Shit... I think I can then conclude MUGEN as a bad source for an accurate idea of characters...
Might just have been my interaction with MVC2 that got that mixup.
Let me list what I've got in MUGEN as far as Street Fighter goes (along with any chars I don't have but know of) and see what's what:
Ryu
Ken
Gouken
Guile
Chun-Li
Sakura
Dan
E-Honda
Charlie
Rose
Guy
Sean
Ibuki
Makoto
Blanka
Deejay
Karin
Yuri
Yun
Cammy
Remy
Juni
Juri
Elena
Gen
Q
Dhalsim
Dudley
Alex
Birdie
Fei-Long
T. Hawk
Hugo [Unknowned]
Poison
Akuma (& Shin Akuma)
Evil Ryu
Sodom
Rolent
Cody
Twelve
Necro
Zangief
Balrog
Sagat
Vega (Probably different translation)
M Bison
I count 46. Which ones aren't legit?

Mugen has characters from all the street fighters.
Poison is not an official fighting character, she's the manager of Hugo and despite having a sprite, never fights within the game. List is also missing some characters.

Yeah, I'm not exactly an expert on the series. Only character I've done research into was Akuma.
Still though, you see what I mean? How Street Fighter is established as a very diverse populus of characters?

So is King of Fighters/Fatal Fury, but XII is only gonna have 20 characters + whatevers added in for the console port (2 atleast). The point is that whenever they put out a street fighter, it was generally a new character or a character from a different franchise (Alpha contained many characters from Final Fight). That builds up after awhile. This game was suppossed to be a return to roots, which is why it's all the SF2 characters, basically. I could have gone for something like 3 and have mostly new characters.

Maybe, maybe.
I think Street Fighter's animation style-- the very cartoonish, yet graceful pixel art-- is kind of what keeps me with it and MVC. I never really got the same enjoyment out of KoF or FF.
That's one of the main reasons why I wanted to get the HD remix of SF2 turbo (I think), but with the only available testing in trial mode as local splitscreen, I was fucked out of seeing its gameplay worth myself. Sucked balls, man.

I have always sucked at fighting games except soul caliber (ur?) and marvel vs capcom.

And I feel you, man. The only one I've ever 'excelled' in is Tekken.

Get MUGEN. It's a bit of work to get it considerably intricate but at the same time, you can get basically as many fighters from whatever games as it pleases you.

This is the fucking saddest street fighter thread I've ever read.
