New Super Mario Bros. As Inspiration For Street Fighter 4
In an act of art inspiring art, Yoshinori Ono, producer for Street Fighter IV, revealed in an interview with Famitsu magazine the team's impetus in furthering their development for one of the most talked about games in recent history.
"When we heard during development that Shigeru Miyamoto was making a new DS version of Super Mario Bros., we were really happy that our vision [for Street Fighter IV] and [Shigeru Miyamoto's] vision were the same. [Lost Planet and Dead Rising producer] Keiji Inafune said to me, 'If you're doing the same thing as the giants of gaming, surely it's bound to go well?'"
The amount of deference that even Keiji Inafune shows to Shigeru Miyamoto is amazing. Let us hope that the successes that New Super Mario Bros. found can be equally enjoyed by Street Fighter IV.
Then again, where is a version of Street Fighter IV for the Wii? Hmm?
