Thanks for sticking around everyone. This was a long one but I'm very happy with the finished product. Special thanks to everyone who left kind words on the last community post, I appreciate it. Sucked not to have a video out last week but this just took way longer than I expected. By the way, this is what I was doing during the SF6 beta weekend. Learning Mephisto combos and Armored Spider-Man infinites. AND I'M GLAD!!!!! Mwuhahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaa.
Akuma also has a Cyber Akuma/Mech Gouki costume in Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3. And Dark Sakura is actually a "joke" character called Sunburned Sakura. The joke is that she got a really bad sunburn one day and it made her harness the Satsui no Hadou...
Funny thing is, Dark Sakura kind of lives on in the mainline Street Fighter canon - Sakura's basically fully aware of Dark Sakura's existence inside her in Alpha 3 (specifically when she beats Akuma, M. Bison, and Ryu), and the Sakura Ganbaru manga (which is basically the prologue to Sakura's Alpha 2 story) has Sakura tapping in and out of it for brief periods in the first volume (sort of like False Super Saiyan in a sense - it's Dark Sakura, but not exactly Dark Sakura).
If SFV Puts the Alternate Secret Characters as Umplayable Boss, I want a New Version of Dark Sakura with a Hole in her Belly, Red Hair, & Demon Horns like an Amalgam of Evil Ryu's SF4 & 5 Apprance.
Some interesting lore things worth mentioning: Cyber-Akuma is basically a "What If?" where Akuma became one of the Four Horsemen, who are cybernetically enhanced servants of Apocalypse. US Agent is not Steve Rogers, but a different man named John Walker who was given the title of Captain America before changing over to US Agent, where he sports the black outfit to reflect his antiheroic nature; this one is probably more well-known since this was a core plot thread in "The Falcon and The Winter Soldier." Mephisto is Blackheart's father, having created him from the evil energy in Christ's Crown, New York, hence why he's essentially a Blackheart pallette.

The hidden characters on the SF side had some silly backgrounds too (with unique winquotes and endings in the JP version, which I’m glad you used for a bit of context). Dark Sakura parodies Akuma and embraces the Satsui no Hado out of nowhere… just because of a wicked tan job (her JP title is Sunburnt Sakura). Mech Zangief is apparently the result of our big red comrade converted into a cyborg by Shadaloo and his ending has him go on a journey in an attempt to undo this (which explains why he can transform in-between forms in later games). The player version of Shadow Charlie has broken free of Bison’s control (I found out later that this premise is one big Kamen Rider shout-out), but he ran out of power in his ending and wounds up getting recaptured and permanently enslaved.
I remember Cyber-Gouki being incredibly hard in the PS1 version, because of the lack of tag team. You could only defeat him with one character in two rounds and he still did a lot of damage like in the arcade, where you could switch beetwen characters.
MSH V SF is probably my best in the capcom vs series. I know a lot of people talk about MVC2 as being the best but for me, it was this one. It was sooo much better than MVC1 too. I didn't like the PS1 version of MSH V SF though.
On Saturn and PS1 you can pick any of the arcade secret characters by simply holding start/select over the appropriate character box then press a punch or kick button.
I hate how USAgent has nothing different from Captain America gameplay-wise, he's literally "dude imagine two captain americas on your team that would be wild lmao"
Same with armored spiderman tho right? I mean they both look cool sure, but that could've just been a different outfit, not a whole ass secret character

I really loved the announcer announcing the names of the super move finishes in this game. It’s nerdy but it was quite refreshing and I never got over it. I was disappointed that MvC1 opted to put the names up but just say, “Hyper combo finish,” or something. The announcer was buffed in this game from XvSF only to get nerfed later. Also, the music in the game has some of Capcom’s best tracks EVER.
Insane production work here, learning the combos and the actual vid, and the editing. Run out of ways to compliment the editing, the worst thing i can say about it is that it's world class.
@@WRILLI4M They probably felt adding her to this game as a headswap character with a slightly different palette would've disappointed readers of the manga Karin came from (I forget the name) expecting her to have some unique moves rather than just Sakura with a different head and palette.
This was heavy on the nostalgia! Had to laugh and shed a tear of joy watching Armored Spider-Man. I would always do his 3 taunts in a row. "Hey!" "Come on!" "Do your job!" 😂❤
Just another outstanding video… The depth of knowledge, volume of research, and demonstration of love for this genre is genuinely second to none. Thanks!!
Mephisto was supposed to appear as one of Blackheart's Hyper Combos too: he was going to grab the enemy, then breathe fire against it for big damage. It went unused, though. Always good to see combos and fighting game info from you!
I am 90% sure mvc3 did cyber akuma before sfv did, but it's technically the same series as MSHvSF so I guess it doesn't count. Also vid is godlike, worth the wait.
I recently bought my 48th copy of UMvC3 on steam because of the new camera tools that were released. Unfortunately it crashes whenever I go full screen, which is very upsetting. You're absolutely right though! I was careful to say 'he would reappear' rather than 'he would next appear' because I know how knowledgeable my viewers are, haha.
Holy moly I loveeeeed this video! I love random trivia. Grew up to this game so love learning some cool new things! You got a new fan! Keep up the good work
I think it took until this year to realize that cyber Akuma was a weird Riff on Mazinger Z. He's got the Scrander and the rocket punch. Also Shadow's story is basically Kamen Rider 1.

Another awesome vid. I appreciate your series showing off the various hidden characters from Capcom fighters... I always wondered how some of these were actually different. I do love how Capcom reference some of these in later games (Shadow and Mech Zangief especially)
desk, sou fã do seu canal, vc sempre faz vídeos com grandes referências aos quadrinhos, referência a outros jogos, combos , infinitos, e curiosidades dos personagens, o seu trabalho é incrível e com muita qualidade, sucesso irmão !!
Missing a whole "original" character (!), and how you turn mecha zangief red. Probably more, but those were the 2 things that immediately caught my attention.
Absolutely awesome video as usual Desk! Loving your uploads. One thing about US agent is that his win quotes are much more "meaner" than Captain America! They're pretty funny.
I spent a lot of my teengage years playing the psx ports of these amazing games, and I wish the arcade versions had the super cancelling into supers, as well as special moves into supers. I am sure this would've broken the games even more haha. My friend and I used to lower the damage as much as possible because we knew default damage was too damn high for all the bars you could easily get from regular play. Thanks a lot for posting these Desk, this brought back very fond memories
US Agent isnt a complete palette swap of capt There are frame differences to his moves, so he can do unique combos which arent accessible to capt and vice versa
Gambit's theme from XvsSF is really bringing out the nostalgia in me being a kid playing these games during the 90s' at the arcades or at home with my friends getting my a$$ handed to me since I sucked at these games lol I wasn't the fighting game guy, I was the RPG guy
Special shout outs to both the awesome secret character theme that plays when fighting one of them, and to Final Mission as a super. I seriously wish Final Mission were used more often in Capcom fighters.
@@LostChildOfTime I also think that some of the versions of and song choices in this game are among the best the characters ever had. Spiderman's theme has this emotional sting to it I can't really describe in words, Ken's theme is wholly unique, and the aforementioned secret character theme are just a few examples off the top of my head.
The most underrated entry in the Vs. series. Still a cool game with an awesome soundtrack, and Cyber Akuma is one of the most badass fighting game bosses ever.
I was a huge fan of Charlie/Nash back in the Alpha games so naturally Shadow was my favorite secret character. I certainly never managed any combos as impressive as the ones you showed here though. 😆 I liked that they referenced him in the Udon comics too--iirc when he's brainwashed by Shadaloo he fights Bison while using the codename Agent Shadow.
10:43 I believe it’s in MSHvSF, but if you rotate the stick like mad during the toss after the “ATOMIC!”, Zangief turns red and you get MORE damage out of the move. Or it may just be a visual representation of the hype you can give the big canonically gay Russian man :)
This is probably the game that I played the most out of the entire VS series. I absolutely loved loved the PSX version, mech zangief was probably my favourite secret character.
The year was 1997. On my college campus, the internet was not very accessible--in fact, relatively brand new to the campus, available on only like three computers in the library, for a limited time, signed in and out. One day I found a Brazilian website that had the directions to unlock the secret characters in MSH vs. SF. The scarcity of the internet and the Portuguese instructions meant I was one of the few--if any--that could unlock the secret characters (well, that and I kept the knowledge only to myself). Mecha-Zangief soon became my character of choice. Of course he couldn't block, but he couldn't be knocked down. Other players at school would soon come to fear playing against me, because I was unstoppable, making short work of all opponents who tried their best to stay away from Mecha-Zangief, to no avail. And throwing everything they had against him just built up the super-meter faster. Final Atomic Busters got served up on the regular.
01:04 there is an error, because Cyber Akuma does not appear after 24 years, in Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 a Cyber Akuma suit appears as downloadable it is used by Akuma it would be then 14 years later it did not appear in video games no 24

If this was the top 8 list, I was thinking that Norimaro would be number one. But then again, Shadow should've been number one to me on this list.😁
Loved every minute of it.
Akuma also has a Cyber Akuma/Mech Gouki costume in Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3.
And Dark Sakura is actually a "joke" character called Sunburned Sakura. The joke is that she got a really bad sunburn one day and it made her harness the Satsui no Hadou...
If they put Dark Sakura in SF6 as an Unplayable Hidden Boss, They should Rename her to "Taiyo".
Funny thing is, Dark Sakura kind of lives on in the mainline Street Fighter canon - Sakura's basically fully aware of Dark Sakura's existence inside her in Alpha 3 (specifically when she beats Akuma, M. Bison, and Ryu), and the Sakura Ganbaru manga (which is basically the prologue to Sakura's Alpha 2 story) has Sakura tapping in and out of it for brief periods in the first volume (sort of like False Super Saiyan in a sense - it's Dark Sakura, but not exactly Dark Sakura).

Some interesting lore things worth mentioning:
Cyber-Akuma is basically a "What If?" where Akuma became one of the Four Horsemen, who are cybernetically enhanced servants of Apocalypse.
US Agent is not Steve Rogers, but a different man named John Walker who was given the title of Captain America before changing over to US Agent, where he sports the black outfit to reflect his antiheroic nature; this one is probably more well-known since this was a core plot thread in "The Falcon and The Winter Soldier."
Mephisto is Blackheart's father, having created him from the evil energy in Christ's Crown, New York, hence why he's essentially a Blackheart pallette.
The USAgent costume used to belong to belong to Steve Rogers when he became disillusioned with America and went by The Captain
Why didn't you mention Mecha Zangief?

As a child I have beaten him only once on the PS1 at the lowest difficult and cheesing with Bison on Easy mode to spam the head press and punch fall
Capcom think they're slick. They took the transformation of the main character from Onimusha 3 and gave it to Akuma.
I could only beat him with Spidey
As a Sakura main in MvC2, I’m glad to see her get some attention from the game she debuted in. Thanks for the hard work, desk!
I too main sakura in one of my low tier teams, she's sneakily good in that one.

Damn 24yrs later, Desk knows how to make a guy feel old as shit.
01:04 there is an error, because Cyber Akuma does not appear after 24 years, in Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 a Cyber Akuma suit appears as downloadable it is used by Akuma it would be then 14 years later it did not appear in video games no 24
Wait hold on, didn't Mech-Gouki make an appearence as a costume in UMvC3?
Wasn’t Cyber Akuma also a costume in Marvel vs Capcom 3?
Awesome video. I use to play this at the arcade alot 20 something yrs ago
Not using the secret character theme from the game these characters are from is such a missed opportunity
Wheres the gold war machine
And the red venom
Do you have a video kn the Easter eggs in these games?
