Here's what I believe... and here's what I believe in Japanese.

Guile William Guile (ウィリアム・ガイル, William Gairu?) is a video game character from the Street Fighter series, first appearing in Street Fighter II. He is a pilot of United States Air Force whose goal is to dest...

"Capcom source books suggest that Guile's famous hairdo is styled with a special-order army hair spray to keep it up, though he usually fixes it quickly after a match."

I've always told people that Street Fighter has the deepest lore in gaming. Go play Street Fighter 6. Dig into the story.

Also, Fortnite has an excellent Simpsons collaboration going on right now.

Capcom again says nothing on lore theories.

I'm still waiting for the day a Street Fighter game gets a perfect score.

EX doesn't count. Not canon. Slam Masters doesn't count either. I asked for mainline Street Fighter games, meaning SFI, II, III, IV, V, VI, and the Alpha series.

Ok. Love the deep dive, but how about playable characters?

Viper's definitely up there.

That's for you to decide.

We all argue who might be the strongest

But I wonder... who is the SMARTEST?

Whatever your criterion for the smartest character, whether lore, gameplay, or whatever, I want to know.

Who is the smartest character in Street Fighter?

We can definitely count Seth, but even though they were created to be intelligent, I don't see Seth as the smartest.

I definitely place Oro up there as one of the smartest.

I'm a Cubs fan. I appreciate the Dodgers for sweeping the Brewers, but I wanted the Blue Jays to win.

Magic number 162.

THIS GAME. WTF.

This is LITERALLY what I do with Street Fighter... with evidence!!!

Wait... WHAT.

Here you go, #FGCSKY.

Here's what I believe... and here's what I believe in Japanese.

We have to ask daddy Capcom that one. This wolf looks like a wolf cub. I'm certain it will cause no harm.

Awoooo.

Gooooooooooood morning, Shadaloooooo! Tell someone to use Bison dollars today.
Lots of things to click on this morning if you're looking for something to do. 🔽🔽🔽

Street Fighter.

I personally think Ibuki is the right character for them to build the overall narrative around, so take that how you will.

The problem is that Capcom themselves don't really want to partake in this, especially in the US. Japan has Street Fighter references in every possible place and Capcom seems content with being an exclusively Japanese IP. This is short-sighted.

I want to pitch @aftermath.site , but the problem is I'm a product guy who believes Street Fighter and its characters are due for a cultural revolution, which is sort of the opposite of what they're looking for.

The characters are familiar enough and the FGC thrives on grassroots messaging.
