Street Fighter IV to Hit PS3, 360, and PC, Not Wii

Many different sources are reporting that the new Street Fighter game will be hitting the PS3, XBox 360, and PC but not the Wii. "Expected to release this fiscal year and now confirmed for PS3, 360 and PC, the next iteration of the genre-establishing fighting series renders characters and environments in stylized 3D, while the game plays in the classic Street Fighter 2D perspective 'with additional 3D camera flourishes'. Street Fighter IV will include the original cast of Street Fighter II along with new brawlers including female super-spy Crimson Viper, lucha libre wrestler El Fuerte and mixed martial artist Abel."

"Hasn't Street Fighter 2 been released on Wii Virtual Console?"

Three times.

As a Wii-only owner, I have no interest in buying another console. In fact, the Wii is the first console I've bought since the SNES. If game publishers don't want to publish for my machine, they don't want my sale. Nintendo has already made a fortune off me (3 wiimotes, 2 nunhucks, 1 classic controller, Wii Fit, Zapper + 4 first/second party games and the 3 bundled games) and I've bought 5 third party games. I'm still having fun with the games I already have and there are plenty more that I want sitting on the shelf in the store or on the way over the next few month.

If you want my dollars, make your game work on my console. Ditto if you want my computer game dollars - make a Linux version or chances are strong I'm not buying (I've bought about 5 Linux games for every Windows game over the last 10 years since Loki first came about). They're my dollars, earn them by giving me what I want or lose them if you think I'm not profitable enough, just don't expect me to fork out tons of cash to buy another system plus accessories to give you money.
