How did SNK put blatant SF copycat characters like this without feeling ashamed?

They could easily compete with Capcom when it came to aesthetics and gameplay. They really didn't need to do this bush league stuff.

SNK owned up to it in Capcom vs. SNK 2.

Riddle me this, nerds.
>Capcom releases Commando in 1985
>SNK releases Ikari Warriors, a Commando ripoff, in 1986
>Capcom releases Street Fighter II in 1991
>SNK puts the Ikari Warriors, who were created before Guile, in The King of Fighters '94 with the same moveset as Guile
Who was in the wrong here?

There's way more similarities than simply being American military.

The important thing is that you fed him attention instead of ignoring his obvious troll post.

SNK effortlessly copies Capcom characters just to show that they can, while Capcom desperately tries to compete with SNK's cute girls and fails miserably every time.

Both heavily inspired by Val Kilmer's Iceman character in Top Gun.

hmm, interesting.

Too bad the one game where they made her chubby isn't retro

One certainly was.

>Capcom copies
Anon is a corporate cuck. Because the creator of SF was the one responsible for those games, his ideas, and his creative effort. And Capcom “copies” a lot too.

Guile wasn't in SF1.

Yeah, but FF and SF2 came out in the same year. Nishitani already had that idea during the games’ development. I feel like it’s just people who got their asses kicked in the arcades and are butthurt, and since KOF isn’t popular in the English-speaking world, it takes all the flak. The criticism is “muh kuso,” but players just don’t know how to interact with the mechanics or don’t want to. And you know what? SNK isn’t even that big in the countries where KOF sells well. In the main regions where people play SNK games, Capcom games are even more popular than SNK games, since only KOF and Metal Slug are popular in those places. Other SNK franchises are popular only in Japan or random countries like Pakistan.

John Crawley plays nothing like Guile. His personality is the opposite of Guile's.
John Crawley is a PTSD-ridden war veteran (turned assassin) that has almost no redeeming qualities except for some regret shown in his AoF2 ending.

That's not as bad as it seems because everyone who does karate wears a gi, Ryu and Ryo are both normal names, an uppercut is a basic bitch movie, and Kamehameha predates Hadouken.
