Capcom: Street Fighter IV in retailers this Winter

by Dustin Burg { Oct 23rd 2008 at 11:45AM }

In a statement to G4, Street Fighter IV producer Yoshi Ono made mention that the next Street Fighter installment will be storming retailers sometime this Winter.

"At some point you'll be sitting in you winter coat looking at snow out the window ... and right then we'll kind of heat you up a little with some hot street fighter action," said Ono. "We don't want to start rumors that it's this year, but definitely this winter."

So, whether it's late 2008 or early 2009, SFIV is on its way to the 360 when there's snow on the ground. That is, if you live in a colder climate where it actually snows.

Is this information right ? Because the release date for Street Fighter IV in Japan is 2009 winter.
That means late 2009.
See the official page. http://www.capcom.co.jp/sf4/cs.html
Its in Japanese, but for the release date, it says "2009 Fuyu". Fuyu, means Winter in Japanese.

I'm think that winter in japan is Nov 7 - Feb 3rd, so it could be in january 2009.

i don't think that's snow...white paint maybe?

also, where the hell is Cammy?! don't they even have art for her yet for being the first console exclusive character that "won" that poll? (other "winners" on the poll being Sakura, Dan and Fei Long...which have art and have been seen in game).
