At the Street Fighter Fight Club event in San Francisco earlier this evening, Capcom announced that Street Fighter IV is available for the iPhone--starting right now. For $10, owners of Apple's portable platform can engage in arcade-style action while on the go. Just like in the arcade, though, there is no free play, as Capcom has not created a "lite" version for players unsure about joining the fight.
Having played the iPhone version a few weeks ago, I can tell you that while the game may carry a "high for the iPhone" price tag, it's definitely got the content to carry it, delivering eight characters, arcade and multiplayer modes, and numerous control methods for varying skill levels. It takes a bit of getting used to, but there's likely a way to play for you. It's an entirely new control platform, so purists might want to check their hang-ups at the door. I never thought I'd be okay with throwing a hadouken with any movement besides the quarter-circle forward motion--mind you, that is still an option. The iPhone version made me realize I'm okay with relearning old moves. See you on the streets!
