Hadouken! Ryu's Official Thread! - We do EX Moves to SMASH!

[Troykv]

HORY SHET! RYU IS REAL... AGAIN!

 

[Champ Gold]

Just WHO will be the AT of street fighter?!

Could be anyone. I was thinking Ken, Chun-Li, Zangief.

Chun-Li

Can't keep the queen of fighting games out

 

[PsychoJosh]

Maybe they have an option to pick Ultra I or Ultra II

If the voice clips are any indication, he will have EX moves and a super available to him, meaning he is very likely to have a super meter mechanic, as I suspected he might have a long time ago.

For you non-Street Fighter players, what this means is, Ryu will have a meter next to his life indicator, similar to Mac's KO meter. This will fill up as he both attacks and gets attacked. He will be able to expend portions of this meter on enhanced versions of his special moves, and when the meter is full he will have access to a super fireball which could be deadly.

Just WHO will be the AT of street fighter?!

DAAAAAAN.

He'll be like Resetti was in Brawl and just sit around and be annoying and occasionally explode.

 

[CyberWolfBia]

Judging by the slightly refined model for Ken (which seems to be done with his SFIV model) I guess he could be an Assist Trophy; but we'll just find out tomorrow!

 

[AreJay25]

So, just like Lucas, Ryu and Roy will be unusable at EVO.

Mr. Fighting Game Himself, Ryu, will not be playable at EVO. Who'd have thought?

 

[Plain Yogurt]

All day I just

but yeah, I wasn't expecting this at all. Put Ryu back in my mind 'cause I couldn't fathom Sakurai putting him in. How perfect would that be, though, y'know? I always thought that. The Grandaddy of All Fighters in a game with an equally historic cast of characters and their lineage/pedigree in their respective genres.

(even though I'm a Gouki main at heart, but hey)

I'm super, super stoked. He may not replace my boy D3 but he's gonna be a really close second. I'mma lab him super hard.

Smooth Criminal

Yo but if Ryu can FADC this game is screwed. Prepare for the Ryu Umeshoryu uprising.

Thing is, how will they be expended? Like Mac where KO Punch replaces Straight Lunge or a special input? I mean, a quarter circle input for EX moves would be cool and fairly unobtrusive, so.

 

[dezeray112]

My pick would be Chun-Li.

 

[warionumbah2]

His final Smash isn't Metsu its Shin Shoryuken the one Gouken taught him after SF4. Look at his pose when he connects the second hit and compare it to the after image in the trophy, Metsu is different.

Spoiler

Street fighter 3 master race.

 

[FalKoopa]

Just WHO will be the AT of street fighter?!

Well, Ken is the only one other than Ryu who got a trophy, so it's him or no one. I wanted trophies for Chun-Li, M. Bison and Guile though.

 

[CyberWolfBia]

I hope they apply zoom effects just like 3rd Strike! If not, please, let it be like TvC!

 

[Dark Phazon]

Congratulations guys

Well, again, this ties into Street Fighter's gameplay.

In Street Fighter, to do an EX move, you do the same input for the move you normally would, except you press TWO buttons instead of one. So if you want an EX fireball for example (the normal version is quarter circle forward + any punch), you instead do quarter circle forward + any TWO punches.

This could operate the same way in Smash. Let's say B is his fireball. Therefore, to do an EX fireball, you press A+B at the same time. This simulates Street Fighter's input system where you input two buttons to get an EX move.

So:

EX Fireball: Press A and B at the same time.
EX Uppercut: Press Up+A+B at the same time.
EX Spinning Kick: Press Forward+A+B at the same time.

It's not very difficult to do, and would make Ryu particularly interesting in this game.

 

[Dinoman96]

^That's exactly how Project M's version of Lucario works, funnily enough.

 

[Spinosaurus]

This is too much

Im hyped

 

[Chaos_Knight]

I hope they apply zoom effects just like 3rd Strike! If not, please, let it be like TvC!

I hope the Ultra/Super combo finish background is added when you killed someone with Ryu's FS.

 

[TaichiYaegashi]

I woke up and logged onto my computer, saw that my Youtube and Miiverse alerts had ABSOLUTELY blew up. I was wondering what had happened for this to be going on. Then I see in those alerts that apparently Roy and Ryu were leaked AGAIN so I rushed over to SmashBoards and...


Tears of joy, not gonna lie.

One small hurdle - given that A+B was updated to perform smashes if toggled on in 1.0.6, wouldn't the smash attacks override the EX moves if such an input were performed?

Otherwise you're probably on the money with EX moves and that would be really awesome

 

[Pallex]

I think he's an alternate costume.

I don't see it and no Evil Ryu colors either.

 

[MM_Row]

leaked again? when was the first ?

 

[KiraYoshikage]

Can't wait to see Ryu combo into his Final Smash. That would totally be a EVO hype moment if they allowed items.

 

[Putuk]

Hype is not good for me; it drives me to draw things like this:

 

[CyberWolfBia]

Once, Street Fighter II Victory hit me right in the feelings with the Hadouken Theme... now, after sometime, Street Fighter is doing that again!...
--This year is going to be great for SF and Ryu fans! Smash4, PxZ2, SFV!.. everything is great! =D

 

[PsychoJosh]

I dunno, probably. I doubt there's many people who use that to do Smash Attacks anyways.

It's how I would do it if I were making the game.

 

[Chaos_Knight]

 

[BridgesWithTurtles]

I really hope that Ryu slows down and has an echoed voice effect when KO'd in a stamina match.

 

[Deleted member]

And... here's this!

[WolfieXVII ❂]

Now I just need Akuma confirmed for SFV
AND THE RYU AMIIBO TO NEVER BE IN STOCK

[Champ Gold]

My guess is we might be getting more than SF music, we might get some Final Fight, Rival Schools and more Capcom fighters

Totally love how Ryu's are divided in half at opposite ends of the gallery =p

For some reason I feel like I'd prefer Roy's sixth as his default stock icon

 

[Zeth444]

EX Fireball: Press A and B at the same time.

A+B is The input for an instant F-smash. So no.
I dont think there will be metter, looks like something that would be shown on The trailer. Not The metter itself, but at least The would show an Ex attack, to make people especulate: "Will he have metter or They just chose to use Fire Haduken instead do regular?"

PS: NO EVIL RYU SKIN?!?!?!

 

[CyberWolfBia]

I'd love to have some Darkstalkers music!

Data mining confirms the new characters don't have custom specials, so Shakunetsus would have to be either charged Hadokens or run on the Super Meter.

 

[PsychoJosh]

If it was charged then it would probably be a Denjin, not a Shakunetsu.

 

[SmashShadow]

Not gonna lie, Ryu looks sick! Plus, he has all the moves I predicted him to have as his specials when I made my moveset for him when the leaks started.

 

[BridgesWithTurtles]

Ryu has some of my favorite palettes. I think I'm going to be using that all-white alt. It reminds me of Akira Yuki, though that was probably the intention.

 

[Zeth444]

Besides that black ink thing, it wasnt hard to Guess his moveset. Talking about the ink thing, how does it work?
Ps: I thought it would be that thing where The SF character takes The damage and then started healing it instead of The ink punch.

 

[Spinosaurus]

UMvC3 gave Ryu a Ken and Evil Ryu colour. Don't see why Smash didn't.
