In my area we do a trivia night. Sometimes we have nerdy catagories and I'm in charge of putting together a Street Fighter catagory. I wanted to get corrections from you guys as well as suggestions. Keep in mind these questions are not intended for SRK users, but rather 20-30 year olds who like trivia. As a result, these questions are going to look really easy and stupid to most of us, but remember not everyone at these trivia night's is a nerd... and some of them are even... women.

Heres what I have so far and I would like some from you guys.


1)In Street Fighter the Movie (the movie) what Australian pop star played Cammy?
(Kylie Minogue)

2)In Street Fighter the Movie (the movie) M.Bison was played by what Golden Globe winning actor. Soon after the movie bombed, he died.
(Raúl Juliá)

3)In the first street fighter game, players could only play as one of two available characters. Who were those two characters?
(player one was Ryu and player 2 was Ken)

4)In America we know the evil dictator and final boss of street fighter 2 as M.Bison. In Japan his name is different. What’s his original name?
(Vega)

5)Of the four original boss characters, only one of them didn’t have their name changed when the game came to the US. Which boss w kept his name?
(Sagat)

6)On the old Street fighter arcade machine there were 6 buttons and a joy stick. Of the 6 buttons, 3 were for punches and 3 were for kicks. Each button had a title next to it to describe the action. Name 3 of those 6 titles.
Light punch “jab”, medium punch “strong”, strong punch “fierce”
Light kick “short” Medium kick “forward” strong kick “roundhouse”

7) One point for the “E” in E.Honda and one point for the "M" in M.Bison.
(“Edmond” "Master")

8)In Super Street Fighter 2: The New Challengers, four new characters were added. Capcom wanted the game to be popular in America so they let Capcom of America design one of the four new characters in order to make sure the American players had something they liked. Out of the four “Cammy, Fei Long, Dee Jay, and T.Hawk.” Which was designed specifically to target American intrest?
(Strangely, it’s not the Native American T.Hawk, but Deejay the Jamaican.)

9)In the first edition of Street Fighter 2 there was a bug that later became known as “hand cuffs” which froze the game and required the machine to be reset before it could be played again. Only one character was able to do this legendary attack. Who was it?
(Guile)

I wanted to have one about gief being gay, but I don't think capcom is 100% behind that one.

One about Sheng Long or winning quotes would be good too. I can think of a lot of questions, but they need to stay somewhat easy and interesting to nonfighting game nerds.

Master Bison? I'm not sure that that is what the M is for.

? I thought the "M" in M. Bison stood for Mike, as in Mike Bison for boxer. But to avoid lawsuit they swapped the name with another character. Or something like that.

Here's one: One what day of the week did Chun-Li's dad die?

Well yeah it did stand for Mike when M.Bison was the boxer, but in the States (and all places where M.Bison is the dictator) the "M" is offically for "Master".

Yeah, I know they are on the hard side already, but the "E" in E.Honda was actually already asked at this same trivia night about 9 months ago and about 25% of the people got it.

What streetfigther 3 character has been long rumored to appear on a boat in SF2 Ken's stage?

(Q)

What part of her attire has chun-li stated she would never give away?

(Her bracelets)

Was akuma able to perform the shun goku satsu in his first in-game streetfighter appearance?

(No)

Name two capcom games that had akuma as a secret character that were NOT streetfighter games.

(Cyber bots, X-Men: Cota)


Because of the loosely translated game text, Ryu's statement of "You must defeat Shen Long to stand a chance" was taken as a hint of a secret character. What gaming magazine made mock screenshots for april fools, leading the general gaming public to believe the rumors were true?

(EGM)

What is the name of Ryu's Master?

(Gouken)

What is the name of Ryu's Master's Master?

(Goutetsu)

What streetfighter 1 character later made a come back appearance in capcom vs. snk 2?

(Eagle)

Name 2 male gay streetfighter characters. (Vega doesn't count!)

(Zangief, Eagle)

HAHAHA Fuck man... I almost put this question in but it would be WAY to hard.

"...but for Bison it was...?" *Room goes to sleep, girls leave*

And good questions Jin, but way to hard. If I don't know some of them, no one at this thing will.

EAGLE IS GAY!?

They are not hard. I bet most of srk knows that shit, or at least they should.

I think people would remember ryu's master's name over what random actress played cammy in sf2 the movie. Especially considering no one has ever been able to make it all the way through to the credits without spontaneously combusting.

BTW, Eagle's cvs2 design is based on Freddy Mercury from queen. He was also gay, hence Eagle's sexuality. Not to mention most of his lines/moves are based on queen songs e.g. "No time for losers." (see: We are the champions)

Some of it is a little hard, but most should be child's play. I mean it IS trivia after all, there's plenty of games that ask people shit about history that NO ONE outside of the largest nerds in the universe know, and yet they still manage to have fun by learning something new.

Wow, you guys are asking way too hard questions for a bunch of average people. Fuck, I can't answer half of these. Nobody knows who the fuck Raul Julia is except for SRK, much less match him up to an obscure role in an obscure movie. You need questions like "What is Ryu's fireball called", "What is Guile's fireball called", "Name two characters from SF2 that have names starting with C", etc.

Which Final Fight 1 character was not in any SF game?
(Haggar)

How did Akuma kill Gouken?
(Instant Hell Murder/SGS/Raging Demon)

Who gave Ryu his headband?
(Ken)

What is Dhalsim's favorite food?
(Curry)

Why does Zangief have scars all over his body?

From whom did Zangief steal the move "Spinning Lariat"?

After being scarred by Ryu, what move did Sagat invent?
(Tiger Blow, then Tiger Uppercut)

If these are just random 20 to 30 year olds, and not necessarily fighting game nerds, then probably all of those questions are gonna be way too hard.

Most of the time, if I'm in a group of people, and an old video game topic gets brought up that people start reminiscing about .. if they were just pretty much average kids that played games but aren't necessarily into them now or are still just casual, they're just gonna have a pretty base level of memory on it. Like they'll prolly remember who Ryu is, or that a fat sumo guy had a headbutt that went across the stage, or the guy with huge hair who flip kicked people in the face .. but anything deeper than that might be too much. Unless, these are really hardcore trivia buffs, than maybe they'll do better, I dunno.

Are you sure? IIRC it says Cammy in Tiamat's storyline FAQ.



And Akuma DID have SGS/Raging Demon in the SSF2T; It was only in the home version, and you had to check the dipswitches.


Who is the strongest woman in the world?
(Chunli)

Nothing of the sort


It would appear that her father's body was never found nor buried, even though her father got a grave. Chun-Li didn't even know for sure that he was dead until Bison told her he killed her father at the end of SFA2. At the end of SFA3, she remarks that she feels her father's still alive, apparently trying to cling to the old adage of "If you don't see him actually die, he's still out there some where". I'd be extremely surprised if he were alive, though. Ditto for Charlie for whom Guile says the same thing.

Ok for all the people saying the Raul Julia and Kylie Minogue questions are too hard. Raul Julia was in a lot of other movies guys. He wasn't just M.Bison. In fact people were amazed that such an awesome actor was willing to do such a shit movie. And Same with Kylie Minogue. Shes like the Madonna of Australia. If I ask you to name an Australian pop artist, Kylie Minogue and maybe ABBA should be the first things that come to mind.

Haggar shows up in Guy's background in Alpha 2. Belgar is an acceptable answer, I think. You could also use the male sprite swap for Poison and Roxy.
