« Street Fighter X Tekken: Eurogamer Interview with Yoshinori Ono »

Eurogamer has an interview with Capcom's Yoshinori Ono about Street Fighter X Tekken, among other things.

Topics include transitioning from Street Fighter 4 series to Street Fighter x Tekken, the game's speed, included characters and incorporating Tekken characters, release timeframes, demand for other games, and a good bit on Super Street Fighter 4 3D Edition for Nintendo 3DS.

Here's a sample. Hit the link above for the full interview!

Eurogamer: Will the Focus attack from Street Fighter IV be in the game? Will the Ultra and Super system be in it?

Yoshinori Ono: Super combo and Ultra combo are a part of the Street Fighter genome, so we can't take that out. In terms of Focus attack, that was only there because of the Street Fighter-style mind-reading type of game. When it comes to Street Fighter X Tekken, that kind of rhythm will differ a little bit, and Focus attack may not be the most appropriate system.

So we will come up with something that probably advances the tempo and rhythm a bit more. But we have to come up with something new for that one.

Eurogamer: So the Focus attack won't be in the game?

Yoshinori Ono: Next time this year I might be saying something completely different, but for the moment we've taken Focus attack off the candidate list and we're trying to devise something new.
