I made a video of the Top 5 Missing Characters From Super Street Fighter IV:
#5 Eagle This stick carrying Brit was your second opponent from England in Street Fighter 1. It took some time before Eagle saw a rebirth in Alpha 3 for the PSP and Capcom vs. SNK 2. The guy deserves another shot damn it. We dont want to have these characters to have their most lasting effect on gaming is that crappy ending dialogue.
#4 Sean Ok Sean is not much of a fan favorite, far from it. When word got out that Ken had an apprentice in Street Fighter 3, everyone started to pick Sean. Then everyone stopped because he sucked with his stupid basketball projectile. But think how touching it would have been to have Sean meet Gouken, his teacher’s teacher. It would be an emotional moment up until the point Gouken beats Sean’s sorry ass.
#3 Alex This should have been a gimme choice. Alex was the leader character for the Street Fighter 3 series making Ryu take a back seat for the first time. So why not bring him back instead of all the other non-major characters of Street Fighter 3? Yeah he showed up on Tatsunoko vs Capcom, but seriously, how many people are playing that game? Uh oh, I think I just heard Wii fanboys yelling at me right now.
#2 Urien A favorite among Third Strike fans, Urien was a thinking man’s character. The Aegis Reflector super move was incredibly useful against almost any opponent with the exception of Chun Li who was overpowered as fuck. Besides, looking at his moves, you can see the resemblance between him, Seth and Abel making for an interesting storyline addition.
#1 Rolento Simply put, Rolento is a badass. He was so badass that Capcom was afraid that SNES owners would have their own heads explode because of his bad-assery so they kept him out of the home version. At least that’s our theory. Seriously though, with Cody and Guy returning, why not bring back on of their nemesis as well? In the Alpha series, Rolent was fun to use, a comboing machine, and had one of the sickest supers ever, the pull you up by a thin rope and hang you on a hook like a pig while he throws a grenade at you move or whatever it’s officially called.
