street Fighter 4 3D edition………. Ultra Street Fighter 4…….. Capcom is soooo money hungry.

  2. not gonna blame them. i would refuse to bring my game to the wii u at this time too. its risky and non profitable.

    1. From what developers have said, it’s very easy to port games to the Wii U. There’s no real excuse if all they need to do is sell 20 000-ish copies (which just about every game on the Wii U has done) to not port to the Wii U, even if it is just an e-shop release.

  3. Seriously, are the sales numbers from both Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate and Resident Evil: Revelations HD so disappointing that Capcom is just “jumping ship” with Wii U games…? If someone could post the sales of those 2 games on Wii U so far I’ll really apreciate it…

    1. Monster hunter 3 ultimate wii U
      North America: 0.09m/22.1%
      + Europe: 0.08m/19.5%
      + Japan: 0.21m/53.3%
      + Rest of the World: 0.02m/5.0%
      = Global 0.40m

    2. Resident evil revelations HD
      North America: 0.01m/27.0%
      + Europe: 0.01m/26.9%
      + Japan: 0.02m/39.5%
      + Rest of the World: 0.00m /6.6%
      = Global 0.05m

        1. Those numbers are very good considering the Wii U only sold 4 million units. You can’t expect Monster Hunter 3 U to sell millions upon millions of copies if the install base isn’t there yet.

  4. Capcom used to be one of the greatest third-party game companies there was. But lately they’re really starting to SUCK! I wouldn’t doubt it if they eventually became the next THQ.

    I like SF games, not as much as SMASH but this dissapoints me a little. I was thinking now that Nintendo and Sega are in good relationship maybe there is possibility to see new VF game on WiiU. I just dont get it no SC no SF, are the devs so afraid of upcomin Smash that they dont have balls to put any other fightin games on WiiU. They probably saw the trailer and crapped their pants and were like “OH NO SMASH IS COMIN!! What do we do no one cares about our games after that trailer. I know lets not bring our games to WiiU lets show that we cant compete against 1st party titles from Nintendo”, which obviously is true that they cant compete against N titles but its annoying that they dont even try, except from Sega and PG. And anyway look at what position Sega is now on Nintendo system, Sonic games do better on Nintendo etc. its because Sega actually supported and bringed games and made them popular on Nintendo, why other devs dont do that??????

  6. fuck offf Capcom, fuck off Wii U! It’s my best game! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

  7. CAPCOM, YOU ARE DISGRACEFUL TO THE WII U, I HATE YOU!! YOU ARE THE WORST COMPANY FOR NOT GIVING OUT STREET FIGHTER GAMES FOR THE WII U, Please, Capcom, I want new Street Fighter games for the Wii U, please, PLLLEEEEEEAAAAAASSSSSEEEE!!!!?

  8. With the Wii, Nintendo explained that they were aiming at a different target group. This because they thought that everyone was competing for making the best racing car but that it didn’t necessary mean that it would fit for everyone. So they decided to make a family car with medium specs.

    Now – since then, the market has been quite clear on this case and to distinguish it even more we now see the intentional gimped version of games and/or completely missing 3rd party titles (which will propbably increase).

    The key goal here is to make it very clear that you should at least own 2 consoles to be satisfied.

    ???

    Profit

    /At least, this is what I think is the case***

    1. Nintendo fans need to accept that many third party devs simply aren’t going to release anything on Wii U. They should drop their ridiculous “Nintendo only” mentality and buy a second console if they want to play all of the amazing games that are out on other current tech consoles, and soon, next gen tech too.

      I don’t accept that finances are a restriction. If they could afford a Wii U then they could easily have afforded a PS3 or 360.

  9. If Capcom keeps this crap up, they’re going to win the next WORST GAME COMPANY award, which EA won 2 years in a row. I don’t know what stick they got stuck up their butts, but I wish they’d pull it out and become the great company they once was. And STOP IGNORING THE Wii U!

  10. I’m not fond of this series, but still.. I’d like to at least see them try to port it over. I know people only prefer it on xbox for frames. How’re we to know the Wii U won’t support a stable frame rate if we don’t try?

  11. We dont need SF on Wii U whith fucking easy mode on the gamepad. Destroyed my 3DS copy 2 years ago and flushed it in the toilet. We want Monster Hunter Frontier here.

  12. I think Microsoft paid some of these developers to avoid the Wii U. Hell they took Rare ware away from Nintendo. I think Microsoft knows their shit box has nothing on PS4’s future 3rd party tittles and Wii UK’s exclusives. And since 3rd party developers like Sony, Microsoft can’t take them away from PS4 but they can on Wii U. I blame Microsoft!

  13. So understand dont waste your time always searching for those wasted 3rd party games. Face up make your stand and realize you will be playing golden 1st party games.

  14. I have a feeling that if these 3rd party companies keep this crap up, everybody will just pirate all their games. Because there are some people who aren’t going to buy another console just to get certain games that for some stupid reason don’t come to the Wii U.

  15. That’s terrible news. Now you’re forcing me to buy a XBOXONE. I didn’t plan on buying another console, but I must have Street Fighter.

    1. If you have a PS3 or Xbox360 you should be able to play that game….this isn’t coming out on next gen consoles.

  16. PSU(Playstations+WiiU)

    Putting a Street Fighter game on Wii U is like taking kid to candy store…….lol smh man Capcom tripping

  17. PSU(Playstations+WiiU)

    Even Injustice runs and plays good on Wii U smh I don’t see why they don’t wanna do that…….Street Fighter IV:3d edition sold pretty well on the 3ds and that was one of the main launch titles

  18. Sad! Would’ve been nice to play on my Wii U. I guess I won’t be playing it at all, because I sure as heck won’t be buying this on my PS3!

  19. I have SF IV in 360, i play the game almost for a week… then i never playit again… Why i will cry if dont come to my Wii U? Just wait until 2019 fo SF V and then i willl cry for it but not for SF IV ultra, im bored of this game already.

  20. This title is complete bullshit. “Don’t have any current plans to bring SSIV titles to the Wiiu” doesn’t= “Will not ever bring SSIV to the Wiiu.” Way to cause unnecessary drama.

  21. PSU(Playstations+WiiU)

    They really should give this a shot on the Wii u specially since they said there not gone be making a new street fighter up until 2018….smh like seriously like who want to wait for a game anyway

  24. Wow, recycled news.
    Seriously, we had the exact same article a few weeks ago.
    And to this article, I still say ”whatever”; fighting games fans already have a console that can play this game anyways.
