To eager fans of the classic fighting game franchise Street Fighter, this interview of Yoshinori Ono, producer of Capcom‘s upcoming Street Fighter IV, should make you guys jump for joy.

He was able to give juicy tidbits of information regarding the additional characters that could be found in the console version of the game and that there could be a possibility for the game to be released for the Wii.

As for the eight well-known characters, Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Blanka, Dhalsim, E. Honda, Zangief, and Guile, Ono said that if the console versions are released, chances are Sakura-chan or Ibuki could be making a comeback. He believes that there will be a move to add more characters to the home version of the game.

As for the possibility that the game could be released for the Wii, Ono commented:

Street Fighter IV, as it stands now, would be well-suited for the higher-level platforms. But the game doesn’t have to have these visuals in order to be fun. We could go, potentially, to the Wii. We could make it on Game Boy, for all we know right now.

As long as the rules are the same, that can be independent of the visuals. So we’re not going to be limited by any hardware specs; we’re going to aim as wide as possible.
