According to the Internet in all its various forms, Street Fighter 4 does exist. And it’s called Street Fighter: Battle for the Past. And it features characters from past iterations of the franchise – 24 of them, apparently. Oh, and it’s coming out on Sammy’s AtomisWave arcade board.
According to Capcom, nothing is actually happening, though any announcement is expected to hit the Japanese press, most likely Famitsu, when the time comes.
So you have a title, and some vague idea of platform and characters to be getting on with. For the record, SPOnG believes that the title might be correct, though the use of the AtomisWave board makes little sense, given the profile of the series.
We will, of course, keep you updated.

Wonder if they'll still have Gouki in that line up? He's a bad monkey. Some secret characters would be sweet too.
One note for Capcom, please make the bonus stages a little better than 3rd Strike's, and also include a two player option in them. Bonus stages to break things up have been lacking in the series for years and it's time we got a few good ones spread out in the game.
A game more akin to Alpha 2 and 3rd Strike would be cool, unlockable extras would also be cool, and don't make Balrog so strong. We like beating him up.
