Let's Dress Up Chun-Li
Posted by Brian Ashcraft at 6:00 PM on July 1, 2008
As we previously posted, the Japanese arcade version of Street Fighter IV will feature Taito's NESYS Card System to save and track data — plus a mobile phone site, too. During arcade play, players can win and save "Battle Points" on their NESYS Card. The Battle Points are weighted, so, for example, if you defeat a player with a high ranking, you'll get more Battle Points. Besides BP, players can also earn "zeny" when winning and then take that saved zeny to the SFIV cell phone "Zeny Shop" where players can purchase outfits and different coloured costumes like Chun-Li's new threads (pictured). What's more, players are able to receive a stamp at the mobile phone contents shop (one stamp a day), and those stamps can be traded for ringtones, ring voices and mobile phone pics at the "Stamp Shop".

Thank god.
I was so worried everyone would be stuck with a 10+ year old design for their costume.
Seriously, everyone looks exactly the same :\
Terance!

This all sounds a bit Tekken 5-ish to me...
Seriously though, Chun Li's clearly on Popeye-grade steroids. Man Hands and Horse Legs, it almost feels NSFW.

Natural body. Nice.
Man hands. WTF? Is Chun-Li a post-op? (Yes, I know it's old.)
It's not the legs that get me. In fact, I dig them. It's those hands. They're bigger than mine!

I really don't the look of Street Fighter in 3D. The character models just look generic and Ryu's facial damage is really creepy looking and Chun-Li has freaky horse legs!
... I'm gonna have nightmares tonight.

The lack of stockings kind of accentuates the disturbing size of her calves. I'll stick with the classic costume, thanks.

Where's MY Call of Duty 4 stamp card with 15 possible stamps (limit 1 per day, available at all FINER retailers) gets you a REAL Spetsnaz or Green Buret (sent via air-mail, may take 6-8 weeks for delivery, not responsible for damaged or destroyed property due to proper or improper care of prize)
Every 100 kills online gets you a 'limited' edition C90-CR piece in the mail. Collect all five pieces and be the biggest bad ass at your friend's fourth of July party?

@Scuba Steve: Zenny (also romanized as Zeni or Zeny) is one of the more common fictional currencies used in Japan. Gil is also sometimes used outside of FF games, for what it's worth.

Well, Chun Li's rocking a great pair of legs, if you ask me.
It's just the hands... man, wish they had gone with that style DC likes to use in animations (only, with a reasonable amount of the things this new SF has). Then that would've been hot. And awesome.

I approve of this costume.
Chun-Li's thighs shaped my . . . I like hips and thighs.
very nice.
Also, I'm jealous of the cell phone integration that America surely won't have. But should. Because if we don't start getting and doing these sort of things on American carriers, cell phone gaming and tech is just going to remain an awkward footnote in the world of gaming (beyond the profits).

Why is everyone so hung-up on Chung Li's thighs. She's known for her powerful KICKS. That means that she's going to have a bit more legs that are a bit more muscular than the average woman's. It makes sense. Would you guys rather her legs to be scrawny.

@Zerbrechen: No, it's her arms, dude. They are way too muscular. If you want her to look good and proper and still be called "Thunder Thighs", she needs ladylike arms and torso while her thighs are monstrously huge. Simple! But noooooo. SFIV: Chun-Li Is Actually A Body-Builder!

Aw, you guys are just intimidated by a strong woman. I've had a crush on Chun-Li and her thighs since Street Fighter II, and it won't be ending anytime soon. I might even get her tattooed on her arm.
In other news, I'm starting a petition for them to not choose Kristin Kreuk as Chun-Li for the Street Fighter movie since her thighs aren't thick enough. Any takers?
