It was AASFZ3, together with all the other dolls. The nationality uncertainty with Juli and Juni likely comes from the fact that the SFZ3 console versions continued their story development from their briefness as secret playable Vega “clones” in the arcade. Back then all the dolls had nationalities nailed down, but things changed later on for Juni and especially Juli while the other dolls, unchanged in gaming purposes from arcade to console, retained their original given nationalities. Heck, even J&J’s stats in AASAFZ3 said hailing from: ??? while stating at the same time within the general dolls’ descriptions that they’re German, so already there were contradictions in an All About book no less.
Here are the rest of the arcade flyer notes requested by Golden Dragon. As I had said, some parts were blurry, but I feel I did my best piecing things together.
SF2 WW flyer, minus special attack sentences.
Vega
Really what is he? Where did he come from?
As his aspiration is the same as his aim at a fighting stylist but, his methods were mistaken. His body wrapped up in an evil aura, he attacks with a fist of hatred. Self-introduced as the strongest, he desires the name of fighting stylist king.
Dhalsim
For the sake of a young child an isolated fighter struggling alone.
As one who uses the power of yoga improving through wounds, admonishing himself of the necessary evil and such, also struggling daily.
Zangief
Stirred up in perestroika he came around as he should, the steel-bodied man. Having wanted to learn wrestling from the time he was very young, incidents of the piledriver, the brain buster, a grade of flashy moves mixed in, he established an original pro wrestling.
Chun Li
With her father of the narcotics investigations division become unaccounted for, she journeys the world in order to know the circumstances. Chun Li having become a detective herself, the recollections at last, the evil enormous organization “Shadoloo” a matter wriggling back will be ascertained. However, as for the rumored distant shadowed boss “Vega” really where is he likely to be?..
Edmond Honda
His weapon a bighearted personality, “In the world, the sumo’s magnificence will surely be recognized.” he says, and he journeys out, a Japanese sumo wrestler. Bearing the “disposition” of the Japanese as a pinch, he cuts his own way through.
Ryu
For the sake of aiming at the true fighting style, he wanderingly journeys. His rival Ken in America doing warrior training and hearing of it he proceeds overseas. Completed, will this time’s journey bear fruit to the true fighting style?..
Major Guile
With a comrade “Nash” from the same unit killed, he journeys out for revenge. Parting from also informing a wife and daughter…“I have a feeling on a man called Vega…the man uses psycho power freely to…guuuh…”. Nash’s final words as a hand took him…
Ken
Having approved Ryu as a skilled rival, they once again meet for the promise of together becoming stronger. Ken had come back to America for warrior training, the past smell of blood forgotten, immersed in the sweet times and his love. However, from Ryu’s brief letter, his sleeping fighting style, the hot blood boiled, “Alright, a hundred sets of shoryukens. Just you wait Ryu!”
Blanka
Very young at the time the airplane crashed, with his opponent as Mother Nature in the jungle he grew up a wild infant. It is conjectured also unsettled from that large build how he can move with such speed. Really where are his honorable parents probably?..
And some SF3 quotes from-Japanese-to-English transitions requested by Hcparker. For Chun Li, I’m unable to locate which general quote turned into her bracelets quote, since I can’t find any of her Japanese quotes saying about bracelets, so here’s the English one in question created by Capcom USA:
“No, I’ve never thrown any of my bracelets away. Why do you ask?”
for Ryu wins against Necro:
NG and 2I quote originally:
"With that the limit of your moves, it’s impossible to surprise me!"
NG and 2I quote Cap-USA-ized:
“You can’t surprise me with those moves! I used to beat this man from India…”
Sean’s quotes changed even more:
one of his NG general quotes after you won a match that could’ve gone either way:
originally in Japanese:
"Yo! Thank you very much!"
in Capcom USA’s hands it turned into:
"Don’t call me Dan!“
another of his NG general quotes, this time seen if you barely win the match:
originally:
”#1! Never give up!"
the transition:
“Rule #1, never give up! Rule #2, don’t fight me! Rule #3, don’t be like Dan!”
aerialgroove, I’ll check on the material from the SF2 pre-mook AKA Gamest #64 that you asked and report back soon. For the Zangief pic, it might very well be Dug from FF1 whom Zangief’s grabbing, but I can’t guarantee that it is him. They do look quite alike though. :wow:
I guess it’s not like I haven’t seen more nonsensical things in the Street Fighter plot. :lame:
