Super Street Fighter IV is a standalone update to its predecessor, adding new characters, modes, and online features.
Yun = the death of AE?
Whatever poke he has can combo into his medium punch, which combos into whatever he wants. A proper Yun combo can take away 1/3 of your life and at the end he can juggle into his ultra or super. And he's pretty much always safe on block. He has an advantage on every other character with that. Ain't so bad, right?
Yeah most online Yuns are still pretty bad, so unless you play in tournaments, he shouldn't be unbeatable to you.
Luckily most yuns still haven't figured out how to safely apply pressure. Until that happens yun is fine.
I haven't played the update yet, but this won't stop me. A lack of balance has never stopped me from playing an entry in one of my favorite fighting franchises. Heck, I used to go to SSBM tournaments, and I still love MVC2. I predict that, online and in the local tourney scene, the most popular characters will still be who they've always been. Additionally, I do not play at a high enough level that the balance will have a huge impact on the outcome of my matches.
Oh, and Chun Li 4 LYFE!
I am an avid SF player, but I do not see why people think yun is so overpowered. Think about it, his defense isn't spectacular (unlike pre-patch sentinel) and all of his attacks basically require long combos to do any real damage. yes he is a very good character, but this isn't the type of situation that will break the game on the competitive scene in the least.

He's a lot better than Vanilla Sagat IMO, but I don't think that's bad personally.
No No no. They are not comparable. I just think people forgot how deadly one uppercut from sagat could be. It did a shit load, on top of the fact that an FADC gave you a full ultra after F.RH. His fireballs were just ridiculous and his st.RH was insane. Yun has a lot of safe pressure, but he definitely needs to be played differently than a normal matchup. If the solution to beat Yun is to anti-air with a normal such has st.LP rather than your normal one, than I'd say that's less game-breaking than one uppercut interrupting your block string that leads to nearly 650 damage.
AE is SOOO much more balanced than vanilla. AE is young, give people a chance to really learn Yun IMO.

Yun online, Yun offline, annoying both ways. Also way to get my name wrong. (I now see that I broke real hard once I heard this guy had a fucking documentary made about him, either way, I just need to get this matchup down and not be so predictable with rog).
I thought you played pretty solid, don't play rog myself anymore so don't know what the matchup is like but I'm guessing it's bad (like most characters).

@demontium: Bad luck with the name, they tried pretty much every pronunciation and when they finally got there it was still spelt wrong :( I thought you played pretty solid, don't play rog myself anymore so don't know what the matchup is like but I'm guessing it's bad (like most characters).
I'd say it's 5.5 to 4.5 in yun's favor. I know that I became to predictable on every knockdown, he was just mauling me with reversal dkicks. Also, there were some great oppurtunities to turtle and i missed them. Overall tournament jitters got to me.
