Capcom is releasing Street Fighter IV on Apple iPhone and iPod Touch

On February 15, 2010, Capcom announced that it is going to release its Street Fighter IV on Apple iPhone and iPod Touch. The game will be released in March and would come with its popular characters and some new characters. Each of the fighters will have their complete sets of moves including the ultra moves. Capcom will not sacrifice any of the visual affects or overall settings of the game for the sake of small screen. The biggest challenge for Capcom is to provide a good controlling system on Apple’s button-less device. IGN reports:

Now, hardcore gamers coming into Street Fighter IV with lofty expectations are understandably concerned about whether or not Capcom's virtual pad will offer the same, precise controls needed to truly master the game. That's fair because to competitive players, Street Fighter is a contest of exactness and finesse.

The Street Fighter IV will come with a number of “control configurations” out of which, the player will find his/her favorite settings. The game will also have a “Dojo mode” so that the player can practice the game and get used to the setting before heading out for a tournament or a multiplayer match. You can play with another player over Bluetooth just like the arcade or console edition.
