Reminder that the Legend of Chun-Li was worse than the 90's live action SF, they didn't even get M.Bison right

Oh yeah, that was a thing. I'm guessing Capcom was trying to keep the IP relevant during that weird slump between Capcom vs. SNK 2 and Street Fighter IV when they were not making fighting games for a while.

I remember when Game Players got a couple of hate mail for publishing a screenshot of that scene and nobody took them too seriously. If it was some shitrag like Kotaku back then, they would've pandered to them and go on to publish a long-winded editorial about how Chun-Li's shower scene if an affront to everything good and decent the character stood for and how they felt "LITERALLY RAPED" watching the scene.
Well, I'll say this about the Chun-Li shower scene, they'd never do it today.

Imagine spending a billion US dollars to be a loser. Could've watched animu and be one for free.

They'd probably do the contemporary kind of fanservice and have her eat a banana.

They made a live action Tekken movie around the same time as the Chun-Li thing as well. Theres even a sequel.

For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Tuesday
That's still one of the best lines in movies ever, even if it's quoted to death by autistic "nerds".
Another favourite of mine is "If you cross that line I'll give you so many rights you'll beg for a left."

Every major fighting game franchise seems to had been adapted into a movie or anime at some point . It's easier to keep track of the ones that don't have adaptations.

They better start making a live-action Guilty Gear movie. I'm sure the polarized, politically-charged internet movie audience will love a movie about a badass dude killing his waifu for having turned into a batshit crazy monster in power armor. Such symbolism. Much deep.

OK, so I want to tell you something weird that happened in my life. And I think the statute of limitations is up. I used to work for a boring government agency. They weren't funded very well and they had lots of old junk laying around in closets and shelves. I remember one time I found a quaint digital camera that used 3½" floppys!

But one day I snoop around and I find the most random thing-- a Philips CDi. This was shortly after AVGN did his video, and I had just learned about these things. So yeah, I made off with it. It had been just sitting there collecting dust and they probably would have thrown it away anyways.

But I am still puzzled as to why the Feds would have such a thing in the first place. Any ideas?
