    Capcom employees perhaps? Cant quite make out whats on that sheet of A4 just in front of the guy on the right but it would seem to be some sort of Streetfighter press release thing?

    I think they are appbank's staffs. Most probably running on preview codes.

    But appbank usually only uploads game of available stuffs. The only time they got games earlier than us was RE4, but that was due to accidental release on japanese appstore.

    Other than that, they've always showed games that are already on AppStore, rarely preview builds. Though it might be exception in this case as Capcom is a japanese company and they get a beta or something?

    Ive been checking hourly! lol. Nice to see some screenshots of the different characters on Appbank, though theyre obviously Capcom provided ones as in one shot Vega is called Vega and in the one above he's called M Bison...

    Im hoping it's released this week as im on holiday and have to go back to work next week :(

    Yeah Street Fighter names are one of the more confusing things in the gaming world (Final Fantasy version before FFVII as well). It's just confusing when you don't have any picture and talk about Vega, you don't know if it's the japanese or american Vega. Worst of all, it's not only name difference but they actually swap some names around, just pure mess.

    Yep i remember it well from the streetfighter 2 days,Balrog was the boxer in the U.S. Euro version but called M Bison in the Jap version, Vega with the claw was called Vega in the U.S. version but Balrog in the Jap version, And M bison was called M bison in the U.S. version but Vega in the Jap version! highly confusing!

    Yep, they had to do a name change for the U.S. to avoid a potential lawsuit involving the then-popular boxer Mike Tyson.

    The M. Bison character in the Japanese version is the boxer who looked pretty much like Mike Tyson. The name is obviously in reference to that and to avoid getting sued, they did a name shuffle - M. Bison -> Balrog, Balrog -> Vega, Vega -> M.Bison :)

    SF4 looks pretty good on the iPhone btw :)

    Vega suits the quick, finessed claw fighter more than Balrog anyway.

    i really like the street fighter games. I can't believe they made one for the iPod. Would it be possible for me to beta test?

    Unfortunately :rolleyes:.

    Honestly though, why do some people think they have the ability to do whatever they want.

    So is Vega (claw and mask) on there? He is my favorite Street Fighter character. Haven't played one since the SNES though.

    Doing nothing of importance.
    Somewhere
    Nah... Neither is Akuma... :( Well, at least the included characters are cool, with the exception of Chun Li (I seem to be the only person who doesn't like her... Idk, she just annoys me.)

    I would have loved T. Hawk to be included.

    Anyway, I doubt they'll pass up the chance to get all of our money with in-app purchases.
