The man behind modern Street Fighter states that the image of the Wii U at E3 2011 "is not a reflection of what the system has to offer."
Yoshinori Ono, producer of recent Street Fighter games, made some statements about the Wii U's real power and what it will offer to gamers.
While visiting Madrid, Spain promoting Capcom's Street Fighter X Tekken, he was asked about upcoming video game releases, which included the Wii U and PS Vita. When he was asked about Nintendo's new system, Ono mentioned that the system "offers so many big and unique possibilities that it is going to be hard to sell them on the box it will be sold on."
"What was shown at last year's E3 is not a reflection of the power the system will offer. We have been trying out the development kits and some of the new features will increase its possibilities. It isn't like the Kinect or anything like that, it is something different," Ono further stated.
He elaborates on that comment by saying that "I can't talk anymore regarding the subject because, if I do, Nintendo will send assassins to kill me! (laughs). But let's say that the Wii U is going to be a console that will count with some great and unique posibilities that it will be hard to sell them across magazines and other mediums."
It is not clear whether Ono was referring to NFC capability, which was revealed by Nintendo today.
