First video of Super Street Fighter II HD Remix is ... from a cell phone?

This is it folks, the very first footage of the upcoming PlayStation Network/Xbox Live Arcade title, Super Street Fighter II HD Remix ... taken with a cell phone!
 
Not even footage snuck out of Capcom's Gamer Day in London, this is footage that's been posted on the official Capcom blogs. In an industry where fourteen developers and nine PR people have to approve every single screenshot that hits the net or print, this is somewhat of a rarity. Either Capcom doesn't care, or someone is getting yelled at right now.
 
Either way, there you have it. Because the quality is so poor, it's hard to really tell what the game looks like in action. If certainly does look like Super Street Fighter II, that's for sure, and that's a good thing ... right?

Well if any of you monkeys don't dig it, just wait for SFIV, while I'll be enjoying this cool game at top speed with no lag online.

I am somehow disappointed.
I imagined the HD version a little more fluid, and itīs not the cell phone quality i am talking about. Itīs the character animations, they still jump form one animation sprite to another.
I imagined the game, like a SF3 animation, you can see what i mean when you watch the hurricane kick starts and ends, itīs like a gap between one position and the other one.
Still tough, i will be buying this, and playing the shit out of it.

What does that mean for the old SF already up on Marketplace? That shit is still $10. Do we even know the pricing for this game yet?

@Teta

They've already made clear over and over that they are NOT adding animation.

A) Because of the extra time and money it would take to add so many frames/artwork.

B) Because the added frames would change the original gameplay.

C) Because of the limiations of size for XBLA games.


It looks pretty good to me and it will be the perfect thing to hold me over for a bit during the loooong ass wait for SF4. Also, does this confirm widescreen will be enabled?

Exactly GuitarAtomik, they wanted this game to play exactly like the original, to keep the purists happy. They are very picky, just check out Guile's low forward kick.

what matters is that it looks delicious, not to mention that we're watching it off a cell phone.

Looks awesome, but thanks to the gradual appearance of such a superb looking version of SFII. My reaction isn't that blown away. had I seen this version in 92. I would have fainted.
