Publisher Capcom is considering one or more of its in-development properties for release on the Nintendo Wii, corporate officer Christian Svensson revealed on the company's official forums.

Responding to complaints that few of Capcom's efforts on the PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 are also en route to the Wii, Svennson said that "one or two" titles in development at the company's North American-based studio Capcom Entertainment Incorporated are being considered for release on the Wii.

"We'd like to see how they do on their initial target systems before doubling down on additional SKUs," Svennson noted.

Capcom April Fools' Joke: Sheng Long in SF4

Apr 01, 2008 6:51pm CST tags: Street Fighter 4, April Fools, Capcom
In what might be today's most recursive April Fools gag, Capcom has revealed character art for the infamous Sheng Long on its official blog, touting him as an unlockable character in Street Fighter IV.

The update emerged from a translation of the latest entry on the Japanese Street Fighter IV blog, where project manager Natsumi Shiozawa issued details on the character's appearance in the upcoming fighter.

The roots of the Sheng Long gag stretch back to 1992, when the character was introduced in EGM's April issue as a secret boss in Capcom's Street Fighter II. It ranks among the most infamous April Fools gag in the history of gaming, sparking a tradition that would bring woe to game journalists for years to come.

According to EGM, if the player could complete the game untouched while playing as Ryu, Sheng Long would replace M. Bison as the final boss in Street Fighter II. In his post today, Shiozawa referenced similar conditions to attain Sheng Long within Street Fighter IV.

The whole supposed existence of Sheng Long ties back to an old mistranslated victory quote, in which Ryu would proclaim "You must defeat Sheng Long to stand a chance" instead of "You must defeat my Dragon Punch to stand a chance" after winning a battle.

GDC 08: Street Fighter 4 Impressions

Feb 21, 2008 3:00am CST tags: GDC, GDC 08, Street Fighter 4, Street Fighter
Stepping away from lectures and keynotes during Game Developers Conference today, I was able to put some time into an incomplete arcade build of Street Fighter IV. In short, it was very pretty and lots of fun.
It is truly a thing of beauty. While screenshots may capture the game's core appearance and some goofy facial expressions, mere snapshots cannot convey all the nuances contained within its presentation; the silky smooth animation, the billowing of fabric, the subtle environment destruction.

Oh, and the game is only halfway complete.
