Yeah I doubt it's Yuasa if she's living in the US lol. Must be another woman working at Capcom Japan. Whoever she is she's killing it so far lol.
I'll say that I recently heard about some surprisingly ambitious plans for a new Street Fighter and I remember thinking "It's weird to hear them talking about this now when it's supposedly been in development for so long."
A development reboot would fit in well with that.

but that was not his decision? they fucked up and needed money to even finish the game. sony was willing to provide it.

Me too, but out of SF, and I love KoF (I live in South America after all).
Good. Get some fresh minds running Street Fighter. In hindsight why the fuck did they give Ono so many chances???
Glad 6 got delayed anyway, don't release it so soon. Let 5's final season marinate a little longer.

This is a crap story. SfV would have released whether Sony paid for its exclusivity or not.
yea he doesnt seem to sure on who the person is.Yeah I don't think it's Yuasa. You can see her position as of April of this year here.
couldn't have said it better.
appreciate ono but he had to go especially after the sfv fiasco
Season 4 wasn't called the final season at any stage . yet the 5th season is called as such, the late decision can be the notion that the season is more spread out, but not it's entire existence in the first place.
it was absolutely planned, they even called it season V to go with SFV, it's really obvious to me, 5 years of support for the fifth game and adding 5 characters.
As much as I liked Ono as a personality he really has been fucking up for the better part of a decade now. SFIV was his prime and it's been all downhill since SFxT. I'll miss his trolling, but I won't miss his baffling decisions within the fighting game division.
It does feel like there's reason to hope again.

Going by that, she likely took up Ono's old spot, with Ono himself being relegated to an Executive Producer. Naga probably has the links regarding the hierarchy of Capcom Dev 2 that Capcom officially put up that has all of the Corporate Officers.Yeah I don't think it's Yuasa. You can see her position as of April of this year here.
So yeah I didn't see Ono at all on the stream, besides the Harada meme, but someone was saying the Capcom reps reactions were telling. Besides this news, has Ono been bad recently or something?
It's a tight enough team that saying it would identify who is talking. But it's a thing I feel like SF should have been doing to hit mainstream success a while ago.
nope, maximilian pretty much confirmed it. they wasted most of their budget on the original version of sfv. and capcom was in a very different position back then.
Take all the time you need.
This news kind of squashes the rumors of another Capcom fighter though.

Yes, we know. It would have released years later. They didn't want to wait that long, and had burned through development money at that point faffing around with this "realistic" style version.
Don't even know what this could mean aside from way more single player content at launch. They've already simplified the gameplay mechanics as much as they could.
I hope Akira's reception leads them to absorb most/all of the Rival School characters into SF. No reason they should just be abandoned.
Might have released many years later if at all and prob not much better than what the original launch had. They blew their money and were stuck.

So are we talking like KoF-esque teams along the lines of what SFV:AE's Team Battle mode did?
Feels like this would be a more expanded story mode or something like that. If it's hitting mainstream success, it wouldn't have anything to do with things that would get core FGC members excited short of guest characters.
Capcom would've found the money for the next iteration of one of its most well-known franchises. It's a crap story and everyone knows it. Granted if Sony drove up to my garage with hats full of money, why would I say no? Like I said though, it's a crap story to justify an anti-consumer practice. If it released later but multiplatform, no consumer would've lost out but would've gained instead.
Well, at least they are delaying it and not releasing a mess of a game again.
Wishing Ono all the best.
It's well known that SFV would have released in 2018 at the earliest if Sony didn't pay for the game.

Capcom back then was being almost solely carried by MH's success on portables, compared to now where they're kind of firing on all cylinders.
The Matt McMuscles video cites both named and unnamed sources to that effect as well. (skip to 4:42 if the embed doesn't)
So like the KOF NESTS era. You had teams of 4 but dedicate one of your characters into a "Striker" which you can call for assists. using a separate resource or meter in 2001's case. It led to some crazy shenanigans.
Gotta give it to SNK. They got experimental with their mainline series with Strikers and Tag Systems. I hope some of that innovation comes back someday.
Wasn't there a tweet earlier about Neo_G joking about working on SFV's new "battle mechanic"? I wonder if he's back in a consulting role for more than SFV but also SFVI
Ono seems like a nice person and all but if he is truly the big issue holding back on development I won't be too sad to see him go. Take all the time you need with this game Capcom.
Damn that smile on Nakayama was gone real fast lol.

I don't really think it matters whether or not they marketed Season 4 off the notion that it was the final season, particularly because whether or not it was the final season doesn't really preclude the fact that they could've still released content separate from it (and by the time Seth was released I'm pretty sure they would've already known whether S5 was a go or not to make a point of whether he's the last character out). Conversely with Season 5, they're drawing a line in the sand.
I can buy Capcom having development pains with SF6. I have a hard time believing Capcom would put Ono in a position of power again after he had already been demoted (as much as their fighting game division loves to pull off CAPCPOMS), and even moreso making direct decisions on how a game plays. That's just not what Ono does anyways.
Probably not. SFV wasn't well received and as far as I remember it had somewhat low shipping numbers right from the gate, before even poor word of mouth could factor in. And that aside, SFV never really exploded into the esports scene either the way Sony and Capcom might have thought. Although long term it made a recovery but by that time Sony was no longer sponsoring the Capcom Pro Tour.
It most definitely wasn't, seeing that this season is wrapping up in late 2021 and they're currently in the character design stages for Rose, the second character to be released. The literally said they started working on the season after Champion Edition was released.
They would've "found" the money sure, but they also would've had to delay the game considerably.
The idea of a team component in a mainline Street Fighter game really disgust me lol. Mainline SF should always be 1v1. None of this BS tag mechanic or having to fight another character after defeating the first one.
I like the character of Ono that's goofy and comes out asking people to throw the SRK pose. But if this is what he really wanted then I'm glad he's out. We'll see how the next person handles things.

Caught this at the end of Max's stream earlier.... guess this whole thread is gonna go some way towards explaining it?
