What about Ryu and Ken? At least the palate swaps in mk gave the characters different move sets.
Yeah! and those "move sets" where the only things to set every single character apart from each other in MK1 as all fighters shared every normal across the board (the same can't be said for World Warrior) :lol: anywho, yes, the 2 shotos were exactly the same (aesthetics need not apply) in SF2 World Warrior, But the ninjas truly only had one special among each that set them apart (The teleport punch and the slide)! The Spear and the Ice blast where pretty much the same thing (they were projectiles that set up an opponent for a free hit) just with a different visual style.

Originally, the concept of Ryu in SF2 was from SF1. The other characters were created from him (the baseline). Ken was thrown in as Player 2 because it looked normal for both players to want to choose the most balanced character to beat the game with and you couldn't choose the same character yet.

Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.
