Yeah, I don't like those words either. It makes everything sound way more serious. I hope he recovers quickly. He should take some time off though. It's a healthy thing to do.

We've seen it for four years and we are about to see again with SFxT.

Ono should take a break and let Niitsuma's team handle DS if they are doing it. I don't know how Ono has kept going at full blast for so long. Dude went from constant SFIV work to SFxT...

Yeah, dude should take a vacation. Pack his little Blanka doll and chill in Hawaii for a while. That is exactly what I'd do after being involved with two huge titles.

Agreed. Ono needs a vacation, I think Niitsuma would do a great job on a new Darkstalkers.

 

[TheOGB]

D: Definitely one of my favorite guys in the industry as well.

Get well soon, Ono!


As much as I want Ono to get a break, I couldn't see DS4 without him on board. Maybe have his team work with Niitsuma's team, or have Niitsuma help out with Ono's team.

 

[Master Thespian]

Ono fought for Street Fighter and opened the lines of communication between his development team and the rest of the world. In many ways, he sparked the fighting game resurgence and I'm thankful for that. I hope he has a speedy recovery.

 

[Mxrz]

That makes it sound kind of serious. I hope the guy's okay. Without him we wouldn't have SF4, and without its success, a lot of other fighters. Hopefully he recovers soon (and makes Darkstalkers.)

 

[Emitan]

Get better

 

[Krev]

That's terrible.
Hope he recovers quickly.

 

[RurouniZel]

Here's hoping it's only exhaustion. I'd really hate for him to be seriously ill or worse.

 

[Finaika]

Street Fighter Creator Hospitalized

Street Fighter creator Yoshinori Ono has been hospitalized after falling ill during a Street Fighter x Tekken promotional event in Japan.

I hope he gets better, as he seriously rocks.

But is he really the creator of Street Fighter?

 

[Theonik]

Probably overwork. Hopefully he should recover soon. I hope.
Also wow, this thread is a deathzone.

 

[The Hermit]

his condition got worse? what the hell could it be?

I love him, hope he gets better... I wish I knew what he has so I can be more aware of how serious it is

 

[Slamtastic]

I hope he gets better, as he seriously rocks.

But is he really the creator of Street Fighter?

No, he is the producer of
Capcom Fighting Evolution
Street Fighter IV (and expansions)
Street Fighter X Tekken

 

[Eteric Rice]

Feel better soon Ono.

 

[Symphonic]

Get well soon, you beautiful man you.

 

[Criminal Upper]

I have Ono's Mii on my 3DS when I went to captivate....

It's gotta be overworking/exhaustion, this type of stuff happens all the time with celebrities/musicians/atheletes when they travel all over the world alot, and have 18 hour days.

Get better soon Yoshi-bay!

 

[jett]

Probably exhaustion, surely nothing serious.

 

[twothunder]

"Ono-san's physical condition rapidly and heavily deteriorated".
That sounds pretty serious. Hope he'll be okay and recover soon.

 

[Wiseblade]

Hope he gets well soon, he's so much fun to have around.

 

[d0c_zaius]

get well Ono!

 

[AlexBasch]

Tsk, if people are cracking jokes of Ono's health and the on-disc DLC/SxT issues imagine the amount of stupidness that would be released if Casey Hudson or any Bioware employee suffers an accident or gets sick.

...okay, unrelated, but that was on my mind. Hope the guy gets well, I grew to like him for his Bison acting. Hopefully his Blanka figurine is making him company right now.

 

[Morphis]

"Ono-san's physical condition rapidly and heavily deteriorated".
That sounds pretty serious. Hope he'll be okay and recover soon.

Could be a mistranslation, or an overstatement anyway. I hope so.

 

[toastyToast]

I wouldn't be surprised if it was fatigue. He's been omnipresent promoting SFxT for the last couple months.

And you guys wanted him to go back to work after this and work on characters!

 

[enzo_gt]

Jeez, I hope he gets better. Really sad news

 

[Guri]

This is about a person. And a great person. Not a developer.

I hope he gets better!

 

[tigerin]

he's a kool guy, hope he gets better.

 

[Dambrosi]

Without Ono, Capcom has nothing. Get well soon, ya big ol' troll, you.

Actually, as a Brit, this is uncomfortably reminiscent of the recent collapse of Bolton Wanderers footballer Fabrice Muamba during their match against Tottenham Hotspur on the 17th. That continues to generate sympathy from all corners of life in the UK, including myself, and I'm wondering if it might be the same thing, kinda sorta.

Nonetheless, best wishes and good health to both.

 

[Endo Punk]

I find Ono extremely annoying but I hope he gets well soon.

Let me have an easier go at this

ストクロのプロデューサーである「おのちん」ですが、
ストクロアジア発売イベントツアー直後、
体調を急激に崩し、倒れてしまいました・・・。
病院に担ぎ込まれ、現在会社にもvしていない状況です。
幸いに大事にはいたっておりませんので
ゆっくり療養していただきたいと思います。

それではまた来週！

Regarding SFxT producer Ono, immediately after the SFxT announcement event
He quickly felt very sick and fainted.
He was brought to the hospital and currently isn't in a condition to come to work.
Happily, it hasn't ended up as being severe, so let's hope for a easy recuperation

See you next week!

 

[Ferrio]

MP+MK

 

[Professor Beef]

Here's to a speedy recovery, Ono!

 

[shaowebb]

My heart goes out to him, and all those close to him. I hope to hear good news soon, and may you have a speedy recovery. Hate to see this sort of thing happen to anyone.

 

[Yamibito]

One of the only cool guys left at Capcpom- wow at the douchebags at the first page saying this was karma though.

 

[Kaldea]

Get well soon, Ono! You bring the smiles like no other.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Hope he recovers so he can go home and be a family man!

 

[MisterLuffy]

I hope he gets well.

Sweet, nice to know.

And Capcom? Pay Mr. Ono ALL THE MONEY when he's better and send him on a vacation. He deserves it.

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

You would never known from meeting him, but when you consider his workload, this was bound to happen at some point. (that is if is simple exhaustion related)

Hope he pulls through.

 

[Epcott]

Thank goodness it's not severe.

Whew... classy remarks and resulting bans, Ono fainting, batman arrested... such a wild day.

 

[Zabuza]

No! I die if he dies!

 

[daegan]

Oh man. Hope it's not too serious. 😨

 

[DR2K]

Getting Capcom to greenlight a Darkstalkers sequal is not easy work.


Hope he gets better soon.

 

[ZROCOOL]

Hopefully its nothing to serious

 

[Carlbeego]

Capcom will charge us for an update on his health.

 

[Magicpaint]

Get well soon!

I was just about to post on how "Ono-san's physical condition rapidly and heavily deteriorated" sounded very severe and I hoped it was some kind of mistranslation. Glad I was right

Get well soon Ono

 

[Nizz]

Sounds like he'll recover soon. Good news.

 

[Professor Beef]

oh ffs

 

[cj_iwakura]

Wow, people blaming a genuinely passionate man like Ono for stuff that I guarantee Capcom's suits make him do.

Ono has as much control over Capcom's actions as Inafune has over Mega Man.

Get well soon.

 

[yurinka]

Hope he gets better soon.

Indeed. Ono and Inafune were the guys pushing for SFIV when the Capcom execs didnt cared about FGs.

No, Inafune was one of these Capcom execs. Was really hard for Ono to convince him to get a greenlight.

 

[Conceited]

Ono <3
