Did you gloss over this nobody seems to care that one of the greatest fighting games of the 90s is back & getting ported to the switch of all consoles,will this signal other developers to port more hardcore fighters!?
This is insane if you told me when the PS4 launched that I'd be able to play ANY fighting game in my pocket you're crazy!
too bad it's not Super Street Fighter IV instead [spoiler]
Schizo
one of the greatest fighting games of the 90s is back
I can already play 3rd Strike on Fightcade on my PC for free, nice try.
Who was asking for SF6 on switch2? Everyone's playing it on ps5.
I don't have a PS5
I'm holding out buying it on pc because I'd rather play it on the switch
it has less latency delay on switch 2
game key card lmao
Nobody is playing this actually, lol
Nobody is playing anything on PS5 except Fortnite and Roblox.
nobody cares because that game is fucking ugly
Street Fighter 6 Years 1-2 Fighters Edition
That's a dumber titled than Turbo HD Remix
in my pocket
the pocket in question
years
Is there more DLC planned?
I thought everyone they wanted to add was added years back after launch?
game key card
God I fucking hate it so much. What's worse is that they are pushing that shit on the bravely default remaster, and that thing is only like 11 fucking gigs.
Cqpcom did the same thing with the fucking Mega Man collection on the Switch, it will only get worse from now.
Wait wasn't that only the second megaman X collection?
The classic collection had the NES games on the cart and you had to download the others. It was a 1GB cart IIRC.
Nintendies are going to be playing Smash. Not ESG Fighter.
Street Fighter 6 team had to waste 6/8 months to make the port for that shitty manchildren's tablet meanwhile we were waiting for more content
Great.
But why?
We don't even know if cross platform play will be an actual thing?
Log off from Anon Babble sometimes, everyone outside this poorfag on toasters/nintendo cucks infested shithole has a ps5.
Did you gloss over this?
It literally looks better than every version but the PS5. Yes, even the fucking Xbox Series X somehow. Not to mention the Series S. Also has less input lag than PS5. It's the base game + all content released so far + some exclusive features + handheld for 50€. They're going to sell a lot of copies.
Not to defend this bullshit, but does it really matter for an essentially-live-service game like SF6? You're going to have to download the whole game like 3 times over by the time all the seasons have had their run by virtue of the way modern fighting game patch cycles run.
No I don't understand what you mean because Switch 1 already had fucking all of them, 3DS had Street Fighter 4, Wii U had Tekken Tag 2, Switch 2 will have Street Fighter 6, so what the fuck are you going on about
Nobody gives a shit about 6. 5 killed all goodwill.
MegaMan Legacy Collection only had Legacy 1 on the cart plus a code for 2, same thing for X Legacy Collection
The same as PS5 and Xbox: you have to install on the system to play. And better than Steam since you can resell.
They're going to sell a lot of copies
Nintendo main audience are kids, roasties and americans (aka manchildrens) so i don't know if "a lot" is the correct term.
install is not downloading.
You guys sure love spreading fake news

This primarily seems for the Japanese market to be honest. SF6 is disproportionately popular there and the Switch 2 is probably actually relevant for expanding the user base. Especially with the special cheap Japan only Switch 2.
It's a weird and dumb thing but it's not the gigantic evil people are making it out to be. You can still rent, trade, sell game key cards, they don't lock an install to your system exclusively, and third-party publishers that were spooked enough by the cartridge size limits and budget needed for their production can basically bypass that problem altogether with the cheapest possible option, meaning more publisher activity than their piddly bullshit on the normal Switch. It doesn't resolve the 'once the servers go down these games are lost forever' problem, but nothing does at this point.
How do that contradict what I said? You have to install it on PS5. You can't play off the disc like you can play off cartridges on switch.
The difference here is that, true, you need to download it. But it doesn't really matter for SF6 since the game has had 5000 updates.
Japan mobile market completely turned from handheld to smartphones in the last decade, so idk
For me the problem is that right now more games than you'd think are perfectly fine unpatched. Most of the time the "essential" patches are just MP flaws found after launch and once the servers are down, MP is useless regardless (and probably dead a year after launch even while the servers are up.)
This code only stuff normalises digital only games and runs the risk of turning the switch into an xbox one/series x where microsoft encouraged publishers to just pay for an undersized BR and put the rest of the game on their servers while the PS5 generally uses multi-layer discs and has the entire game in a playable state.
Sadly you do have to be aware of the bullshit releases. Like Elden Ring was a straight up unfinished beta on the disc, but thankfully if it's not a live-service game and it's not some craptacular "AAA" thing from EA or ubislop, it's probably just fine.
kids
That hasn't been true since the Wii launch m8
you wish
lol
There are more people waiting for U/MvC3 to be on Switch 2 than this.
What I want to know is how many Kimberly amiibos are going on clearance
After what happened with capcom & marvel over infinite I really doubt they'll make another VS title
Purchase an advertisement.
Midnight bump
nobody seems to care
It's been two years. The game is shit by design.
Drive bar kills Street Fighter's normal gameplay by being so superior, and the main equalizer of the game is throw loops.
It's just ugly to see and disgusting to play. Nobody want's to pay it then have to download it in the pricier SD card that.
street fight 6 with a filthy handhelds wifi connections
to a lobby of 100 people
fucking KEK
I've been playing SF6 and Tekken 8 on my ROG Ally for ages. And no, the Switch 2 doesn't fit in your pockets unless you're a clown.
not physical not buying
install isn't download you disingenuous tranny
Tekken killed itself and Strive is trannycore. SF6 wins automatically
A ton of people. Switch needed a fighting game and while it did get GGS, SF6 is easily the most current gen fighter. SF6 is also really popular in Japan for some fucking reason so this being on a device people can carry around is huge for this game.
It's kind of weird that Capcom basically said hold off buying SF6 until June. This goes for all platforms.
No there isn’t your retarded mahvel nigger
They do this every fucking time, how can you people still be surprised?
I'm not shocked at the fact they do it. I'm shocked that it's April and they're basically like "In June you get a better version." I guess they don't give a fuck about two months of sales.
Yep given sega's recent track I was really expecting virtua fighter instead
looks good and may possibly have the best input latency out of the consoles
any modern stick/hitbox that had switch support will work because they arent arbitrarily locking out switch 1 controllers
ps5s have been terrible as setups because their usbs keeping melting
It would be hilarious if the Switch 2 ends up being the preferred setup console, but thatll never happen because sony owns evo and they already had a head start of people buying it there
They really should’ve just gone with fighters edition, years 1-2 is too wordy
le switch version has arrived
xbox series s version is gimped by capcom's incompetence. Apparently it loads the wrong textures. You have to into the settings and switch your resolution to fix it
Makes it sound like an episodic game. "Years 1-2" makes me think "underclassmen"
cross platform play is a thing for all versions of SF6 though.
that being said i think it's weird to play on neither PC or PS5.
the best argument I could see would be portability, but the FGC usually has PS5 setups at locals anyway
this was made only for japanese people, they just released it worldwide because it would take minimal effort to do
I wonder what SF6 on Switch 1 would've looked like.
SF6 is disproportionately popular there
what are you getting at? SF6 is extremely popular across the world. It is the premier fighting game in terms of numbers alone
No if that were the case, the switch wouldn't have made a resurgence. the whole idea is that phones are what you use for your gachas, but handhelds are where you still get dedicated games. Japan has always been a strong handheld market due to small size and portability during transport
this is literally no worse than what the other consoles do, ie give you a disc key that unlocks a download when in your system. this practice shouldn't be defended, but it's literally also how you would expect games with large download sizes to be handled in this day and age.
Everyone mocks the Switch conversions of games like Doom and The Witcher 3 for being paired down for both fps and disk size. Now people are getting on devs' cases having Switch conversions that harbor more faithfully high definition versions of their assets?
It's this weird Anon Babblecope narrative that only the Japanese play SF6 so it's a flop.
Every generation people say Nintendo is completely done for. Even during the Wii U era, they had the 3DS, which was selling like hotcakes.
I know half of them are shitposters, but I have to wonder if people seriously think Nintendo is going to bite the big one every time they decide not to compete with the most powerful home consoles.
hehe nintenfags, your favorite machine isn't even as powerful as the slopbox 9000!
much PC will completely obsolete your worthless console
most switchfags I know were either PCfags or PSfags. the common denominator here is that people who have a powerful gaming device still see value in having a switch, so I dunno really who you're talking to here.
lol that's so weird.
Steam numbers alone suggest it does at least 20k concurrent at most hours of the day, dipping at worst to like 15k.
i thought the narrative was that Japanese players don't use steam (false, but most FG players do use PS5 both in Japan and internationally), so assuming most aren't Japanese, isn't this evidence that SF6 is absurdly popular for its genre across the world?
Street Fighter started during the 80s and that cover you provided says Street Fighter 6. Woke Fighter 6 is from 2023, I think, not from the 90s.
I wish the game key card thing was smaller so that I can appreciate the boxart
Wasn't this game DOA
It's just another Nintie hate thread. This board seriously sees Nintendo as Hitler.
No. Every SFtard orgasmed with the announcement, dropped five the second it launched and gaslighted itself into acting like it was a good game for a while.
But the game is shit. So bad it's literally killing the will to play for people that have been playing high level SF forever.
i want to see the japanese cover
surely they dont plaster those ugly notices on the fron there too
it's literally the most popular fighting game ever. it's fine to not enjoy it, but it's got the most concurrent players on both steam and console internationally
They're still making Amiibo...
Everyone's playing it on ps5.
PC. Absolutely no one is playing on PS5 after how it flopped.
And?
