Based on one move? That actually don't sound a good excuse there. I guess we might have to wait until SFVI to see if he actually reconsidered once again.

Oh nice it's Bull Nakano.
Personally I want Irish representation that doesn't involve alcohol or explosives.
AGREED.
As an American man of Dominican (Republic) origin, I'd like to see a representative that's better than this asshole, which is (to my knowledge) the only example of a major publisher like Capcom having a Dominican character in their game:
(That is, until that dude from the GTA IV side game came along)
At this point, it doesn't matter, anywhere from the big or small Antilles will do.
same a dominican character would be nice.

welp, since i'm from switzerland, one would be nice.... but at least we got this guy in guilty gear, lol
I know Japan is well represented in the SF universe but I always wanted to have a fighter with the Yakuza tropes. The cool looks with the good looking suits, the tattoos, the mysteriousness, and a cut of finger. I also would like to see a fighter from Cambodia with the Bokator fighting style.

They can do so much more with geographic representation, but I wouldn't want an Italian pizza guy or beer-guzzling Aussie with a cork hat who throws magic crocodiles or some shit. But then again....
That would be cool though! He could be a cardinal with ecclesiastical magic or something.

Mike, Joe, Retsu, lee and Geki were never playable characters though, they were all SF1 opponents.

I agree that Canada needs a better character and just more in general (as long as they aren't stupid stereotypes).

not sure if they have this character but a greaser styled dude with leather jacket would be cool too

PERFECT! I'm in!The closest you'll get is Yoko Harmageddon, who is R Mikas Coach and head of her Wrestling league.
Now, I'm mad. Another whitewashed character. (With an ugly hairdo. WTF is on her face?)Oh....prepared to be dissapointed...

Santamu was retconned into being from Ethiopia actually. Which makes no sense but eh.
She actually looks more Asian now though.
Oh, hell yes! I love me a big afro, especially on a woman.

Yeah, gotta agree. He really is one of the most memorable SF characters, filled with personality in everything he does.Abigail is one of the best Newcomers to Street Fighter in ages, You Canadians should be proud of the guy!

Need an Irish character to represent.

I always saw TK as being the fighting style rep as opposed to the nationality rep. The way they put so many variations on the same generic style was always pretty cool (there are like 6 different karate characters and only two use the same actual style).
Santamu was retconned to Ethiopian in SFV.
It wasn't confirmed, but it's heavily hinted that they're either Greek (fighting style and dress), Indian (gem, powers, and lore), or Egyptian (base of operations).

Have a character and level from Nauru. If you pick a character from Europe and play in that level, the rightfully pissed natives in the background start hurling bird crap at you for destroying their environment and economy.

Yeah....though she is kinda whitewashed though. That hair. Still, she and Dudley are easily the best black representatives of the series thus far and yet neither got into V. Such a shame.

After the Raid movies, Indonesian Silat user.

He used to be a thug in Alpha and in SF1. He's "reformed" but he's still not exactly a good character. Still an improvement from thug though.
Sean's brazillian, and Laura's brother. He's brown.
If Maple Syrup isn't involved in his CA somehow, then the character was not worth including.
Word! We need a pretty boy (light or dark skin don't matter) Bachatero/Merengero that would charm all da ladies in the SF cast (Except Juri. That girl cray) and would beat down any hater. The soundtrack for his stage would be a merengue tipico. Screw it, make the Dominican character a female respected elected official that isn't corrupt, is T H I C C but isn't dressed like she going to da beach. lol.AGREED.

I forgot about Menat. Yeah, I'm excited about her.
Well, there's Maple Storm:
Well I don't want to go too out of my league here but bring Brazilian doesn't mean he can't be black since it does have a substantial black population. I do know he is part Japanese on one side.

She was considered for SFV but they felt that her gameplay is weak so they cut her.
This would've been so much better than what we got. I hate Ono's insistence that every single "big" character has to be LOLGROTESQUESOFUNNY

Brazilians are black. Trust me, I got into an extended discussion over this regarding Eddy and turned out being wrong.
