He also notes that the opinions are important to Capcom as the information here will help future games, marketing and licensing.

Below are links to the English and Japanese surveys.

Alex
Twelve
Q
Elena
And for the sake of it - Karin

The 3s cast is by far the most exotic one of the SF series if it comes to design.

I voted for:

1. Cammy (obviously, my girl:))
2. Cody
3. Juri
4. Fei Long
5. Claw

But this poll seems pointless, they just need to put every char. inside and everyone should be happy. And i don't mean via DLC;)

Just vote your favorites! Don't worry about voting somebody just because they probably already have a guaranteed spot in the next game. If they are your one of your favorites, give them some love!

If all of your favorites just happen to be ones that didn't make SF4, then go right on ahead because I feel your pain. My favorites from Tekken as a kid were Kunimitsu, Devil, Michelle, Jun, Alex and we had to wait 12 years for their return.

#123

aridarron said on February 5, 2013 at 2:50 p.m.

they should have asked who would you like to see in the next SF game, not much people played SF1, so they probably don't know lee and retsu and you can't really like a character you never played

my picks were
ryu
juri
seth
charlie
sakura

Cammy, Hakan, Alex, Elena, Abel

Why would anyone waste their votes on Ryu, Ken, or Akuma? They are always going to be in SF games. Everyone should use their votes for characters that don't already have a 100% chance of showing up.

Gouken
Oro
Gen
Dee Jay
Q

#133

Super_Honda said on February 5, 2013 at 2:58 p.m.

Obviously, E Honda for me since he's my main character and also, he didn't make it to SFxT. As for the rest: Dictator (M Bison), Retsu, Gouken and Sagat.

SnakeX said on February 5, 2013 at 3:03 p.m.

Can't wait for the results to have all the shotos at the top, followed by people complaining that the lesser characters never get attention despite Capcom literally asking everyone right now who their favorites are.
You want Karin? VOTE FOR KARIN. And leave Ryu off your list while you're at it. He's not going anywhere.

#139

aftermarketradio said on February 5, 2013 at 3:08 p.m.

I think it's fine for people to vote for Ryu, Ken, Akuma, if they like those characters. If Capcom is going to include those characters no matter what, a vote for them doesn't necessarily push out any of the outlying characters. But I am interested in seeing how well the "core" characters have honestly held up over the past 25 years.

Really hard choice, between the characters I know I like and the one that I would really love to try :/

I picked (tried to chosse only not so-famous characters like Ryu or Guile) :
Cody
Elena
Juri
Ibuki
Poison

With more possibility I would have taken Q, Hugo, Alex, Cammy, Makoto, Dudley, Twelve, etc.

My top 5 have to be:

4)R. Mika
5)Yang

And I don't think this is for a new Street Fighter, but a survey for dlc characters for SSF4 or sfxt

#146

Meety said on February 5, 2013 at 3:11 p.m.

Seriously guys, leave the generic characters alone. We ALWAYS see them in most of the fighting games that Capcom introduces. It's never a surprise.

Too bad Haggar isn't a option though. I know they only listed chars that appeared on a Street Fighter game, but i will be damned if the mayor isn't a LITERAL "street fighter".

Batsu said on February 5, 2013 at 3:47 p.m.

If Ryu is not in your top 5, you don't know what the f**k your talking about. And you're not a true fan of the ENTIRE franchise over the last 20+ years.

Wish you could have rated them from 1-5

Mine

1. Q - Tall guy/robot in a metal mask/robot, trenchcoat and fedora = Epic. Shame we will probably not see him again as Capcom hate him
2. Sagat - Just a bad ass design
3. Rose - Proves that female fighting game character design doesn't need to be the sexy school girl design to sell
4. Alex - Great grappler, felt he could have been epic in SF4 mechanic and game design, shame they wasted the opportunity
5. Makoto - Great traditional fighter with a twist, again like Rose, doesn't have to be a sexy schoolgirl to be a great design
