SRK's Random Fighting Game Trivia Thread

The ultimate answer to your trivia question was certainly Daytona from Fighters Megamix

Hehe, other choices could’ve been Edi.E from Final Fight Revenge, Hol-Horse w/ Boingo, and Cheng from RBS.

And the character(s) Dan’s parodying is Ryo and Robert. The ironic part is that Ryu, Ken, Ryo and Robert were made by the same guy. :lol:

In Street Fighter EX+ Alpha, the moves that Cycloid Beta uses are based on which characters?

Kairi, Blair, Skullomania, Pullum, Allen, Ryu, Chun-Li, Akuma, Doctrine Dark and Garuda

Why did Capcom create Dan Hibiki?

I think it was because snk created Ryo in response to Ryu

It was Capcom response to ryo.

almost but not quite

Dan was made to poke fun at ryo / robert and art of fightings weird taunt and fighting system. He wears the similar clothing, taunts, and has a pathetic fireball.

Thats what Dan does. It is not why he exists.

  1. Duck (FF)
  2. Matlock (Karnovs Revenge/Fighters History Dynamite)
  3. Birdie (FS/SFA)
  4. Chief Thunder (Killer Instinct)
  5. Heavy D (KoF98)
  6. Jack (WHP)

I’ll post the answer to keep things moving.

Ryo was believed to be a combination of Ryu and Ken. Capcom got “revenge” by creating Dan, who was a combination of Ryo and Robert.

Fun fact: Dan’s fireball fizzles out to mimick the SNK spirit gauge’s feature of actually stopping an ability mid-execution if the gauge ran out (I think it was spirit gauge, if not it is one of those systems).

Good catch, Nocturnal! :tup: Other chars that (surprisingly) weren’t mentioned were Zangief and Seth.

Yeah, it was the spirit guage from Art of Fighting. Which was an idea that (thankfully) wasn’t carried over to any other game.

Also a bit of fun Dan-related trivia for ya, SNK did its on parody of Dan in KOF 2000 by having a striker-version of Robert in Ryo’s gi (hence giving him the appearence of Dan), and he does an uppercut when he comes out (which Robert didn’t have from '99-2001).

Let’s see here…ah, here’s a tricky one. What fighters have used music that wasn’t originally made for the game it was used in (music specifically from other games don’t count)?

What you didn’t capture is that he actually wears pink as his Kick color. :wink:

Let’s see…I know Krauser uses “Dies Irae” by Mozart in all of his appearances.
Adelheid has Chopin’s “Revolutionary Etude” in 2003.

Condor from Breakers / Breakers Revenge has a mohawk aswell.

Damn! I knew I forgot someone. Good catch. ^^

Nice, Return of Shiki, I didn’t think anyone would get that so quickly. :wink: And something told me to see what the other color was. Actually, I think I’ll do that now just for completion’s sake. :tup:

Also Dio from Jojo’s B.A. lol. I liked the Daytona car answer though.

Questions are still up.

^^Didn’t someone answer SFA3 sprites? And possibly the noggie>throw intro?

The first game with air juggle combos was Champion Edition, it was a glitch that only air juggles would work on him.

You just did lol.

        hitchhiking/wandering?
