Hello Kitty x Street Fighter.... WAIT, WHAT!?

http://www.cinemablend.com/games/Hello-Kitty-X-Street-Fighter-Coming-2012-Capcom-Joking-33668.html

... They're not joking? I hope they're joking about the not joking part.

I don't know what to say about this.

This is cool.

Sounds interesting, actually.

Awww...

I mean, what the fuck?

I will buy this game five times over.

I hate you Capcom but this idea is too stupid for me to pass up.

This.

For anyone who didn't/couldn't read the link: There is no game (yet...), there is just going to be Hello Kitty/Street Fighter crossover merchandise. Also, I'm suddenly tempted to make a Devil sock puppet saying "It's awfully cold in here" and a Pig sock puppet with a post that just says "*drinks Red Bull*" but I'm far too lazy.

... Isn't it a tad late for April Fools hyjinks?

Some insane knickknacks are being released in Japan, no big deal. By Japanese standards this only rates like 3/10 on the insane-o-meter anyway.

What in the name of Nintendo is going on?

would be better if it was hello kitty vs mortal kombat.

Not a game. Hello Kitty dressed as Chun-Li, at most.

Or Seth or Rufus or Guile...

YOU HAVE IMAGINED IT! YOU CANNOT UNSEE!

This needs to be made, just for the sake of running the joke into the ground.

I already said that, but since nobody seemed to notice and you made it a lot more clear, it probably needed to be said again anyways.

EDIT: For that matter, Actually Comma kind of said it in his post too, so I dunno...

'Create memorable and cherished lifestyle brands' my ASS. They took a rabbit and turned it into a cat.

That aside, my reaction to this news was something along the lines of "why would you do that?"

Eh, it'll be Sanrio characters cosplaying Street Fighter characters. Nothing unusual

... What.

Hmm, Maybe it was because of this video?

YES!

So they stopped work on Legends 3 and are completely avoiding Darkstalkers to work on their brand new toy line of Hello Kitty Street Fighters?

Oh man, this is comedy gold. After RE: Mercenaries awful Save system, releasing too many versions of the same damn game under Super Arcade Edition monikers, and cancelling a highly anticipated game, Capcom is doing a fine job of pissing off its fanbase.

I'll be taking the pleasure of seeing Capcom run itself into the ground.

I'm pretty sure that those things are not even slightly related to each other, you're just looking for something to complain about.

Last time I checked, the date was 5/22/11, not 4/1/11.

Can't it be the other way around? I want Blanka cosplaying as Keroppi!
