Shoryuken!

edit: I had to look up how to spell that.



Even though I am very well acquainted with Japanese the anglicised "rye-yoo" "hadooken" and "shore-yoo-ken" are deeply ingrained in me from all those childhood times spend playing sf2.

My favourite was trying to translate whatever they say on that sound engine into "tatsumaki senpuu kyaku". To this day I still can't hear it


Oh my God, the hurricane kick. I can hear it too...


CPU Ken was an absolute terror, especially when if you beat him once and were in Round 2. Then it was just nonstop dragon punches, hurricane kicks, and hadukens


Tiger robocop (tiger uppercut from Sagat) and Buga Vai (yoga fire from Dhalsim) were how we commonly listen these moves here in Brasil.
