I e-mailed the following message to Capcom (sa...@capcom.com). Please note
that the simplicity of it was intentional. ^_^

------------
Hello

Will Street Fighter Alpha 3 be released for PlayStation soon? I heard it would
be available during the first week of May.

Is it true that this game will support the Pocketstation? If so, when will it
be possible to buy a PocketStation?

Thank you for your time.

Fred Davis

And here is the response provided by Irma Hernandez <ir...@capcom.com>

Hello,

You can purchase Street Fighter Alpha 3 now by logging into our web site at
www.capcom.com. If you pre-order the game before its release date in May,
you will also receive a free T-shirt plus a Strategy guide, a $29.99 value!
We have no information on the PocketStation at this time.

Remember, you can also call our Game Play Hotline at (900) 680-2583 for
game play assistance or information on new releases. You must be 18 years

$0.99 per minute for 24 hours pre-recorded information or $1.35 per minute
for live Game Counselor assistance. From Canada, dial 1-900-677-2272, and
the cost is $1.35 per minute.

For warranty, repair, and technical support or order information, you can
call us at (408) 774-0400. Our representatives would be happy to assist

I'd like to take this time to thank you for choosing Capcom products and
for your continued support. Great gamers like you help make Capcom the
hottest video game company in the business. Good luck, and happy gaming!

----------
So not even they know about the Pocketstation's future yet (or they just ain't
tellin' ^_^).

Oh, and I wouldn't call that number if your query is something like this:

"Hi, my imported, burned copy of MSF for my Saturn is not working. Will you
guys send me one that does?" ^_^

Looks like a generic reply that they copy to hundreds of other
responses...

But hey! At least they replied. That alone is a lot better than
80% of the companies out there.

I asked them about SFA3 for saturn a while ago, (Email) and actually got a
real reply, no form letter. Sharp stuff.
