My previous theory got quite a few readers. I pointed out how everyone in the series was pretty much in it for those sweet, sweet fame dollars, even the ones who seemed to have no need for money. I even showed that Akuma was not technologically illiterate, having a smartphone of his own to take … Continue reading The Lost Ideals of Zangief
It’s All About the Money
First things first. watch this episode of Street Fighter Red Tape from the long-since-cancelled TBS show "The Pete Holmes Show". It will give you a better understanding of what this theory will be about. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYDza1iznhI From a logistical standpoint, holding a tournament with this amount of flamboyance would break even the mega-rich Bison. I did … Continue reading It’s All About the Money
Rose, the First Doll?
An idea for a theory doesn't always come up right away. Sometimes, it takes lots of digging before an idea can even formulate. This was the case with Rose. Rose has enough mystery behind her where any number of theories could be attempted. The issue is that unlike G or Necalli, Rose isn't as mysterious … Continue reading Rose, the First Doll?
Is Vega a Vampire?
Chun-Li: "Vega!? Shouldn't you be dead?" Vega: "Perhaps I'm a ghost." - Rival Dialogue between Vega and Chun-Li, Street Fighter IV Despite what he says here, the truth is Vega isn't a ghost… but he could be something much worse. Vega is the narcissistic, mask-wearing, claw-wielding Spanish ninja who, along with M. Bison, F.A.N.G., and … Continue reading Is Vega a Vampire?
The Makoto and Cammy Double Whammy
One of the things I find interesting about Street Fighter's lore is that a lot of times, there are enough elements in one character's story to bring light to another's. For the most part, the characters are related to each in some way: G and Q, Chun-Li and Juri, Alex and Tom, Zeku and Guy. … Continue reading The Makoto and Cammy Double Whammy
Is G a Member of the Secret Society?
I have been holding off on this theory for several reasons. First, I fully believe that everything I've written about G is, for the most part, true. I believe he controls people with a handshake. I believe Q is his puppet. I believe that G is in reality a demon from Hell (although, admittedly, the … Continue reading Is G a Member of the Secret Society?
G, The April Fool?
Capcom is known not just for their fighting games and Resident Evil. They're also known for their shooters. 1942, Cannon Spike, Forgotten Worlds, Vulgus, and Commando are some of the gems that Capcom has produced in their over three decade existence. However, this new April Fool game may be one of the most significant shooters … Continue reading G, The April Fool?
Zeku’s Purpose
Zeku is the 38th grandmaster of Bushinryu whose disciple, Guy, dethroned him for the title, leading Guy to become the 39th. Zeku's inclusion in Street Fighter 5 was received with a warm welcome, although he has proven to be a relatively tricky character to play as; he has two fighting styles, brought about by his … Continue reading Zeku’s Purpose
The REAL Secret to Oro’s Immortality
Previously, I mentioned the scientific processes that Oro would need to keep himself biologically immortal. In a very complex nutshell, he would need to enter cryptobiosis, a physiological state that allows one to slow their metabolic processes to an almost complete standstill. To accomplish this, he would need to somehow produce enough of a sugar … Continue reading The REAL Secret to Oro’s Immortality
Street Fighter X NBA
Since I was younger, I've always fantasized the characters of Street Fighter being fans of American sports. Americans certainly have the most watched organizations that aren't soccer in the world. The NFL is slowly gaining a foothold in the United Kingdom. MLB is huge in Asia. The NHL is Canada's national pastime, as well as … Continue reading Street Fighter X NBA
