I just compiled a list of ideas that originated in SF: Movie (Anime of course) that were later adapted to the game. So this list is the movie influencing the game. Let me know if I’m missing anything.
Ryu/Ken vs. M. Bison in SFA
M. Bisons ship background in SFA2
Cammys red hood/jacket
Australia background SFA2
alpha Sagats grab (cut from movie)
M. Bisons teleport
M. Bison fighting with cape on
a buff M. Bison, was thin SF2 series
Zangief cape in intro
Ryu carrying bag?
Ken Seattle?
Kens SFA2 ending, gives Ryu bandana
Chunli SFA2 ending, Interpol
numerous Chun-Li Interpol references in SFA3 endings
i forgot about ken getting brainwashed in sfa3 and then m.bison makes him fight ryu. also, i know ryu carries his white backpack in SF3, does he have this in any of the alpha games?
I just wanted to thank everyone for contributing. Here is the most up to date list. I knew there were a lot of references in the games but I didn’t realise there were this many.
