20 Little Easter Eggs in Kuaishou: Kyle and Ken are actually relatives, and the necklace Talsi wears is a child’s skull.

The "StreetFighter" series, which is almost synonymous with 2D fighting games, has been 30 years since the first generation of the game was released. For many players, it is Just like a good friend who grew up since childhood, in fact, there are many interesting little secrets and tidbits behind this game up to now. I will introduce it to you below.

1. The reason why the names of the four kings were replaced in the American version

Everyone should know the four kings who appeared in Kombat 2: Boxing King Bison and Iron Claw Beauty Male Baroque, King of Muay Thai Shakat, and the ultimate devil Beka. Everyone should be familiar with the appearance and names of the four of them, but old players must have noticed why the names of the four kings in the American version of Kombat Tornado 2 were changed? Is it a programming problem?

In fact, the key is that the character of boxing champion Bison is an allusion to Mike Tyson, the popular heavyweight boxing champion in the United States at that time. Not only did Bison look very similar to Tyson, but even his name was similar. It's called "M.Bison", which is very similar to M.Tyson. In order to worry that the game will be hindered by the issue of image rights when it is sold and promoted overseas, we simply made a big move and removed the three people except Shakat. Names have become popular again, so the boxing champion is called Barlog, Iron Claw Man is called Vega, and finally the name of Demon King Becca is changed to M.Bison.

▲In the non-Japanese version of Kombat Tornado, the name of the boxing champion Bison will be changed to Barlog, but Barlog should actually be the name of the handsome man with the iron claw. This is to avoid a conflict with the well-known heavyweight boxing champion Tyson.

2. What does "Sheng Long" mean by Long in the clearance scene?

In "YoumusfeatShengLongtoStandachance", each character will have his own line after defeating his opponent. Among them, the protagonist Long's lines in the American version are as follows: "YoumusfeatShengLongtostandachance", The literal translation is: "You have to defeat ShengLong to have a chance to win." But I'm curious, who is this ShengLong? It doesn't appear at all in the game?

As a result, many players are rumoring that this ShengLong is actually a hidden figure in the game. Some say that he is Long's master, while others say that he is Long's old enemy. But in fact, it is nothing. The original meaning of the text is this: "Shoryuken breaks the limit, and wins the game!!" It probably means that if you can't break through the Shoryuken, you have no chance of winning. ! It turns out that the original pronunciation of Shoryuken in Japanese should be "ShoRyuKen". It turns out that the original translator probably failed to understand the meaning and translated it into a word with a Chinese pronunciation like ShengLong. Hence the misunderstanding.

▲This line caused heated discussions among many players at the time~ Unexpectedly, it was just a linguistic misunderstanding.

3. Canceling the punch was originally a bug

In 2D fighting games, the most commonly used technique is "canceling the punch", which is to use a special move to cancel a punch or kick move. The final stiff time is used to achieve this element of combos, but it was actually one of the programming bugs of the Cap development team at the beginning. Unexpectedly, it has unexpectedly become one of the indispensable elements of today's 2D combat. It seems that sometimes the bug is not there. It has to be corrected (laughs).

▲The technique of canceling hard punches and kicks is a commonly used special move in 2D games. In fact, it turned out to be a program bug.

4. In fact, there would not be Ryu and Ken in "Fighting Tornado 3"

"Fighting Tornado 3" is a relatively special 2D fighting game. It happened to be the time when it was launched. When 3D fighting games were dominant, such as "VR Kombat", "Tekken", etc., 2D fighting games were somewhat in decline at the time. The system of this work is also very different from the past, especially the introduction of the "Blocking" system of gameplay, which enriches the psychological aspect of the battle.

As the protagonists of the entire series, Takashi and Ken were supposed to appear in the game. However, Cap originally did not intend to put Takashi and Ken into the game in order to give players a refreshing feeling. Instead, Alex, a topless muscular man, was used as the new protagonist. However, in the end, the two ten thousand year protagonists were brought back because Alex's protagonist image was really weak.

5. Street Fighting and Fighting Tornado have the same worldview

The well-known side-scrolling fighting game "Final Fight" (Final Fight) was originally based on Fighting Tornado The sequel was planned and developed, and it was codenamed "Quick Fighter '89" at the time. Although it was finally launched in 1989, the name of the game was changed to "Street Fighter", which is FinalFight. Two years later, "Storm Fighter 2" was launched. By the way, a large part of the producer team of "Storm Fighter 2" and "Street Fighter" are the same, including the famous Yoshiki Okamoto, Ryo Nishitani, and Yasuda Lang et al.

The two games are also very cooperative. Many Street Fighting characters also appear in Kombat Tornado, such as Kai, Poison, Loliente, Cody, and Hugo, etc. They were all picked up from the streets.

▲The famous large-scale console video game "Street Fighter" was originally planned to be developed as a sequel to "Street Fighter", but unexpectedly it became a unique series.

6. The two people fighting in the opening scene of Tornado 2 actually have character information!

▲Do you still remember that every time you played "Tornado 2" before, you would see a scene where two people, one white and one black, were fighting in front of a tall building? In fact, the two of them also have their own character profiles! Don’t think that they are just ordinary passers-by! The white man’s name is Scott and the black man’s name is Max. The following is their profile:

Scott

Height: 191 centimeters, weight: 95 kilograms. Blood type: B. Born on September 10. Born in the United States. Favorite Things: Street fighting Most annoying things: Caterpillars

Max

Height 187 cm Weight 93 kg Blood type A Born on April 1st Born in the United States Favorite things: Himself, gambling, glitter The most annoying thing about shiny things: simplicity

7. The connection between Muay Thai King Shakat and the Muay Thai players who appeared in the comic "The Empty-Armed Idiot Generation"

A popular phenomenon in Japan in the 1970s The karate comic "Karate Idiot Generation" set off a karate whirlwind in Japan at that time. In it, there was a Muay Thai master nicknamed "Emperor of Darkness" named Lei Bang. His image was just like the sand in the karate whirlwind. Carter is almost the same. He is quite tall, bald, one-eyed, Muay Thai King, etc. They are all almost identical. Perhaps the image of Shakat came from this!

▲The image of the Dark Emperor Leibang is really similar to Shakat in the lower right corner!

8. Shakat’s eyes were taken away by Fire Bomb’s father

Fire Bomb (Dan), who debuted in the Tornado ZERO series, is recognized by everyone A weak character, he is a Japanese born in Hong Kong. In order to avenge Shakat for killing his father, he always challenges him. His father Huo Yinqiang lost in the battle with Shakat, but he still fought hard. One of Shakat's eyes was blinded, and because of this, Shakat became a one-eyed dragon.

▲The dispute between Shakat and Fire Bomb comes from the fact that Fire Bomb’s father once fought with Shakat and died at his hands.

9. The secret to the power of Honda’s super headbutt comes from fried chicken bones?

The character Honda gives people the image of a very typical Japanese sumo wrestler. He has many very Japanese elements, such as his love of bathing, his face that looks like a kabuki mask, etc. His representative special move "Super Headbutt" is a rush-type move that is fast and has a long distance. The opponent will fall to the ground if hit.

But in fact, the reason why this move is so powerful is that Honda hid a fried chicken bone in his bun, and then used it to hit his opponent. However, in fact, the human skull should be harder...

▲Being hit by Honda’s super headbutt is very painful!

10. The reason why the "ほねつぎ" in Honda's stage background became "はわつざ" in the HDRemix version

I believe everyone is familiar with Honda in Tornado 2 The stage is very impressive! A large bathhouse with lanterns and a large screen depicting Mount Fuji in the background, a mirror at the back of the stage, and signs with various text slogans, one of which said "ほねつぎ", which means "take it with you" bone". However, in the later remastered version of "Fighter Tornado 2 HD Remix", the remastered version of this stage actually changed "ほねつぎ" into "はわつざ", a word with no meaning at all. Why is this? ? It turns out to be because of cultural differences! The digital artist for this HD Remix is ??from the Canadian studio UDONE Entertainment. Because he couldn't read Japanese, he drew the words wrong. What a huge misunderstanding!

▲Pay attention to the red frame. It was supposed to be ほねつぎ but turned into はわつざ. This is all caused by cultural differences.

11. Who is the voice actress of Chun Li in Fighting Tornado 2?

As soon as Kombat 2 came out, many players were very interested in Chunli’s voice. After all, it was the first time that a fighting game had a female character, and Chunli’s screams also made them laugh. It's very impressive, whether it's "Yeah, yeah~" when using the Hundred Split Kick, or "はははっ, やったー!" (hahaha, great!) after winning the battle, I still remember it to this day. It is quite a classic dubbing, so many people will want to know, who was responsible for the dubbing of Chun Li in the first place? In fact, this female voice comes from a certain bitmap artist in the game, and she is responsible for Honda. So... maybe you can find out if you break the game again and look carefully at the staff list. .

▲Chunli’s voice has always been impressive.

12.Who is Walker Gorbarsky?

The well-known Zangiev is a wrestler from Russia. However, when developing this character, he actually had many different names, one of which was called "Walker?" "Gorbarsky", this is a name that is easy to think of from the perspective of Russia, but in the end it was changed to Zangiev.

▲My name is Zangirv! What Walker? I don’t know Gorbarsky!

13. Zangirv is actually quite knowledgeable?

If you think that Zangirv, who is full of flesh and blood, is a dumb guy who can only use brute force, then you are totally wrong. Not only is he a patriot, but he is also a top student who graduated from the same university as the Russian President! Not only does he quote lines from Tolstoy's literary works as his personal lines, but in the game "X-Men vs. Street Fighter" (X-Men vs. Street Fighter), after defeating the opponent, he will also recommend to the opponent what he is watching. The book is really a black gangster pretending to be soy sauce.

▲I really can’t tell that Zangirv is such a book-loving person!

14. Kyle and Ken are actually relatives

This setting is rarely mentioned by people, but it is actually true. Kyle’s wife is called Yulia, and she and Kyle has a daughter. Ken’s girlfriend is called Eliza. She married Ken at the end of 2:00, but Eliza is actually Yulia’s sister (mentioned in Wikipedia), so Kay Er and Ken are related.

Maybe after knowing that her girlfriend’s sister’s husband is a top soldier, she might not want to marry him (laughing)

▲Brother Kyle, I’m sorry! I was wrong! Don't hit me with a German back drop!

15. Long’s headband

Everyone should be familiar with Long’s image. He is wearing a white gi with a red headband. However, in fact, Long’s headband was originally It was white, so why did it turn into red later? Of course this is related to his good brother Ken! In the ending of Fast Fighting Tornado ZERO, Long was worried that he would be affected by the fluctuation of murderous intent, become disowned by his relatives and fall into the devil's path. At this time, he was willing to tear off a red belt from himself and give it to Long, telling him, then you will Look at this red tape and it will remind you of what you need to do. Since then, Long has always worn this red headband, which also represents the very firm friendship between the two.

▲Long’s red headband actually comes from Ken’s ribbon. The reason why Long wears it is to protect his beliefs from the fluctuations of killing intent.

16. The origin of Long’s name

Long and Ken are the well-known protagonists of the Kombat Tornado series, but their names in the first generation of Kombat Tornado were not the same at the beginning. In this way, Ken's name is actually Masters, but no one knows Long's name. According to Cap's information, not only did Long have no name at the time, but he had never made it public. By the way, in the live-action version of Kombat Tornado, Long in it is called "Long? Jose".

▲Having said that, it seems that the first generation of Kuaishou Tornado has never mentioned the name of this young man who can use Qigong...

17. Tarxi's neck Skull decoration on his neck

Do you know where the skull decoration hanging around his neck came from, the Indian warrior Tharsi who used yoga as his main fighting technique? It turns out that those skeletons come from children who died of poverty, but why do they have to hang such things on their bodies...

18. Deejay in Super Fast Tornado 2 was designed by a foreigner

Basically, almost all the characters that appear in Kombat Tornado are designed by Japanese developers. However, DeeJay, who debuted in "Super Kombat Tornado 2", is Designed by American designer James Goddard, he created this Jamaican super boxer who is also a musician. He will dance happily after winning, and the overall feeling is quite energetic.

▲ DeeJay, a musician and boxer from Jamaica.

19. The "wonderful art anatomy" left by great developers

Have you ever thought about how Cap combined these characters when he was developing Kombat Tornado? Why are their muscle lines so vividly expressed? On Cap's official website, there is a column called "Shadoru Fighter Research Institute", which contains a "wonderful art anatomy" (link: Cap), which records the presentation methods of various muscle angles and parts, allowing everyone to Understand how they use bitmaps to express the thickness and movement of muscle lines.

▲This is a wonderful artistic illustration of human anatomy.

20. A certain whack-a-mole game machine with the theme of fighting the whirlwind called Quan Sheng Tu Long

If you see this machine, you should be able to know how to play the game. , but what emerged from the machine was not the gopher, but the Demon King General Beka. While knocking Beka to throw, the scene shown in the middle of the screen was a battle between Long and Chunli. This gopher machine can also be played by two people at the same time.

▲A very special whack-a-mole machine.
