This character looks so cool.

So thanks to this reveal and the Ken Bogard leak, we can safely say we have 3 characters left to speculate on

.....hmmm i want to make a refrence but what oh ya
ITS OVER NINE THOU....ya no i wont make that one

[Oasis Dealer]

No to all the guesses. I'd suggest waiting until tomorrow for a better hint :3.

Also, I wonder if people will make a big stink about an Arabian character being revealed on September 11th. Why? Because, racists.

I realized that once I saw the character. Regardless, he looks pretty cool. Liking the new characters announced so far.

Man, if Karin and Alex are on this roster, then half the starters will be blonde.

seeing how years have past, people need to learn to get over it

Zen
(zĕn)
n.
1. A school of Mahayana Buddhism that asserts that enlightenment can be attained through meditation, self-contemplation, and intuition rather than through faith and devotion and that is practiced mainly in China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam. Also called Zen Buddhism.
2. also zen An approach to an activity, skill, or subject that emphasizes simplicity and intuition rather than conventional thinking or fixation on goals: the zen of cooking.

Gender is certainly ambiguous, but I wonder if this Zen character is named literally or named based off his personality or ideals.

If this Zen looks anything like Persona Qs Zen, then Im down

 

[Neo Zero]

Actually, if that leak is right, I'm going to bank right now on the TGS character.

Super hype event, in Japan, for a veteran. Karin is from Japan (in comparison Urien is unknown though clearly not Japanese and Alex is American). I'm going on record that I think we see Karin at TGS.

True dat.

The R.Mika and Karin part still holds water at least, the Alex and Urien I'm not so sure about.

You'd think it would make sense for Guile to be there since Charlie only now finally decides to show up, but I suppose it would make sense if Alex were under the classic characters section.

Honestly I can see why Guile isn't if story parts are added later. That's a HUGE payoff in Street Fighter lore and I doubt they wanna climax yet

 

[PushDustIn]

Well, someone on NeoGAF already did believe it or not.

So Laura might be revealed at Brazil Game Show. Probably.

Figured it was only a matter of time. It's sad, really.

No to all the guesses. Please wait until tomorrow!

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Does he have a scouter?

I don't know what that thing is, but I see scouter. Really digging his design regardless.

Hes gotta read those power levels bruh

 

[Spazzy_D]

So I just looked it up

Ken Bogard leaked Rashid before (the char name). He also leaked newcomers named Zen and Laura. Take that for what you will.

SFV characters:

-R. Mika
-Zangief
-Sim
-Juri
-Karin
-Ken
-Urien
-Alex
-Laura
-Rashid
-Zen
-New Boss

Not sure if this was based on something else. I'm honestly not keeping up too closely with leaks for this game, although it does look pretty hype.

Well, what can you do, when something happens in America, we just tend to make a big deal out of everything.

I can understand some people with love ones involved in that event taking it hard, I understand as well, but I don't think their loved ones would want them to lament on they behaves and just continue on and live life ahead of yourselves.

That's at least how I wanna see things. But for others, many people today would just like to be jerks or cause controversy just for the "fun" of it, and that really is sad indeed.

while they arent letting the past be in the past, you can spell "shut up" In Mario Maker and show them

Apparently the veterans aren't from Ken. I looked it up and saw that. Only the newcomers have any weight from Ken.

Was this leak before or after all the siliconera SF5 leak stuff?

 

[Senselessbreak]

While I don't have a problem with arabs, as an american veteran I do see why this reveal is a little offensive. Its a sensitive subject.and there's too many things that need to be respected.

Spoiler

I've well culturally versed and part of the job of being a soldier requires a lot of team work with Arabs, some who I can say will remain life long friends. The stereotype dies fast once you interact first hand. I guess this would be like revealing a plane dlc pack on this date, or releasing a game like hatred on an anniversary of columbine. Just something that should be considered

 

[Radical Bones]

I wish one of the SF newcomers was an Australian.

*grumbles about underrepresentation*

I'd even take the croc hunter cliche.

New Boss?

Someone leaks the game, but doesn't have the boss's name?

That's ridiculous! I say fake!

 

[Deleted member]

The game is littered with Mario Paint references. You can even do a trick that let's you play the fly swatting mini game in it.

I've seen the fly swatting minigame, I meant Mario paint composer

offensive? I dont find it offensive at all. I find the Character cool and I like that he is added.
What would really be offensive is if they had a new york stage with fire in the background

 

[Champ Gold]

My first thought of Rashid is that nobody never caught on to the reference yet. And @ Solfiner @TehEpicRyuga and @Rie Sonomura will back me up on this

Spoiler

It's Whammu.

Spoiler

And since Necalli is somewhat based off of Kars then if we don't get AC/DC, I'm gonna lose my mind

 

[Senselessbreak]

So I've been camping out for the new amiibo wave, and someone mentioned the shovel Knight amiibo and most are clueless who he is.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Its pretty bad to have the mindset of seeing an Arab character being in a SF game as offensive imo

 

[PushDustIn]

New post on Source Gaming. I talk about about the future of the site!

By the way, my current goal is to release the final results of the Japanese DLC research on Sunday to coincide with the 1 year anniversary of Smash 3DS in Japan. I have most of the data ready, but I need to investigate a couple of things.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Making courses in smm is going to be hard, wow.

Good thing I have tons of paper to brainstorm on

As for the whole "unrelated stuff being released on September 11=/= insensitive regardless of how logical the argument is" thing.. Well, these intelligent posts from this stupid topic on Gamefaqs are pretty much the best summary of how moronic and hypocritical people are.

Also, on the subject of this topic...

No games are to be released in the US on September 11th, or December 7th, or February 26th, of any year.
No games are to be released in the UK on July 7th, or July 21st of any year.
No games are to be released in Japan on August 6th, or August 9th of any year.
No games are to be released on er..... January 1st, January 2nd, January 3rd.... *three minutes later* December 30th, or December 31st, in any country whatsoever....

No games are to be released anywhere, ever again, in memory of the fact that sometime in history (officially defined as starting around 3200 BC), some major catastrophe involving the loss of life has happened on every single one of the 366 possible dates, in every country or state or whatever, in various years.

If people tried to avoid releasing games on every day that has had some horrific tragedy committed on the same day but a different year, no game would ever be released.

9/11/2001 is not the same day as 9/11/2015. Thank goodness.

Sure sucks for people celebrating birthdays on September 11th. Guess they don't get a birthday party because they have to sit around and mope.

Someone please explain how releasing this game on 9/11 is disrespectful. Are the spirits of the people who died from that tragedy gonna come after us if we try to do anything other than sit around and mope? We've spent more than enough time mourning, and paying our respects. Yes, I do feel bad about what happened, and I truly feel for the losses. But we're still alive, and we still have our own lives to live.

Yeah, but...but...this is different! This is America! Nothing bad is supposed to happen here!

"What about the Civil War?"

SHUT UP!


As an American, I am ashamed to see so many Americans with this "9/11 is worse than other tragedies because it happened here" mentality which is really what it's about. It's not right to downplay other tragedies just because you have no personal investment in them. Tragedy is tragedy. End of story.

[Das Koopa]

My viewpoint on Mario Maker: It looks cool, and I'll definitely pick it up. I was a top-half (roughly 7th-10th out of 60something) contestant to Vinesauce's SMBX contest this year, so I'm fully aware that Mario Maker is in many ways inferior to programs like Lunar Magic and SMBX.

But to be fair, Mario Maker will probably have more refined physics than SMBX does, and it's simplified and generally allows you to do a lot of special things. I think I'll end up preferring SMBX, but Mario Maker will be a more popular and widespread way of sharing levels.

"Can I Download a Nintendo ROM from the Internet if I Already Own the Authentic Game?

There is a good deal of misinformation on the Internet regarding the backup/archival copy exception. It is not a "second copy" rule and is often mistakenly cited for the proposition that if you have one lawful copy of a copyrighted work, you are entitled to have a second copy of the copyrighted work even if that second copy is an infringing copy. The backup/archival copy exception is a very narrow limitation relating to a copy being made by the rightful owner of an authentic game to ensure he or she has one in the event of damage or destruction of the authentic. Therefore, whether you have an authentic game or not, or whether you have possession of a Nintendo ROM for a limited amount of time, i.e. 24 hours, it is illegal to download and play a Nintendo ROM from the Internet."

Also

"Are Game Copying Devices Illegal?

Yes. Game copiers enable users to illegally copy video game software onto floppy disks, writeable compact disks or the hard drive of a personal computer. They enable the user to make, play and distribute illegal copies of video game software which violates Nintendo's copyrights and trademarks. These devices also allow for the uploading and downloading of ROMs to and from the Internet. Based upon the functions of these devices, they are illegal."

 

[Solfiner]

I make it a point to buy everything that's accessible to me instead of emulating. In some cases it's just impossible though, like importing Earthbound to Europe and having to mod your SNES pre-VC, or Fire Emblem 1-5.

 

[Burruni]

1.) The game was more Ogre Battle/Final Fantasy Tactics then it was Fire Emblem.

2.) It wasn't Sony's attempt at anything.

Check out that logo in the lower right.

TO BE FAIR I HAVEN'T TOUCHED THAT GAME SINCE I WAS 8.
AND YES I WAS A 8 YEAR OLD WHO BEAT THAT GAME AND GOT MORE OF THE HUMOR THAN I SHOULD HAVE.

Edit: And my parallel to Fire Emblem came more in the story itself, structuring of classes & promotions, and linear chapter-based battlles with little room to dare try to grind, while the isometric aspect of it does lend itself more to FFT. I haven't played Ogre Battle so I don't know on that comparison.

Are we talking about that Fire Emblem knockoff that was on Sony consoles and made by the creator himself resulting in a lawsuit from Nintendo?

Regardless, it looks like he's a good guy. Neat.
