Why wasn't she the MC for SF3?
>>12633046Because the goal of Street Fighter III: New Generation was to make a game about a new generation of fighters who had not appeared in previous Street Fighter installments.
I love Sakura
>>12633046because zero2 to sf2 was a timeskip and sf2 to sf3 was a timeskip. Her youthful seifuku appeal would be gone, and Chun Li was already an 'adult' in SF2.
>>12633046I thought about it. She and Sean could be the main Karate characters. Make Sean and Sakura actually good, not bad on purpose too.
>>12633116When was Sakura bad?
>>12633069To this day they still have no idea what the fuck they're doing with Alex.
>>12633116Sean was actually a lot better in 2I, and Sakura was amazing in 4 (not retro I know.) She'd also be good in MvC2 if the best characters weren't as insanely broken by comparison to the rest of the roster.
>>12633182What are you talking about? He's obviously a blond hair blue eyed nordic, native american coded, new yorker, who dresses in a green overalls that he never wears up, wears army boots, and the red on his face is unclear whether it's facepaint or a tattoo, and he's a wrestler somehow and also a car mechanic.WHAT'S NOT TO UNDERSTAND?!?
>>12633046Sakura would be about 30 by the time of SF3.Also SF3 started development before A2.
>>12633483I think there was also some aborted connection to Gill.
>>12633046Because most men want to fuck her, they don't want to be her.
>>12633563I want both.
>>12633046why is she making that face?
>>12635060BECAUSE SHE'S BEEN PLEASURING OLD MEN FOR MONEYOHOHOHOHO
>>12633154every game she's appeared in
>>12635060She saw my dick :D
>>12633483He was supposed to be the main character but they got cold feet, never did much with him compared to how he was propped up, then they brought him back and made him put a baby in his sister and do a shitty job playing heel. He had a cool design and the hogan shit was cool to see but they have no idea how to make him a good character.
>>12633046Because she's be close to 30 something and thus lose all her appeal.
>>12635493>made him put a baby in his sisterwat
>>12635535In his SF6 ending he marries his step sister and then the whole internet collectively got the ick and threw a hissy fit.
>>12633182Anime Hulk Hogan, it's pretty simple
>>12635551holy based
>>12635551*western internet
>>12633116Isn’t Sean top tier in one of the early versions? I heard he got nerfed hard in third strike, but I only play fighters casually. Love the genre but I am the epitome of a casual.
>>12635070kek
>>12636070Sean is top 5 in both NG and 2i, he's only bad in 3S.
>>12635157???Sakura is one of the best characters in A2, A3 and CvS games.She's also good in SF4 and SF5 if you want to include non-/vr/ games.
Mika's sweaty buttcheeks >
>>12635551>step sisterCapcom is full of woke cowards
>>12636285Fair. Also she's a fun character in general, I wouldn't mind her being MC.
>>12633563>they don't want to be her.This is going to come as a shock to you, I realize, but not everyone is a pathetic moronic piece of shit self inserter who can't even process the idea of not making everything about their own worthlessness.
>>12636401take your meds
>>12636401I know. My post was half shitposting, but I was also making a guess about what the developers would think. Like even if you don't self-insert, a lot of people do. But also, a fighting game developer in the 90s would've wanted their new MC to be someone that most boys into fighting games would think is cool, someone they could aspire to be like. Alex makes a lot more sense than Sakura from that perspective.
>>12636510And I know obviously there were fighting games focused on cute girls, but Street Fighter was made for a more mainstream audience than those.
>>12636512Everyone in Japan loves sailor suit schoolgirls, anon.
>>12636552Granted, but that doesn't mean they always want them as the protagonists of their fighting games. People in Japan enjoy cool male characters too.
>>12635568couldn't be because he has the charisma of a wet noodle. The hulkster was walking hype
>>12636830But anon, he's stoic, says WAHH and speaks with southern accent!
