I also found it interesting that AM-Net says that Konami Digital Entertainment has something to do with KOFXIII.
#STREET FIGHTER 4 TAITO TYPE X2 FULL#
King of Fighters XIII will be released in July as a full unit and August as a kit (the HDD is listing for 198,000¥ which currently = 2095.90USD, the full kit about $1000 more). Sometimes it’s helpful to look at Capcom’s competition in this arena as another fighter game we mentioned recently does have a release date and price and I wonder if this game had anything to do with Capcom’s decision. No price is listed yet but we’ll keep an eye on it. UPDATE: When it comes to a release date, AM-Net is listing the game as a “Winter 2010” release.
We do have to applaud the fans for being vocal enough about this to convince Capcom that it would be worth a release as it just seems out of place to have a major Street Fighter release not grace the arcade. They could always pleasantly surprise us and release it at a point where we see other fighters out of Japan (say a kit in the $2000USD range) and offer a version that lets two players use one cabinet (making it much more attractive to locations that need to consider space and costs). As for the price, none has been announced but I’m pessimistically guessing that it won’t be reasonable, as we saw with SFIV.
A couple of weeks ago we reported that Capcom would bring out Super Street Fighter IV (which had previously been announced as a console-only title) to arcades if the fans demanded it – and demanded it they have as SFIV producer Yoshinori Ono announced that SSFIV would get an arcade release at the Japanese National SFIV tournament this year.Ĭhances of it getting an “official” release outside of Japan are pretty low but as long as operators can import the title then it’s certain that a few will take the plunge despite that.
