Even though the idea of Street Fighter IV on Wii has been teased a few times, the possibility has yet to materialize. Now Capcom appears to be moving on. News regarding a new Street Fighter title is on the way, as the official blog for SFIV received an update. There’s a small note about a sequel, in which Natsuki Shiozawa states that there will be an announcement very soon. Although I’m not confident this game will end up on the Wii, there is still a chance since, obviously, there has not been a discussion of platforms involved yet. Perhaps we’ll hear something about the sequel at TGS.

Nintendo removes Game & Watch collection from Club Nintendo

Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 2 Comments

That’s right – The Game & Watch collection has been removed from Club Nintendo. And unfortunately, Nintendo has yet to add any additional prizes. You may remember that Denise Kaigler teased exclusive artwork for this month, but that reward has yet to go live on the site. I assume that it should be up sometime in the next two weeks if Denise plans on keeping her word!

Thanks to Kellen H for the news tip!
