They have a spotty track record, but with Capcom they're generally accurate most of the time.
It seems like you can trace a lot of this back to outside of Street Fighter, since Deep Down (and, subsequently, the Panta Rhei engine) were all on his watch, once poised to be the flagship for Capcom this gen, only to be taken out back quietly and shot. Seems like he's some really severe management issues after being promoted and there came to be just one screw-up too many.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was KoF-like, along the lines of what SFV:AE already has with Team Battle. In fact, I'd wager that said Team Battle mode was to test the feature out ahead of Ono's idea for SFVI.
He's been leaking a bunch of Resident Evil stuff accurately.
This time they actually got rid of the problem (Ono), so I'm not sure about that.
uh what? this shows the exact opposite
Ono seemingly lost any real power he once had & is basically a mouthpiece these days.
pretty much the only credit he deserves is being stubborn about brining back street fighter to the benefit of the FGC. But he's made mostly terrible decisions after that.
They are indeed. Big Capcom insider and even a user here! Username is simply Dusk Golem
Yes after clearly messing about for ages, realising they fucked up again, then scrambling to release more characters for SFV in panic.
Same.
Thanks, gotcha.
Jeez, a moderator even. I legitimately had no idea, haha.
