So no ESPN broadcast this year. I wonder what happened there.

Is the no Espn confirmed? I remember last time SFV was gonna be on TV and no TV guides had it coming on. They instead had another program display in that spot but if you turned to that channel, SFV was actually playing.

Would be nice if they gave a quick tease of Sagat tonight...I suppose that might take attention away from G though so I don't expect it.

Disney's deal with Capcom was over after finding out that their new fighting game is going to be DARKSTALKERS.
I had forgotten Disney owns ESPN. It all makes sense now. They don't want anything to do with Capcpom after the Mahvel debacle.

I wonder how true this actually is

We already know Sagat is coming, and it's gonna be a couple months, so a tease doesn't really do much.

I could see a new stage along with G, especially if he's tied into the whole gold theme with the AE update.

Sooo...does capcom need to start adding cross over characters? Or, at least be in serious consideration of them for SF6?

After T7's massive announcements and the reception to SFV's last year, I really hope Capcom is packing more than just Donald Trump cosplaying Lincoln.

No thanks. SF gives the guests, not takes.

Again, only a very select few characters from SNK would be acceptable, and that's only due to legacy.

I think crossing over with other Capcom franchises would be as far as a mainline SF would take it, a la Zeku. Maybe if C. Viper comes back she'd be even more like Captain Commando.

if SF gets crossover characters, it needs to be big titty ninjas.

Shame BBxTag already got to the most plentiful franchise for that.

I don't know, man. I knew Urien and Juri were coming to SFV but seeing snippets of them at the end of the Balrog trailer made my hype AF.

I wouldn't expect any season 4 announcements. They have Capcom Cup for that.

Sagat tease is reasonable though.

Oh, I guess I forgot about that. Fair enough.

Although didn't we already see them in the story mode by then anyway? I can't remember the timeline.

The only guest characters I would like to see are the ones from other Capcom fighting games that would fit. I don't see why a character like Ruby Heart can't be in the game, a pirate character would be cool. Or some rival school characters.

Sort of hoping Capcom has more than just G to show off. Even if it's not an SF related announcement

I'd hate to see guest characters like Negan, Jason and others in that vein in Street Fighter. However, I'd love to see characters like Terry, Geese, Iori, Rock, Kazuya and the like to get in.

Actually, thinking about it this doesnt seem to be like last year where Everyone but Capcom had some bomb ass reveals. Like the most hype and unexpected thing so far has been Tekken7 with Negan and to a lesser extent Terry in FEXL. Quite a few people knew about the Characters for Cross Tag when the data got mined.

Capcom only showing off G and maybe a teaser might not be that bad but I feel like people online are gonna make it out to be like Capcom suffered a hardcore dunking like last year.

Don't forget the SC reveals.

Nah. Story mode update was after. We got that early glimpse probably because they were going to be in story before their reveal trailers happened anyway.

Capcom is too broke or don't care about guest characters..

I think they just don't care to mix Street Fighter with non-Capcom properties, which is a mistake from a marketing perspective since that kind of crossover brings in a lot of additional eyes on the game.

Keep non-Capcom guest characters away from Street Fighter. The only guests that would get me hype to see in SF are ones that would never happen: Marvel, Arika, SNK. But even then I don't want it because then you open the pandora's box for corny shit like Walking Dead characters.

How about a Street Fighter game with well thought out mechanic where we don't see the same characters in every top 8?

I wondered if it's also about having complete control over the rights and revenue. I have no idea how guest IPs work in that regard with things like esports. Do they have to give up a percentage?
