So people saying that 2D games bomb on the Wii were just mouthing off since there werent that much on the other consoles to begin with and anything released on them sold WAY less than the ones that made it to the Wii?...umm...yea...GAF...
Oh, and a lot of people from my college have been waiting on this game to be announced. It will do well for Capcom. Actually just 2 weeks ago a friend said to me that its going to be announced to come over here and I laughed in his face.
2D fighting games. Actually if you mean 2D games as by 2D visuals and gameplay the Wii seems to be the ideal console for that this generation.

They should use the character art/3d engine for a wii sf4......i really like the style....
Ditto I prefer this advanced Dreamcast blocky style to say a cell-shaded PS3/360 game.

They said one of those mystery games was playable on the show floor, so it's very likely that it's this game.
Pretty much. While I'm very excited about this, I am a bit dissapointed as I was hoping for something new new.

I'm probably just wasting my breath but shouldn't we all just be happy that this game is being given another chance and hope for competent online rather than taking the extra step of estimating how much better it would be on other systems? Maybe Hardcore gamers really can't ever be satisfied.
Well most people are bitching because it isn't on their platform of choice. Personally I brought each of my gaming systems for a reason so if an exclusive goes to any of them and utilizes their reason (Wii: games being avantgarde (NMH, Madworld), using the Wii motion controls (Red Steel 2, Trauma Center), having nice graphics that wouldn't fly on the other consoles (Tatsunoko vs Capcom), PC: Cutting edge graphics and tech, support for a huge mod community, easy importing, etc.).
Either way you can't satisfy the hardcore because if anything isn't EXACTLY how they want it they'll complain. I'm surprised that nobody has brought up the whole "2D graphics vs 3D graphics" thing yet.

I wasn't trying to be a dick. But just as it's annoying on any other game/console to hear "Oh man I hope/wish this game comes out for system x" it's annoying to hear it here as well. This game has been out for over half a year now, a 360/PS3 port has never even been rumored, it's US release was highly doubtful and now that it's announced a good portion of posts in this thread are over something that will NEVER happen. again, not trying to be a dick, but I don't get why people at this stage in the game's life are still doing the "I hope it comes out for PS360" dance. It isn't. It won't. No chance. Definitely not a fanboy.. just a realist in this case.
and no, in this case wanting it out for all systems ISN'T a good thing, as the cost to port it to those systems would likely never be recouped from sales.. seriously I would be shocked if the game sells even 50K on Wii in NA, a system starved for fighters. On 360 and PS3 with all of their mega mainstream fighters I would be shocked if it even did 30K in sales between the two. Porting the game in this case would basically cause it to make even less money for capcom.

I did not know it was not ok to want a game on every console.
I think you guys are getting it all wrong. I will buy it on wii if thats the only way i can buy it. Just wanted it on other systems due to being able to use my existing arcade sticks. :-/ . Its pretty said if I am going to get banned over this. I have nothing but love for the wii.
I feel like I have been part of a witch hunt or something. Sadly I am not what you think I am.
Not being able to use your PS3/360 arcade sticks (I really have no idea why you put the 360 into this) is more so your issue and not a universal one. Especially since Wii Hori sticks can be customized as well. Or you could just mod your PCB. I mean really I can see your problem but that's more so of your problem and not one that will collide with everyone elses. I could see if you were complaining about something like the lack of a mod community (if this game was an RTS or something similar) or the lack of cutting edge tech (if this game was a simulator or something similar) but you're not you are complaining over a peripheral in which the Wii already offers and offers possible use for the most superior ones as well.
Seriously this is like complaining that Tecmo didn't release a PS3 port of Dead or Alive 4 during the PS3's launch window.

As long as the people asking for a PS360 port aren't the same ones being condescending to those that would like a Wii port of PS360 games, then there shouldn't be a problem. 3rd party exclusives suck period this gen since no single console maker holds a dominant marketshare like that of the PS2.
But exclusives:
A. Push the systems I own to the limits
B. Have developers only concentrate on one system thus using all of its advantages/bells and whistles
If I didn't care about exclusives I'd be PC only this generation.
