The problem with three was that it replaced the entire roster, something they fixed by third strike by reintroducing old characters.

You can do the legacy thing, but it has to be phased-in. You can't replace an entire Series roster and then expect people to care.

And some of the new characters ended up being so popular that they were added back in to four and five.

The problem with SF3 was the decline of fighting games in general. Even then it only affected casuals.

It's dan hibiki. Was raised by nannies since neither Ryu nor Ken wanted to go home and be a family man.

Let me re-state. Your topic title is something you made up. It's not news or an announcement. To be accurate, it should say "Street Fighter VI should introduce the offspring of staple characters".

That's less than 70 characters. It fits.

Yeah Soul Calibur 5 tried to do a very similiar thing and it didn't end well for them, so Soul Calibur 6 is now doing a whole "reboot" thing, though I'm not sure if they're going to bring those characters back.

Cassie and Takeda were fairly popular. Jacqui got a redesign in 11 that was well-received also. The only character that people actively hated was Kung Jin, and... well its complicated because some people were not happy with his design, and others just hated how he played against you. Oh, and dont forget the people that just hated him for being gay. Something that the devs werent really heavy-handed with at all but whatever.

Theyre finally doing away with Ryu and ken I see. Good.

as much as it pains me, Ryu was repeatedly retconned by Capcom from stoic, methodical karate practitioner and champion of sf1 to emo, perpetually angsty practitioner of a made up art who cheated sagat out of his belt.

ken was repeatedly retconned from being the all-American alternative to ryu who is the US karate champion and rich and brash to a Japanese-American ameriboo who dyes his hair blond (because street fighters care about clairol!) that also practices a made up art and is not that rich and follows orders from the actually rich karim.

had they kept butchering these two we would find out that ryu has lost most of his fights and cries when he gets punched and ken gets cucked by Sean and karim

Nah, Ken was supposed to be "all American" then retconned to be half-Japanese (or quarter-Japanese).

A lot of international SF characters were retconned to have Japanese heritage for some reason lol

I dont understand how being Japanese at all contradicts being American. Unless by "all American" you mean "all white"

Blind jingonism.

sf2 had Honda and Ryu. Ryu is Japanese and the face of street fighter. My fave character was Ryu (before he was retconned to be an emo cheater).

the whole idea of ken was to add some variety to the shoto theme. But capcom gonna capcom

I meant someone whose family has been in America a super long time. I probably should have just said "white." >__>

It's why they had a white dude playing him in the live-action SF movie.

He is playing dumb. I mean ken even had blue eyes in sf4, everybody knows.

i also explained to him wed be just as annoyed if ryu were retconned to be some
white dude who dyes his hair black, but he is just posturing

Obviously Ken is at least part white as evident by his hair color and family name.

Like I said, him being part-white, part-Japanese , all-American has been my assumptions since childhood. I mean look at Ken's eyebrows lol and the fact that he knows Gouken?

Ken leaving to go to America makes sense. Besides, like Charlie and Guile are still there from team USA and still some of the most important characters.

If anything Japan was kinda underrepresented in SF.
