Isn’t Franco Bash from Fatal Fury Hispanic?

Yo soy hispano, no soy un alex valle pero amo Street fighter desde los 14, en este momento estoy jugando SSF4 pero me gustan mucho ST y el 3s es mi droga.

Ah, si, Gracias.

I did my presentation today I was supposed to do it on Wed but due to time constraints I couldn’t. I was planning on setting up my PS3 and demonstrating the Hispanic characters by getting the class involved in a little play, but I couldn’t figure out how to get the game to show up on the TV. Someone suggested hooking it up to the VCR but that didn’t work either. I think the TV wasn’t working right it looked like it was 20 years old. Instead I just did my PP presentation and added in a little extra info too. I later went on and went to the library to sign for a room and told her I needed it to demonstrate a film to my fellow classmates. I asked a random guy in the library if he wanted to play and we went in and played a good session of Tekken 6. He was bad I tell you. The two wins I gave him was to make sure he didn’t feel bad. Once he told him that he doesn’t get tired of losing I stopped going easy on him and then he got tired after 16 straight wins.

Where the hell is T Hawk? I am disappointed in you guys especially you, MP.

t hawk is native american,…isn’t he?
how’d you mix native american into mexican/chicano?
dude, dats racist!

anyhoo…just remembered there are 2 latinos in Black & Bruised boxing game.
the mex dude anfd the matador from spain.

i forgot, why are there so many KOF cabinets in mexico again?
and do these great KOF/SNK players ever get together and take trips to japan for japanese SNK tourrneys?

Nope he’s Mexican, his stage in SF2 is in Mexico IIRC.

Do a search for VTHawk and you’ll find it.

King and Armour King

^I’m surprised they weren’t mentioned until the second page!

@Tizoc, -you’re right. T Hawk is mexican.
just looked that up to make 100% sure.
i always assumed his origins was from the southwest of the usa.

signature worthy statement.
i hope when SRK makes the switch we can get less character limitations in our sigs.
i swear.
i’d like to quote this in my sig but it just won’t fit., not without erasing another quote.
how can i erase the golden words of wise men like iShotto and RoGE9???
somebody quote this in their sig for me.

U looked it up? Then didn’t u see this where it states that he is Native American? T. Hawk - The Street Fighter Wiki - Street Fighter 4, Street Fighter 2, Street Fighter 3, and more

thats exactly the site where i looked it up. but see where his birthplace/origin states…it states mexico as country of birthplace.
sure he’s native american but nationality is mexico.

Mestizo, eh?

Err I’d most likely take Vas’ words since his info is straight from the official Japanese Capcom books.

Leonhalt Domador

Aggressors of Dark Kombat

this is a weird one some sites say his actually German but I have played the game and he even yells some words in spanish

Lawrence Blood, El Blaze, CHristie Montero, bob wilson.

So since Bison is “Vega”, and Raul Julia played him in the movie. Is Bison a spanish dictator?

There was a really good hispanic soul calibur player. I want to say he won nationals one year? And he played bottom tier.

His name is escaping me at the moment.
