The first iteration of SFV will have 16 characters. I doubt E.Ryu will be one of them.

Did Capcom announce there was 16 characters? I must have missed that.

Can we expect the original 8 world warriors to appear?

after Oro Gen is the only character that would be a guaranteed buy from me, would love to see this happen. and unlike Oro I don't think he'd be a tough sell at all, he's been with the series for a long time

Some news MOTU line plz??

[foots]

Gen looks like he'd make a cool statue.

Bummer news about MK LSBs. I don't buy them just because I'm not a huge fan of the property, but they are very impressive. I was looking forward to seeing more.

Unbelievable! He didn't answer my question directly, but this will do!

Normally I'd also take this to mean that there's a decent shot that Gen is in SFV, but I really don't think he will be. He really is supposed to be dead or dying this time(don't tease me, Yac!). Maybe Oro can teach him his secrets of immortality though! There is still hope. Ok Yac, fine. I give up. They'll just retcon it...

Yep kinda sucks.. 1 monster bust like Goro would have been amazing.. or the ppl's vote from the original poll which was Shao Kahn.. if it is based on Scorpion sales I can say that as big a MK fan I am, and as far as LSBs are concerned, I wasnt willing to shell out on a busy MK9 design that would change so drastically between games.. The sub zero is one of my favourites though, and at least it is reminiscent of classic

well with Charlie being confirmed as well I suppose we can just throw the whole idea of canon out the window. Gen, Chuck and Gouken never died it seems so all bets are off

Good question. Be nice to hear if there still planned or not.

At least Ken and Zangief are confirmed to be on the list of revists! Although nothing has started yet....
