But this isn't going to be like the old days where we go on and charge you full price or $75 for each consecutive Street Fighter game in the series. This will not be a full-priced game. I'm not going to promise you a $5 game or anything, but it's going to be a price that's appropriate to the amount of content you're getting. We're not going back to the "dark ages" where we'd just tack another word onto the Street Fighter series and expect you to pay in full again. We'll make sure we get it to everyone as cheap as we can.

Yeah, it'll only cost $49.99 instead of $59.99. Nyaa

WATCH THE ONO INTERVIEW!

Witness the sleek, evil beauty of Juri...

... then listen for it...

DARKSTALKERS. COULD. BE. NEXT.


She's coming soon!
...How 'bout you?

IGN:  Will there be a new theme song for Super IV?

Ono: Yeah you don't have to worry about being indestructible anymore, haha. We're fixing that. Speaking of lessons learned, when looking at something like this for the first time your assumptions might be that this is some kind of downloadable pack or something, and to be honest with you that's not going to be. There's just too much going on with this release and too much content.

But this isn't going to be like the old days where we go on and charge you full price or $75 for each consecutive Street Fighter game in the series. This will not be a full-priced game. I'm not going to promise you a $5 game or anything, but it's going to be a price that's appropriate to the amount of content you're getting.

We'll make sure we get it to everyone as cheap as we can.

*AWESOME!*

_________________________

IGN: That'd rock for sure. So back to the characters: Will the unlockable fighters from IV start unlocked, or will players need to go back in and unlock them all again?

Ono: Yeah you might be happy to hear that there are no unlockable characters in the game this time around. It might be fun to play through over and over and say "Hey what did I unlock this time?" and so on, but we're going to sacrifice that this time around for the sake of having everyone playable and accessible from the start, right out of the box. There are other ways to keep people playing, other things to unlock – it doesn't have to be characters – and we realize that's an area where we may have caused some unnecessary frustration in the long run, so we pulled back on that a little bit and thought of other ways to keep you playing.

IGN: How will stages change with the new game? New stages, stage tweaks… it looks like there are some minor changes in even the stage we can see behind you right now.

Ono: Yes there are indeed differences already in the background, yes. As far as new stages I can't say too much about it, but I can say it'd be strange to not add in new content on that front. I'll leave it at that so I don't get into trouble. The one thing by the way I forgot to mention about Juri that I forgot to mention is that she has kind of a sexy edge to her – she's not a cheesecake character; she won't go out and pole dance or something – but she has this sinister/sexy feel to her that you don't normally see in the Street Fighter series, so that's kind of another first for that character. And of course it'll all be up to the ESRB as to how far we can go with that, haha.

**AWESOME-ER!!**

_________________________

IGN: Will all the story modes for all the characters be different this time around then?

Ono: Yeah you can actually look forward to brand new openings and endings for all the characters. You know we have paid attention to all the reviews and we know people weren't exactly thrilled about the less-than-stellar quality of the openings and endings in IV, and we're man enough to admit that, and as an apology we're going to remake those, and also some of the lines during the fight and rival match-ups will be added and changed. While that hasn't been easy to localize – it wasn't exactly an "easy task" – so that's all-new, and you can certainly look forward to that in the new game.

***AWESOME-EST!!!***

 They're going to fix the endings? Awesome. Just don't fucking rush them and make them work with the plot they establish.

Hey $10 is $10. That would totally work for me.

Anyway just watched the Ono interviews over on the Street Fighter blog, awesome stuff. I really like this Ono guy. Soooo can't wait for SSFIV and I'm really hoping that Darkstalkers gets made and will soon follow.
