Sheng Long Street Fighter 4!

[Symmetric-XBA]

wow, what a way for capcom to tie the old in w/ the new!! if ever you thought "dam, i wonder who trained ryu and ken, and why can't I play as him?" then wonder no more b/c capcom has announced that the master of ryu and ken, the infamous Sheng Long is back!!! Sheng Long will make his much anticipated return to the SF series in SF4!!!! No word yet as to if he will be a regular character, or a special unlocked one, but think of Sheng Long as the polar opposite of Akuma!

Want to see how capcom introduced Sheng Long?? Check this link out!

the master of Ken and Ryu's name is Gouken, not Sheng Long. Not only that but he is Akuma's (Gouki) brother.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gouken

Sheng Long is a mistranslation of shoryuken in the US games.

he's not a brother to akuma, and yes he is the master of ryu and ken. wikipedia is your source? not very reliable.

[y2kash_14]

Wikipedia is not my source. I just used it to show you. Street Fighter is my source :P But since you don't believe me, I assume you haven't played the Alpha series or seen any of the animated show. It's not up for debate, it is fact that they are brothers.

debate? then why did capcom come out on the japanese arcade game and say that sheng long was ryu's master?? lol so now you're calling capcom a liar?

Debate Gogogogogoggooggo!!!!!!

Capcom saying Sheng Long was Ryu's master was a homage to the april fools joke run by EGM in 1992 and 1997. Sheng Long is a joke amongst the street fighter fan base. You just fell for capcoms latest april fool joke. Like I said, it's not for debate. Sheng Long doesn't exist.

Oh but you don't trust wiki.

Do you need any more non-wiki proof?

I never thought I would have to prove what was an obvious joke.
