Even if someone does come up with the right answer based on all the hints, would he even confirm it? If not, then what's the point?
I wouldn't be surprised if people have already guessed the answers based on the hints multiple times now. But since he won't or can't confirm it's just and endless loop.

To anyone doubting Frank West, he is already in the CG trailers. He was the Helicopter Pilot..
Just gonna throw this out there:
Usually, whenever SRK mentions a "donjon" or "doujin" fighting game, they are often referring to a "girly" fighting game(Melty Blood, Arcana Heart, Vanguard Princess etc). Doujin fighting games typically have an all (or mostly all) female cast.
Let's add to the fact that he's constantly been mentioning Jem, a female. Let's also add that the tweets pointing to a nsfw cover with tentacles or whatever that someone dug up(props to that person, but I can't find your post).
Hey, look. It's a red character, who happens to be female. Maybe it's not one of the characters depicted, but I'm still guessing a red female is probably our safe bet and we should go from there.

GAF stands for gaming age forum, the meme could be adding age to the end of topics ala sales-age, girl-age. Not sure if that had been posted or if it would help anything at all.enzo_gt said:

I'm too bored at work to give up.
Anyway, on Saki:
I don't know much about the game/character outside of that, but it's interesting.

Yellow Fever is a not particularly pleasant nickname for a fetish of Asian men or women. It's a case of looking for too many clues within a single clue (As Lupinko warned about). Yellow fever doesn't mean yellow jacket. Can just mean an Asian character which opens it back up again.
Also, thinking about NeoGAF memes. This one became very popular for a while and I believe started off at NeoGAF and SRK at the same time thanks to TheSwitcher posting up his rather hilarious stupidity compilations on both sites and the youtube poop that followed.

OF COURSE! It's Dictator. Maybe.
Helps that this motherfucker is very red, too.

I'm still trying to link this to the other hints but I found this very interesting...
http://www.tv.com/street-fighter/strange-bedfellows/episode/239911/summary.html
That leads to a plot summary of an episode from the 1996 cartoon Street Fighter in which Guile and Bison team up. Bison, of course, WEARS DAT RED. Also, the name of the episode is Strange Bedfellows.
One of the voice actors in the episode is Janyse Jaud. She also does voice work for My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. MLP is a recurring meme on gaf that is pretty common in avatars.

doujin game = Japnese indie game ,a category which AH and MB (not anymore) don't fall into. It's not necessarily girly.
See: Vanguard Princess, Akatsuki Blitzkamf (was originally doujin), Big Bang Beat, Monster, Immaterial and Missing Power
so your guess is off the mark.

I think what Chibi might be hinting at is that the "one-time relationship of a dubious nature" has nothing to do with sex at all (though it might), but more importantly, the "relationship" is about a cross-over. So, really, we should be looking for red characters that have had crossovers, maybe in a doujin, though it's not clear how literal that part is.

Instead of the doujin meaning, why not try out the dungeon meaning of donjon. It's defined as the inner tower, keep, or stronghold of a castle. Bison's headquarters in SFA3 were located inside of a statue of a Thai deity.
Let's break down the 'close but so far thing'.
The crossover thing could be that the character has appeared in a crossover game before or that two sides crossed-over. Good and evil for example. Would you consider a volcano a dungeon?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZRBuTw9L1A#t=12m52s
Bison and Guile 'crossover' inside a volcano after being tricked by Akuma. This is a one night stand because it is short-lived and only happened once. It was out of left field because you'd never think that they would EVER team up because they are mortal enemies.

Because dungeon is the typical, dictionary meaning of donjon. Lupinko said that the word was specifically coined by him on SRK, thus it's a reference to anime fighting game engines, or something like that.

Red clue is clearly for Zangief the Red Cyclone. Ok maybe I just want to play some Mecazangief.
Have they deconfirmed Firebrand yet? Because he's in SVC Chaos and is about as red as you can get.

Alright, so let's lay out the argument for Bison:
1) Mighty Max has the M on his head; "M" Bison.
2) Lots of red.
3) The above episode is called "strange bedfellows".
4) Lupinko reminded us that the tweets could apply to Capcom during a time when we were only considered Marvel character (oh, and Red Arremer - lolz).
5) Definitely "horny"; I'm sure he doesn't just have these girls around for assassinations:
http://streetfighter.wikia.com/wiki/The_Dolls
Anything else?

Also highly relevant, but I don't think "dark as knight" would apply to Bison...

Mind = blown?
Edit: I'm going to write up everything for Sparda. Lupinko and Chibi were right - it's all so obvious. If only I had ever played a DMC game, I might have caught on earlier...

Hmm no Carnage? If it's not Juggernaut...Cyclops sees red as in red glasses, red optic blasts, and he likes red heads. He's also a motherfucker of both Jean Grey and her clone Madelyn Pryor in both the literal and figurative senses having fathered several kids with said red heads only to abandon themcrimsonspider89 said:

No, Dante's costume is from when he attempted to disguise himself as Sparda in one of his games. It's not an actual SPARDA alt. It's still Dante.
Sparda evidence:
1) http://shoryuken.com/forum/index.ph...-be-a-super-mvc3.132023/page-190#post-5572330
We are looking for something that fits a Dark Knight:
http://devilmaycry.wikia.com/wiki/The_Dark_Knight_Sparda
2) Chibi mentioned "horny red", and he definitely has horns.
3) The numerous Vergil and Dante hints that we all thought pointed to Vergil.
4) The strange human-demon sexual relationship.
5) Lupinko reminded us that his tweets are not company-specific.
6) Numerous "devil" hints.
