For fans of Street Fighter

This has inspired me, it shows me that you don't need original character designs to make a popular game.

First, obvious ones.





But these are awesome

SFII's psychopathic Spanish bullfighter Balrog (aka Vega in the Western World) hates his ugly father who killed his beautiful mother.
Dio [Pictured in my avatar] of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure hates his father who talks bad about his dead mother and who Dio says, has worked his mother to death. Both Dio and Balrog are depicted with roses.

Some of those are stretching it a bit.

Esp the fantrace-rework for the gally-cammy one.

Replace Ken with Dan, and you have something.

Antique Bump.

There are two that copy each other.


It might not make sense at first, but just give it a bit.

Shortly after the release of Street Fighter II, rival video game company SNK finished development on, and subsequently released, their own fighting game, Art of Fighting. The principal character of this series, Ryo Sakazaki, bore a resemblance in appearance and name to Ryu, as well as other aesthetic similarities to Ken, wearing an orange gi and sporting blonde hair.

In retaliation, one of Capcom's artist drew an artwork of Sagat holding a defeated opponent by the head during the release of Street Fighter II': Champion Edition. The defeated opponent wore an attire similar to Ryo's: an orange karate gi with a torn black shirt underneath and geta sandals; but had long dark hair tied to a ponytail like Robert Garcia, another character from the Art of Fighting series. This character design would become the basis of Dan, who was introduced as a secret character in Street Fighter Alpha. His fireball is telling: instead of using both hands to unleash his Gadouken (as Ryu and Ken do for the Hadouken), he propels it with one hand, like Ryo, Robert and Yuri do for the Kooh-ken. Dan can also taunt infinitely like the Art of Fighting games, unlike his fellow Street Fighter Alpha characters.
