Revival of the Funny Names

Recommended Posts

I knew about street fighter but the game I'm thinking of was even before that. He was a ninja dude that had to run along from left to right. He was alone, jumping from walkways and stuff.....frick this was from the mid 80's maybe....I can't remember much about the game though.

Street fighter 1 came out before Snes.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryu

It was ninja gaiden.

I always thought Ryu as translated to english as "Way", this dragont thing i think is not real.

It is normaly used in MA, do say style, Like GoJu-Ryu...

Anyway:

(流, literally "flow", with the derived meaning of "mainstream"), or ryūha (流派, literally "mainstream school (of thought)"), is a Japanese word referring to a school of thought in any discipline. In English, the word is frequently used to refer to schools of Japanese martial art, although it can also be found used in other disciplines (for example Nihonkoryu and Sogetsu-ryu in ikebana, Kanteiryū in calligraphy, etc.).

In the original Japanese, ryū and ryūha are synonymous, with ha (originally meaning "tributary") being a smaller division than ryū (originally meaning "body of water").

Ryū is also often translated as "style" (style of martial art, style of calligraphy, style of cooking, etc.).

Lots and lots of games have used Ryu as a character

Ryu from the Street Fighter series.

Ryu Hayabusa from the Ninja Gaiden series (Later the DOA series as well.)

Ryu was the name of the protagonist in all of the Breath of Fire games by capcom.

The Shirai Ryu was Sub Zero's ninja clan in the Mortal Kombat series.

Most likely many more as well that I cannot think of right now because I'm too hungry to think.

wine, wine, wine, everyone just changes around names all the time right? Masticus, Cromadus, Kaylith, I actually know a Kaylith, ofcourse thats before the new Imm's came about, but still. Everyone always changes letters around and joins two words. But, I want you to know it was fun while it lasted, no flame here, Leroy Jenkins!
