Looks like Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition is official as downloadable content for the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360. From the looks of this leaked trailer (which has since been pulled), the game's storyline will center around Evil Ryu, and a new character called Oni. Evil Ryu also has long hair sometimes, which is awesome.
The video also details some of the other features that will go into SSFIV:AE on home consoles. Yun and Yang (last seen in Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike), new outfits, a new replay system, a new "Elite" replay video viewing system, and some other cool stuff are all part of the package. No price has been announced, but I'm guessing that with all this new content, we're looking at $15 at least.
Now we just need this content to come to Super Street Fighter IV: 3D Edition, turning it into Super Street Fighter IV: 3D Edition Arcade Edition, and making it the longest name in Street Fighter history. Sorry Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, your time may be numbered.

I'm buying IT!!!
I SHOULD NOT BE POSTING WHEN I AM THIS SLEEP DEPRIVED.
I AM A GAMER WHO HATES TYPOS AND REFUSES TO READ ARTICLES WITH BAD GRAMMAR THAT MAKES IT LOOK LIKE SNK TEXT.
/SNKfanboy
Sold.
1) they created that tool Wolfgang Krauser
2) bad text translations is bad.
1) Krauser isn't that bad, plus they made Mr. Big.
2) I'll give you that one, but just like the voices in Dynasty Warriors, it's now part of the charm.
Super Street Fighter II X for Matching Service: Grand Master Challenge
Is there a ULC function to send some of the guys back to Capcom for a modest discount on future games and DLC?
No, I think that I'll be waiting for this to be bundled with the main game or for some future XBox Live sales event.
Nicely done! And Super Street Fighter II X for Matching Service: Grand Master Challenge is actually a great game. But still, AE DLC for 3DS would be totally awesome! Capcom and Nintendo, make it happen!!!
I also hope them characters get balanced. 'Specially Yun, who I've heard is quite the cheapzorz.
im sorry you dissing SNK for some reason? you do NOT diss SNK. as much as i love the SF series, nothing comes close to KOF or other SNK games like Samurai Shodown.
well maybe Arc System works but they only made GG and Blazblue.
now if SNK release a updated version of KOF XIII with the same features of Blazblue CS II along with new characters as well as bringing back characters like Vanessa, Gai, Ramon etc..
but you know what? i prefer another KOF Dream Match rather than XIII. it features almost everyone from the series. yes that includes Nameless, k9999, Ash, Saiki, heck even Magaki and Adelheid.
can't wait for SSFIV AE update. please release a optional disk for those who want everything on disk
I love the people who have amazingly unrealistic expectations... I will be quite happy with the $15 price... $10 would be awesome, yet unlikely. $5 is crack addict talk.
"YUN IS UTTERLY BROKEN. Good god they need to do something about him."
Yun is clearly in his own tier. However, he isn't broken, he is just way too scrub friendly. Still, I hear you and agree, they need to hit him with the nerf stick (Yang and Fei could use a little bump as well). However, if they do balance the top, I hope they don't hit them too hard...
Either way, the balance on AE is awesome. Despite Yun, Yang, Fei, Makoto and Adon being VERY good, the rest of the cast is ALL viable. THAT INCLUDES DAN!!! AE Dan is by far the most playable Dan we have ever seen in a SF game. SSF4 Dan was not a bad character, but with the buffs to his normals AE Dan is heads and tails better than his SSF4 counterpart.
I can't wait for this DLC.
As for the DLC, I kind of wish this was another retail release. Little stuff like costumes, sure, but huge updates? I like not having to worry about the servers with the content still being up years from now.
... I know SF veterans are sick of shoto characters but dang I can't wait to try all 4 of them, including Oni and Evil-Roo.
I'm sure there is a connection between Oni and Akuma, but they likely aren't the same character.
Serious face.
