Dat spinning duckling kick is overpowered.
I can get behind this.
Ono is one of the coolest guys ever

He's a cool dude. I was playing slots with him at this past EVO.
Oh yeah? That is pretty cool. I peed with Yoshitaka Amano last NY comic con.
Does anyone else really enjoy this kind of speculation? I do!
In case all of you missed three of my guesses from a few pages ago and still cares to comment:
- Ibuki's pet tanuki Don. (Could be a fun/irritating joke character because of his size).
- A ninja from Ibuki's clan (as seen in her New Generation stage).
- Harmageddon Yoko - Rainbow Mika's coach who according to the Street Fighter Wikia is "A heavyset woman carrying a shinai (bamboo training sword) who used to be a famous wrestler herself." Maybe Ono has accepted that R. Mika will never be included and has shifted his attention to getting her coach in?
All would fit the criteria of (A) not having been in a fighting game game before, (B) being related to Street Fighter, (C) and not being on anyone's radar (i.e. being obscure). Too obscure / weird, or not enough, that is the question.

Sure. That is why we are here discussing it. I really don't think they will add Ibuki's animal as a playable character.

They already stated that it's a character that makes sense for SF, so I highly doubt we' see any pets.
Mika's teacher would be cool though.

Hmm..? Dudley cosplay at SDCC ?
That can only mean one thing !
The 5th character has to be Ortho K. Gotch, Dudleys butler !

no one missed the comment. It's just that no one cared. damn. The pet idea is incredibly stupid as well.
Most likely it will be
- Go (dans dad)
- Gotetsu (somehow he comes back from the dead)
- Another Final Fight character (not Haggar, deconfirmed) maybe Carlos, Lucia, Dean + many others
I would personally also like to see Gene from Godhand.

Gene...actually wouldn't make sense in Street Fighter.

F. Champ and Yipes have both mentioned that USF4 will allow you to select both Ultras. Seeing as how these guys are friends with Combofiend, it's not out of the question that Combo spilled the beans to them and they can't keep a secret of course. Between the two, Champ mentioned that should you choose the option of having both ultras each Ultra will be nerfed to compensate for having both. I assume this is just a damage nerf and not anything else like start up or invincibility.
This of course makes a lot of characters extremely annoying. If Cammy wasn't bad enough she has her Ultra 1 which is easy to combo into and shuts down fireballs. Now she could have Ultra 2 which also shuts down jumping attacks if you knock her down. Other characters like Gief, Hawk, Sagat, and Yun all have 2 very good Ultras. If damage is nerfed enough(like 50% of what it is now), then I guess it may not be that bad. But still, it will be awfully annoying to deal with.
None of this is confirmed though, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's true.

Dawgtanian(Capcom UK Community Manager) already said this character is from the Street Fighter universe. So this rules out wonkey characters like Gene or Remember Me chick.
Maybe it's Captain Commando, didn't someone say that Captain Command takes place in the very far future of the SF/Final Fight universe?

That doesn't rule them out at all. But I wouldn't be surprised if it was Nilin who turned out to be the 5th character.
Captain Commando hasy been in a fighting game so he's out. You are right, he's from the future of that universe. He uses an advanced set of C. Vipers equipment. IIRC.

Damn it, how could I have forgotten about the MvC games. OK, does Captain's assist specials in MVC count? Because I would like one of those 3 in the game. Preferrably Sho(the Ninja) because I really liked neutral jump explosive cloud kick thingy.
If that's true they're gonna need until 2014 for playtesting.

I looked up on wiki, he takes place in the future of metro city. So yeah he would fit to be a street fighter character. David "Dawgtanian" Hinds confirmed that the 5th dlc is street fighter related, and we already know that the 5th dlc hasn't been playable in any fighters. So that rules out Captain Commando.

Prior to Super coming out, during those leaks, I thought that we were gonna have both Ultras available to use. I'm not so sure if that's a good idea, as part of the strategy and matchup game is about making meaningful choices - like which ultra to use.
I'd probably want to playtest it. I can theorize about it all day long in my head, but for something like that, I'd have to see how it works in actual gameplay. Maybe it's actually really really cool /shrug
Personally, I think that perhaps creating a third ultra might be an option for new gameplay, and balance, in particular.
Tweak the characters so that their matchups are as even as possible.
Nevertheless, some characters will still have one or two unfavorable matchups.
Create an ultra 3 for those specific matchups so that it becomes more even.

Goutetsu could possibly be the 5th dlc. I'm not sure but its possible.

I really don't care for Goutetsu. Gouken was cool but even he was kind of a meh addition. Not all the shoto's play the same but i rather have a character that has nothing to do with those guys.

I hope I'm wrong because I do want a different character and not another shoto.

Did they release the SDCC panel trailer? If not, did anyone get it off-screen?

Unless his small appearances in the MVC series counts where he was nothing more than a special move and a part of Captain's hyper combo, I'm going to go with Sho(or Ginzu as he's known in America) from the Captain Commando series
He also trains in Bunshin Ryu like Guy. Just use Guy as a base, throw a ninja costume on him, with the cloudy kick and bam, new character

With a damage nerf on their Ultras? Probably not. Personally, I'd rather stick with the threat of huge damage on one of my Ultras. Besides, I've also got my Super grab to use.

What if you had access to both Ultras but had to pick a primary one? For example, if a Guile were to choose Sonic Hurricane, that Ultra would become accessible with half the Revenge bar filled and Flash Explosion would only be available with a full bar.
It would basically be a SF take on P4A's Awakening supers.

That would be really interesting, but I could imagine for some characters they could just try to focus attack a bunch to build the Ultra bar and it'd be worth the risk considering a few combinations would be ridiculous.
Or the return of ST Akuma D:

Fifth character will totally be from this game
Future Ken? Lol.
Good point. Wonder how the Alpha team pulled off the balancing with multiple supers, maybe they'll look at that for inspiration?

Any new shoto is going to be the most annoying character ever just because of how different they will have to make him/her
