The New Challengers - Street Fighter vs Cornellverse

 

What's this?

It's a database containing many, many characters from the most popular fighting game series in the world. You'll also find new promotions, tag teams, relationships, broadcasts, free pictures, and other contributions to deepen the database of choice. Rather than a full, standalone database, this mod is intended as a companion to the Cornellverse. It's built to allow you to pick and choose the components you want to import in order to enhance your play experience.

 

Why do I want this?

If you're a fighting game fan, great! That's reason enough to download and play it.

 

If you're not, this mod still has a lot to offer. You can think of it as a heightened reality version of an MMA mod, providing you a pool of workers from the world of "legitimate" combat sports. Or you can look at it as a source of future workers. The Cornellverse doesn't offer up any new debuts past 2025, where this mod looks to significantly expand that.

 

But why?

It's been two whole Street Fighters since the last time this happened for TEW 2007. Even then, I had ambitions for the project that got away from me and kept me from seeing it through to what I thought its ultimate version would look like.

 

But the canon.

According to the semi-official Capcom canon, Street Fighter II is fixed in 1991. In a truly accurate to the canon mod, that would put Ryu in his fifties in 2020. Since that won't do, I'm shifting the timeline forward thirty years. The World Fighting Championship from Street Fighter II is set to happen in 2021, with that tournament's participants already inhabiting the game world. Characters from future games will debut at a time appropriate to this shifted time frame.

 

Other concessions might need to be made down the road, and will be documented in this post.

 

This is where the download link will go when there's a thing to download

I was intrigued at first and then Saturday Night Slam Masters sold me completely

The cast of 1987's Street Fighter has been added to the database.

<span style="font-size:18px;"><strong>Mike</strong></span></p><p><strong>

Not to be confused with other ex-con boxers who may or may not be named Mike</strong></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p>

Mike is an ex-con who learned to box while in prison for robbery. Since his release Mike has committed to turning his life around and giving back to his community. Mike dedicates a portion of his income to charity and teaches boxing to children during his downtime. In 2017 Mike took part in the World Fighting Championship, but he didn't make it far in the tournament.</p><p> </p><p>

A gifted boxer with some amount of name value in the United States, Mike could bring good value to a professional wrestling promotion looking to gain some legitimacy.</p>
