Darkstalkers: Support Ono with the franchise's revival

Current Fighting Games Fighting Game Discussion

I searched and all I saw was about the Darkstalkers HD possibility – LAME :frowning: People have known about this but there haven’t been any new threads concerning it. If there are, I’m sorry for wasting bandwidth.

Anyway, in a new interview with Ono, he mentions at the very end that he wants to make a new Darkstalkers game, using the SFIV engine.

So, who here wants a new kickass Darkstalkers game?!

I sure do :smiley:

PS. This means Morrigan in 3D goodness is quite possible + BIG THIGHS!

PSS. A lot of people are falling under the assumption that reviving Darkstalkers with Ono will just make it look and play like Street Fighter IV. Please know that engines are quite flexible and can be used to make COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAMES. Refer to Varleran’s post

You should have read the other thread, in which people discuss a new Darkstalkers game from like, the first page.

terrible idea.
:stuck_out_tongue:

4

What other thread o.o The one about a DS HDRemix?

5

Aw hell naw!!

6

Me want! Think of Morrigan and Lilith in 3D:lovin:

7

I don’t think SF4’s engine would be a good idea for this. Vampire Savior is a very fast paced game, and I couldn’t imagine how some characters would be without their GC or AG. But I do really wanna see it come back :).

u gonna get blissed in 2.5 d

Complete with Chun Li’s manhands?!

Only if they give his RD super an SFIV input like he says he will. Otherwise you’re getting board special’d by Bishamon, and please help me’d by Felicia lewlpewl.

Watching two Sas players turtle each other out because of the game engine will make me slit my wrists.

“Next match, DD versus Nasu!”
“YES THIS IS GONNA BE SICK"
match starts
flick flick flick, jump MK, hop backwards, flick flick
TIME OVER
"DAMNIT”

Agreed. Dunno if I’m really trying to see trade to bat super lol. I would really hope there’s like hella refinement to the engine if they’re gonna give it to Darkstalkers.

14

Fuck that. If anything would benefit from using sf4’s engine (graphics, too) it would be the ugly-ass ex series. Either make an ex with everybody from the whole damn ex series (and all the stages from 2 and 3), or do all 3 games in one pack with the sf4 graphics and stuff in both cases. hit’s already 2.5d, so all they’d have to do is port the visuals onto it and boom: done.

15

Most likely by engine he meant the graphics system and whatnot, not the gameplay mechanics.

16

Uh no. Have you really played the EX series, bro?

I do agree a EX4 with upgraded graphics would own though. However, SF4 =/= EX4, sry.

And no, don’t let Ono touch DS. Bring back my boy Oni-Suzuki, get Akira to do it, anyelse, please. Otherwise, best left alone.

17

Sounds great. I really want a bad game director in charge of a new Vampire Savior game.

…

As Pots stated, I think Ono meant the sexy 3D graphics of the SFIV engine. If they made DS at SFIV’s slow pace, I don’t think it’d be DS anymore :S

19

Oh shit son it’s the :open_mouth: face :rofl: but seriously fuck no Capcom, give us our Darkstalkers HDR first :wonder:

Color me skeptical. I can’t even imagine what Darkstalkers would look like in 3D. Been too used to having it in 2D for ages now.
