Welcome Sano!

Yeah fun thing of SFV playable Ed with NS uniform is that he's technically non canon in SFV present, both as uniform and muscle mass lol

 

SFV standard costume in theory should have been his white hoodie one and much less muscular as we seen him with Rog in ASF events, NS uniform should still not even exist (so also playable Falke is not canon in current timeline)

 

Fun thing is all his quotes on contrary seems to reflect young correct Ed, he never mention Neo Shadaloo

 

In theory Standard NS costume of Ed should have been his Story costume (wich often represent a different time, usually past), but guess Capcom either thought white hoodie was just too simple/bland to be his official Standard look (style wise many urban clothes have been used as secondary Story costumes in SFV) or maybe they originally thought to add the birth of NS in SFV then they dropped the idea for whatever reason

 

 

 

Yeah it's funny that almost every Japanese game that I can think of that had a sequel they wouldn't move past, have all past said sequel in recent years.  

Zelda II The Adventure of Link - Nintendo never made a Zelda game that takes place after this for the longest time, and it's only the second game in the series! Every Zelda game that came out after it was a prequel, and then things get super wild when the timeline got split three ways. It wasn't until  Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild  (the director if that game is a former Capcom Employee BTW)  that Nintendo said it takes place after all of the Zelda games. We don't know if it takes place in the same timeline as Zelda II, a different timeline or if all three of the timelines merged at some point. Knowing Nintendo they may never tell us anyway.  

Devil May Cry 2 - Internally people at Capcom, and particularly Itsuno didn't like the game. So he made Devil May Cry 3 a prequel and Devil May Cry 2 was placed far in the future. So the order was 3, 1, 4, 2, and Capcom even released an artbook called 3142! But when Devil May Cry 5 came out, Itsuno wanted to end the Sons of Sparda saga, or at best give it a measure of closure. So the heck with an artbook title lol! The series order is now 3, 1, 2, 4, 5. So Devil May Cry 2 has two games that take place after it now ha ha!

Metroid Fusion -  Nintendo never made a game that takes place after Metroid Fusion, until last year when Metroid Dread came out.

There might be more examples but that's all I can think of. I'm glad that aspects of SFV take place after SF3 Third Strike, but we need a full game that does!  All signs point to SF6 going that way at least. 

Okay managed to figure out how to toss the images here. This is from the manga based on Street Fighter II V, which was serialized in Bom Bom Comics. The story is very different from the Street Fighter II V anime, was completely unrelated storyline-wise other than having similar character designs. It featured a very early version of 'evil' Ryu, which even predates Masahiko Nakahira's Satsui No Hadou Ryu in his Street Fighter Zero (AKA Alpha) manga. But, Capcom still credits Masahiko Nakahira with creating SNH / Evil Ryu and not this manga. When I discussed this with vasili10, he theorized that it was because the SF2V version was more 'demonic' and less about 'dark ki.'

I guess now this is pretty funny given how demonic Gouki AKA Akuma and Kage seem these days LMAO!

Welcome back man, Good to see here again.

 

I missed your SF2V manga stuff i cant access it anymore in madman cafe.

 

 

 

So I had the images up on Photobucket and I basically had to 'reawaken' the account which I just did. The images are still there. The old links however might not work since Photobucket has gone through a few overhauls over the last few years. I'll figure something out in a few days or so.

No problem. I have no idea when he'll finish though. Hopefully 2022 sometime. 

Hey it's Sano from Shoryuken.com. What's good!

Real name's Anthony Collado by the way. These days I run the fan page Capcompendium on Facebook, which is about every Capcom  game but Street Fighter comes up a lot. I also write for another page on Facebook called The  Bitten Apple. We do YouTube vids and I appear now and then. That's pretty much what I'm up to these days.

Last big storyline thing that came out about a month back,  it was revealed that there are parts of Street Fighter V that take place after Street Fighter III Third Strike. Here's a really good YouTube vids about that.  Apologies if it was posted already. 

I last talked to vasili10 about three months ago or so. He's working on an update to the Street Fighter Plot Guide.  Whenever he does finish it I'll be sure to share. 

Hope everyone is doing well and their loved ones are safe and healthy during the Coronapocalypse lol! Happy New Year!
