It was finally announced that SC is going touch "soon". What do you think? Should the game be kept the same? How should the controls be? I think this deserves its own thread.
First of all, a few more characters would be great. I'm all in for Cassandra, Raphael and Tira. In fact, I would love if this game was a mix of different SC games, having the basic gameplay of SCII, more characters and upgraded graphics.
If my iPod can handle that for two hours and a half straight, I see no reason to not upgrade the graphics sightly.
As for multiplayer, I think that the best would be just bluetooth, lag would be very hard to deal with, although it might actually turn out well. But since it's a handheld device, most of the gameplay (if not all) will be single player. I think that apart from the classic Arcade and Survival, Mission and CaS would make the game much more replayable. Yes, I said CaS. Regarding the roster, I'd go for: Original SCI roster, Raphael, Cassandra, Tira, Talim, Yun and post SCII Nightmare. Zasalamel and Setsuka would be really hard to play with in a touch screen, unless they're simplified, but that would kinda mess them up.
And talking about controls, that's going to be the most important part, I know we have the advantage of multi touch, but we're gonna need at least two shortcut buttons. It would also be awesome to have iCade support.
And for a sidenote, I'm wondering why they didn't just go ahead and post SCV.
