    Before anything, you will need to know Objective-C.

    I think you will be fine going right into Objective-C, but prior knowledge might help.

    If you are new to programming and game development you will make your life a lot easier if you start with a game that's a little more simple than a fighting game. Start out with something like a breakout clone or something similar. You will get to that fighting game a lot faster if you don't get too ambitious starting out.
