You must defeat Sheng Long to stand a chance.

[okuz]

ryu's watching dragon ball z too much..

[jkellybrew]

Silly fei long, don't you know that ryu owns at all times?

[Pakalolofree]

Sheng Long is the Shoryuken move that ryu makes in the end of a battle against the computer... when it happens, you must win and the pc gives a chance to defeat..

Try to play against the pc to check this out...

I know, just looks crazy, but it's true..

[GodDeathBringerMK2]

1 didn't defeat Sheng Long to stand a chance

[mikeysaur65]

Ryu's catchphrase could also allude to the Tiger Uppercut that Sagat learned in order to defeat the shoryuken that literally scarred him.

[Tsukiyomaru0]

Sheng Long... Shen Ron... Dragon... Rising Dragon... Shoryuuha... Shoryuken... SHENG LONG IS MOTHERFUCKING KEN!

[Xytos]

why does fei long look like a werewof after you beat him??

[FeiLong2310]

Ok, if Ryu is a student of Sheng Long (Gouken), why should you have to beat the teacher in order to beat the student?

It should be the other way around...

[farplaysgames]

*At an arcade in the 90s*

Ryu: "YOU MUST DEFEAT SHENG LONG TO STAND A CHANCE!"

Player: "Who the fuck is Sheng long?"

[newbcake88]

You must have long shins to stand a chance.

[XxDeViLBrInGeRxX]

Shen long actually meaned Shoryuken, but it was bad translated during the time...

[LPFer]

@XxDeViLBrInGeRxX "meaned" is not a fucking word!!!!!

[Jevgenos]

It looks like a good port of the game... What console is this?

[MDthornton83]

Ryu is obviously talking about his master Gouken. Not Sheng Long, but Gouken. The Sheng Long theory was just a hoax. It's worth mentioning that Gouken is of Japanese decent, and Sheng Long is a Chinese name.

[animestrike32]

OH MY GOSH! It's...

ANGUIRUS!!!

[corgal2]

And so, the confusion begins....

[kenshixhimura22]

Isn't that the dragon they summon in DBZ? I've seen it spelled like that before.

(In Super Turbo HD remix Ryu says "You must defeat my Shoryuken to stand a chance." So I guess it was a translation error back then or you know DBZ)

[Mangko781]

The same Character "龍(Long)" is also used in "飛龍 (Fei Long)", the "flying dragon".

[Mangko781]

The two Chinese characters "昇" and "龍" are pronounced "Sheng" and "Long" in Chinese Mandarin. In Japanese language, they are pronounced "Sho" and "Ryu". The "昇(Sheng)" means "rising". The "龍(Long)" means "dragon".

So "Sheng Long (昇龍)" = "Sho Ryu" = "rising drogon", in Chinese, in Japanese, and in English.

The "Sheng Long Quan (昇龍拳)" = "Sho Ryu Ken" = "Rising Dragon Fist", in Chinese, in Japanese, and in English.

[smokintheblaze]

And by Sheng Long, he means a huge, buff Santa Claus looking MF.

[chubstar666]

sheng long is chinese for dragon punch i think?

[MDthornton83]

@chubstar666 Sheng Long Quan more spesifically. Quan means fist in Chinese Mandarin.

[SirColAmiX]

Long Schlong :D

[razoremblem]

shenlong the mystical dragon :|

[avalonkiller]

Fei Long's defeat portrait is extra ugly.

[TranceCore3]

The japanese version says you must defeat my Shoryuken to stand a chance, or Dragon Punch. The translation failed because Sheng Long is the name of a mythical Dragon, and at the time, they probably meant Ryu was talking about it, instead of his move.

[JOEFIXIT79]

Sheng Long is actually Goken.

[DjWuzHear]

@JOEFIXIT79 not really akuma and gouken were both based off sheng long but they are not the same person

[EminoMeneko]

@JOEFIXIT79 Sheng Long is actually a mistake in translation. The original idea was "You mush defeat my dragon punch to stand a chance'. But the kanji have been read the Chinese fashion (many pronunciation by kanji). Almost every person who likes Street Fighter knows about it. ;)

[Uhajo]

@JOEFIXIT79 no.... that time, it was just missing kanji translation for "shoryuken"

[JOEFIXIT79]

@Uhajo I know...when I was a kid and saw this on the arcade, I said to myself 'Ryu has went insane'.

I told my brother and he was like "WHAT!!" "How can you say beat my master first before you challenge me?".

Lol! I have that EGM issue somewhere around here.

Did you know that in the Street fight 2 world warrior instruction manual Zangief's full name is Mike Haggar Zangief?

Haha! I can't remember which one learned from who. I'm thinking that Zangief said Mike Haggar is his hero. Those 90's.

[omegatux1]

Come on, It´s Very clear, Sheng Long Is Fei Long´s Evil Twin brother

[nasnek]

@omegatux1 meh

[JacopeX]

"YOU MUST DEFEAT MY SHENG LONG....."

[JHAYTOT1]

SHORYUKEN!
