El Fuerte Pics

[chunbelievable]

El Fuerte pics are up on the SF4 japanese website.

http://www.capcom.co.jp/sf4

What is with the frying pan? I know he's a cook and all but he has to bring it to a fight? :/

Oh well, there's a nice pic of him in I think Blanka's stage too.

[*Onslaught*]

He's not as cool as his artwork made him out to be. Looks like a fun character.

[chunbelievable]

The bugs bunny looking run looks comedic. Not a judgement, just an observation.

[Luigi-Bo 87]

He looks so goofy in some of those pics

[chunbelievable]

OK I think we are pretty much confirmed that the ink effects and dark contrast happen during a focus attacks, what's up with his?

That punch where he is sending Gief looks cool. I want to see what happens after he stands on an opponents shoulders.

[Son Them All]

He's took clownish, reminds me of a joke character. Probably would look dope drawn as a sprite tho ironically enough.

[Kataklysmic]

What is with the frying pan? I know he's a cook and all but he has to bring it to a fight? :/

He's a publicity hound.

-------

Oh geez, he's even got stars on his butt.

[_MJ_#R]

retarded vega

[Kunai]

I think the Japanese SFIV blog said that they will reveal the next loketest on 4/8... can anyone confirm?

And yeah, El Fuerte looks pretty awesome, but he looks like a Dan-like character. I think I'll try him out extensively, but he'll probably be hard to master.

[Aquashark]

it's about time the joke character won't be a shoto-clone of sorts (Dan, Sean) :D

[The Mullah]

looks alright. i'd prefer it if the pan was used in the fight and not just the opening intro which i guess is the case. I'd love to see his focus attack be a frying pan to the face!

[Sasmasta]

Looks okay to me.

EL GALLO LOCO! :rock:

[Ouroborus]

they should just put skullomania in

[wolf_1]

he fries tortillas and throws them at you

[Pablo_the_Mex]

Not too bad, just as long as he plays well.

[CPS_3]

The frying pan looks like an intro pose aside from that his moves look cool, the Zangief shoulder stand is awesome :D

[crazydiamond]

Looks more fun character than a joke character to me. But in Street fighter a lot of characters have some fun comedic element. He looks quite diminutive which is cool too. I really hope they bring out the Mexican in him through his postures and movements. My only gripe is that sash he's wearing. What's with Capcom and these characters wearing sashes? I dunno if I've ever seen a Lucha Libre wearing a sash. Oh well.

At least they updated the site too!

[SmoothCat]

Anyone host the pics? I can't see the site cuz my phone browser doesn't have flash :(

[VManOfMana]

What's with Capcom and these characters wearing sashes? I dunno if I've ever seen a Lucha Libre wearing a sash. Oh well.

You'll most probably see it with luchadores with an martial art gimmick:

See also, Ultimo Dragon (he is Japanese, but his career largely developed in Mexico).

[The Switcher]

Looks awesome fun! VIVA MEXICO!!!!

[Yurinka]

I like the new pics. Happily he's not a typical grappler. See Mistico's videos: http://capcom-town.es/2008/03/20/los-asombrosos-origenes-de-el-fuerte/

[OhNoos]

I really hope they bring out the Mexican in him

For his ultimate he just pulls out a knife and casually stabs the dude.:rock:

[Helter Skelter]

it's about time the joke character won't be a shoto-clone of sorts (Dan, Sean) :D

Sean isn't a joke character.

I hope El Fuerte uses his frying pan in matches. Even if it's just for a Focus Attack.

[shatterstar]

For his ultimate he just pulls out a knife and casually stabs the dude.:rock:
MEXICAN JUDO, VATO!!!!

VIVA LA RAZA!!!

[Hatred Edge]

:rofl: @ Shatta av. Too good!


Fuerte looks kinda stupid by how he acts. However I wanna see some of his moves. Hopefully he smashes someones face(Gief) with the frying pan.

[Reno]

Kunai: Yes, the next loketest date will be announced on April 8th

[AlphaCrush]

He is no more ridiculous than Blanka or Dhalsim were when they were in SF2. I think he is cool.

[epsilon_]

WHAT THAT SMELL LIKE?

gdlk av.

[buyproduct]

Zangief's face when el fuerte is standing on his shoulders is a perfect mix of Wtf and Oh No! Its his premature ejaculation oh face.

[Jimmy Bones]

Thumbs up! :tup: :tup:

[ramberk]

I love it. Yeah its goofy but I love it. I"m gonna work hard at making this guy my first grapple character. Viva Mexico!

[Genetix1234]

Finally, some updates for SF4.

Love the pictures, definitely going to be a favorite of mine.

[FullMetalRoss]

Oh man I need a copy of that picture where he is standing on zangief's shoulders. Fucking Epic! I was sure I was going to play CV but now fuerte looks dope too!

[HARD BREAD]

Mr. Fuerte looks like a fun and interesting character...kinda reminds me of Ramon(kof)...i'll try him out, he looks speedy; cant wait to see vids :tup:

[-Beat-]

I think he has the frying pan because he is going to roll it up with his hands.

[CaliLifeStyle]

He looks cool. A dash? Maybe he'll play like Guy for SF Alpha.

[deadfrog]

^^ here you go...

http://twitchdesigns.com/sfiv/el_fuerte.jpg

Yeah, I love that picture too. It looks like they're a circus duo! :bgrin:

[GuMz]

El fuerte All Day

[MiyagiShin X]

Remind you of Tizok?

A grab from the air?, A Dash? Spanish?

[BurningVigor]

Awesome screens. He is the best of the 3 new characters in design. :tup:

[Projectjustice]

Wow he looks stupid.

[OhNoos]

Is that bridge stage new?

[Gorehound]

He's a publicity hound.

-------

Oh geez, he's even got stars on his butt.

He has Stars Stars in da Butt :bgrin:

[C/J/F]

I think this is solid confirmation that both Vega and M.Bison were killed in the SF2 storyline.

I believe Vega died attempting his patented wall dive - briefly distracted mid-flight by his own reflection, he misjudged his target and crashed into to the ground, landing awkwardly on his own claw, puncturing his heart. Good riddance, you cheap son of a bitch.

[KrsJin]

I'm pleased. He definitely does look goofy, but as my friend Halfro mentioned, in a good way.

[Henaki]

he looks like a mexican marshall law.

[goodm0urning]

This dude looks pretty cool. Very Street Fighter.

[Sano]

Looks cool! SRK Latinos represent! LA RAZA! :woot:

That pic in the gallery where Ryu and Ken are tossing hadoukens against one another is pretty awesome. :tup:

[SSJGouKi]

Wow he looks stupid.

uh oh, look out! you'll probably going to get negged now for dissing a capcom fighter. But its okay, you'll only get negged once or twice since you didn't diss MvC2... you say one bad thing about MvC2 you'll get negged 100 folds lol sad sad :wtf:

[The Switcher]

Whatever makes you feel better, buddy.

[woof]

he looks a lot more awesome in the screenshots


best design out of the new chars so far i think

[Antonius]

Looks awesome! Hope he has that classic mexican happy attitude, alá eddie guerrero.

[MAGUS1234]

He looks sweet! He has that super hero swagger

[Mana_boy]

Those pics makes me thinks of that anime Ultimate Muscle.

[Eunos]

Abel remains my favourite of the 3 New Characters thus Far..

I must admit when i first saw the Pics i was abit "Meh", But his growing on me, Looks like he might be fun to use.

Not to be vulgar or anything but this picture looks all sorts of freaky. The soilders leg in the background looks like a turd coming out or el fuerte's butt. On top of that it looks like zangeif is opening his mouth to recieve it. Thats hilarous.

I really like this characters look. I hope he has various commands he can do from that standing on shoulder position.

[shatterstar]

On top of that it looks like zangeif is opening his mouth to recieve it. Thats hilarous.
well,

Zangeif is gay.

...seriously.

Its cool, people cant handle opinions around here.

Rofl!!!

[Jinrai]

OK I think we are pretty much confirmed that the ink effects and dark contrast happen during a focus attacks, what's up with his?That screenshot will be his winquote pose at the end of the match. Compare it to those of the other characters.

[SuckerForDeath]

I like El Fuerte for the most part.

Except for the stars in the rear.

Reminds me of that horrible fad that was around a couple of years where girls would wear sweats and have something stupid on their ass like "princess".

Oh well.

[Dragonite]

^^
yeah those sweat pants/shorts said the fucking stupidest shit. but who cares the whole point of those were to give an excuse to stare at a girls ass. and that's the important part

[Celtics777]

Bad design
But not as badly designed as Ken and Ryu(hulk) in SF4

[10x]

El Fuerte screens posted on IGN yesterday.
http://media.ps3.ign.com/media/142/14211548/imgs_1.html

I'm sorry if these have been posted, please do not get your panties in a bunch.

[Gutter Trash]

they could of selected a better color palettes for El Fuerte.

anyway, SF always has tons of alternate colors to chose from. It is really rare that I select an alternate color. I only do so when the original is of an ugly color.

[The Switcher]

HOLY CRAP that made me laugh hard!

[Dingo]

well,

Zangeif is gay.

...seriously.

And apparantly has some really weird fetishes.

[Katanai]

he looks like a mexican marshall law.

He is Law, that's why he has the mask on.

[Cronopio]

CAN'T UNSEE IT

lol, 2 Wrestlers no cup.

[capcom2d.com]

I really don't like the way his tights look. I was hoping for something a little less snug.

[changuillo]

Mexican wrestlers FTW

He actually looks dumb btw. But well, he seems fun, i´m definitely playing him, I hope he can have awesome wrestling moves like Ramon

[SaBrE]

i think he looks pretty dope. and judging from the pics, hes gonna have a lot of personality. looking forward to it

[FullMetalRoss]

I agree. I really love all the new characters soo much! I can't wait to see how they play, I'll want to use them all.

Edit: Yes I wanted to show off my new dope av in the el fuerte thread.

[kenjiharima]

@ - FullMetalRoss - LOL I love avatar of EL FUERTE.

Reminds me of Raoh VS Toki.

[Nokato]

@ - FullMetalRoss - LOL I love avatar of EL FUERTE.

Reminds me of Raoh VS Toki.

I was just going to reiterate that. I play alot of HNK obviously...

[Nairdas]

Wow, when I first seen his art I thought he looked pretty garbage, but now that I've seen his in game model he looks kinda tight. I don't do grapplers, but he looks like he could be fun.

[The Furious One]

these were up on gamersyde yesterday. Atleast it looks like he has a sense of humour. ;)

[dbycrash]

maybe capcom will work in a side-story where el fuerte gets addicted to steroids and kills his family, then himself.

[wolf_1]

that would be awesome except for the suicide part.

[Mycah Leonhart]

Looks like my prayers of a straight up Ramon ripoff might be answered.......thank fucking god.

[changuillo]

Looks like my prayers of a straight up Ramon ripoff might be answered.......thank fucking god.

You arent the only one believe me

PD: El fuerte on steroids? that would make him like Tizoc (no way a human can do the things Tizoc does)
