Super Street Fighter IV

Super Street Fighter IV is a 2-dimensional fighting game, and is an update of Street Fighter IV. It features additional characters and character tweaks based on community feedback. It also features an improved online mode. It was released as a standalone game for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on April 27th, 2010. There is currently no word on a Windows version and an early statement said that it would not be released in arcades. It is now confirmed that it will be released in arcades, exclusively in Japan. It is also confirmed that Yun and Yang will be included in this arcade version. A 3D version is also in developement for the upcoming Nintendo 3DS, titled Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition.

Development
In September 2009, Capcom began hinting at an update of Street Fighter IV. Leading up to its official announcement, teasers and leaked images pointed to a Super Street Fighter IV, featuring T. Hawk and Dee Jay, the two fighters from Super Street Fighter II who were not included in Street Fighter IV, and were long expected to be added to Street Fighter IV as downloadable content.

On September 28, 2009, Capcom officially announced the game, revealing it to be a standalone title. According to developer Yoshinori Ono, this is because the changes, which comprises of ten additional characters, improved character tweaks based on community feedback, and an improved online mode, were too extensive to release as DLC. As a compromise, the game was released at a lower price point, and there are two extra colors for fans who already own Street Fighter IV. It was released for $40, cheaper than the usual $60 or more for Xbox/PS3 games.

Gameplay Features
Super Street Fighter IV is rebalanced, with many top-tier characters having their abilities slightly "nerfed" and low-tier characters receiving upgrades . Several new game modes have been introduced:
 * Team Battle Mode, where 1-4 players can take on another 1-4 online. The first players on each team face off, and the winner faces the next player on the opposing team, until all players from a team have been eliminated.


 * Endless Battle Mode, where players queue to challenge the current "King of the Hill", with losers being sent to the back of the queue, resembling the "I Got Next" system that operates in the typical local arcade. Players who are not currently playing can comment on the match in progress.


 * The Replay Channel, which differs from the old Replay Mode, allowing anyone to save up to 150 replays and share them with friends online, as well as upload them to the leaderboard if their Battle Points (BP) are high enough. Players can then watch replays of matches from around the world, even being able to see the inputs as the players pressed them. Replays saved to the hard drive can also be viewed in slow motion. Replays are categorized according to the characters fighting, the categories being "Originals", "Alpha", "Turbo and III", "Newcomers" and "Boss".


 * Bonus Stages in Single-Player Arcade Mode, where the player races against the clock to destroy a car, or attempts to destroy falling barrels. The player can choose to skip these by turning them off in options; they can also challenge them outside of Arcade Mode.

Every character are now able to select between two Ultra Combos. All 25 original characters are able to choose from three outfits: their default, their old DLC costumes, and a brand-new DLC outfit (to be released). New characters have a default costume and one DLC outfit. 6 of the original 25 fighters (C. Viper, Cammy, Chun-Li, Guile, Ryu & Seth) all have second rivals, in addition to their first rival. The player is able to select which rival they wish to face by whether or not they press all three kick buttons when the "Now! Fight your rival!" message appears. The other characters have only one rival, even though they were supposed to due to having a ultra combo video to include their second rival. The new 10 characters also only have one rival.
 * Reworked Tournament Mode similar to that in the original SF4, which was released as downloadable content. The mode supports upcoming "Capcom Cup" tournament events.

Story
The events of the game appear to take place at the same time as those of the original Street Fighter IV. When combined, both games give the full story of the International Fighting Tournament held by Seth and S.I.N..

Arcade Edition
An arcade version is currently in development for release in Japan. New features include the addition of two new characters (Yun and Yang) as well as many gameplay rebalances. Currently, there are no announced plans to release the arcade edition outside of Japan.

3D Edition
A 3D version is also currently in development for the upcoming Nintendo 3DS handheld. Planned features include true 3D graphics, online play, anonymous local wireless play, and a "Chance Encounter" feature whereby battles take place between figures you have collected and figures that another person with Super Street Fighter IV game data on their 3DS has collected will automatically "fight" as you pass each other by, even if you aren't playing your 3DS, and even if you don't have the game card inserted. How this feature is to be implemented is not yet fully understood, however it is known that "the more you fight, the more figures you earn". Graphical changes include the ability to play the game from an altered camera angle (for example, from the left-hand side). The touch screen will also be used for easy use of any attack the player chooses to map to one of four touchscreen buttons. The game will feature both expert and beginner input systems.

Tournament Mode
On June 15th 2010, Capcom released new DLC for the game, including character balancing, tweaks to gameplay, and a further improved tournament mode.

The following gameplay aspects were fixed:
 * Fei Long's infinite combo loop against Juri was removed.
 * Unblockable Ultras were fixed. This is where you throw a fireball and the Ultra flash made it so your opponent could not block.
 * Guy can no longer be able to be thrown while he's crouching and in hit stun animation. A bug made it possible to combo throw moves while he was in this state.
 * Ibuki's invincibility window on wake up -- under certain circumstances -- was too long.
 * The 2nd hit of Ibuki's Spinning Kicks missing Chun-Li was fixed.
 * Counter hit damage on M. Bison's Ultra 2 was too low.
 * Sagat's Angry Charge was not working properly in some instances (EX-Tiger Uppercut doesn't get damage upgrade in some cases).

Alt. Costume series 3
On July 24th 2010, Capcom announced the upcoming release of an additional, third series of alternate costumes coming fall 2010. , confirmed for October 26th
