Line 103:
** [[Comic Book Time]] seems to be in effect.
** Especially since after SSFII, Capcom stopped giving exact birthdates for the characters, only the month and day. To wit: Ryu was born July 21, 1964. Alex was born August 3. Which year? I don't know!.
*** Actually, Street Fighter 1 went by release date (1987). Street Fighter Alpha 2 (which removed Alpha 1 from canon) takes place late 1987 - early 1989, so Final Fight (which exists in the SF universe) took place in 1987 like Street Fighter 1. Final Fight 2 took place in the middle of 1988, to explain Guy's absence in Final Fight 2. With that, the Slam Masters/Muscle Bomber subseries took place 1981-1982 going by Haggar running for mayor of Metro City in the Japanese version, which is the canon version, not the American version FYI. Final Fight Streetwise even confirms Final Fight 1 in 1987 with Haggar's election poster in Haggar's gym saying "Vote Haggar for 1982" or something like that. Street Fighter Alpha/Zero 3 took place 1989 - early 1990. Proof comes with Cammy being 16 when Delta Red found her (circa 1990), and that she's 19 in [[SF 2]], which occurs in 1993. As for Final Fight 3/Rough, it took place 1991, because Japanese sources state Haggar left office in 1992, so 1991 for 3. [[SF 4]] took place in 1994, while Super [[SF 4]] took place after [[SF 4]],
* How does Guile's Sonic Boom technique, a destructive energy attack, ''defuse a bomb''?
* How do you pronounce "Ryu"? A lot of fans say it's "Ryu", as do most Japanese versions say. Most English dubs say it like its pronounced though, "R-you" or "Re-you". Why can't they get the characters' names right?
