Instead of taking a photo to send proof of demand to Capcom's upper management like he had done in the past, he stated: "This year, you don't have to do that, and it's not necessarily bad news!", but refrained himself from saying anything else. Ono later teased the presence of Darkstalkers at a panel for Street Fighter's 25th Anniversary Celebration at San Diego Comic-Con in July. Later the following year in June, a message "Darkstalkers are not dead" appeared in a trailer for the PlayStation Vita version of Street Fighter X Tekken when asked about it, Ono wrote on his Twitter: "I can't announce about Darkstalkers yet". He then proceeded to take a photo of the attendees at the panel holding up their money to send to decision makers at Capcom to show support for the game. Īt 2011 San Diego Comic-Con in July, Ono revealed during the Street Fighter X Tekken panel that while a new Darkstalkers title had not been approved, he reassured the series' fans that " Darkstalkers is not dead". It's on its way, because we're pretty much where we were with Street Fighter a few years back. In the near future, with your help, it may become true. He later expressed during an interview at a Nintendo 3DS launch in London that "one day, if it goes half a million, Capcom may raise its eyebrow a little bit and I could do what I did in London in 2007 when I announced the comeback of Street Fighter. By March 2011, Ono reported that Capcom had received over 100,000 requests. At that point, Capcom had received 5,000 requests. He went on to say that it would take one million requests before Keiji Inafune, then head of research and development at Capcom, would comply. In August 2010, Ono stated during an interview about Street Fighter X Tekken that a new installment to the series would be his "ultimate dream", but only fan demand would cause it to happen. In two or three years, if I got the chance to resurrect that series, I'd like to shock Hollywood with how good the graphics would look". That would be tricky to do with this 3D engine, but not impossible. It would be an interesting challenge with Darkstalkers, because in the old games you'd see a lot of really interesting animations as characters would morph into different forms. Capcom, and I'd also like to see the triumphant return of Darkstalkers to a new generation of technology.
