Wait does this mean that Ryu and Roy will be released same day as lucas?
He doesn't appear to be a full clone anymore. More like Falco. And he's only 4 dollars.
SFIII is yet to be released on a Nintendo system.I don't get the Ryu hate.
He was in more games on Nintendo consoles than Snake.
SF2 and SF3 were SNES games.
Jesus Christ, five Fire Emblem characters, two of whom are just Marth clones. Meanwhile we still only have two Donkey Kong characters.
Ryu's awesome though.
I wonder if we'll get all three characters tomorrow.
Normally, one would expect them to do a drip-feed release, I.E. one character a month. And in terms of promotional events, there are tie-ins. For example, EVO is in July. So is Fire Emblem's 25th anniversary celebration in Japan, where Sakurai will be a keynote speaker.
However, if all three characters were released tomorrow, they could sell them in a bundle, and have a more dramatic impact where, say, the Street Fighter fans might buy Ryu, but while playing online they'll fight Lucas and Roy, and those encounters may serve as a "suggestive sale" where they find themselves wanting to buy them, as well.
Tomorrow could introduce something akin to "season passes," starting with a Lucas/Roy/Ryu bundle — let's say three characters for the price of two, so you effectively get one free — and they could reveal a rough release schedule for the next "round" of characters, I.E. Fall 2015.
It'll be interesting to see how they approach this.
If each character was worth $4, the game would have cost ~$200. So it's not really "only".
I kinda hope Ryu and Roy don't come out tomorrow because I only have enough for my boy Lucas and i'm selfish.

The only good part about Roy coming back.
Surprised Ryu didn't get his big MvC Shinku Hadoken beam. Seemed obvious.

Too much Fire Emblem, jeez...
Add characters from other IPs like Donkey Kong or maybe stuff like Advance Wars or things from the Wario IP. Hell, even some of the original starters from Pokemon would be better (would love to play with each of the starters and be able to somehow evolve them through the fight or something).
But seriously, stop with the Fire Emblem characters!!!
Really? Probably has a super meter or something similar then. Thanks for the info.Shinkuu Hadouken is in the voice clips.

We don't know much outside of his fsmash and up b thoughRoy's moveset looks changed.

Damn, what a surprise, I can't stop laughing about that Akuma Yoshi pic.
Also for fans of Awkward Zombie
I'm definitely expecting a Ryu/Lucas/Roy bundle a la Mario Kart 8.Day 1 may be tomorrow.
This is it for FE. Roy was a highly requested and popular vet.
I know people will hate it but I would love for them to add a fourth type of Mii Fighter. Like a Magic Staff user.
With how many DLC costumes and the fact we can only use Mii's with friends I feel being able to play 4-player matches with 4 absolutely distinct types would be great.
Most of those complaining about Ryu probably didn't grow up with SFII. This is huge for me because it was one of my most played fighters growing up.
Ryu is basically a Heropon to me.
Yeah, like I said, I'm leaning toward them releasing all three tomorrow.If they were doing one character a month, they wouldn't add them to this patch. Even if Roy was releasing with the concert, he wouldn't have been added.
So since the data is in the patch...yall know what this means right? Its ready to go. We are likely getting all three characters available tomorrow! :O
Which means we are going to get another character revealed since they can't have no upcoming character! :O :O
Fuuuuck yesssssss gonna max this shit so hardThread is moving fast, but holy shit they put in the CPS2 original of Ken's theme

*Buckets of tears*
IM SO HAPPY AT ALL THIS NEWS
Hoping Ryu's clapping animation has his face all beaten up.
Why? I don't like Roy.Can you at least ATTEMPT to hide your saltiness next time?
Theres nothing to tease. All of their finished moves are in the patch along with finished classic movies. Theres no reason to think both characters and stages won't be available tomorrow. Unless they hold them back by a couple weeks or so to spread it out but I'd doubt it.DONT TEASE ME LIKE THIS
