Lord_Vega

😍😍

I was pretty disapponted by that. No Falke or any of the other NS members... Although we had that badass stage, 5 months to only have Ed kinda let me down....

It seems it can use Psycho Power. Lol

Source?

Yep! However, things coming from capcom usa are usually taken with a grain of salt... unless it's from a jpn producer/director. Even in SFV there are things that were wrong in the localization.... That was the initial thought back when SFZ3 came out. Decapre resembled like Cammy because of her hair (pigtails). Since it was said that she hails from Russia, it was a safe bet that she was kidnapped, enhanced like Juni and Juli and that a clone was made with Vega/Bison's DNA in the mix. However... when Decapre was revealed in Ultra Street Fighter IV, producer Tomoaki Ayano gave the following statement: "We plan to talk more about her play style and abilities in the future, but for today we’d like to explore her story. For those not in the know, DECAPRE IS A CLONE OF CAMMY. At a quick glance she does look like a scary Cammy with a mask." Two years later, Street Fighter V director Takayuki Nakayama, answered a question about the matter a few weeks after A Shadow Falls was released (open X to see the trend): capwpanda: I'm sorry, but I'd like to know which is the big sister, Cammy or Decapre? takaNakayama: Don't know if "big sister" is the correct term, but Cammy is the oldest. It's defined (Decapre) as a clone of Cammy. capwpanda: Is there a reason for them having different birthdates? I thought that Decapre was the oldest because of her appearance and close birthdates... takaNakayama: I feel there' s a one year difference. Shadaloo is known for controlling the aging speed. Like with Abel. Since Cammy DOES have a birthyear or age mentioned in some games (16 yo while she was at Shadaloo and 19yo during SF2, also her dog tag mentioned this info even during the Zero era), she might not have been submitted to aging speed... unlike Decapre. About the clones being blond with blue eyes.... it's actually less DNA meddling. I'm no geneticist, but you need to activate several genes in order to get darker phenotypes. That's the same reason the first clones (as far we know) were females (remember Dolly? Hum, Dolls, Dolly, Dolly Parton., big breasts, Juli....). I don't think so. They age faster to age of combat (circa 15-18 years) and to be able to use some Psycho Power. That's the case with Ed, he was able to use it when he got rescued by Bison/Balrog while pretty young, his powers grew as he got older (he even tried to "Psycho Shot" Urien), and when the aging process got complete, he can snatch his opponents with Psycho Web. LOL Could also be under Ring of Power stage.... It's not degeneration from her creation. Besides, have you guys ever noticed that Decapre's USF4 mask has a crack right where Cammy's left cheek scar is? Probably Decapre got her face burnt from a mission or even training. However, I really would like to know what Psycho Contamination is.... About the scars, those are just production notes and instructions of how it should look (darker rougher, etc). The top right even mentions "something sharp. Balrog/Vega?" Actually, the S.I.N. stage wasn't for making Seths. That was in a secret lab where Mike Bison was in charge to take care. The actual stage is actually a exact description of what Smart/Smalt Raven before finding Vega, but i don't think it's the same location.

From previous discussion, we concluded he was kidnapped at a very young age. The jpn sources hint that. Ed himself mentions, on the 2018 april fools Side Reader story that he couldn't even recall the face of his parents. Also it was never mentioned of him being created from scratch in a lab, like Abel (and Seth) was. He was always mentioned as being the young who was experienced on. The localized text mentions he was made in a lab, but I think in the jpn actually mentions he was raised, or grew up in a lab. You're right about the Dolls, with the exception of Decapre, who is Cammy's clone. Totally looks like it, but that wouldn't make much sense. The whole place got engulfed in lava as soon Ryu, Chun-Li, Li Fen and Guile left the Inner Sanctum. The same happened with the Secret Laboratory in SFIV where that machine (BLECE?) fell to a lava lake, taking the fighters inside with it. If that's the case, then SF6 Ed story might lead to him finding Falke. Remember SFV wasn't a linear story.... He did? I think that he will take over Neo Shadaloo now, even though he doesn't want to. I think @YagamiFire is from Germany. He might help.

I think that @bakfromonhad it scanned in a (Psycho) Drive. Don't remember if it's the original jpn scan or the english one. I only got the first volume in english (and a few chapters published on Gamest). The second one isn't easy to find, and when I do it's pretty expensive.... I can do a rundown video of the first volume if you'd like. He looks awesome! Can't wait for his WT interactions!

TMNT in SF6 showcase. Sorry, although I love TMNT, I'm not buying these, no lip sync? C'mon! NOTE: Mike's smiling while pushing Manon to the fire was weird AF! The original TMNT 1987 theme song, sung by "Luke" (Aleks Le was asked to sing it using Luke's voice LOL). Really think he should have screamed "Cowabunga!" in the end.... BTW, for some weird reason (copyrights?), the original vocals can't be used anymore since the Cowabunga Collection last year....

I need to fully watch it but I already noticed some wrong info. Like SF1 being a tournament and Ryu feeling some kind of energy to defeat/scar Sagat... Besides, he also uses the 30th Anniversary profiles as source of info. Those weren't written by Capcom, but by 2 researchers at Digital Eclipse and are packed with inaccuracies... mainly how Nash dies. Big red flag. But kudos to him for having the video done. I can only imagine the insane amount of work to research all of the (convoluted) SF lore. 😍

Still copy/paste of the Thunderfoot story😅. Vega and Shadaloo wanted the TF land because of the ore mines (at least that was the reason back in SSF2) present there 30 years prior SF2. I'm not totally sure if the fact that it's a sacred ground could have any impact on Psycho Power. I can't find any source confirming that.

Fake Mike Bison/Balrog Fake Balrog/Vega Fake Sagat (wonder what's the story behind his scar LOL) Low Rank Shadaloo soldiers How original... copy/paste of the Thunderfoot's story. Interesting nevertheless.

You mean his arcade story? I see. Let's see if there'll be anything interesting while you bond with him.

If they at least name his female friend, known as "eyepuzzledurmom", I'll be happy.

Maybe he went back to their village?

Do you have a screenshot of those?

From the "Capcom vs Osamu Tezuka" exhibition in Japan.

Don't forget the "Rose is stuck in a timeloop" arc.... Not sure if that wasn't a mistranslation/localization error. Li-Fen calls Chun-Li "Miss!" in the localized version while in the original jpn she calls her "Big sis!" Chun-Li being in Metro City was purely for plot and WT gameplay reasons (the same goes for Jamie. So now Yun and Yang protected Metro City Chinatown?) so that Li-Fen could be kidnapped by Mad Gear. There was a stage in China where she or Jamie could be.

It's sad that Zangief's patriotism was wiped out of his character interactions in SF6. Possibly because of the whole Russia/Ukraine war. Me too. Her affirmation about Chun-Li's sabbatical and Viper are pure bollocks unless confirmed by other means.... In SFV, Viper mentions that the reason Juri wasn't in prison was because she wasn't her primary target. I was kinda surprised that she eliminated the hackers that worked on the Black Moons project.

"Beat Square Stories"... in japanese. 😅 Cool! We'll have side stories!

LOL! It's you who stubbornly keep bringing this up from time to time to see if I have something new to say/show. The story can be reverted according to the narrative Capcom wants to follow. They are the owners of the franchise. If they want to revert the story, they can. They can make SF1 a tournament again. They can say that Gouken is dead again. It's their franchise and they can tell the story that best suit their needs. And right now (at least until today), what they have given us about Vega's fate at the end of SF2 is: How many times over the past 14 years "Vega committed suicide with the explosion of his base" was mentioned in the SF lore? Answer: NONE! And they had quite a few chances to do so, like in the SF4/SSF4 artwork book, SSF4, SSF4AE, USF4, SF5, the Shadaloo C.R.I. profiles, SF5 AE, USF2, Street Fighter 30th Anniversay Collection, SF5CE, (I won't count SF6 because we don't have the whole story yet), How to Design Capcom Fighting Characters, Street Fighter Beyond the World, Street Fighter - Those Stronger Than Me (the artbook sold at the SF exhibition), SFVClimax Arts and I didn't even counted the compilations like Artworks Ha and Artworks Kiwami. How many times Capcom showed (or referred to) us Gouki defeating/killing Vega after that obscure trailer was released? -USF2 (the latest installment of SF2. they could have just removed the SGS cutscene if they didn't want it there. but... guess what, Capcom even REVAMPED it from HD Remix with Vega throwing the cape before being SGS. Just like they did wth the Hyper SF2 Anniversary Edition); -SF5AE (The picture above, Gouki's SF2 path ending is the only one that shows Vega mortally wounded); -SF 30th Anniversary Collection (although I don't count those profiles as canon because of inconsistencies/errors, it does mention Vega losing to Gouki. Capcom of Japan even reprinted the All About Street Fighter book in their collector's edition with the real SF japanese story); -The 2019 April Fools joke with G. It shows Gouki SGS Vega. Honorable mention: Daigo Ikeno mentions that Vega's alternate, torn, costume in SF4 was designed after his fight with Gouki. Who knows if Ikeno knew about the obsecure suicidal trailer. Can Capcom change their mind and say that Vega commited suicide, with or without fighting Gouki? Yes they can! It's their franchise. But that's not the message they are sending at the moment. And... to be honest, I highly doubt they will touch with that part of the story again.... Maybe with the master/pupil interations, something might might be mentioned (which I don't see it happening as they almost didn't touch the games endings. Dhalsim SF2 ending where he's seen coming home traveling atop of Kodal after a tournament was one of the rare cases). Until then, Gouki SGS and killing Vega is the latest statement of what happened. Acctualy, that was a rumoured leak. Although making sense, Capcom officially never mentioned anything about this.
