This is the JP trailer. Bison/Balrog/Vega all switched names while transferring to America. Originally Dictator is Vega/Claw is Balrog/Boxer is Bison. It was changed due to fear that Mike Tyson would sue them for the extreme likeness Boxer (including the name) has towards him
The Japanese voice-acting sounds very cool, but that's because the language is very suitable for this kind of material. The girls of Japanese voice-acting always sound very girlish while the guys sound very (a little exaggerated) "macho".
You guys really need to read up on this game and the ORIGINAL names of the characters before you start saying "Oh this isnt this guy! Thats not his name". Geez. Read. You might learn something.
the names are not wrong. these are the names as they were intended by the makers. the american versions have them "wrong". The whole renaming shenanigan began because M Bison is too close phonetically to Mike Tyson.
WHY does it say vega and show a picture of m.Bison ? anyway this game just rocks no more needs said its fucking awsome and bruce lee for life well fei long same thing anyway anyone wnat a match on xbox live im II Mr Chimp II
because the japanese have the original names. they had to change the names for lega reasons... m.bison = m.tyson... too simila, and he even looks liek the character.
the name Balrog is even spanish. and Vega.. i think thats japanese for something.
there is a philosophy to japanese entertainment; if it's cool, toss it in. it's really that simple -and refreshingly straightforward; not a whole lot of bullshit here, just 'oh that's fun, lets throw it in!'
this is why a lot of japanese entertainment typically doesn't make much sense, but is usually quite entertaining in its own right (catgirls).
the designs for balrog/vega (claw) and vega/m.bison (dictator) use characters from the manga riki-oh (the story of ricky) as a starting point.
claw is a ninja/bullfighter because both skills are interesting and there is a synergy of physical talents. also, if you're a provincial kid who's never heard of bullfighters, at least you have heard of ninjas.
he is a violent antihero because violence and antiheroes are also cool (and common to japanese fiction). he is spanish because spanish bullfighters are the most famous. he yodels because... um... actually i wonder if there is some cultural confusion behind that.
claw follows a common archetype called the 'dangerous man,' revisited in riki-oh. he is wildly unconventional by being totally independent, effete, covetous, bloodthirsty, extremely physically adept, extremely selfish and having virtually no empathy; he is like a sociopath who can feel pain but simply does not regard others except as annoyances and playthings (thus, he's more of a grey character or villain -like the punisher- than a hero). morally he is very ugly, hence he is called balrog.
oshit, sorry, i didn't see the comment you were replying to; that's very interesting, i've also never heard of balrog being a spanish surname. it would be very interesting if this is true.
imho, these alternate names fit so well that i wonder if they were made interchangeable on purpose.
yes i have both the ps3 and 360 version of this game,if its graphics it has to go to the 360 it puts out at 1080p unlike the ps3's 1080i (check backs of the video game box)but to be fare the ps3 has a slight advantage with its d-pad.both consoles have a brilliant arcade stick
You guys are dumb as fuk US fuck up the translation many years ago like when ryu said "u must face shen long to defeat me" it was suppose to be "u must defeat my hadoken to defeat me" and balrog is a miss translation(because they named him after mike Tyson M. Tyson=M.bison look it up u will see) so japan has 100% real names and shit US just fuck up the names and some sayins of fighters.
"If you can't defeat my SHORYUKEN, you won't win" is the Japanese quote. "You must defeat Sheng Long (my Shoryuken) to stand a chance" is the English quote.
And I'm actually happy the Spanish fighter has a SPANISH surname, Boxer has a brutish name, and Dictator's English name is at least somewhat more threatning as a leader.
hey there. can anyone tell me what does Gouki(Akuma) says just before unleash the Ultra Shun Goku Satsu(Raging Demon, Instant Hell Murder), when the four kanji symbols appear ?
Back in the 90s when Street Fighter 2 was created in Japan the boxer was named M. Bison, the Spanish fighter was named Balrog and the final boss was named Vega. When it was shipped to the US the guys over in the States thought that having a boxer named M. Bison sounded to similar to Mike Tyson, so they switched the names around a bit, naming the boxer Balrog, the Spanish fighter Vega and the final boss M. Bison. That's why the US and Japanese names are different from each other.
Another reason that they did that was because Capcom of America thought that Vega was a weakling's name.
Personally I wish they had just changed Boxer's name to something else entirely. This switching of names makes it harder than it needs to be for Japanese and non-Japanese fans to talk about those characters without confusion. Because of this many fans will call them Boxer, Claw and Dictator to avoid confusion.
i agree with you. some parts look eh... and some look real tite. I was kind of hoping they use the same game play style in streetfighter vs snk. but a lil more enhanced. what i would really love is if they make another marvel vs capcom or make a street fighter game that resembles it. i know they got a lot of criticism for keeping SF 2d old school but i never liked those slow 3d fighting games. I'm not that excited about this one but I'll buy it. the specials look awsome, i hope its not slow
wow.. thanks for the long reply lol, i reckon ure right it does look good but if the gameplay is slow, well it will get boring for me pretty quick. i reckon its gonna be one of those games that goes from the £39.99 shelf to the £20 ones quite quickly, probably because it dosent seem that popular :(
If they made it like the VS. games, it wouldn't be SF anymore. Capcom wants to return to what brought lots of people into SF. That's why the game is similar to SF2.
your obviously a new generation street fighter fan that has no knowledge on the history of the characters besides what u are learning from ending game credits and chun li and fei long are brother and sister i bet you didn't even know that ryu mastered the entire whole style of muy thai in ten minutes!
wow your hella stupid metaxzero was i even talking about the game??? i know they were using karate in sf2 for super nintendo but sum of us real sf fans went past the game and learn a lot from all the anime shows comics and movies, after the game they travel the world fighting all sorts of martial artist styles and after ryu and ken wud defeat them they would add that style to their own style they are way past karate they had to adapt to different styles to not get their ass kicked
If you're going to reply like an idiot, actually REPLY instead of talking to yourself like a pussy.
The fact is if it's not backed up in the games or by the creators, it's NOT canon. So you shouldn't go around talking like it is. It's called AU (Alternate Universe). So OFFICIALLY, Ryu and Ken practice an unnamed martial art, Fei and Chun aren't related, and Ryu only knows his signnature martial art and whatever Oro teaches him in SF3.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
that's because ken's mom is japanease from japan and his father's american from san francisco u learn this before they learn there powers on the old street fighter series wen they combine karate and kung fu and make their own style in street fighter 2 v just like fei-longs is chun li's older brother and m bison killed their dad at the dojo i miss that show
Ken is 3/4 Japanese, 1/4 American (his mom is Japanese, his father Japanese-American), so he's probably quite fluent both ways...also, since Ryu's his best friend/rival and they trained together in Japan for so long it's probably his "default" language...
Vega is M. Bison's japanese name while Balrog is Vega's and M. Bison's is Balrog's. U.S. flip things around because M.Bison was a spook of Mike Tison for japan so it was switched.
Looking at this trailer again, calling Claw "Balrog" just seems.......wrong. I can call Boxer "Mike Bison" AND "Balrog", but I'd hate to call Dictator "Vega" and Claw "Balrog".
So no one gets confused and I don't eat up too much space. Using either their Eastern/Western names always leaves someone confused, leading to YET ANOTHER explanation of their names.
Also, Claw, Boxer, and Dictator are the names used when Japanese and American fans mingle (to avoid confusion).
I was raised knowing the characters by their Western names. But if you think about it, the japanese names are more appropriate. A Balrog is a type of demon, and "claw" is certainly insane and demonic. Mike Bison is a parody of Mike Tyson who he superficially resembles. And the name Vega is perfect for the dictator, as it's threatening and mysterious at the same time. That said, I'm no rabid "japanophile", and I'm perfectly content using the switched names.
A balrog is a brutish and muscular demon (like an ogre). Claw doesn't strike most people as an ogre. He's malicious and sadistic, but carries an air of sophistication (something Boxer and balrogs lack). And Vega is a Spanish surname. For me and Capcom USA, Vega just doesn't sound intimidating for Dictator like Bison does. It could kinda fit back in his SF2 look, but after his Alpha revamp (which carries into SF4 here), Vega just sounds "wimpy" for Dictator.
Under the name "Mike Bison", Boxer was a lawsuit liability. So they switched the names of Boxer, Claw, and Dictator around for the US. Also, Capcom USA thought "Vega" was a wimpy name for a dictator.
Cammy's english voice is stellar. Why anyone would keep the Japanese audio for her is beyond me. Why would a British girl speak fractured English? Anyway, I'm a huge fan of this idea. Certain English voices are unbearably bad while certain Japanese voices are ridiculous. Sonicabume?
It's mostly the ignorance of the weeaboo group that lives in the western world. They instantly call all the voices bad when they are not Japanese.
The only reason they are called "bad" is the fact that we know what they are saying. The japanese language gives it somewhat a mysterious feeling. So they call it better in that point. I must go against that though, sure the english version isnt always as good. But the japanese have a much bigger selection of voice actors
and special voice acting schools. Thats just a fact
HOWEVER and read this.
The japanese voice actors are also not that great. They rush things to get voices and stuff. Japanese people are getting irritated by the voices these days and switch over to english voices if they add them. Can you imagine?
No you people cant because you guys are ignorant as hell.
Also, if you think its bad voice acting that the Americans deliver i suggest you go into a small booth and show ur skills. I bet you cant.
Yes we will be able to do that. It even goes further than that. As you can actually change any of the individual characters voice to either english or japanese. Eg. Cammy - English Voice Ryu - Japanese voice
How is it possible that there are STILL people who don't know about the whole name change thing? I mean, it's been that way since the original SF2. You've had like 20 years to find this out.
And are you telling me anyone honestly thinks the official Japanese trailer would have that big a mistake in it?
This is why a lot of serious fighting game fans now just refer to them as Boxer, Dictator and Eyepatch (or whatever), so there's no question who they mean.
As Serpico109 has said, they aren't wrong. The developers had to switch around some of the character names because they feared being sued (I think this is right) by M. Tyson for using M. Bison. So, Vega became M. Bison, Balrog became Vega, and M. Bison became Balrog. A little advice? You should do a bit more research before making boneheaded comments... SHUT IT!!! :P
I can't wait for this game to come out! If only I had a job...oh well. I'm trying to get the limited edition of SFIV for the PS3 but I still don't have a PS3 yet.
SFIV rocks but I'm also a SNK/KOF loyal too. But I'll always be Semper Fidelis-"Always Faithful" to fighting games forever.
Wait which megatron G-1 voice actor and which one english or japanese if it's the live action movie Hugo Weaving would make a great english voice for akuma
Agreed. Up until Akuma's English voice was heard, everyone was either decent/eh (Ryu, Ken, Chun Li) just fitting (Boxer, Abel) or good (Cammy, C. Viper). But Akuma......:/
in the japanese version of streetfighter Balrog is M. Bison (think 'M. Tyson'- Mike Tyson), Vega is Balrog, and M. Bison is Vega. These were the original names. When the game came to America the names were changed.
everything is more epic in japanese

Vega is M. Bison's japanese name while Balrog is Vega's and M. Bison's is Balrog's. U.S. flip things around because M.Bison was a spook of Mike Tison for japan so it was switched.

Looking at this trailer again, calling Claw "Balrog" just seems.......wrong. I can call Boxer "Mike Bison" AND "Balrog", but I'd hate to call Dictator "Vega" and Claw "Balrog".
metaXzero 3 years ago
why do you call them Dictator, claw and Boxer?
Why not call them by there names, the Western ones.
Daandude1 3 years ago
So no one gets confused and I don't eat up too much space. Using either their Eastern/Western names always leaves someone confused, leading to YET ANOTHER explanation of their names.
Also, Claw, Boxer, and Dictator are the names used when Japanese and American fans mingle (to avoid confusion).
metaXzero 3 years ago
heh makes sense. It didnt really cross my mind to give them complete different names.
Daandude1 3 years ago
I was raised knowing the characters by their Western names. But if you think about it, the japanese names are more appropriate. A Balrog is a type of demon, and "claw" is certainly insane and demonic. Mike Bison is a parody of Mike Tyson who he superficially resembles. And the name Vega is perfect for the dictator, as it's threatening and mysterious at the same time. That said, I'm no rabid "japanophile", and I'm perfectly content using the switched names.

A balrog is a brutish and muscular demon (like an ogre). Claw doesn't strike most people as an ogre. He's malicious and sadistic, but carries an air of sophistication (something Boxer and balrogs lack). And Vega is a Spanish surname. For me and Capcom USA, Vega just doesn't sound intimidating for Dictator like Bison does. It could kinda fit back in his SF2 look, but after his Alpha revamp (which carries into SF4 here), Vega just sounds "wimpy" for Dictator.
I can however call Boxer "M. Bison"

its been like that for years now man. Japanese named them but for sum odd reason the USA version names them differently.
lol ive been pissed since the 90s and they still have them names all jumbled up.
uziriderrush 3 years ago
Under the name "Mike Bison", Boxer was a lawsuit liability. So they switched the names of Boxer, Claw, and Dictator around for the US. Also, Capcom USA thought "Vega" was a wimpy name for a dictator.

Cammy's english voice is stellar. Why anyone would keep the Japanese audio for her is beyond me. Why would a British girl speak fractured English? Anyway, I'm a huge fan of this idea. Certain English voices are unbearably bad while certain Japanese voices are ridiculous. Sonicabume?

Bunch of crazed Japanophiles will ALWAYS hail Japanese voicing as superior to English voicing. No matter how much they butcher English lol
metaXzero 3 years ago 2
It's mostly the ignorance of the weeaboo group that lives in the western world. They instantly call all the voices bad when they are not Japanese.
The only reason they are called "bad" is the fact that we know what they are saying. The japanese language gives it somewhat a mysterious feeling. So they call it better in that point. I must go against that though, sure the english version isnt always as good. But the japanese have a much bigger selection of voice actors
Daandude1 3 years ago
and special voice acting schools. Thats just a fact
HOWEVER and read this.
The japanese voice actors are also not that great. They rush things to get voices and stuff. Japanese people are getting irritated by the voices these days and switch over to english voices if they add them. Can you imagine?
No you people cant because you guys are ignorant as hell.
Also, if you think its bad voice acting that the Americans deliver i suggest you go into a small booth and show ur skills. I bet you cant.

Outside Japan they changed the names around since Mike Bison for Balrog would sounded to much like the famous boxer Mike Tyson.
In japan;
M.Bison = Vega
Vega = Balrog
Balrog = M.Bison

How is it possible that there are STILL people who don't know about the whole name change thing? I mean, it's been that way since the original SF2. You've had like 20 years to find this out.
And are you telling me anyone honestly thinks the official Japanese trailer would have that big a mistake in it?
This is why a lot of serious fighting game fans now just refer to them as Boxer, Dictator and Eyepatch (or whatever), so there's no question who they mean.

Serpico109 3 years ago
As Serpico109 has said, they aren't wrong. The developers had to switch around some of the character names because they feared being sued (I think this is right) by M. Tyson for using M. Bison. So, Vega became M. Bison, Balrog became Vega, and M. Bison became Balrog. A little advice? You should do a bit more research before making boneheaded comments... SHUT IT!!! :P

in the japanese version of streetfighter Balrog is M. Bison (think 'M. Tyson'- Mike Tyson), Vega is Balrog, and M. Bison is Vega. These were the original names. When the game came to America the names were changed.
