I like how people are calling him super complicated, when in the SF scene, Ryu is kind of the easiest guy to learn. (Still powerful though) He's probably going to be a great character for those who've stuck with him throughout all his iterations.
I always was so bad at fighting games. I guess I never really practiced all that much but I always was baffled by how people got consistent inputs. I always felt lost when I would play somebody else. I would win sometimes but when I would I never really would understand why. Most of the time it was luck.
Jordan Nguyen I don't think it's as complicated as it looks. it differs a bit from Street fighter, but he was always a simple character to use. I played the genesis/super nintendo Street Fighter 2 a lot as a child, something like 15-20 years later I tried Street Fighter 3 and it was ingrained in my muscle memory
Sakurai: Hm...can I also borrow Ryu? Capcom: I dunno...how would he work? Sakurai: I'll add in as much of his combo movesets as possible. So...may I? Capcom: SURE-YOU-CAN!!
MrMightymario Clearly, Ryu was not designed to be casual-friendly. At all. Gonna be fun to see how he'll do in competitive play, though. Very curious to see what the really skilled players can do with him.
Wavedashing is not a glitch. It's merely carrying your airdodge momentum onto your landing. People that say it's a glitch have clearly never played the game. Its the physics of the game. L Cancelling is not a glitch. Intended to be left in. SHFFLing is not a glitch. It's just short hopping and L Cancelling. Moonwalking is not a glitch. That's like saying Perfect Pivoting is a glitch.
Everybody's saying that Smash players are going to have trouble with the Street Fighter button inputs. I think both Smash & SF players are going to have some trouble (assuming one has played little to none of the other franchise.) SF players have 4 less buttons to use, so they have to either tap the button or hold the buttons to use their different types of attacks Smash Players have to learn the SF combos and button inputs if they want a strong attack.
AnotherNerdGuy You act like it's one camp of the other. I'm pretty sure there are plenty of Smash players who play SF, and SF players who play Smash. Ryu's moves aren't hard to learn honestly. In fact they are very basic. I've only ever played SF casually but I know how to pull off Ryu's basic combos.
AnotherNerdGuy Understandable. Still Ryu has relatively simple combos. Well Hadouken and Tatsumaki Senpukyaku are simple anyway. Shoryuken I will admit is tricky.
Ryu looks to be one of the most unique characters in Smash. I know that alot of "casual" players are disapointed in this, but like the other characters, Smash creates movesets for characters that fit the franchise they're in (aside Capt. Falcon and Fox). And Ryu is no different. Giving him a move simplified moveset would kinda disappoint a majority of SF fans. And while I enjoy the simplicity of Smash, I think Ryu being in is kind of a nice change of pace. For the competitive side. Besides, isn't Smash 4 suppose to be a game for both casual and competitive players alike? Anyways, Ryu was a character many fans wanted in Smash, so we'll have to respect their choice whether you like him or not. Same applies to Roy and Lucas.
Holly crap, his Perfect Shield is a Parry from SF3, and he can FADC too (Focus Attack Dash Cancel). Being a fellow SF player (mostly a smash player tho), playing Ryu is gonna be ridiculously fun.
tjlnintendo Yes his down Special, Focus Attack in SF4 can be cancelled out, which is called a FADC (Focus Attack Dash Cancel), when performing a Focus Attack, u can cancel the animation by dashing either forward or backwards, mostly used to extend combos, here its performed when u successfully hit the move so that u can perform an attack right after, because if u let the animation go all the way, it will last more time than when you FADC, this u can also do in SF4
tjlnintendo Yup, its his SF3 parry, which in all honesty, in term of how they work, Perfect Shielding in smash is pretty much the same thing as to what a Parry is in SF3, so all they they did was just change the sound effect.
more little things you can do with ryu at close range: if someone attacks and you shield, up b to get some good knockback when you get hit by a counter, INSTANTLY up b to.... counter counter?
Sakura is now god. As a love of Street Fighter and Smash Bros i am absolutely OVERJOYED by this. Mixing the two games in my head is going to be a challenge but my god this is excellent. Combos, focus attack/cancel, command specials, parrying!? Street Fighter/Smash Bros. Hybrid players will wreak havoc on this game xD i'm loving it!
"Representing Tekken" :O "Is Heihachi with a Mii Costume" :I Well. Ryu's in somehow. Me from like 15 years ago would think this was a practical joke and say that "Oh yeah, next you're gonna say Charizard is in it. I know it's fake. You might as well say they put Duck Hunt Dog in there. That's more believable at this point."
Fernando Banda Representative yes. But never as complex as SSBU. The most complex character before the current gen was Olimar. And he sucks. Maaaybe it's the influence of Namco on the game.
As a scrub at video games in general (but especially ones which require me to have these things called "reflexes" and to play mind games with my opponent) who has nostalgic memories of SSB64 but stopped caring for the series as much after serious Melee players made me self-conscious about how much I suck, I was going to make the exact same comment. It's not a series first if the first installment, three installments ago, did it.
I'm excited about Ryu coming in to the Smash Bros series... However, I feel like his input commands give him so much more options and I think he kinda feels OP, maybe even unfitting. I hope I'm wrong though. EDIT: Nevermind, he actually looks balanced. In the trailer, none of his combos are being Directionally Influenced, however, he does seem to be a terror if he's up close to you. I don't mind his down special either, it leaves him vulnerable to a grab.
Daphness Nohansen Hyrule im afraid you will not be wrong...he has so much more options than other characters he is going to outshine everyone... the problem is they are trying to make him as close to a street fighter game and not making him a smash bros ryu... its like adding a killer instinct character into smash with something very close to its intense chain combo mechanics...its going to be op as fuck
Midobatsu I feel he is gonna be strong, but from what I've seen, the combos aren't being dodged or evaded in someway. I think he can combo very well and do devastating things up close, but he'll have a hard time in the air and recovering.
i hope..someone that strong should have weak recovery or air..like little mac..little mac is strong when he is played right but has weak air and recovery... maybe he should have a captain falcon esk recovery or something between the two
THE HYPE IS REAL The amount of effort put into this is unfucking believeable I just can't put my mind around it I NEED A WII U NOW! I NEED SMASH NOW. I CAN NOT CONTAIN MY HYPE!
Tip on how to strike the strongest shoryuken Don't think of it as Down, Forward, Diagonal-Down. Try thinking that there's a little "Z" in the corner. When doing the move, make a small "Z" in the corner with the Circle Pad. Then Press A. *SHORYUKEEN!!*
With down B, if I fully charge it and hit an opponent, I try to double tap the left analog stick to a direction but it doesn't cancel the animation. Am I doing something wrong?
Samir Malik Lol i see what you did there...unless you took it literally then he's referring to Command Specials(like quarter circles) rather than just a direction and B lol
i found ryu tech the original street fighter inputs for special moves can be b reversed so you can b reverse, say, yoga flame, or the more powerfull shoryouken
I always loved Smash Bros. for its simplicity and I was really excited that Ryu made it in, because that meant I could actually play as him without memorizing overly complex button inputs. But now that I've seen this video, I'm really disappointed. I mean, competitive players are obviously going to have a field day with him, but I, as a not so serious player, would have preferred Ryu with simplified button commands.
Kübel350 i agree, they made him way to different than any other character. with way more attack options and ways to handle situations... they made ryu with street fighter mechanics in mind...instead of making ryu with smash bro mechanics... its like bringing a killer instinct character in that has the heavy combo lock mechanics into smash and saying whats the worst that could happen
Yes yes yes!! Finally! I've wanted him ever since I saw Mega Man make it! When he wasn't one of the original locked characters I was disappointed but I knew it! I'm so happy!
Peterson Byrd Giving players the ability to perform special move variations through manual input would have been awesome. I couldn't careless if other game systems have it. If I could perform a regular falcon punch with (b) and a dashing falcon punch with (qrt b) I'd be ecstatic and it would just add more depth and personality to each character
Nameless How so? It'd effectively just be integrating some of the characters custom moves into there vanilla move-set through means of manual commands. With most tech and actual combos being limited in Smash4 it'd be nice to have something that rewards players for mastering characters.
3:56 They got this wrong. It’s actually not a series first. Both Mushroom Kingdom, and Mushroom Kingdom 2 from Melee also changed the music once there was 1 minute left.
Didn't the Mushroom Kingdom II stage in Melee also change music once the timer got to a certain point? I don't think the Street Fighter stage is the first to do it, Sakurai...
I haven't played as him yet, but he's a lot of fun to battle against and is a good show of player skill. I hope he stays along with Lucas, Roy, mewtwo, and corrin. They're all good additions to smash or welcome returning characters.
I was so lazy to learn how to play smash; it's a shame because I have thrown a lot of money for this game to give it a try. I have maybe play SSB like 40 minutes. BUT NOW, with original inputs of SSF 2 for Ryu, I'm gonna finally play this game. I have played a lot on the SNES version during my childhood. Maybe this was the thing I needed to get me into Smash. I'm happy
The theme changing at the near-end of a match is not a series first. The Super Mario Bros. stage from the original Super Smash Brothers on N64 had a theme change when the time runs out.
This just proves that while previous Smash games were a celebration of all things Nintendo, Smash 4 is a celebration of video games. Thank you Nintendo.
If all other characters have the directional input mechanic, that would expand their move sets a great deal. Their Neutral Specials would be executed using the Hadouken command. The Shakunetsu Hadouken command would give their Neutral Specials more power or range or give fire or ice properties. Their Side Specials would be executed using the Tatsumaki command. Their Up Specials would be executed using the Shoryuken command, and a hitbox would be given to Up Specials that otherwise lack a hitbox. Megaman could have this mechanic. Megaman's strong neutral would be Cutman's weapon. His strong Nair would be Quickman's weapon
![I.N "HALLUCINATION" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n5B5q1Hwt_U/mqdefault.jpg)
There are 3 Ryu players:
The casual player who doesn't know or use the combinations.
The player who dominates with the combos.
The Hadoken spammer.
Great Great There has always been Hadoken spammers my son...
Great Great You said everything ;) ryu still my favourite street fighter character
Great Great And then there's the ones who use Hadouken and combos.
I'm the first one
I'm the bottom two
Finally, my experience from playing Street Fighter can carry over to Smash.
oh...... ur going to whip everyone ass.
Bout to be Zero with Ryu
Hannibal bustin thru
Lance Richards lmao what
THREE WHOLE MOVES get more powerful
TylightDark exactly.
I like how people are calling him super complicated, when in the SF scene, Ryu is kind of the easiest guy to learn. (Still powerful though)
He's probably going to be a great character for those who've stuck with him throughout all his iterations.
Really late BUT
Ryu is pretty much the training wheels for fighting game characters
I always was so bad at fighting games. I guess I never really practiced all that much but I always was baffled by how people got consistent inputs. I always felt lost when I would play somebody else. I would win sometimes but when I would I never really would understand why. Most of the time it was luck.
@@nikolasknepper9964 Practice, seriously, and watch RUclips tutorials about stuff you don’t know (or Google). Inputs are just muscle memory
Damn. Looks technical as fuck
dat hat doh
Jordan Nguyen I don't think it's as complicated as it looks. it differs a bit from Street fighter, but he was always a simple character to use.
I played the genesis/super nintendo Street Fighter 2 a lot as a child, something like 15-20 years later I tried Street Fighter 3 and it was ingrained in my muscle memory
Jordan Nguyen looks tech, because you don't play sf
wow Ryu in Smash Bros.? awesome! ! and his stage music from Street Fighter 2 is there too? Daaaamn! epic
Jordan Nguyen 100th like ur welcome,
Sakurai: Hm...can I also borrow Ryu?
Capcom: I dunno...how would he work?

Kacper Cicharski Ahhh, my mistake

Gonna be fun to see how he'll do in competitive play, though. Very curious to see what the really skilled players can do with him.
While the noobs will want to use him
Raymond Pham they´ll try ...
and fail
M interested to see his place in the tier list. I feel hell at LEAST be tier A+ or S by looking at him so far
Laggalot101 O.O could you imagine Daigo appearing in a smash bros tournament? xD
You guys have no idea how happy I am that Ryu's original attack commands made it in.
This is definitely the most complex character in the HISTORY OF SMASH BROS.
Try melee.
Melee have complex gameplay by the bugs and glitches..and l cancel, etc...
(Bayonetta)
"Hold my beer."
Lol. "Melee is complex." sure buddy.
Wavedashing is not a glitch. It's merely carrying your airdodge momentum onto your landing. People that say it's a glitch have clearly never played the game. Its the physics of the game.

Ryu is already much more complex than the entire Smash Bros series.
Melee?
Prodigy CS:GO thats mostly learnt techniques with characters. With Ryu those techniques are actually in the character.
Prodigy CS:GO A bunch of fucking glitches sums up Melee. Also, bad graphics and physics.
@@billcipher779
They're not glitches but exploits.
@Fwuffycodbunny They're exploits because you're not supposed to play with them.
So his Perfect Shield is Parry. Freakin clever.

I know right
James Cook he is the smash melee representation of smash 4 ;D
"he's a man, not a God"
It worries me. Wouldn't it be sadly ironic if the character seen most in the Sm4sh meta game is from another fighting game series entirely?

Especially since I've never played Street Fighter, so I don't know the combos
But it looks fun ^^
***** That's right. Take risks, it can't hurt to try.
Aidan Estwick The worst that can happen is that you spent some dollars for a character you can't really play. But they aren't that expensive.
***** True, but all it takes is practice. I mean, it can't be too bad, right?
Aidan Estwick Well yes. But you could find out that his playstyle isn't something for you.
***** believe me, it's easy to learn. Just go to training and try all the moves. I defeat Diddy at lvl 9 with Ryu
Genius mechanics. Simply genius. Nintendo is really delivering. Maaaybe I should start to trust them again after my massive Wii-disappointment.
Fernando Banda
Representative yes. But never as complex as SSBU. The most complex character before the current gen was Olimar. And he sucks.
Maaaybe it's the influence of Namco on the game.

I know, but Ryu is even more complex.

I give you the most slept-on character in Smash Bros
"During battle the music will change when nearing the end of the match. That's new to Smash"
Uhh... Both Mushroom Kingdoms, Mushroom Kingdom II...?
Mushroom Kingdom II used the boss theme.
Well it's still a separate track. If you go to melees sound options.
As a scrub at video games in general (but especially ones which require me to have these things called "reflexes" and to play mind games with my opponent) who has nostalgic memories of SSB64 but stopped caring for the series as much after serious Melee players made me self-conscious about how much I suck, I was going to make the exact same comment. It's not a series first if the first installment, three installments ago, did it.
it's like i'm revisiting my childhood all over again. oh the nostalgia feels.
The sound is beyond fucked for me, it'S really bassy, like listening to it from behind a wall.
From someone who has mastered Ryu in Street Fighter II, I found it easy to make the transition to getting used to him.
I'm excited about Ryu coming in to the Smash Bros series...
However, I feel like his input commands give him so much more options and I think he kinda feels OP, maybe even unfitting. I hope I'm wrong though.
EDIT: Nevermind, he actually looks balanced. In the trailer, none of his combos are being Directionally Influenced, however, he does seem to be a terror if he's up close to you. I don't mind his down special either, it leaves him vulnerable to a grab.
Daphness Nohansen Hyrule im afraid you will not be wrong...he has so much more options than other characters he is going to outshine everyone... the problem is they are trying to make him as close to a street fighter game and not making him a smash bros ryu... its like adding a killer instinct character into smash with something very close to its intense chain combo mechanics...its going to be op as fuck
Midobatsu I feel he is gonna be strong, but from what I've seen, the combos aren't being dodged or evaded in someway. I think he can combo very well and do devastating things up close, but he'll have a hard time in the air and recovering.
i hope..someone that strong should have weak recovery or air..like little mac..little mac is strong when he is played right but has weak air and recovery... maybe he should have a captain falcon esk recovery or something between the two
Daphness Nohansen Hyrule THIS SEEMS FAMILIAR.
Such a unique character in Smash. I love it!
THE HYPE IS REAL
The amount of effort put into this is unfucking believeable I just can't put my mind around it
I NEED A WII U NOW! I NEED SMASH NOW. I CAN NOT CONTAIN MY HYPE!
Tip on how to strike the strongest shoryuken
Don't think of it as Down, Forward, Diagonal-Down. Try thinking that there's a little "Z" in the corner. When doing the move, make a small "Z" in the corner with the Circle Pad. Then Press A.
*SHORYUKEEN!!*
This got recommended to me after Terry
I love the effects on the close final smash
Tourney players be like: no items, Ryu only, Final Destination.
With down B, if I fully charge it and hit an opponent, I try to double tap the left analog stick to a direction but it doesn't cancel the animation.
Am I doing something wrong?
Played properly this is going to be op as fuck -_-
RatchildUK agreed
RatchildUK 1v1 final destination Ryu only! xD sorry Fox
A - Kuma Uh, you do mean the bowser jr skin vs the street fighter correct? xP
RatchildUK better nerf greninja
I have a feeling he is not going to be allowed in tournaments
Thanks GameXplain for the video!! :)
Is it just me or is the audio a bit off?
Omg! They did so fucking well designing him! Great job Sakurai
button inputs in my smash brothers what the fuck?!
They were already in Smash though...
Samir Malik He meant more than "Button + one direction"
Samir Malik Lol i see what you did there...unless you took it literally then he's referring to Command Specials(like quarter circles) rather than just a direction and B lol
Samir Malik are you sure give the examples please?
***** Examples?
Forward + A
Down + A
Up + A
Should I continue onto the B button?
He's going to be difficult to master.
I'll be the first to say it, needs a Guille theme.
Why is this on my recommended? Ryu old news we got terry now 😂😂
Inb4 the noobs call him a "pay2win" character.
i found ryu tech
the original street fighter inputs for special moves can be b reversed
so you can b reverse, say, yoga flame, or the more powerfull shoryouken
Why is the sound so low
at first i thought we didnt really need ryu in smash but now actually looking at his moves and stuff he seems pretty great
I always loved Smash Bros. for its simplicity and I was really excited that Ryu made it in, because that meant I could actually play as him without memorizing overly complex button inputs. But now that I've seen this video, I'm really disappointed. I mean, competitive players are obviously going to have a field day with him, but I, as a not so serious player, would have preferred Ryu with simplified button commands.
Kübel350 He does have them, they just do less damage.
HaxorViper That's my issue with him. It widens the gap between casuals and competitive people, something Sakurai usually tries to avoid.
Kübel350 i agree, they made him way to different than any other character. with way more attack options and ways to handle situations... they made ryu with street fighter mechanics in mind...instead of making ryu with smash bro mechanics... its like bringing a killer instinct character in that has the heavy combo lock mechanics into smash and saying whats the worst that could happen
Kübel350 You realize that you don't have to use those complex commands and can play him with the normal inputs, right?
Jester Jaded No, I don't realize that because it's not true. In order to use stronger versions of Ryu's moves, you have to input those commands.
I remember when people thought these were complicated inputs for smash lol.
Then Terry introduced charge moves and input supers.
Then Kazuya well...
When did Smash become Playstation All-Stars...
my circle pad is broke, and even before it was i did exactly what it says and i still can't use the special moves from street fighter
Here Is New Brawl Meta Knight :RYU GO Rank SSS
His Moves look Epic!
well, this Asian guy knows his shit well.
Ryu going to be one hell of a character.
Can't wait to see all the noobs who never played a street fighter game fail at using him.
Want see my replays? lol
Yes yes yes!! Finally! I've wanted him ever since I saw Mega Man make it! When he wasn't one of the original locked characters I was disappointed but I knew it! I'm so happy!
THIS IS HOW ALL SMASH BROS CHARACTERS SHOULD OF BEEN MADE!!!!!
Smash doesn't need to copy off other games for stuff like that.
Peterson Byrd Giving players the ability to perform special move variations through manual input would have been awesome. I couldn't careless if other game systems have it. If I could perform a regular falcon punch with (b) and a dashing falcon punch with (qrt b) I'd be ecstatic and it would just add more depth and personality to each character
***** that completely eliminates the purpose of smash.
Nameless Excatly and I don't think haveing a Falcon Punch rushing at you would feel right.
Nameless How so? It'd effectively just be integrating some of the characters custom moves into there vanilla move-set through means of manual commands.
With most tech and actual combos being limited in Smash4 it'd be nice to have something that rewards players for mastering characters.
i see nobody has noticed ryu's d-air spike sends people diagonally, ryu gonna be spiking folks without leaving the field
Ryu>Roy
That's interesting. They didn't just put the character in the game, but tried to incorporate the gameplay along, rewarding you for using it. Nice.
Banned.
3:56 They got this wrong. It’s actually not a series first. Both Mushroom Kingdom, and Mushroom Kingdom 2 from Melee also changed the music once there was 1 minute left.
i think i just became a nintendo fan all over again
It's awesome that Nintendo actually added the Street Fighter button commands for Ryu.
Now we need a WiiU fight stick.
Thanks for the ryu advice. I needed it.
i love how much effort they put into making characters feel the way they play in their original games. that's also why controlling sonic sucks lol
It's great that I found this because I never knew about the differing attacks.
Wow, this attention to autenticity to the character makes me admire Sakurai and the Smash Bros. Team more than before :)
Oh god, he's so complex.
He's going to be THE competitive fighter.
I can't wait!

Ryu is the master of combos
Ken: Am I a joke to you?
I haven't played as him yet, but he's a lot of fun to battle against and is a good show of player skill. I hope he stays along with Lucas, Roy, mewtwo, and corrin. They're all good additions to smash or welcome returning characters.
I like playing Ryu. Feels nice. Interesting mechanic with his moves, but he's pretty cool.
And I though my only challenge left was online fights.
I was wrong, this moveset is my new challenge.
4:00
Didn't Brawl do that already with the "Pokémon Gym/Evolution" track for Pokémon Stadium 2?
To me, the unexpected depth of ryu and roy hitting other roy negated the leak disappointment.
*Ryu is the best fighter in Smash!*
*His moves are very complex and conserves his Street Fighter II magic*
looks like a very technical character.
I was so lazy to learn how to play smash; it's a shame because I have thrown a lot of money for this game to give it a try. I have maybe play SSB like 40 minutes. BUT NOW, with original inputs of SSF 2 for Ryu, I'm gonna finally play this game. I have played a lot on the SNES version during my childhood. Maybe this was the thing I needed to get me into Smash. I'm happy
The theme changing at the near-end of a match is not a series first. The Super Mario Bros. stage from the original Super Smash Brothers on N64 had a theme change when the time runs out.
My friends make fun of me for maining ryu while one of them mains zero suit and another one mains mii
Imagine if Daigo got into smash because of this.
Smash 4 would get so much publicity in the tournament community.
A smash character with mechanics I'd never thought I'd see the day
Wow you mean to tell me that you can play Ryu like Ryu? That’s really cool.
The Wii Fit Trainer looks terrifying in the illustration.
Wow, this is truly incredible.
This just proves that while previous Smash games were a celebration of all things Nintendo, Smash 4 is a celebration of video games. Thank you Nintendo.
If all other characters have the directional input mechanic, that would expand their move sets a great deal. Their Neutral Specials would be executed using the Hadouken command. The Shakunetsu Hadouken command would give their Neutral Specials more power or range or give fire or ice properties. Their Side Specials would be executed using the Tatsumaki command. Their Up Specials would be executed using the Shoryuken command, and a hitbox would be given to Up Specials that otherwise lack a hitbox.
Megaman could have this mechanic. Megaman's strong neutral would be Cutman's weapon. His strong Nair would be Quickman's weapon
would having a controller w turbo mode be useful for ryu? Like for his jabs/up tilts n stuff
I think this character could be one of the most unique characters in the entire Smash Bros. franchise.
Ryu has to have broken the record for most appearances by any character in a fighting game. He's now even in a game not even made by Capcom.
The moment Zero gets his hands on Ryu, every other smash player is fucked.
Best to remember that Ryu will always face his opponents
4:09 no its not. Ssbm stages mushroom kingdom 1 & 2 both changed when they reached low time..
>Ryu: King of combos
