SF4 prod pours cold water over March 09 release rumour

Capcom's Yoshinori Ono has poured cold water on recent rumours suggesting the console version of Street Fighter IV will be released to coincide with the release of the new movie in March 2009.

In an interview with VideoGamer.com from Leipzig Games Convention, producer Ono-san said that Capcom's R&D team had no idea about the suggested timing, and stated that the publisher still doesn't know when the console version of one of the most anticipated fighting games in recent memory will be released.

When asked about the rumoured March 2009 release period, Ono-san replied: "Our R&D team didn't know much about this timing! They are just put under pressure by those people sitting outside. So at the moment development time wise, we've just about managed to take on the arcade version on console. Obviously we have to balance the game and add on the other features for the console version. We're just working on it. We still don't know."
